The latest Investing Matters Podcast episode featuring Jeremy Skillington, CEO of Poolbeg Pharma has just been released. Listen here.
DGI Webinar Presentation A MUST WATCH.
https://youtu.be/a8ferWGl3Aw?si=PZRvckwSAaEVt0Be
I highly recommend that if you are thinking about investing in DGI or already invested, the attached presentation is an absolute eye opener not only for the ground breaking technology but for the potential of this share. The founder Martin Broughtwood is an absolute genius. He and his fellow scientists have developed products that are nothing short of outstanding.
However, now that the Tesla Dream Team are at the helm along with the necessary funding it’s a game changer as these ground breaking products can at last be taken to commercialisation.
Just one order from Meritor (now Cummins) or the MOD and the SP will explode. This in my opinion is a investment to hold, so don’t be tempted to sell for a quick profit because no doubt, further down the line you will be kicking yourself. I beleive the SP has the potential to go 20, 50 maybe 100 times from here. The Tesla trio haven’t got involved for just 10’s of millions, that’s for sure.
Watch this presentation and no doubt you will also share my confidence.

I would think it’s still the same seller from last week. More than likely he has given his broker a sell order but isn’t aware of today’s news. But as I mentioned on Friday, it’s better that he sells now rather than further down the line. It’s good news for new investors that want to get in cheaply and for existing investors that wish to top up

It looks as if one of the larger shareholders has decided to reduce his stake. Tbh I think it's good that he does it now at this level rather than down the road at a much higher price. Unexpected opportunity here to increase your holding or buy in for the first time if you missed the boat. I certainly never thought that this would ever go sub .2 again.

😀. @Flava. Looks like your order got put through at a shade more .167. Crazy price really considering an RNS could come at anytime. As soon as they announce their plans it should re rate to a more realistic price
Just picked up another 7,000, 0000 shares for .165.
Already have a serious holding but couldn’t resist more at this price. My broker said that there was only 2.5 mil within the spread should tick up now
Good to see that some newer investors are starting to do some research on DGI. To be honest this forecast of 0.35+ for next week is far from unrealistic when you consider that back in March 2021 the RTO was carried out at a price of .6 of a penny. Back then, the Pareta drive train was still in its r&d stage and had not undergone rigorous stress tests. It is now ready for production through a pilot scheme and funding is now in place. This will also enable a further million pound grant from the Welsh government.
The price of .6 was also before having the Tesla trio at the helm. In effect you have the opportunity to buy into this company at over 3 times less than founder Martin Broughtwood bought his shares for. This is crazy when you consider that he had been developing this amazing technology for over a decade.
Also they have been working with Meritor (now Cummins) for many years and they will no doubt be placing a substantial order as soon as DGI can demonstrate that they are able to scale up production.
They have also been working with the MOD since the beginning and no doubt it’s only a matter of time before a big contract with them will happen.
They have also signed a collaboration agreement with BRIST and Base. They are a tier one commercial vehicle and off - highway axle suppliers based in Italy. This collaboration was concluded in February this year. This was a way to fast track DGI ‘s Pareta drive train to market using BRIST’s axle’s and taking advantage of their extensive established client base.
In fact realistically there is no shortage of customers. It’s all been about having the necessary funding to start producing there ground breaking drive trains.
This is just one part of the business before you even start talking about the Enhanced Battery Technology side of the business.
I’m sure that you will agree that the current market cap is totally ridiculous and it’s not unreasonable to think that the SP at the moment should be nearer a penny.
Just do your research and you will no doubt share my confidence. PS. The webinar presentation is a great watch if you haven’t seen it yet.

Two weeks ago this company had a market cap of around 4 million, however although it had some cutting edge technology, realistically it was a company that, due to lack of funds and quality management was probably running of fumes and was destined for administration, hence the price.
Now it’s a totally different story. It’s now a company with incredible IP ready for production with tier one companies in the waiting. It now has the Tesla Dream Team at the helm with a wealth of knowledge, this is priceless. It’s now a company that will have enough funding on tap to fulfill its promise. So realistically the current SP is still way undervalued, I’m sure you must agree.

