Capital Raising

24-03-2010, 12:29 PM
PEN just gone into a- trading halt- ?? glad to still be holding a few --damm house deposit

I hoping it a major investor coming on board

Takeover?? 6c-7c? not getting mine

Whatever it is it's something major

Cap raising? don't they have a 50mill bank credit ava

We have the YAGlobal 50mil equity but I think they would rather cap raise to a party that will be willing to hold longer term hopefully.

Not too happy on the extra dillution, must be approaching that 2billion shares mark soon. Hope Gus has changed his mind about a consolidation.

Sheezus Mark, 2 Billion shares, I thought they had just over 1 Billion +

Your not wrong about some the controlling short term traders, they are ruthless.

Take going round is a likely placement to a utility firm or from another major U308

PEN have 1.367bill shares an 360mill opt

I have put it to PEN's company secretary Jonathan Whyte - in person to do a consolidation of their shares 10:1 years ago he said he'll bring it up at the next board meeting
but like what he said an other PEN shareholders on HC etc is that it wouldn't matter to the way the companies shares are treated which IMHO is complete bollocks
If PEN only had 136mill shares outstanding an 36mill opts I'm sure it would be better structure the shares for one would trade at 47c not 4.7c many novice investors see low SP as risk ,just as they see 1.3bill+ shares as a bad sign for looking to shareholders for cash..

1.37bill + ~150mil options come June (now unlikely to be converted if a generic cap raising) means they are getting close haha. I should also have noted that they will be approaching 2bill after this capital raising (not currently) :)

Yes the talk over on HC is interesting. Im going with generic Hartleys CR but very happy to be proven wrong ;)

edit// If it was actually going to be for a placement, would the coy still use the term capital raising in the trading halt? or would it say placement to institutional/sophisticated investor? Trying to cast my mind back to any examples of coys that I am aware of that have made a placement to a cornerstone investor over the last few years to check wording.

I would imagine it depends on how quickly they need or want to get the funds.

Depending on how cashed up they are will most likely give you your answer~!

you taking bout the insider buying Drillfix-have seen this in many shares I follow PEN was going nowhere to only days before trading from 4.2c-4.7c then on time --advancing JORC announcement-- then trading halt
ACB did the same-CFE also tuned only days before -major ann. etc etc

can't all be just coincidental

Cap Raising or Placement, either way, was already know about 1 day earlier when they decided to put out ann that Recovery rates were better and JORC would be sooner.
They (surely) would have expected THAT ann to cause the sp to rise quite a bit, before locking in the halt.
Too late to heavily influence VWAP, so why do it 1 day before?
I suppose it builds a little momentum going into, oh I don't know, say a SSP, but timing does not make sense in relation to cash on hand and sp would be so much better after JORC (which we now know is sooner), so if a Placement, must be something opportune that has been offered.
So I am going with a Placement with a 'useful' party.

Although I do see the potential/possibility of shares for mates, I will not jump to that conclusion yet because of my confidence in management. [Have not got my head around how many crooks there are running ASX small caps after seeing some shockers (some of them have a little of my money, along with a conniving New York taxi driver and a New York music promotor.)

Holding and can't believe I got more at 4.2 last week

25-03-2010, 01:06 AM
Well, by no means am I an expert on PEN politics or all fundamentals, but when a company brings out and Ann like they did, and even I thought it was a really good ann, sweet news for the market, sweet news for shareholders, and then it suddenly falls back the way it has done/did, what exactly does this mean in reference to a Placement, everything to me doesn't quite add up. Which doesn't make it bad or anything, just suss, thats all.

Heck, as I say, I nearly bought in myself because of it~! Only to see relentless selling which was enough for me to pull my order and fortunately for me (I think) I had been quick enough to get the order out as had I left it another 5 seconds, I would have been in at 5.1c thinking to myself 2 minutes later........WTF

To me PEN is a calculated swing trade where you can Technically see the time frames of when to get in, and when to get out. Though I am reluctant to enter only knowing that there is a Higher Force that continually controls "when" and "how much" the stock can move to.

Hope this makes sense.

Just released. $5m (125m shares) to Hartleys friends at 4c with 1 free attaching option (PENOA) for every 4 new shares. $5m to existing SH - 1 share for every 11 held on same terms as Hartleys placement. To help expediate the Lance and Karoo projects.

Not hugely impressed. Would rather they did a larger cap raising now to help build a stronger register via shaking the weak hands out. Now we face another cap raising within a years time on top of utilising the 50 mil equity line.

Im undecided as to whether I will participate in the cap raising as I'm already over exposed with PEN...I may look to pick up some after if price drops below 4c.

Highlights
• Peninsula has committed to raise up to $10 million through a placement and non- renounceable rights issue to fund the development and exploration of its uranium projects in Wyoming, USA and South Africa.
• The placement has been made to institutional clients of Hartleys Limited and will raise $5 million through the issues of 125 million ordinary shares at an issue price of 4 cents per share. Each share has one (1) free attaching listed (PENOA) option exercisable at 3 cents on or before 30 June 2012 for every four (4) new shares issued pursuant to the Placement.
• All current shareholders will be given the opportunity to participate in the capital raising on the same terms as the placement, through a non-renounceable rights issue on a 1:11 basis to raise up to $5 million.

