RE: Question about CLNs23 Apr 2021 09:02
For me, I had assumed that the Mint deal was to help Hemo pay for their part of the collaboration with Global co- and to use on some other products. I unfortunately did think global co would take the option as they had been working together for years and the product is apparently doing very well. I also mistakenly thought Global co would provide significant funding for CDX, so Hemo would not be so reliant on Mint money.
Therefore, I didn't foresee a substantial drop in SP so the Mint deal didn't look so bad.
However, I then realised how vague the RNS was with regards to who the option was being taken by. But I hesitated to act and it was too late... massive drop on news of Hemo being the ones taking the option. This means more risk for Hemo and more funds needed. In this scenario, with a much lower SP and no current future prospects of incoming funds, the Mint deal is much higher risk. Add to that, the fact Mint have converted so often recently and that the relationship with Hemo appears to have broken down... and here we are. Reading that back is rather embarrassing how many incorrect assumptions I made. Happy for others to fill in anything I have missed and would like to hear others perspectives.
