NMT: dividend due (tomorrow?)

  1. 31 Posts.
    Tomorrow is the anniversary of NMT's last dividend announcement, and I believe we can reasonably expect that a 2017 dividend announcement is imminent.

    Neometals Declares 2 cent Unfranked Dividend
    11 August 2016
    "NMT… is pleased to advise that it has declared an unfranked dividend of 2 cents per share… total amount paid to shareholders will be approx. $11.3M."

    Why pay a dividend now?
    • NMT has $46M in cash, plus net receivables and listed securities of $16.5M
    • Mt Marion is now cash flow positive
    • Mt Marion is now receiving higher pricing from Ganfeng US$841/t up from US$750/t
    • Mt Marion 4% floatation plant upgrade commissioning on track to lift all output to 6% grade
    • Throughput of the beneficiation plant surpassing nameplate, on track for 400kt p/a
    • All other current programs are fully funded from cash

    A dividend would be consistent with NMT board policy, as the company has previously returned surplus cash to shareholders via two x 2c dividends in 2016.