Eligible Shareholders who hold shares as at the Record Date of 7 April 2010 will be able to participate in the Rights Issue. Shares issued pursuant to the Placement will not be entitled to participate in the Rights Issue. The Rights Issue is not underwritten and the directors reserve the right to place any
shortfall pursuant to the Rights Issue. An Offer Document in relation to the Rights Issue will be mailed to eligible shareholders on 9 April 2010.

SSP 1/11th effect, but seems to have locked things straight onto 4.5c.

4.5c gets you (for 4c) 1/11th of 1 share (sp4.5) + 1/4 of an OA option (sp 2.8/4 = 0.7c) = 5.2c
5.2-4.5 = 0.7
x 1/11 effect = not much

How long will it be stuck on 4.5?

There are no trust issues with the company...they have delivered everything they have stated they would either on time or far earlier than expected (JORC was initially due in June)

Now PEN years ago used to be in gold, so there may still be some stigma surrounding the old coy as well, but I have no problems with management at all.

Endless supply of sellers on the other hand is a problem with a company that has over 1billion shares on issue and no major cornerstone investors.

Will be an interesting 2 year ride to production to see if my patience and research skills will pay out in dividends.

Yeah I agree PEN going to be a few more months before it really shines --I said time n time again about getting the shares consolidation PEN down to a couple 100mill would be a great thing (even pushed the point in person with company sec)

A great comparison IMHO is another U308 explorer ACB
--- both ACB & PEN command similar Market caps 58mill to 66mill

-- ACB has 158mt of U308 grade-low -158ppm --PEN 15mt now 80mt+ likely -high grade 510ppm

both could well double their resources as they command A grade tenements

--ACB focus is in Botswana-- PEN in the States

-ACB has a tight register --PEN loose as with near on 2bill shares

-ACB will use open cut mine --PEN----- ISR--------

-ACB hardly gets noticed by the hypers has major holders on the register PEN-very little majors -day traders rule-Rampers love esp. on hotcopper

--I really like both an IMHO ACB is more likely a takeover target from the Chinese well worth keeping an eye on both

More than happy if someone with a Hotcopper account would post this over there am banned for posting WTF? would stir up the hypers :)

Nice Cross ramp which imo only makes pen even better. Cannot compare the Pen. this company is Botswana not Woyoming USA which actually has infrastructure and has a sp 10 times that of pen and a totally different mining process method.

ACB Have actually have only infered resource and not produced a JORC ACG(ACB ya $%%^) are exagerating the extent of their resources by using a much lower U cut of grade. DYOR and compare PENs.


You do the figures
Exploration Target size of 100 million lbs of U3O8
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#1-if ACB U308 is so poor why has China Growth Minerals Increased Shareholding
to 16.07%(PEN has no major holders yet) ACB top20 hold-46% ACB only has -162m shares outstanding 9mill cash at the bank---PEN near 2billion
#2-Fact ACB Project has best address in Africa with low political risk and excellent
infrastructure already in place
#3-Global Mineral Resource (inferred and Indicated) compiled in accordance with JORC 463 Mt@ 154ppm for 158 Mlbs U308 (this could well double)
#4-Currently the Obama Government are looking at increasing taxes on resource producers in the US
(Botswana - Africa’s most stable country -not going be hard to get a good workforce an government behind the world's 12th largest U308 discovery)
Don't get me wrong PEN will do well but the Argnorance an amount of some of the HC rampers is really amazing an the only reason I can think of is the fact cause theres so many shares outstanding the bigtimer investors that hold PEN don't need a huge amount of cash to hold 1,000,000 shares an think if they ramp they hit $1

Yeah the moderators are very sensitive I got a temp ban for doing a post on ROC latest Ann ---as In ROC's Ann they stated that everyone working for ROC is only 1 in 160-talk about a big------- up yours--- from the top brass to shareholders the fact ROC has lost 115m in exploration an paid way to much for BMG which had no-where the reserves they said it did,Then take not one oz of blame for the SP sliding to a 10 yr low 3.50c-35c then to top it off they pay themselves bonuses an top wages WTF

Gee PEN has had a hard time of it of late. Closed at 3.3 yesterday. That's 0.7c under the capital raising (and you got oppies with those). Pre-feasibility study due this month. It will have to be bloody good to make it crack its downtrend.

The price of uranium and macro effects are taking its toll. Hope it isn't related someone knowing the PFS aint too flash, the dump yesterday was on a higher volume than of late.

It's an ISR operation so surely a PFS will be better than most mining ops at the current price.

Just glad I didn't participate in the cap raising.

Anyone got some thoughts on this?

The thread on Hotcopper has become riduculous, its hard to find a quality post amongst all the name-calling and childish crap, thought it mite be a bit more constructive here!!

