EV could be US$10bn+ given likely growth trajectory if we hit US$600m EBITDA by then. Debt/equity mix who knows but say 30/70. And how much existing equity vs future - dunno but if share price starts to reflect upside then dilution can be kept within reasonable boundaries. 50/50?

But first we need the next set of flow rates. With two wells on the go and no shortage of expertise and equipment, Shock ‘n Awe by Easter is highly likely. Then the wheels can start turning.
