    Ahh I didnt know that. In which case, on market buybacks and franked dividends are best.

    It's so hard to justify selling an asset with

    a market cap of 8.7 billion
    cash of 1.9 billion (end of september quarter)
    and banking over a billion NPAT each quarter.

    (8.7-1.9)/1 = 6.8 quarters to pay back entire market cap. Sure prices probably won't hold so high. But I think its fair to assume this quarter + next 2 quarters will be closer to 4 billion.

    So the company is basically being valued at 2.8 billion after cash come July next year. Which even if coal price drops to $150 is still 700m of earning. Coal price would have to catastrophically crash to lose money on this