JBmurc
18-05-2010, 12:13 PM
yes HC posters on PEN are mostly made up of hypers -Fact of the matter IMHO is PEN is a long term play U308 prices will go well north in 2012+ there's going to be to much demand an not enough new supply to meet all the new Nuclear plants being built worldwide. PEN is IMHO getting hit as they will not start production for awhile..
April 2010: initial JORC compliant resource at Lance
May 2010: pre-feasibility study completed
Dec 2010: 15mlbs+ JORC compliant indicated resource
Dec 2010: submit final licence application
Jan 2011: full feasibility study completed
Feb 2011: decision to mine
Mar 2012: yellowcake production commences at the
Ross Project

-Some real positive in PEN of late is the fact they raised 100% of the funds they were after in the SPP now that wouldn't happen if they didn't have a good assets(the MD has also put his money where his mouth is in the past)
they now have 14mill in cash an Equity*Facility of 50mill so should be able to get to the final Feasibility JORC an maybe even some of the ISR plant started before needed to raise more funds most likely they will get a J.V from a Nuclear plant that wants their U308 in the USA an is willing to loan or invest in PEN for the right of a production contract etc

- they keep hitting highs grades of U308 in their permits which should continue

That is an interesting idea with the JV with a nuclear Power plant, would that be the same as a 'take off agreement'?

yeah i guess it all depends on timing if the U308 prices starts to move sooner an there's local nuclear plants looking for forward supplies the likes of PEN could well have them knocking on the door looking to help get the plant running sooner...time will tell

I could see the reason why a local US Nuclear plant would what to take a major stake in PEN to get a seat on the board etc the amount of money to build a plant alone would make good sense to have a good relationship with a producer for the feedstock

June 2011 : last exercise of PENOA for 6c
Mar 2012: yellowcake production commences at the Ross Project.

By that time, I see the main outstanding risked item as the licence. From memory that is expected to take 12 months to process, so there may or may not be some sort of preliminary indictation of progress (likelyhood of success) by June.
PEN have been nursing this along already, with preliminary meetings, and of course PEN's licence consultants that do the application would be of the view that "of course it will succeed eventually, just a matter of documenting all the issues adequately".

Cheap buying for a long term hold will reward for those that have patience
-- There are 436 nuclear plants operating around the world (104 in the US) with another 500 plants on the drawing boards
-- China is building some 10 plants a year for the next 20 years.
Currently the industry consumes 180 million lbs of uranium a year, 50 million lbs more than the world produces. The shortfall comes from dismantling nuclear weapons stockpiles built up during the cold war. That agreement with Russia ends in 2013 when the shortfall in uranium is likely to become critical. Should all the 500 plants currently on the drawing boards be constructed they will require an additional 250 million lbs of uranium a year. Makes looking at Aussie uranium stocks a good option

Peninsula Minerals – Commentary on ASX Release – 17/8/10
Significant Resource Upgrade – 67% Increase to 25 Mill. lbs (11,400 t U3O8)
ISL Mine Life of > 10 Years Assured, at > 700 tpa U3O8
Announcement: PEN announced a 67% increase in the JORC-compliant resource at the Lance
Uranium Project in Wyoming, with the following highlights;
• Total JORC Resource now 25.2 Mlbs (11,400 t U3O8), categorised as follows;
3.6 Measured
5.6 Indicated
16.0 Inferred
25.2 Mlbs Total
• Upgrade was based on a grade/thickness model, and another 386 holes
• Grades and Grade/Thickness figures for the three locations at Lance are;
Grade Grade/Thickness
Ross Area 487 ppm 0.43
Ross 423 ppm 0.33
Barber 407 ppm 0.31
• Potential for 72-120 Mlbs., based on the observation that the Lance Project
covers at least 305 line km of known stacked roll fronts. Over 90% of the
drilling has concentrated on the Ross and Barbara areas alone. Grade
potential is 360-500 ppm.
Comments:
• This is another very positive announcement, showing that the Lance Project is
meaningful in scale and mine life. The ultimate size is a function of drilling, with
total available resource targeted to be 30-50,000 t U3O8. This is exactly what
utilities are looking for – potential for a 20 year mine life.
• The reference to the Grade/Thickness figure is useful and instructive. ISL leaching
is different to conventional mining where the ore is extracted and treated, with an
ability to calculate head and recovered grades. In an ISL operation the relevant
parameter is the grade/thickness, with the economic minimum regarded as 0.20
G/T. As the above table above shows, the Lance Project G/T is well ahead of the
minimum. The next set of factors to be considered include permeability, which
relates to the ability to flow solutions through the deposit, and depth of drilling for
development arrays.
Pre-Feasibility Study:
• Back on 14 July, PEN released the results of a pre-feasibility study that gave initial
capex at US$53m and opex at $US$22/lb, including royalties and taxes.
• Commissioning was estimated for Dec Half, 2011
• Annual capacity was 680 tpa U3O8, but potential to double in size
• Recovery rates were estimated at 80% from mine into solution, then 95% recovery
Comment:
• PEN is well placed to come on stream just when the megatons to megawatts
program winds down, which will leave the USA scrambling to buy uranium from
mine producers. Being in the US, and knowing the protectionism for which USA
industry is notorious, PEN will have a sympathetic market on its doorstep.
• At the spot price of US$46/lb, the Operating Surplus could be A$40m p.a., but at
the long term price of $60/lb it jumps to A$63m p.a. Given the market capitalisation
is $61m today, the projected economics make the share look very cheap

Well looks like I'm not the only one unhappy with PEN latest Cap raising plan of giving PEN holders 1 new PENOB 3c ex 2015 opts for ever 4 shares held at a cost of 1c
As I only recently sold my PEN to load up on the PENOA 3c ex 2012 I've well an truly taking a bath today on the opts I paid 1.9c that at the end of last week were 2.4c an now 1.6c thanks very much PEN management for the stab in the back...
-If PEN holders do take up all the 1c PENOB opts there will be an extra 400mill opts so total opts 625mill total raising for PEN only round 3.8c(PENOA free 3c ex PENOB 1c+3c ex) PEN 1.6billion outstanding

