Because if they didn't have the $65M equity raising they would be underwater last quarter? I think they are spending too much as their "growth and exploration" costs are sky high. They have lumped pre-stripping in with exploration to hide the true cost of production.
In the next quarter I think their total spend will be around 120M inclusive of interest and loan repayments. If they produce 45,000 in the next quarter, they need to realise a gold price of $2,700/oz to break even. Considering they have a hedge at $2,420/oz I think they would only end up with a realised price of around $2,550/oz.
By my calc's they would be $10M in the red for the quarter. Their focus needs to be on cost control to turn the operation around and $14M in corporate overheads per year should be a start.
I'm not a holder, although I've always had an avid interest in RED. I would like to see them succeed, but they have a lot of hard work to do.