Just to clarify my post of yesterday
At the moment DGI is a standard listed company, which is the junior part of the main market.
One issue that standard listed companies have is that there are very tight limits on the amounts of money that they can raise without the expense of a full prospectus. The other issue is that they are not able to receive investment from Venture Capital Trust companies. The frustrating thing is that DGI has already been approved by HMRC to accept VCT investment but cannot do so unless they move to AIM or a suitable platform.
VCT companies are always looking out for good companies to invest in. There are very big tax breaks for those that invest in VCT’s.
As mentioned yesterday there is at least one company very keen to invest in DGI, therefore moving to AIM would be more beneficial.

@dunk_biscuit. Very good post. Nice to see someone doing some good research. Very few people are actually aware of what we actually have here.
I have been a shareholder just before the listing and have added several times including the most recent private raise. In all honesty this was bit of a punt but I totally believed in the technology and I knew that if they could find the funding the rewards would be incredible. Realistically my money was to keep the lights on for another 5/6 months. However not only did they secure the funding to enable DGI to get their incredible products to market they also brought to the party the Tesla Dream Team. When I saw that article in the Sunday Times I felt like a lottery winner. I can assure you that I have absolutely no intentions of selling a single share. This is just the beginning. These guys are not in it for just 10’s of millions that for sure.

Another thing you need to consider if you are looking to invest.
At the moment DGI is not on the AIM market and therefore this limits certain investors. Now that this company will not be short of funds it will no doubt list on AIM asap.
I know that there are a couple of Venture Capital Trust companies already keen to invest but were unable to because of this.
This leaves an opportunity for the private investors to get in at a sensible price. In my view anything under .5 of a penny is still very cheap.

Part 3 of Telegraph article.
Fortunately, inroads are being made into these other costs, says Jones, which could reduce how much power is needed to make them.
He says that using infrared technology or removing solvents from sodium battery manufacturing could slash energy usage, which in turn will bring down costs.
Innovation that potentially reduces the cost of electric car batteries will prove crucial as the rate of sales slows in Britain and Europe.
Last month, household buying of cars fell by 6pc, triggered by a slump in sales of battery-powered vehicles, according to figures from the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders.
The lobby group found that the percentage of electric cars sold has fallen compared to the rest of the year, with EVs accounting for 15.6pc of car sales in November, compared to 16.3pc in the first 10 months of the year. Forecasts for electric car take-up were also slashed by almost half last month by the Government’s financial watchdog.
The Office for Budget Responsibility (OBR) previously indicated that sales of new battery-powered cars were expected to grow steadily until accounting for 67pc of the market by 2027, under a prediction issued in March. However, that figure has now been revised down to just 38pc by the OBR, which said that the take-up of EVs has been slowing.
Getting the price of electric cars down to that of petrol equivalents has been seen as a way to boost sales, particularly as the cost of running the vehicle remains cheaper thanks to low-cost home charging. Jones says there are two big trends to keep an eye on in the industry’s quest for cheaper and more efficient batteries.
One is alternative chemistries like sodium and LFP, and the other is so-called solid-state technology.
Battery cells have an anode and cathode, plus an electrolyte which transfers charge-carrying particles between the two.
Currently, electrolytes in lithium batteries are liquid.
However, a solid electrolyte is potentially lighter, safer and accommodates faster charging. Car manufacturers such as Nissan and Toyota are predicting that a solid-state model will be ready by 2028, although Mauro Pasta, professor of applied electrochemistry at the University of Oxford, warns that mass manufacturing at a reasonable cost is still a long way off.
He also warns of the pitfalls underlying sodium technology, although he adds it could ultimately serve as a useful alternative to lithium. “You want to have that chemistry in your pocket, just in case the price of lithium will go up again,” he says. “Then you have an alternative that is inexpensive”.
Crucially, the availability of sodium for other battery technologies could also reduce overall competition for lithium, potentially bringing down costs.
Yet, regardless of which substance is used, both Jones and Pasta agree that new technologies will be needed to power the electric car revolution.