I just don't understand PEN management,, heads were trading at 3.8-4c PENOA 2.2-2.5 now they wanted to raise 4mill an take their cash reserve to round 9mill (they need round 50mill to get to production late 2012)
why o why didn't they just raise through the heads at 3.5c an attact a free PENOA 3c 2012 they would have needed only 115mill extra head shares+ 115mill opts this would have meant they then would if they run it to plan PENOA holders raising another = 10mill right when PEN will need the funds to pay down debt needed for plant
instead the 2015 date is telling the market PEN don't need extra funds sooner because they won't be building a ISR plant when planned???

don't sweat it too much - your oppies dropped nearly 1c. But owning oppies increased your leverage so, assuming sp increases from here (many times 1c) in coming months/years you will still be better off with the oppies than the heads.
PEN Business plans would have to go pretty wrong for us not to see multibagging by next year.

My feeling is management are trying to increase their own control

1.849milll was paid out in remuneration for the year,, last year it was only 1.189mill next year it will be 2.5m+ no doubt--
thing is how many more bonuses will management get going forward they do deserve it will Shareholders also get good returns -many long term shareholders of PEN would have paid north of 8c if they had stumped up with cash for the many raising of course this would be lower with added opts so say their average is 6c because of this.
PEN mangement talk of potential 295Mlb resource so far they have a 25Mlbs Now if your a long term holder 6c av
an PEN mangement state potential massive resource worth 10x 20x current market values why CR another
400mill 1c+ 3c ex opts for 2015 this doesn't make sense unless Mangement are thinking of #1 first SH #2
esp as much of the funds will go into remuneration an CR costs why just not wait to they raise the JORC resource then raise 5-6c brokers have given them a 6m 9c target less shares less dilution,currently SH are looking at round 2.2bill+ total shares(which most likely will rise to 3bill next year)

Their capital structure has turned into a bit of a cluster**** to be honest.

Bit of a joke the number of shares and options on issue. Just take a look at the latest issue - 3c exercise 5 years out for a company that should be well into production then and priced off P/E. Capital raising to fund management expenses, a bit of drilling, then fund the next capital raising.

The only ones making money off this are management and Hartleys.

Yes the opts will give you far more leverage but more risk an the fact unless you exercise early any chance to recieve any divies,SPP etc as the options are only options to own a share in the company at a set price an date
the current PENOA & PENOC which are in the money as their ex price is only 3c current Head share price 4.3c so the opts are 1.3c in the money so far to buy A's or the C's you will be paying for the time value the A's 2012 the C's 2015 if you are bullish on PEN long term the C's are the go then if the head PEN SP is by 2015 20c+ say your percent gains on current prices of 2.8c will be much better than PEN at 4.3c

So basically including ex. price PEN = 4.3c PENOA = 5.4c PENOC = 5.8c

Hi Guys,

Me and my newbe tendencies ....etc.

All very good if head shares are at 20c+ in 2015,
The other 2 possibilities are
1) Heads below 3c, so options don't get converted (and are worthless) [seems very unlikely looking at current business plan]
2) total collapse of heads (ie. company) to nothing [again, seems unlikely, but could happen] . Interestingly, under this scenario the loss from heads is the same as the loss from options, ie here is a way of perceiving a bigger gain from options but the same loss (compared with heads)...weird.

I spread my risks and have both heads and options, but mostly heads as this is sufficient risk/reward for me. [down 45% in GFC, now above breakeven, + blue skies ahead]

Certainly having someone other than Hartleys would help. There is a very big impending news pipeline in place as well so I suspect people are positioning on that basis. They keep ticking boxes and that is always good in building and maintaining reputations. U is becoming flavour of the month (hopefully year/s) and spot price increases are helping. The other aspect is that I don't think the market has really understood ISR methodology and the impacts on both Opex and Capex. Maybe that is slowly sinking in. Still a speccy but de risking all the time.

I completely understand what you mean tobo.

Not holding or anything, but was looking at this wondering to myself, is this good or bad yet not exactly sure whats up or whether they are just only trying to get the price up for less dilution or if there is whopper news on the way.

I cant see why they would worry about dilution when there are already oodles of shares on issue so why not some more, which then makes one think, there seems to be a twist to this anomoly atm.

Some news released today about another Wyoming company being given consent to mine in the area. How long do these NRC submissions take usually?

deltafive
08-01-2011, 10:35 AM
It was stated at the AGM the NRC have an internal timetable of 60 - 90 days, and PEN with their continuous communications with NRC believe their application will be responded to in the shorter time. I have been unable to confirm this through the NRC website.

tobo
09-01-2011, 08:24 AM
I have been surprised at the rise that seems to be on the back of the announcement of the other Wyoming company's consent. (Although some of it may be from increased general awareness of PEN be written about more, and some from the increasing U price.)
There was probably also a knee-jerk reaction to that approval being announced by PEN. (I thought for a split-second that the PEN approval was through in 3 days, instantly rationailising that they must do it differently in the US, perhaps everything having been ticked off in the pre-application meetings, and then just the rubber-stamp once lodged... but no, that's nonsense, as it takes a week in NZ just for the formal approval letter to be signed and invoiced at the very end of the long Consent processing once all the departments have signed it off.)
They are whipped up into a ferver over on HC, talking themselves into ever higher multi-multi-bagging targets. I, myself, am still intending to hold past production and maybe into testing for major resource increase, so I am still anticipating multibagging from here (but not sure about doubling again with 12 months!)

