RE: FACTS from yesterday's RNS and accounts1 Jul 2025 13:29
Just read the AFR, and mightily relieved to be out of this shambles. I suspect this will crash as soon as it relists. The AFR is not a good read at all. It raises concerns about the truthfulness of GEX, which has been an ongoing issue. Now, I have been warning about a cash raise here for a while, and got shouted down by the likes of Siver, Pompey (same posters?) and a few others. But now the AFR has confirmed that a cash raise is going to be needed for the company to continue operating, never mind drilling. I mean, if they only had £1.2 million by January, then what will they have left as of now? The AFR makes clear that: "We draw attention to Note 2 in the financial statements, which indicates that the group and parent company is at present reliant on the continued support of its directors and lenders, which has been confirmed, as well as the support of other external creditors in not seeking immediate repayment of liabilities due in the ordinary course of business. There is a need to secure further financing in order to continue to progress the exploration projects and to meet its ongoing working capital needs as they fall due."
Secondly, a company that was going to be drilling in December 2024, now announces in June 2025 that it has still NOT lodged all the documentation to DEMIRS. "IF" it gets approval, it will "then" still have to secure drilling contractors and "then" order long lead items. So there is NO WAY they will be drilling any time soon. The longer it takes, the closer they will be to running out of cash, if they haven't already.
Thirdly, everyone should read some of the comments from the auditors in the "Key Audit Matters" - comments in there raising concerns about GEX's calcs and bias.
Somewhat ironically, the best thing that can happen to GEX is that it relists with a capital raise. Might get away with raising at 6p. But if it delays the raise, the share price will likely tank on relisting to new lows, because of the delay to the drilling and the market knowing that it is running out of cash. Which will mean the share price falling further so that the eventual and INEVITABLE raise will be done at an even lower price.
The raise will need to be for a substantial amount. Drilling aint gonna be cheap and then there's working capital and the Mt Winter. All imo and dyor
