The question is how quickly are they going to start realising cash flow through the newly set-up antwerp sales office. Their current inventory of diamonds along with ongoing production could see +ve cash flow within the next 2 quarters. Not to mention the possibility of one off discoveries & exploration upside. Lets not forget the largest diamond ever found in AU was at Merlin along with blues, yellow, pinks and greens.
As per Empire Capital Report..
Low Range Scenario: Average grade – 15cpht, Price/carat –USD$225/ct to generate AUD$0.12M monthly free cash flow and AUD$1.41M annual free cash flow.
• Base Scenario: Average grade – 25cpht, Price/carat – USD$300/ct to generate AUD$3.05M monthly free cash flow and AUD$36.61M annual free cash flow.
• Blue-sky Scenario: Average grade – 35cpht, Price/carat – USD$350/ct to generate AUD$6.43 monthly free cash flow and AUD$77.14M annual free cash flow.
If the base scenario is achievable then current borrowings are negligible.