Will be interesting to see Monday direction. Friday close 8.8 (up .7) was a long way down from intraday high (9.5), so how much further will it drop for day traders profit-taking before levelling off. ["Leveling off" is perhaps a rather silly choice of words for this stock at the moment, what with impending resource news.]

Yes Colin, has certainly been a great ride of late. Have held these for 20 months so coming up to a 5 bagger on the heads and now a genuine 10 bagger on the PENOC's. Still a lot of news to come and while still a spec until permits and DFS issued/complete, looks to be very well managed, with ducks lined up, and plenty of upside.

exhilerating climb based on bot U price and company newsflow
Like most,
Excited,
nervous that it's overshot and might retrace
nervous that the only big outstanding item (licence) could have hiccup
but also thinking to hold way longer for long term gain.

Confused by the idea that I am "wealthier" yet have absolutely no cash to spend since I would be "silly?" to sell some now. Annoying thing is I will be up for FIF tax yet have no cash with which to pay said tax unless I sell some (will be a bigger issue in 12 mths time).
And finally, after 2 to 10 bag growth (heads, A's and C's) am now heavily overweighted in the stock that I think will bring me best LT gains.

Euphoricly and nervously holding.

BTW, todays agreement is for 1m lbs over 7 years.
That's only (best case) 5% of total production (after ramp up it is 3m lbs pa x 7 yrs = 20m lbs).
Being only 5% of production surely means this is only a small piece of good news.
(Although it does demonstrate confidence that licence and product WILL be achieved.)

Hi Tobo, why do you say you will be up for FIF tax? PEN is an ASX domiciled company and as such my understanding is that it is exempt from anything like that. I think my understanding of FIF tax is what you are talking about. Shasta has had a pretty good handle on this in previous queries I have had - going back some years now.

Great ride though ah! One slip could shatter it but it is de risking every day.

Bad news. To be exempt from FIF it has to be in the All Ords (or ASX300) at the time you first buy.

(I am still unsure about the definition of "at the time you first buy" Once it gets in the all Ords, Does it mean if I then buy some more THEY are also not exempt? Or is it referring to the idea that, say i owned some years ago and they are now sold, if I buy some after it gets into All Ords am I still not exempt because I USED to own some in the past when they were not in All Ords. [This is a theoretical example, and I am aware that PEN is till not yet in the All Ords].

They only conversation I ever had with IRD about FIF left me with the impression I knew more than she did, and she was satisfied that I seemed to have put in a correct claim since I "seemed to have a good understanding of FIF" so maybe I still have it wrong.

be keen to hear what they say

Have been doing quite a bit of research into this including past threads on ST (dating back to 2007 when regime came into play). Pretty clear feel at this point that some of my ASX holdings (being PEN and STX) will attract FIF tax. PEN I hope will move into ASX All Ords come 20/3/11 - that date being consistent historical redrawing of ASX All Ords).

More a pain in the ##### than anything given the likely returns via PEN particularly. Just want to keep the portfolio clean rom a tax liability perspective! Was going to get an opinion from a QC who I know (and who specialises in tax related matters) but the more I look the more it looks like I should just accept and pay FIF on the two above until such time as they make a move and get into the All Ords and exempt themselves (which in itself is annoying as that means decision is made on market capitalisation which is only precariously one of the three criteria IRD place on exemption.)

Will track this a bit further and keep you posted. Thanks for the intial heads up - I must say I hadn't even given it a thought - and I had looked at FIF issues a few years ago when I was looking at OSH!

Pago - nothing I have seen so far would indicate that options (A or C) are exempt from FIF. Again will have a bit more of a look and let you know whatI come up with.

Agree - lets talk about the good story

tobo
20-02-2011, 10:06 AM
FIF discussion is on "FIF - any spreadsheets", in the Investments Strategy section.

The good story: yeah it is.
PEN seems to be exhibiting the activity where it goes up a bit each time there is a new announcement, as if there is no check by the market what the market cap should be, but the simply (and say this with Homer Simpson's voice "news good" "must buy more".

Last year I worked out my own market cap based on first year and ongoing production of the 1.5-3m lbs with discounted cashflow and conservative PE and ended up with 8 or 9c per share.
And the 8 or 9c was unrisked (ie. 9c after approvals obtained and production commisioned).
Since then the U price has increased (still an unknown what it will be when production is happening), and JORC increased a little bit.
I am not saying I only value the company at 9c potential, as I see possible upside (bigtime) for 100-200-300mlbs JORC eventually (incl Karoo and possible additional future land at Wyoming). [To be honest, I am sort of ignoring Aus tenements, and also expecting zilch from Rakiraki since we have no control, and no news is, well, no news].
So I am now interpreting the current 15c as having a large component relating to "lbs in the ground yet to be JORCed"
Say half or more of the 15c.
What does this tell me?
It warns me that this half is the speculative part (and therefore very volatile and could go down on a wider market whim.)

Maybe 5c is for the 1.5-3m lbs taking into account risks (permit and commisioning)
At the moment I am thinking anything above this is the speculative part of the operation. This 10c is the bit that'll end up anywhere in the range of zero to...whatever 50c-70c-$1 blue sky people can imagine.

