Cobus Loots, CEO of Pan African Resources, on delivering sector-leading returns for shareholders. Watch the video here.
The more I've thought about this (and given no RNS this morning, leaving Monday for Jason to get the results published within the week), the more it's looking to me like next week is set up for an orchestrated marketing big bang. Perhaps we've been advised by one of our new big brothers or it's the effect of Vicki's expertise in play? It sounded like they have the test results, they just haven't published them yet (if that's legal?), and are possibly waiting for Monday to kick off the week with "look how great our fuel works", followed by signing MSC contracts "look how great our partners are", leaving the path clear for Bud Darr to bask in the glory next weekend at COP28.
All conjecture based on snippets of course, but all helps to pass the time until we find out!
Can anyone recall at what point of the AGM Jason spoke about when they expected to receive the results? I thought he said within the next week, though having flicked through the recording, I can't find it anywhere. Did he say that's when they expected to receive the results or when they expected to be able to release / publish them?
Did Jason use the term "imminent" in respect of Valkor during the AGM? I remember him using it at some point (recall rolling my eyes), though can't remember if it was on permits, funding or something different altogether. Maybe for once, "imminent" meant "imminent".
...I would like some stonking Aqua Fuels test results by RNS tomorrow morning for the world to read about over their weekend morning coffee, followed by a signed MSC deal on Tuesday, so the PR machine can go into full swing before COP28 at the back end of next week. Please.
...and if I hadn't been fed up with funding the company year on year (to amounts totalling roughly JM's annual salary), then I would have been happy to fund the raise from new money. So I don't think I am a "fickle PI" and the responsibility has to rest somewhat with the company.
The only thing I was in a position to guarantee with any certainty was my allocation going into the company coffers. I sold at a loss and took the hit to give them the cash. If others didn't see the benefit of making a similar "sacrifice", that is their prerogative, though I wasn't in a position to influence that. It can't be proven that I negatively impacted others' choices in taking up the offer, though I do know the company got my cash.
"Don't think this does anything."
Can you explain? It enabled me to take up my allocation and the company to receive the funding, rather than me buying shares in the open market, which the company would have received no money from.
