Disagree.
This is quite simply the realistic views of the professional evaluators versus a hyped up ASX/LSE listed entity who has made comments such as 100 - 200x increase and 3bln recoverable even after being shown the IRR clearly shows that they (88e) are incorrect based on all current known facts.
Its like a new startup developer I had to listen to today ramble on about the $1.5m profit hes going to make in the enxt 12 months.
He said the 5 houses would sell for $550k each, I said they are tiny low budget townhouses on a small entire block, community titled, etc etc and would not sell for more than $410k each.
Valuation report and QS report came back today showing $395-$418k each.
This is the difference between pleasure and pain.
The overzealous tend to overshoot, and yes occasionally the valuer under quotes to cover internal and external expectations.
That being said, the report showed to me this is 100% uneconomical and will never be in production.
Its up to DW/PB and the company to prove otherwise, then find a farmer.