I had a decent holding (by my standards), and now over 2 bagger means I am overweight if I interpret my holding as one-third permit/product risk, and two-thirds blue sky fluffy stuff.

Anyway, trend is friend, so holding.

The U308 spot price has had its first decrease in a while, a modest $0.75 down this week to $US72.25

PEN @ 15c & with 2b shares has a market cap just over $300m, so much of the "blue sky" has now been priced in, prior to production.

To justify a P/E around 10 - thats a $30m NPAT, so it does look a bit rich as they will be unlikely to make that in the first year of production

...
When you say much of the "blue sky" has now been priced in, I presume you mean the market's current risked assessment of the potential, you don't mean that 15c is what it would end up at if several hundred mlbs are eventually JORCed.

Along these lines, it suggests a short term trader might exit to move on to next week's big thing,
and a long term investor might either exit, or stay in for long term potentials.

So we might see a retrace, but then again, impending news might keep the trend going for a little while

Yeah agree-- those PEN opts getting a right smashing 44% along with the heads be some very unhappy holders that brought up over the last few months at 10c+ only brought a small PENOC holding might have to get some more in the mid 5's really think we'll look back an see how over done the market was selling down good U308 companies

People all over the world are watching a nuclear power plant blow up on TV. Which Govt is now going to get the votes necessary to build new nuclear plants in their populations neighborhoods? Remember the Labour Govt in NZ got elected on the back of a nuclear free status policy. While people are scared and people vote, this could be the end of the nuclear industry. I wouldn't be buying anything until the dust settled and we know how bad things got.

yeah right so what the likes of japan get power from-- coal,gas power plant to fill the growing gap a report awhile ago stated a huge number of Nuclear power plants 100+ planning to be built within the next 20yrs there's 442 in operation currently 54 in japan alone...(2 new ones being built atm)
the one in japan that is currently in so much trouble is 30yrs old and is due to be retired/upgraded 1 out of 54 after the biggest of known earthquakes in japan

So you'd be totally happy to live in the same town as a nuclear reactor, and would vote for any local or national Govt that wants to put one in your neighborhood? Especially after watching people on tv being evacuated and wandering around in hazmat gear, and knowing that people in japan are now being treated for radiation sickness. What if the thing blows sky high, and those parts of japan become uninhabitable for centuries like chernoble?

well there's 54 currently with 2 being built in japan add in the fact that japan population to landmass is very high so really a large population of Japanese will live close to a power plant...would I be happy to live next door to a nuclear plant well no ,but then I wouldn't be keen to live right next door to any power plants or factories or near major power train lines etc
would I live in a town with a nuclear plant or live in a town without any power I chose the former as do many millions of people that like the use of electrical power

JBmurc
14-03-2011, 09:25 PM
It's not a question of no power but what type of power generation. How about gas and fuel cell generated power, hydro electric, solar, wind, wave etc. I'm just saying Govts are going to have a really hard time convincing people of the safety of nuclear power plants after this, so many that are in the planning stage may not get built. Hell, there are suburbs in Melbourne with no mobile phone coverage because the nimby's refuse to allow a cell tower to be put up!

yeah I agree there will be some fallout but as we have seen in the past unless there is some new technology that is even in the same league of Nuclear you won't see a mass of shutdowns an no more Nuclear

Plenty, China for one wont stop Nuclear plants being built, why slow down your countries growth.


...he refused to rule out closures if necessary

So they then will build newer bigger plants if they make closures, good for uranium stocks!

Unless we pour billions if not trillions into renewable clean energy development, Nuclear is the only option for countries who are growing at a rate at which there are no other options. As for Greenpeace protesting they are so disconnected from society, guess they would rather see coal plants across Europe with rolling black outs because governments cant keep up with demand.

The events in Japan have been totally blown out of proportion by misinformed media reports. So far the plants have done exactly what they were supposed to do, the explosions although unplanned were just part of a cooling technique which was underway. The Earthquake was not even the problem, it is the Tsunami that has caused the damage to the cooling techniques available and not even the Japanese ever expected a wall of water this large to ever break the man made stop banks.

Unfortunately though, an even considering Nuclear power has killed less people in history than any other generation technique (except the dynamo on your bicycle) the media misreport it backing and fueling popular belief that it is "dirty". The Japanese will rebuild these plants bigger and stonger and the whole industry will learn from it.

Prices will drop short term but in the long term unless viable alternate generation methods become available it will not take long for this train to get rolling again.

I hope they weren't the ones I sold at around that level earlier in the day, JB! I'm sure I don't need to tell you about the dangers of trying to catch a falling knife.

It will be a long, long time before the world forgets this Japanese "event", which will be placed alongside Chernobyl and Five Mile Island, I'm afraid. Sentiment will remain negative for new nuclear plants in a whole range of countries, notwithstanding the mounting pressures for sources of energy alternative to fossil fuels.

That's my assessment, but you obviously have yours.

I realise the public are morons, but you'd have to be a pussy to shun nuclear power based on this incident.

What is the alternative? An energy intensive economy like Japan could only use fossil fuels, of which supplies are scarce and the environmental effects worse in the long run.

There will be no meltdown here and the safety measures in place, already light years ahead of the Chernobyl era, will become even more rigorous.

Rest assured this will not stop the Chinese, and if the West wants to cry into their coffee about this "disaster" we will pay the penalty in the long run.

