Fact or jam tomorrow?6 May 2022 12:04
So let's look at the RNS
"From 1 February 2022 to 30 April 2022, 610 tonnes of washed coal was sold and 453 tonnes of fines were sold ex-stockpile." This is fact, but p1ss poor output for three months!!!
"Little Run of Mine ("ROM") coal was mined given the period covered the end of the rainy season and delays in the full operational handover to the new contract miner." Fact but again blaming the rain and the handover period.
"The Company believes the operational issues impacting production are being addressed, or will be so in the near term, enabling the Company to focus on achieving its targeted production rates. " Jam tomorrow. It 'believes', strewth!!! They either or they are not and this gives Edenville wiggle room as in my opinion they haven't started to address the problems yet because of the rainy season.
"The Company continues to see growing demand for its coal, at increasingly favourable prices, with a number of buyers keen to enter into offtake agreements upon confirmation of stable production and surety of supply from operations.' Jam tomorrow, so jam tomorrow!!!!
"The contract mining agreement announced on 3 February 2022 placed the production and operational costs on the contract" Fact but we knew that.
"Company has not to-date benefited from material revenue generation, its existing cash resources have largely been maintained." Not many believe the latter part unless they are selling enough to cover all the wages and other costs.
"continues to review additional investment and operational opportunities." Jam tomorrow, oh and happy birthday to Tony's money.
"At the same time, the Company is in discussions with its contract mining partner to ensure that the Company's operations at Rukwa are progressed on a timely basis." Jam tomorrow
"Alistair Muir, CEO of Edenville, commented: "Rukwa has the potential to produce significant free-cash to Edenville" Jam tomorrow
"As we move into a long dry season, we are focused on materially increasing production and believe we will be successful in delivering on this objective." Jam tomorrow.
Some negative facts, facts we knew and pot of jam tomorrow.
