"Georgina Energy
One of the companies I have met on several occasions has been Georgina Energy, a helium, hydrogen and natural gas company with assets in Western Australia and Northern Territory. This is finally coming to market on July 30, via a £5m reverse takeover with Mining Minerals & Metals (MMM). Apart from celebrating that Georgina is coming to market – we really need as many new listings as possible, one of the points to note is that in the recent past, many of the new listings have done very well indeed. Helix Exploration (HEX) another helium play, Golden Metal Resources (GMET), European Green Transition (EGT) are the obvious ones. I think there is a logical reason for this. In a bull market, which we have not had in small caps since H1 2021. In a bull market investors have plenty of cash, and are happy to throw it around in a cavalier fashion. However, to get them to part with their cash in a bear market CEOs have to come up with compelling offerings. Rome Resources (RMR), focused on high grade tin in DRC, is an imminent RTO example coming to market in the next few days. Georgina is also stacked up for investors.
This is not only because helium, hydrogen, and natural gas are currently hotter than July, but because since it was first mooted to list before the pandemic, the company has moved much further along its timelines. For those joining the party now, much more investment has been put into the company, and the balance now is that it more of a development company than just exploration with sizeable historic data and infrastructure. This means that there is a clear, and quick pathway to production, for a company that aims to be one of the top four global helium and hydrogen producers. Given that the initial market cap of Georgina will not be much more than £10m, the company is clearly leaving plenty of upside on the table when it comes to market, a critical factor in ensuring that its listing will be regarded as a success."
