Last chance saloon......12 Dec 2023 10:07
I chatted last night and realised there is people on this BB who are going to lose a lot of Money…
This is is there last chance to retain something….
The Facts IMHO
Point. 1,
PFC Revolving Credit facility of $550million is constrained to the bonds which are in the region of $300 to $400million giving them PFC access to working capital of $100 to $200 million in real terms…IMHO
Source-“PFC Group…. (US$550 million new debt facilities, comprising US$500 million bridge to bond and a US$50 million term loan; and
US$180 million revolving credit facility as of 26/10/2022)”

This is to some degree will have been additional highlighted by the Auditors… “Auditors highlight that a risk level has increased…especially “Misstatement of financial information” ……..Banking Facility’s currently are fully utilised…
Point. 2,
TenneT have engaged a contract with PFC and are sedentary awaiting for PFC to put in place the required Performance Guarantees and Advance Payment Bonds for a contract?........Will TenneT delay for ever.........The Clients will go with Contractors who can Satisfy the "Contract Requirements" for Performance Guarantees and Advance Payment Bonds....... "
And in the Meantime...the clock is running......PFC are in a total INDETERMINATE STATE.......
Point 3
Until Legacy Contracts are complete the Banks will not issue any New Bonds for TenneT or other new Contracts… The PFC Banking Facility’s currently is fully utilised…Clients don’t release Bonds until the work is Finished on the Legacy Contracts, If they did it means they have to pay Twice for work…. The bond if it is called negates this problem for the client…
Without TenneT PFC are Finished because for years PFC have preached about the Bidding Pipeline…Unfortunately this Bidding Pipeline brings loss making Contracts….If a Bond was pulled everything will collapse in Days……Banks are Over Exposed Because of the Bonds……..
Point.4
With regard to the Asset Business…
Anything with value was predisposed last Shares Dilution…
The Banks will hold anything of Significance as Security at this stage of proceedings and will not consent to their Security Position to be undermined…
