Acker, the statement made by Hasiba was that there have been "pivotal changes" there have not, the status quo exists. There have been previous engineering reports done by Enprotec, if anyone would know what needs to be fixed it's Enprotec. Why hasn't this new report been shared? They've had it for months, what will the recommended fixes cost?
All GH has done is changed CEO, all the other issues remain with shareholders remaining uninformed of what's needed, what it will cost and how they'll pay for it along with everything else they need to pay for.
As I've previously stated GH has nothing to lose here, he's inherited a mess, if he sorts it out he's a hero, if he doesn't it was beyond repair and he can walk away without any reputational damage and retire.
The ONLY way forward for PREM is funding and they need a whole load of that. Canmax aren't interested in giving them any more money, in fact they want someone else to take on their prepayment debt. The major trading house haven't offered any funding, traditional lenders won't touch Prem. That leaves shareholder dilution. 4 billion or so available shares raises £1 million after costs, nowhere close to what the company has an immediate requirement for. So the only route is another EGM and a call for further authority. Would another 10 billion shares be enough? Probably not, another 20 billion might be enough if the SP stabilises and doesn't drop further, but then there's the prudent approach to have some in hand just in case, so maybe 30 billion will be enough.
Would shareholders vote in favour of possible future dilution to the tune of 20 or 30 billion more shares? Their investments would be decimated
