Stefan Bernstein explains how the EU/Greenland critical raw materials partnership benefits GreenRoc. Watch the full video here.
Always good to see. Hopefully the sp will start to reflect their apparent confidence in the company.
A takeover is unlikely in my opinion. The kind of product they are producing and the work involved is highly complex and given that they've not raised their prices they are still competitively priced and likely to be kept at arms length by those who don't understand what the company does.
I am also happy watching 20% growth pa tick by for a long time to come if they can manage it. In the earnings call they said that the current facilities can manage circa £40M of sales. So expansion isn't necessary at this point. Growth in sales, reducing costs and a well managed company (on AIM!) - can't ask for much more.
Agreed RN1MLT. It’s worth remembering that 20% growth pa is nothing to be sniffed at!
Daniel and David are the slow and steady types. It’s taken three years to sort the company out and put it on the path for growth and profitability. Expansion will happen if they say it will, they’ve delivered on what they have promised so far.
They are also capable and clearly know what they are doing. However the company has achieved profitability for the first time, it will now have to do so again to show it’s not a one off. I think we’re in for a period of continued growth and improvement in the company. A few earnings calls ago, Daniel did say they could meet current demand using the existing facilities. I doubt they will do a share raise given the tremendous devaluing effect this has caused for the company in the the past. Using existing funds to grow or maybe a strategic partner is more likely in my view.
One thing is for sure, this is, finally, a company that we don’t have to lose sleep over!
Absolutely! Profit, growth, more cash on hand than before, what more could you ask for?!
Bottom drawer this for twelve months and hope that management have pulled their collective fingers out of their collective a***s!
Sigh!
Give the rise in PGM prices and the company hoovering up a large % of the shares being offered to buy, this rally will hopefully have some legs.
Ah you're right Malvolio - I stand corrected.
Either way, a sizeable tailwind!
£3 million, giving approx 6 millions shares, representing approx 4.5% of the listed shares. And all bought (potentially) before the expiry at the end of April?? That’s only forty or so trading days.
Let’s see what happens now.
I couldn't see a mention, but it may appear on the investormeet site soon or on youtube.
I really doubt Larry and Co would stick their necks out with the four to six weeks comment regarding the timeline for future strategic partners if they didn’t think it was doable. They are not given to idle boasts. So let’s see what happens next. Definitely a good start to 2024 for IES.
I suppose the market would have preferred some numbers/pricings in there for a better leap today. However it proves that the strategic partners are real and not just hopes and dreams as you can get elsewhere. It would have been good to get some performance specs on Mistral too - but i imagine all this will come.
Money is certainly important, and they will have to sort out cash before the end of the year. But it does seem that management are doing all they can to sort it out from their end. If they are pursuing strategic partners who will make batteries and pay royalties to Invinity then that opens up the possibility of whole new revenue streams into the future from Everdura (and others?)
It will be interesting to see what the company have to say about this. I would expect an RNS within 24hrs explaining their position. And hopefully denying everything!
Strategic partner signed, royalties from this, more Sps to come, validation of Mistral with orders coming through in spades… this is going through the roof this morning!
It’s like Christmas times three! So much good news all in one place!
I know what you mean, I like to have a reason for an 'up' moment. I suppose the logic is that without a reason, there is no reason why it won't also retrace!
But, she's closed at £50 today for the first time. Got to be cause for a celebration?!
In the December update Larry said:
"The development of Mistral is on track. I'm very proud of our product development team and the progress they are making toward a product that will be transformational for Invinity. I firmly believe that the official launch of Mistral next year will be the most significant announcement in the entire stationary energy storage market in all of 2024."
Brand new battery, government support and industry tailwinds. All providing forward momentum for IES.

interesting read - suggests US market is emerging from issues of late.
There are plenty of reasons to be cheerful regarding gsf here. Firstly, the recent largely unnecessary RNS released to try and shore up opinion. In this the chair commentated that:
Looking ahead to the coming quarters and years, it is evident that effective capital allocation and our unique diversification strategy have shielded us from the severe impacts others in the industry face.
In other words, other energy storage companies that have focussed on the Uk alone are suffering, but gsf is not. The management have nothing to gain and much credibility to lose by sticking their necks out so far if that RNS is not backed up with fact. We will of course see in time, but with 2024 likely seeing a doubling of the size of the portfolio and a 12% divi to keep us warm until then this appears to be an over reaction by Mr Market and a buying opportunity for those who wish to take it.
Obvious there are lots of bad things that could happen; delays, cost over runs etc but this is true of any company and something we must all factor in to our investment decision. As PIs we have no choice but to trust management at face value. If there were problems, then a sector wide issue and a series of divis being cancelled would provide the perfect cover.
