I Can agree with almost all of that too… except talk of 50-60p..
I had hoped over the last couple of years that any sale of Ensa or Solg as a going concern would achieve north of 50p…. We were never getting anywhere near or over £1…. That was just people dreaming after years of Solgs hyperbole chuff…
But we are where we are now…given we canned the Porvenir PEA just as it was due to be released and had high hopes for… given we shelved the PFS addendum, probably because the financials were not what we hoped for, timed with global economic factors making financing costs more expensive, and given we had to raise recently at such low prices, meaning there will be circa 3 billion shares in existence now.. compared to the 1.7 when BHP arrived… I could go on… given BHP opted to go for Oz… there are many factors pointing to a rather disappointing end to the Solg Cascabel story… but for me the refusal to release our studies recently is a big blow.. My concern is our asset, just isn’t the golden egg for everyone to chase that we all hoped it was.. Osisko and Franco know someone will eventually develop it… but they don’t care how low it is sold for, or how poor any final deal is for Solgs shareholders.. they will make their money.
I do believe Maxit etc don’t give a stuff how low our share price is right now… as any deal struck in the high 20s can be sold as a success…. doubling of the share price at the time… early 30s.. even better achievement. Long termers will be disappointed but the deal makers will spin it as a great achievement given global factors.. and they will get their fees…
Obviously we all had dreams when we repeatedly hit 40p and above… we swallowed all our boards guff because we dared to dream..
I sold a large chunk of my holding on the day the PFS was released, as it came with no plan or finance in place… of course I should have listened to my brain rather than my dreams and exited fully there.. I never for a minute thought we would be sat at 14p post PFS and announcing intentions to monetise.. all be it far too late in the day.
Such a shame.. we really are left just hoping Bob can pull off a deal, to at least exit at a just respectable price, having held for so long…. The lost opportunity cost of sticking here is difficult.
