Comment
This was a total surpise to me, I don’t think the market anticipated this coming.
It seems a strange time to do this, Richard was on the stand at PDAC recently and looked in high spirits.
I wonder what the reason is as none is stated in the News Release, and this announcement dorve the stock down a little further.
The share price has fallen recently, but it lookes overvalued to me given we’re still at an early stage, and I think the £50 million market cap looks fully valued personally.
