dear mr. taig, page-2

I was just about to pose the same question when I read yours Juju

this exercise is supposedly about expedition of growth.
there are two types of company growth, per share (the important one to us), per mcap by dilution (the important one to us for the wrong reasons)

(A) How long in our current format would it take us to get to 250ozkpa?
How long if we were to raise say $20mil for a much lesser (B) dilution say 15% (600m shares at 3.5c)
(C) How long with SG will it take to get to 500ozkpa (equivelent to 245ozkpa of current format given we will only own 49% of it)?

I'd like to hear assessments of this from Pinto, CW, F&F, Kentwang, Derham, and the many other knowlegdeable posters I havent mentioned.

And the obvious final question, is the time saved worth half our company, in value, in control of destiny, in risk of becomming an acquisition vehicle?

some very cursory guesses to get the ball rolling:
A: 5 years? (possibly accelerateable by a year or 2 on strong POG)
B: 3 Years?
C: 1 Year assuming we do most of the increases by acquisition
C: Organically, probably the same as B

To me A or B are the no brainer winners, A my favourite, B probably better for management, C you've got to be bloody joking?

I'm all ears & open minded to hearing the oposing arguement.

This could set the scene for the debate we need to have, I probably didnt need to start a new thread with my last post, I just got a bit confused as to which was the best thread going to add it on to & overcooked my wee brain.
