Seems to me they paid a bit more than some other mob was going to pay. Other mob (early Oct) was going to pay $10 mill. WGX is paying 9 mill plus 6 mill in royalties.... so $15 mill.
Anyway, I bought some more at the auction today (80 cents). Pretty soon the share price will be free!
Here is my thinking. Last fin year was a mess. But they did make a little money (a very little). So if the price of gold goes up (it has and is) they should be a good buy. They are currently priced like losing (big losing) mine(s) with no upside. Their NTA is $1.12 (I think that is the price). So they are trading as if they will never make money from mining.
Now, in their most recent presentations, they present themselves as a 350k oz per year producer at 1300 AISC. So my calculator says (at $1800 AUD gold price) $500 per oz profit x 350000 = $175mill per year. Their current market cap is $320 mill.
So, that tells the market is a fool or Cookie is a fool. Would you pay $320 mill for a company that makes $175mill a year profit.
Now whenever this disconnect shows up there is some big info you are hearing. But..... some 'insiders' with all the info bought $20 mill at 90 cents. Cookie himself stumped in $400k at 89 cents. So my 80 cent buy is as a sucker fish slurping on the fins or Mr Sophisticated Insider and the Cookie Monster.
(dont tell my wife I bought more)
