For those of you who don't like math, please move to the next post. But for those of you who would like to trace where we should be regardless of the NAL outcome (and can stand a little math) read on.

Here is my calculator comparing Sayona to Piedmont.

Gather Information

		Shares (in billions)	Market Cap	Resource Size in Mt Measured & Indicated
1	Sayona	1.4	$1,046,317,500	.4
2	Piedmont	3.74	$134,626,042	.5

First I need to create a ratio using the shares on issue. I do this by dividing SYA / PLL, which = 1.4 / 3.74 = .37 (rounded) or 37%. This ratio gets us apples to apples on the 2 so if all else was equal between the 2 Sayona’s share price should be equal to about 37% of Piedmonts share price. This would put Sayona at around 27 cents.

Now you could say but wait doesn’t Piedmont own 20% of Sayona, and also purchased 25% of Sayona Quebec so isn’t about 40% of piedmonts price directly coming from Sayona? There is a little problem with timing here because we only know that piedmont acquired 9.9% thus far with the remainder to happen in February (no specific date given which usually means by the end of the month). Nevertheless we will take the 40% of the Piedmont price before we apply the 37% ration.

So now we have .75 * .4 = .3 so the starting price should be .75 - .3 = .45

Now we can apply our ratio and we come up with .45 *.37 = .1665 or about 17 cents a share.

We still have one more thing to do because the actual resource sizes are not the same either. Sayona is actually 25% larger than Piedmont so we need to add this in as well. .1665 * 1.25 = .2081

So a fair price today comparing these 2 would be about .21 AUD cents a share.

Reminder that this calculation is only using data related to Authier, it does not factor in Tansim or NAL or Gold or Graphite or WA Lithium, and I have chosen to call the off-take agreements equal even though Sayona’s is for a much longer time and for a greater quantity (1/2 for sayona for 14 years and 1/3 for Piedmont for 5 years)


I know there are additional variables that can and should be applied to get this perfect, but I am confident that none of those small variances could ever get us close to our current .036 price.

This is my research, this is my opinion.... I do not want anyone to buy or sell based on what I have posted here. I just want to share my thoughts and give you just a small hint of why I am so patinate about this stock.
