RE: SATS V's SWC24 Jul 2025 09:05
You're missing the point completely. First, SWC has over 70m undisclosed warrants at 2.5p, that they aren't telling investors about and aren't calculating into their MNAV, this is completely deceptive and will be used by management and stakeholders to dump onto unsuspecting investors when they come off restriction. Second, SWCs whole "we won't raise at a discount" shows their lack of understanding of how to properly manage a long term capital raising program. It's not about a discount to market, it's about offering the correct and appropriate MNAV to strong institutional investors, that ensures you can continue to raise larger follow on rounds at a higher share price and MNAV. SWC has been taking any money available "not at a discount" but is completely ignoring the fact that they have done multiple disastrous down rounds. DOWN ROUNDS ARE BAD, DISCOUNTS ARE NOT. SWC will now have to raise money at almost a 50% premium to market to not completely f over their previous round investors who invested at 2.95 and 3.95. Cleary as you can see this is not sustainable. SATS is a main market listed company, clearly showing that their first raise is close to if not more then SWC has raised since inception, I suspect the second raise will be done at a significantly higher price for a much larger amount, given the strong institutional backing they have received. Finally, everything is about transparency, which SWC has made claims to do but shown their true colors by deceiving the market completely with the non disclosed huge material block of 2.5p warrants. SATS on the other hand, announced weeks ago the raise at 1p, fully disclosing to the market their intention. In addition, there are no hidden warrants, everything is fully disclosed as it should be. For me, hopefully both of them do well, as rising tides benefit all ships, but it appears the wind has been taken out of SWC and they will have to renege on several statements they've made.
