By May, Chariot will probably be running on fumes. Absent a genuinely transformative breakthrough in the gas business, another capital raise looks inevitable. It’s difficult to see how the current trajectory is sustainable for much longer. The renewables division has made meaningful progress and clearly carries value, but the Moroccan gas strategy has drained the balance sheet.
The data rooms appear to have generated little real momentum. It’s now nine months since Energean handed the assets back — and realistically, the company would have known that outcome was likely well before it became official. Loukos has been searching for a partner for around two and a half years with nothing concrete to show for it. Any financing or JV on Anchois is likely to come on punitive terms, and prolonged delays have already driven heavy dilution. All the while, the cost base remains far too high.
