RE: Hydrogen Valley revised terms7 Jun 2026 22:07
I found the exact wording of the revised agreement, and it's actually better than many investors assume.
If the shares do not triple by 30 June 2026, the following becomes payable: �

30 June 2027
€750,000

30 June 2027
€750,000
New 80M shares (based on 30-day VWAP)
31 March 2028
€750,000
Cash
31 March 2028
€750,000
New 80M shares
Total = €3.0m, split:
€1.5m cash
€1.5m shares �

The important bit
There is nothing in the agreement requiring 80M to pay €3m at the end of June 2026.
What happens on 30 June 2026 is simply:
If the 220m shares have tripled in value (roughly 1.5p+), obligation disappears.
If they haven't, the deferred consideration remains in place and starts becoming payable from June 2027 onwards. �
Investegate +1
So what is the real liability?
In today's money:
€1.5m cash ≈ £1.27m
€1.5m shares ≈ £1.27m
Total ≈ £2.54m, but only about half of that is actual cash. �

Why this matters
If our estimate that 80M currently has roughly £2m–£3m of cash is in the right ballpark, then the company is not facing a June 2026 cash cliff edge from Hydrogen Valley.
The real question is whether Hydrogen Valley itself can create enough value over the next 12 months to justify those future payments.
For me, the bigger near-term financial focus would actually be:
Cash burn through 2026.
Funding and progress at Disko.
Whether USFM expands its involvement beyond the current commitment.
Any Thule transaction/update.
Whether Hydrogen Valley starts generating commercial traction.
The forum post makes the liability sound imminent, but the RNS shows the first cash payment isn't due until 30 June 2027, a full year later. �
