Once again, we find that with many small companies, individual shareholders miss out on the opportunities sophisticated can access.
In the last update, the company announced a placement to sophisticated investors via a two-tranche placement at $0.50 to raise $25 Million. Individual investors could purchase shares through an SPP at the same price as sophisticated investors. The SPP was to be capped at $5 Million.
It was our intention to buy additional shares in the SPP, as this is no longer, we will look to buy shares on market.
The company decided to increase the placement to sophisticated investors to $30 Million and scrape the SPP.
Why are we buying additional shares now?
- AHQ is on the cusp of rapid expansion
- Prices for coking coal remain elevated
- Cash flow in the most recent quarter was only $1.7 million bit this increases substantially in the coming quarters
- Based on projected FY2022 EBITDA Allegiance is trading on a multiple of 2x
- Strong management with a good history of delivering
In the short-term upside might be limited as the market digest the recent placement but the future looks very promising.