So the Govt has declared a nuclear emergency over misinformed media reports? I don't think so.

Not at all, the government declared a Nuclear emergency because all cooling methods available failed because of the Tsunami which is a pretty serious matter which needs urgent attention. However, it is not as bad as the media & public speculation suggests.

Mean while every time they replay the hydrogen explosion, I say again HYDROGEN explosion, the SP of U companies drop.

Uranium stocks are on my avoid list and have been for the last year.

There are just so many additional risks involved in holding U stocks compared to other minerals....Uranium is not even very scarce and for the most part is subject to marginal returns....over time, i have come to realise that the risk/reward equation for U stocks does not stack up for me.

Having made a lot of money then lost a lot in the 2007 Uranium bubble, this is a sector that is subject to massive hype and uncertainty. It is a sector that just seems to attract speculation and unnecessary drama...i guess that is why they are so popular on hot-copper

The number of U stocks that have had issues over the last couple of years (not related to the volatile U price) is very long... off the top of my head BMN (feasibility study issues), BLR (drilling access) AGS (JV issues) MTN(access issues) WCU (production/financing issues) CUY ...

For every one successful U stock (eg MRU , PDN, SMM) there just seems to be so many more failures.

BLR was my last major exposure to the U sector and i dumped that some time ago. I can’t see me re-entering the sector any time soon, even given the recent massive write-downs.

Someone will make some money on a short term bounceback of uranium stocks from an oversold position (today maybe?), but if it were me, that's when I'd be heading for the exit.

If the nuclear situation is solved to suitable degree I think the Oz market will begin to focus on the re-build in Japan which will require Oz resources. Also inflation etc. will refuel uptrends in commodity prices and PGMs. Oz RBA still sees interest rises at some stage this year so AUD will regain some of its strength of late.

Wow, I can't beleive I just 'converted' my PENOA options to PEN heads yesturday for 2.2 cents (sold OAs for 2.8, bought PENs for 5.0)
Nothing to do with a response to the carnage, but simply exercising oppies early (due next yr) as part of my LT holdings plan, taking advantage of the carnage.
Obviously may be seen as 'falling knife buying' by some and maybe sp will yet go lower, but decided to do it as this can be seen in a certain way as buying heads for 4.2c.
The only loss of control is that I lose the ability to simply "not" exercise, if things really turn really rotten-pear shaped.

I think the company's development is still looking good, and that the risks are the price of Uranium (recently affected by Tsunami sentiment, but could possibly be included in a general drop in all commodity prices on the back of global slump).
Even then, PEN will be a low cost producer relative to other U producers.

Think its more to do with the fact the Govt announce they are considering lifting the ban on exporting uranium to India. However, what the punters fail to realise is that India already buys uranium from other countries, so this will be an increase in supply not an increase in demand - which usually means the price of the commodity in question falls.


Could be but PEN have their planned production next year from USA and then South Africa in 2015 . No plans in Australia as of yet. It does show an overall change in sentiment towards uranium.

PEN is on the right track with the company transforming in the next 12 months to producer/explorer good resources and rising U Price.
Next 2 -3 months should see resource upgrade, DFS, finance & permit to mine .

I think people are just starting to realise that production is going to be in 2014/15 rather than 2012/2013 as managment have been saying. Remember production was supposed to be in March this year. So those holders waiting another 3 years does not look good. Especially when they have just started ramping up staff at strata energy in USA. If the options don't manage to get converted at 3c next month then they are going to have to do a serious capital raising. Even with the options converted they will still need to raise capital to build the CPP as not all of it will be debt funded as they have suggested in earlier ASX releases. I still like PEN but will be buying back in later on when there is more clarity around the SML and production dates and hopefully a lower shareprice.

IMO Price slide is not due to problems with PEN.
It is the general market sentiment.
Ive glanced at several small cap miners and noted many Share Price charts are similar to PENs. They bolted early December last year and are now trending down.

The reason I sold half my stock a couple of months ago was due to some basic T/A of my own finding. If you glance at a 5 year Share Price and OBV chart, you will note the OBV is like the top of the ocean, it surges about every 12 to 15 months. Share Price runs as well but not necessarily to higher highs. We had the surge again and I decided to sell many and plan on buying back in at a lower price.

I regularly read PEN thread on HC and ASF. I found a poster who is genuine, down to earth and worthy of looking into his analysis to see if I can see what he sees. Its El Capo on HC. He has a Top Secret Indicator. An enjoyable character to follow who intrigues me but unfortunately gets knocked by many. He is tipping we will see a low of about 1.7 to 1.8 cents per share. I looked at 10 year chart in weekend and now am sure I see his reasoning for his belief. Gives myself a target re entry price range.

I could ramble on in fine detail forever but I hope this is enough of a basic overview of some of my thoughts. I aint stressed at all in the price slide. Its the market in general. Cheers.

OK, fair enough. I'm a holder. Was thinking maybe better to buy on market (at price lower than 3c if it happens) rather than convert the options.

JBmurc......I have just seen your post on HC PEN thread regarding loading up on ACB.

