Invester86,

Everyone’s entitled to their view — that’s what makes a market.

Pete’s clearly experienced and confident in his stance. Fair enough. But none of us “know everything.” If we did, we’d all be millionaires already.I’m not here to argue personalities. I’m here looking at valuation versus potential. At ~2p with record generation updates, construction progress, and strategic direction evolving, the risk/reward looks very different to me compared to when this was 5p+.

Being bullish at lows doesn’t make someone a day trader. It just means they see opportunity where others see risk.

Time will tell which side of the trade was right — that’s the beauty of the market

Pete,

I respect that you’ve looked at the numbers — but markets don’t price off static spreadsheets alone. They price off trajectory, restructuring, asset value and forward catalysts.

Yes, the company has had challenges. That’s already reflected in a 50%+ drop. What I see now is a micro-cap sitting at a depressed valuation, with operational assets and a sector backdrop that is structurally strong.

You say “serious detriment to shareholders” — yet dilution risk and funding pressure are exactly what get priced in at these levels. When sentiment is this negative and the market cap this compressed, it doesn’t take perfection to rerate — it takes progress.

Calling people traders “treading water” is fine — but those who buy when fear is loudest are often the ones positioned when sentiment turns.

Six months ago the price was higher and optimism excessive. Today pessimism is excessive.

Pete

Whether it’s AIM or the Main Market doesn’t change the investment case — small-cap dynamics are still driven by sentiment, liquidity and delivery.

As for 5p — markets move. Short-term price action doesn’t automatically invalidate a thesis. If that were the case, no recovery story would ever exist.

The fact it has fallen heavily is exactly why the risk/reward now looks more attractive. Valuation has compressed significantly, expectations are extremely low, and pessimism is dominant. That’s typically where stronger upside potential begins to form.

The real question isn’t where it was two months ago — it’s whether operational progress from here justifies a higher valuation than today’s level.

Pete

You may be focused on 1p — I’m focused on what happens if progress lands.

At these levels the market is pricing in extreme pessimism. That creates opportunity. When expectations are this low, even steady operational updates can trigger a strong re-rating.

The valuation now is a fraction of where it was. The strategy and capacity ambitions haven’t disappeared — only sentiment has. And sentiment is the one thing that can change very quickly.

In small caps, recoveries don’t creep — they move fast when momentum returns. We’ve all seen stocks written off that then multi-bag once delivery becomes visible.

If someone believes the company will execute, these are precisely the levels that offer the most attractive risk/reward.

I’m not concerned about daily predictions — I’m watching the bigger picture.

Positioned. Patient. Positive.

Pete

Yes, I called it a strong buy at 5p — and I stand by the logic, because the long-term operational target hasn’t disappeared. The only thing that’s changed materially is the share price.

At 2.4p the market cap is a fraction of what it was. The same assets, the same ambition, the same strategy — but priced as if failure is guaranteed. That’s exactly when asymmetric opportunities appear.

If delivery lands — site acquisitions, operational capacity coming online, funding clarity — this doesn’t move 10–20%, it re-rates multiples. AIM stocks don’t recover slowly when sentiment flips; they gap up hard.

The market has already priced in extreme pessimism. When everyone is convinced it’s going to 1p, that’s usually when liquidity tightens and any positive catalyst forces a sharp reversal.

Am I down on paper? Yes. But that’s irrelevant unless I sell. What matters is where the company is valued today versus its potential operational output. At this valuation, the upside outweighs the downside in my view.

This is high risk, high reward — but from these levels the reward side is now significantly amplified.

I’m not selling at capitulation prices. I’m positioned for the turnaround.

GLA — and as always, DYOR.

I’m firmly in the camp that at these levels the risk/reward is heavily skewed to the upside.

After a 90%+ drop, most of the fear is already priced in. Selling now only crystallises losses at what could well prove to be the bottoming phase. Historically, the biggest percentage gains come when sentiment is this negative and expectations are rock bottom.

At 2–3p the market cap is tiny relative to the potential operational output if delivery progresses as planned. One meaningful RNS — funding clarity, asset progress, revenue confirmation — and this can re-rate very quickly. AIM moves fast when momentum flips.

Averaging down isn’t reckless if you understand the risk and believe in the turnaround story — it’s positioning ahead of a potential recovery. When the crowd is convinced it’s heading to 1p, that’s often when reversals happen.

Nothing guaranteed, of course — but from a probability perspective, the upside from here could be multiples, while the downside is increasingly limited compared to where we’ve already come from.

I’m holding and watching closely.

Some people encourage others to sell their valuable shares so the price drops to their target. That way, they can buy back in cheaply while others end up losing out

This isn’t the time to sell at these historically low prices. In my opinion, this is the moment to buy and increase holdings

Everything is fine with MAST. Some people are spreading misleading information to encourage others to sell, but they will soon realise they were mistaken

Keep it going—once it’s gone, it’s gone

I’ll be very surprised if it doesn’t close at 5 or higher

At this level, I believe it’s a safe entry point. It looks far more attractive than most other shares on the market, and I agree with Cando66. We might not see it this low again

I think MAST has already hit the bottom, and it looks like this is the moment for it to start moving upward

In my view, this is an exceptionally compelling level, and I personally wouldn’t consider selling at this price

This share has strong potential, and the current price looks extremely attractive. It could pick up at any moment from here. I’ve increased my holding to 1.1 million shares. A!

I have been also trying for an hour without success

2,040 barrels of oil equivalent per day

Can someone explain to me why this company is valued only £3m while it is producing at a rate of 2,040 barrels of oil equivalent per ? I am new to this company and wish to invest if everything is ok

i was also able to buy some at this low price but my transaction is not showing

my buy is not showing
