Macreas is a high cost operations (but will deliver useful cashflow for another 7-8 years), and probably also needs some capex for mine development to access new ore bodies, in addition to expenditure on Waihi and doing whatever is needed for Haile. Given general market uncertainty I am loath to enter this doggie, but may consider it if it gets really cheap. May be best to wait until the September quarterly report has revealed the dross, or some time after the US elections. At least net debt will now look much better, and they now have some cash from which to pay shareholders their 1 or 2 cent annual dividend on fictitious accounting profits. Good luck all. loki

it implies a much worse result yet to arrive and the cash is burning fast. It was unfortunate to get caught in the high cap low cash issue and Haile suffers from COVID. Good Luck to all and perhaps 180 would be a fair value until things settle.
