RE: Will be surprised if they don't increase the WRAP total...22 Sep 2025 12:39
Louise, stupid comments about the recent lows of the share price and extrapolation. If you are even remotely informed on the company, you would know there has been a major institutional shareholder selling off, causing the drop to 6-7p. Once they had completely sold out you saw a jump to 12p. This is the real impact of the Tempus AI announcement before the current raise, or do you want to argue that a $15bn company collaboration massively extending product reach won't be transformative for RENX? That's a collab with a company that would be a mid-table FTSE 100 constituent. And no doubt there's more to come. Not to mention non-US roll-out.
Placing at 9.5p for circa $6m is unfortunate, but not unexpected. Funnily enough, the values are pretty close to what I said they would do if funds are required just a few days ago. Ultimately, it's a good price. It is for a relatively small amount, which I assume they have restricted because they know in 6 months the sp will be considerably higher. And the Directors have committed a pretty decent chunk of cash. I'm unsure how much was needed, versus how much will go to Tempus, but even with a continued cash burn of $800k per month they should have enough total cash to cover at least 9 months of scale up. Tempus AI collab, combined with on-going efforts and another collaboration (or two), and the cash burn may be non-existent in 3-4 months.
As for this week, I expect the share price to stick around the placing price for a few weeks whilst traders from the 7p range decide to chase other rainbows. It's not a lot of shares to get through that would be churned below 10p, as most would be under-water, even at 9.5p. If the sp is near or drops below the placing price in the coming days, then I don't expect it to be oversubscribed. PIs complain a lot about not being offered an opportunity to participate, but then rarely take the full offer when it is presented.
I'd be very surprised if we dip below 9p, and if so it will be snapped up quickly, me included. Once minor churn is done, then I think we will need another announcement as a catalyst to drive past 15p. Not much required and could be as simple as the CEO stating no more fundraises, upgrading 12 & 24 month forecasts, and cashflow +ve in less than 6 months. That's all the market needs to hear for this to churn traders and re-rate again on the back of massive PI interest. I imagine money from IMM and HEMO will start to flow into here, given the significantly better prospects here to double your money in 3 months versus either of those stocks. AIMHO GLA
