Article from 2020:
Unlike multiple others in the ASX gold space, dividends have not been paid to Silver Lake's owners.No large capital projects appear to be on the drawing board.That leaves M&A action an obvious possibility.Standard business practice would suggest at some point a lazy balance sheet should be put to work.Or some other capital management initiative unveiled.Can Tonkin cut a deal with the owner of a quality asset that would be transformational for Silver Lake?
So Tonkin has some form on the M&A front, and the deals done in 2019 did ‘transform' Silver Lake from a one operation company.But what about a next generation transformational acquisition, one to take Silver Lake up towards or beyond the half-a-million ounce per annum production mark?And one that drives down overall costs 20-30% and closer to the $1000 per ounce mark that would better future-proof the company in the case of a lower gold price environment.In keeping with his apparent autocratic nature, Tonkin didn't bother responding to MNN's interview request.
