2 main ways to value Tlou imo:
Value of Resource/ Reserves - yes there is an awful lot of gas in the coal seams. What is needed in irder for an O&G major to offer $100m, $250m, $500m, $1 billion? There is going to be a billion shares in issue within 2-3 years, so make your own assumptions, do your own math. But whoever wants to buy Tlou lock stock and smoking barrel will drive a hard bargain - because Tlou management team are not a team prepared for the long haul in Botswana.
Earnings valuation - let’s assume Tlou was generating $100m EBITDA per annum x 10 or 15 times multiple / shares in issue. Every fund raise and shares issue crucifies our proverbial pot of gold. I did say $100m EBITDA - in 5 years time, 8 or 10 or how many …..
Basically - no get rich quick scheme anymore here. Tidd and MM and Buzzard and someuwin and wheniamfree all killed that golden goose back in 2017/18.
Strap in for at least 3 years, probably 5. Tony will transfer his shares into his kids Family Trust since he won’t see a return. And Smith will still be telling us share price doesn’t matter and shares in issue is just a number
