...yes, but the company have only told us what they want us/suitors to hear. Everything, is playing out and I still have an inclining that there will be several twists and turns as suitors potentially come back into the fray.
If we are playing hardball then it suits the negotiation to say we are only selling a bit, as we think you aren't offering enough value for the rest. We know we have lots of assets people want, and we can mine them for the most efficient price in the world. We think these assets will increase in value over the coming decades - as will the likely amount taken from the ground. We have massive support from huge investment houses who know how to swing a deal.
So, I am not ruling anything out, until I see that offer.
I accept that we only have the official line of comms from the company, just some scraps really imo. What is going on in the background is anyone's guess - I am a negotiator as part of my career, and I know that you don't always tell the whole truth. You intimate and use data to suit your argument. I do hope Christian writes a book on how the deal moved through and the twists and turns. I think it would be an interesting read!
GL all, whilst nail biting at times, it is also an exciting share to be in.
I really liked this quote from the weekend...“Never give up on a dream just because of the time it will take to accomplish it. The time will pass anyway!” Earl Nightingale.....hoping we are towards the end frame of the passing of time for the EUA deal!