I am presuming from your comment you have a preference for ACB over PEN. If this is the case then could you explain your reasoning...Cheers:)

From their Qtr report---
A‐Cap Resources Limited (‘A‐Cap’) has discovered one of the world’s largest undeveloped Uranium Deposits (352mlbs) in North Eastern Botswana, since commencing exploration in late 2006. The Letlhakane Uranium Project lies adjacent to Botswana’s main North‐South infrastructure corridor that includes a sealed all weather highway, railway line and the national power grid, all of which will make significant contributions to keeping the capital cost of future developments low.

also just made some major Coal Discoveries looking for more U308... diversification

worth round half what PEN is.......@35mill(ACB is a sleeper PEN is a well known)

has a tight register with some major investors on board..round 240mill share (top20 hold over 50%) PEN muti-billion shares ....can't remember if PEN having many majors holders at all...

ACB going be much more likely target from a predator IMHO ..

Another observation this week........Trendlines.........Super bad arse one:scared:

Note 15 cent in Feb 2011....then 7.5 in Feb 2012.....6.2 shortly after .....recently the last few weeks (false break out few weeks ago got slammed back down)......Goods news with some volume didnt get far this week..................I am presuming the masses on Sharetrader have already diagnosed the diabolical situation facing the prevailing downtrend which is upon us.

Yes folks.........Crunch time at the trendline............next week:scared:

CanOz appears switched on, he has just placed a chart with a horizontal trendline on 2.5 cents....pewal on HC had previously shown same on a chart. I reckon different, I placed this chart on ASF (which replicates a couple of CanOz trendlines) so shall be interesting to see if CanOz will reply to debunk my thoughts.

I'm still on the sidelines on PEN. Only thing that can really move it near term would be the SML I would of thought?

With the price of uranium at the moment it won't be unexpected. PENs projects pretty much worthless until the uranium price picks up. Demand supposed to pick up coming years but if it doesn't then can't see the SP moving either (moving up that is)

Should the chart have played out to perfection, we should have seen 1.8 cents at end of June.
If 2.1 cent low at end of June is the bottom, then close enough is good enough for this kid:t_up:

not bad at all. still looks too expensive for me with uranium sitting at $40 a pound. If uranium does not pick up by early next year then they not going to be going into production.

Thanks moosie, interesting that a shut could play havoc with price suggesting demand /supply is in a tight boundary as I would have thought they had sold forward? Own Toe (who knows where this is going)

lambton
05-09-2014, 09:16 PM
This happened during the last massive uranium spike. Mine closure = MASSIVE speculation (the mine wasn't even producing and hadn't even been developed!)


So maybe supply is tight after all and price is being driven down by the few demand players in the game?

Yes, I've pushed my parcel on offer up a few notches closer to 4c. Looking at PEN's chart pattern, this run looks like it could last a week or two.

BC

Bobcat.
23-09-2014, 03:48 PM
Hey Bobcat, I reckon roughly the run will go to between 6 to 7 cents based heavily on my Fib based fan chart. Could you explain why you feel about 4 cents? Fibs, Gann,... maybe resistance level??


I've since dropped my target sell price to 3.5c. April's high at 3.7c will likely produce some resistance, and until it breaks through that I'll not be convinced that PEN has begun an upward trend. I'll be happy short-term to take profit at just under that level...then watch for more bullish signals before coming back in again.

BKY is also a good Uranium play IMO, especially if and when they get the mining permit that they've applied for in Spain...a country that is in such dire need of an economic boost, I'd be very surprised if they don't.

Discl: holding both...as well as a few PDN (which has a balance sheet stronger than previously thought...thanks to the state of its forward contracts). Yes, Uranium is looking like it will have a strong run through next year.

I hold over 1.5 million of these shares and have enjoyed the ride to 16 cents some years back. Now they sit at 2.3 cents and are not moving as well as i would expect after the price increase in Uranium. If and when they move is the big question. AGM is on everyones lips at the moment here in Australia. Directors looking for more handouts to fill their pockets,you would not mind helping the poor buggers out if the price was increasing and the company info flowed alot better to us poor investors

I've been having to deal to the PEN trash talkers on the Aussie forums recently. They have stepped it up and been fierce.

Hi karlos what are you saying here; that the bottom is /nearly in or?

I've said bottom in prior to a rally previously JT, seen a descending wedge break previously and PEN has bolted, seen it break upper trendline (which it has been touching lower highs) previously and its bolted, I've traded some mean as trades, ...and stuffed up previously and after all this time am down considerably, sometimes mind in good space and all is clear, sometimes too much going on and all is overwhelming......seems much U308 talk from experts/news articles is appreciation of U308 Spot Price is several years away now...all bad news currently, opposite of awesome early 2011 fantastic news..... but, flip, some sort of rally can be expected, how high I don't know............ myself personally am over this sh.t now.

Thanks karlos. All the best for any new less risky strategies.

All good JT, I was just abit tanked last night.

Another way to explain is my Fibonacci Fan broke lower trendline while back, thought damn it, got to get myself out of the poor situation, trade it, made good exit just below 80 cents early last year when RSI overbought, bought back in 50 to 60 cents late last year, sold early this year all accounts above 80 cents, now have one account back in positive territory, Mrs got sick and in hospital so I'm running at 110% and drained, flipped up and bought back in Feb (when she in hospital) at around 80 cents, to much going on, once mind got back in good space its way to late, down at 40 cents, told wife not her fault, came to a real understanding life /emotions have larger bearing on decision making, have accepted not cut out for this, however, we have seen previous descending wedges, another is the making with reasonable rally expected
