For those pre-production #uranium caps (<US$150m size) raising money to take them towards the Final Investment Decision, this should come as no surprise, one should build into their models dilution as follows:
$55 spot = likely 50-65% dilution if capex is funded at this point
1/3
$65 spot = 45-55%
$75 spot = 40-50%
$85 spot = 35-45%
Hence our view that buying < 0.7x peak CF 3-4 years out undiluted = 0.9-1.2x diluted = 4-5x upside.
Those trading at <0.5x = 6-8x upside.
2/3
Funding a project at $85 spot implying > $50lb cash margins for 3-5mlb capacity = operating CF US$150-250m 3-4 yrs out
Buying that cap today at $53 spot
US$100m cap = 4-7x return
US$75m = 5-8x
US$50m = 6-10x
3/3
This $30-100m cap group should increase by 150-400% going into $85 spot which reduces the dilution on capex financing

#uranium facts for last week are in ....900klbs traded
Utilities joined in but didn't dominate Vs traders #uranium
Another 2-3mlb pounds to be taken out through the end of May if blue skies are to be enjoyed. But to sustain higher levels, Utilities will need to dominate, near term (<24 months) contracting books need to be nearing capacity to result in continued upward momentum. #uranium
A) job losses and no savings to pay the mortgage, with 35% drop in the property value to exit it.
B) those high on margin will get called and massively hit, likely account implosion
C) 75% wealth hits for those not understanding incoming risks
Survival action to be taken now:
- Dial back unnecessary expenditure
- Pay off credit card debt
- Build a savings buffer > 9 months of expenditure
- Close out margin positions
- Sell non essential assets to build liquidity for incoming risk (job loss, refinancing risk etc)
How do avoid being financially stressed? Live within your means, focus on a high savings rate which leads to freedom. Never live paycheck to paycheck with your credit card as a bridge. Build a investment stack of $300k and learn how to compound at 20% plus.
Our cycle bottom approach allows compounding at 20-30%, resulting in the <30yrs retiring at around 50yrs.
Note our 10x10x10=1000x return thesis within 20yrs.
Things you don't need are plentiful until your investment stack has been achieved:
- no $1000 per month car payment, stick with the 15yr old car for another 5 years
- no Starbucks coffee required, make at home and bring with you
- self prepared picnic as opposed to eating out
