Just an estimate

What is described below is just an estimate and based on the VR entities actually having 222,928,470 shares.

I would like to see the VR Entities take a JV interest in Energizer's Madagascar -Green Giant Graphite and Vanadium Properties- by surrendering a percentage of their share holdings to Energizer for a similar percentage in the JV.

 

Energizer would hold the shares tendered in their treasury for future developments of the properties. Perhaps JP Morgan, Chase might also join the JV, if not, they might provide the mine development loan. DRA could handle the mining part of JV partners interest.

 

Lets say that VR takes a 50% interest in the JV. It would mean that VR would have to give up half of Energizers 344,135,670 shares or 172,067,835 shares leaving VR with (222,928,470 - 172,067,835) or 50,860,635 shares of Energizer. Furthermore,if the Security Registration Statement of 06/19/2015 hasn't changed, then JP Morgan, Chase has 33,393,600 shares and Energizer Company Insiders have 34,516,000 shares. If such a JV occurred those closely held shares would amount to roughly (50..86 + 33.39 + 34.52) or 118.77 Million shares. With the 172.07 Million shares tended to Energizer for VR's 50% JV interest it would make (172.07 + 118.77) or 290.84 shares leaving only about 53.37 Million shares for trading.

 

If such a JV as described above occurred, one could imagine the upward pressure on the share price of which Energizer would have 172.07 in its treasury.

I wonder if that's why "the banks" continue to tell management not to worry about the share price.

VR Capital has an 11.3% stake in the company.  It's not over 50%.  They have invested in several of the financings.

StoogeNo4... The reason I indicated -it was just an estimate-was that the US Security Exchange Commission complicates things with long winded reports making it difficult for us small investors to fully understand their reports. Still on the Statement of Ownership (sc 13g) https://ih.advfn.com/p.php?pid=nmona&article=69851142 It shows 6 separate VR entities as owning shares of Energizer ...more

River, I spoke to management, and they feel that there is a lot of misinterpretation going on regarding the 13g form.  VR Capital (plus entities) does not own over 50% of Energizer.  It's actually around 12% all in.  Again, that's according to management. BTW, I did ask again about visiting.  They said I could come almost any time at this point.  I couldn't ...more

Thank you for your answer StoogeNo4..  Have you noticed that in the US ENZR had no trades for the last two sessions.What could be the reason? Can the exchange rate give buying in EGZ a better deal?
Comment by StoogeNo4 on Jan 08, 2016 1:37pm
Yes, I have noticed low volume.  I think the exchanges will be very close in price despite the 72% discount on the Canadian dollar.  People are trading in fractions of pennies now, so if the trade was for a very large number of shares, there might be a benefit to buying on the TSX.  But I'm not seeing huge singular trades that would make it worthwhile. I've had a buy order ...more
