RE: This is going sky high…the deal I think is close to be announced7 Oct 2023 08:39
I think you are right, owning 100% gives the company flexibility. I don’t see an equity raise, certainly not at these prices, we are currently on the cusp of the notional so a discounted raise isn’t possible any lower than 20p.
Perhaps a packaged bond in the form of a bullet. May be high coupon rate but it would allow the company to pay interest over the period rather than an amortising loan, I feel the repayments would be difficult until production starts.
The best and most probable solution for me would be a partial sale allowing an investor to pick up a percentage of the mine. Glencore is the obvious contender here but what’s to stop them taking the lot…
I stand by my 50p fv
