Customer Relations28 Jul 2022 10:55
I would strongly recommend that if you have a legitimate question regarding POLY to contact customer relations (Monakhov@polymetalinternational.co.uk). Although it is good to debate on here, most of what is debated is guesswork and personal opinions. Evgeny has always answered within 24 hours. I contacted him on 26 Jul, he reassured me on a few points that were of concern at the time and I wanted clarity (from the horse's mouth).
With regards to the BODs intention regarding the sale of Russian assets:, there are two options open:
1. MBO.
2. Sale to an outside buyer.
Both options remain on the table and the BOD are analyzing the pros and cons of each pathway in this complex decision tree. No timeline as to how long this could take.
As far as POLY doing a POG (administration) "We're not anywhere close to the predicament that POG found itself in, funding is abundant and affordable. "
Divvy policy strategy remains unchanged. Divvy could resume when there is a stabilization of the operating environment, logistics, supply chains normalization. Regulatory blocks need to be removed as at present 22% of shareholders currently are cut off from voting and receiving dividends. Icing on the cake would be new sales channels properly functioning, predictable, transparent and steady.
Just thought I would share to clarify what most on here already know. My view is that POLY is not without its risks, but the upside 'appear' to outweigh the downside (considerably). DYOR and good luck to all - whatever your position is. Mine is and continues to be long.
