EUA weekly review10 Feb 2020 10:07
Great morning but might have expected more after weekend here is recap of past week:
1) Monday ACF equity research report values EUA at 54-60p. Covered on Sharetalk available on EUA website
2) Zak Mir says 18p target within 1 month based on charts at end of week (but undersells the fact deal could land any time for asset or shares)
3) Saturday Motley Fool says forget SXX buy EUA now in article
4) Sunday an advisor to CITIC on linkedin and tweeting EUA since at least summer last year says Indaba went very well lots of buzz about PGM and that CITIC (large Chinese investment bank mentioned in our RNS's) have signed an engagement letter with EUA. Mentions on his LinkedIn he's been advising on the sale of a PGM play etc. Seems a credible source and massive as some shorters of this share since October were claiming the banks had never heard of EUA etc. Their incentive being the very big rise in October making it a shorters target but it was a real based on first positive steps towards sale and the palladium deficit/price as well as the mine being fully prepped for the go ahead after years of work.
The other best places to look for info are the EUA website, company RNS, and the Proactive Investors interview with Dmitry, the main man, from around October.
Other key points made are the company is debt free with a cash cushion and next door to Norilisk Nickel, Russia's largest PGM producer with big expansion plans and deep pockets. They have a mining competence with their WK platinum and PGM group mine and the finance in place with Chinese Sinosteel to develop MT the palladium asset but not yet taken (several years option to do so). They have made board appointments with a view to a sale and much due diligence will be done as they represent some potential buyers too. Our BoD have massive skin in the game to align themselves with shareholder objectives.
Sorry if boring just for people checking back in and missing weekend etc. Just a little hard to believe some of the shares that have risen more than us today but we came a long way last week and it's a solid rise at least of often 10 to 30% per day recently. Friday saw a small retrace but nearly get back to level end of day after being down 12% or so.
