There it is. Placement / Cap raise.

The SC has dealt them a bad hand, but can we agree that the company has played this hand very poorly?

Well the placement should keep the wolf from the door.

The investor must have confidence in the outcome of the court hearing.

Yeah, I just wish they did it 2 weeks ago. Seems they couldn't keep it above the required 2 quarters cash remaining. Anyway we'll find out Wednesday

I don't agree. Everything is easy to figure out afterwards. Of course, with today's knowledge it would have been better to raise double the amount during the previous CR. But if they had done that and the court's ruling had come in this week, everyone would have been angry because Talga issued too many shares at too low a price.

I am convinced that Talga and Mark have done everything they can to handle this well, it is simply bad luck that the legal system in Sweden is so rotten. If the incoming capital helps us to bridge the coming period well, then there is no problem in the long term. The appeals are rejected with 98% certainty based on historical results, from there the financing from the EIB, among others, comes through and the world looks very different. With 420 million shares outstanding (in the case of an additional 40 million to be issued), Talga still has a relatively low amount of shares in circulation.

Some people may be too positive here, but it's clear that you're on the extremely negative end of the spectrum. Both are unrealistic and I wonder what your motivations are for this.

Self note/off topic:

Previous attempts to establish this thread as Updates only, without discussion failed about 50% of the time (like this time) and without the power to police this thread effectively (in form of moving posts from here to the Discussion thread), its time to conclude that this idea doesnt work in our community. No matter how much positive feedback there was last time I posed the question. The "Updates only" part breaks essentially every time something happens where people want to engage.

Dont get me wrong, its not good nor bad, it was an experiment after all. I prefer the community does things naturally without putting everything in shape artificially. Now back to our regular program of discussing the CR.

Loyalty Options Prospectus

1725307441536.png


First up, THANK YOU Talga for extending the reach on the options distribution to outside Australia and New Zealand. As we never can participate in offers and the spread on shares is much larger here than in Australian market (we basically pay 3 to 5% extra in each buy and get 3 to 5% less in each sell), this is very much appreciated!

It obviously means that Talga has decided that in a year from now, the company gets diluted by up to 12.5% at 0.55AUD a share. Thats like the most recent offer, but in the future. All we can do is buy these shares at that point to the given price. If the share price is above the 0.55AUD at the time, its worth it either in coughing up the money directly or selling shares and increasing the owned volume by the difference. If the share price is much higher, this means that Talga gets relatively less money for the dilution. If the share price is close to 0.55AUD, its nearly no impact compared to a normal offer and if its below 0.55 AUD, they expire pretty much worthless.

Its a gamble. For each individual share holder, its obviously in their personally best interests to have these options and exercise them when the time comes. I imagine one can do that before the expiry date too. Globally, one wants the opposite and minimize the dilution at a suppressed level. Its an interesting conundrum we have here.

Anyway, best of luck to everyone! Especially Talga and again, thank you very much to go through that trouble. ❤️

Answer to question 2023/24:1100 by Isak From (S)
Talga's letter to the government

Isak From has asked the Minister of Energy and Industry if she and the government intend to take any initiatives in connection with Talga's letter to the government.

The work within the government is so divided that it is I who will answer the question.

Talga AB has submitted a letter stating that the government, with the support of ch. 11 Section 15 of the Planning and Building Act (2010:900) must order Kiruna municipality to adopt a new detailed plan through a so-called planning order to enable the mining of graphite, which is a strategic raw material used for the manufacture of anodes for lithium-ion batteries.

The government shares Talga AB's and Isak From's attitude that the establishment of new mines - not least those that can contribute to the green transition and strengthen Sweden's competitiveness - is an important issue for Sweden's economy as well as for the environment.

Talga AB's letter on planning injunction is currently being prepared within the Government Office.

It appears Talga has been granted the processing concession, despite lacking final result of the SC on the environmental permit. (Thx Gvan for making me aware of the news!)


Translation:

Yes to graphite mine outside Vittangi​

Updated today 12:36Published today 12:03
The mountain state now says yes to the grant Talga AB processing concession for the graphite discovery Nunasvaara outside Vittangi in Kiruna municipality.
"The congregation has national interest," said Bergmästare Helena Kjellson.
The area is part of Talga AB’s major graphite project, which includes four deposits. The current deposit is in an area that is designated as national interest for valuable substances or materials.

'Great mineral access'​

“This is a high-quality graphite discovery and the applicant’s tests have shown that it can be processed into materials for the production of lithium-ion batteries. The area is judged to contain a large mineral resource, says Helena Kjellson.

There has been a lot of opposition to the plans for a graphite mine, including from residents in the area.
An amendment to the Minerals Act, which took effect on 1 July 2024, has enabled the mountain master to grant a processing concession even though the issue of Natura 2000 permit is not finally settled.

'Good housekeeping'​

“The concession means good management of resources by enabling the extraction of a deposit of national interest,” says Bergmästare Helena Kjellson.
Talga AB submitted its application to the Mountain State in 2020.
“A further authority now confirms the validity and importance of this project, incidentally at a time where the need for its own supply of graphite in the EU is becoming increasingly tangible,” said Martin Phillips, CEO of Talgas.

If this trend continues, we might just go ahead without resolving the SC case. As it should be, since we got the Natura2000 permit already. It should be illegal to stop the project until the SC has made up its mind. How it should be: Talga can start working as soon as the environmental court gives the permit. But when it is appealed AND the appeal is successful, THEN the work has to be stopped until a further decision is made. but thats just my opinion of course.

Still, a very good development and I am glad that is out of the way, even though it never provided any friction so far. I would expect an Ann tomorrow to confirm this.

And here is the Ann corresponding to the news from yesterday:

Approval of Mine Exploitation Concession

In my opinion a very good announcement! No fluff, pure information, statements that make sense without the need to digg for their meaning, good information. I LOVE this type of Ann. Please read. Especially note the section about the Supreme Court progress (which we already know, but good to have confirmed) and the fact that the concession can be appealed as well (grrrr!).
