RE: RE: RE: Sunday question to gage shareholders Acadie,
Markets do what markets do, and who really knows where the price will end up. We've all seen pretty ludicrous SP's for companies that don't seem to be worth more than a dime.
However, having said that I've posted before on possible ways to calculate the value of an aggregate operation, using discount cash flow analysis. The ranges i've seen go up to $7.
As 4seas and others have stated, you only have to look at other aggregate companies to see where they have gone to. Prior to 2008, Polaris traded over $13, Ascot was trading at $2 when it started producing, ABM has recently seen a rise from $.75 to over $2 - in just three months!
From the perspective of certain investors, HBK represents a steady cash cow, and would be a great place to stick a few million in for a long term investment. If the company stays independent, that could be significant down the road. Expect a move to the TSX, if it doesn't get brought out.
Additionally, any company could take this, buy it for a hundred million, and then immediatelyt declare it on the books as a $1 billion+ asset. That's a pretty significant increase in asset value, and afffects a whole raft of indicators, including credit ratings and investor confidence.
This a valuable property, and although there are still some hurdles to jump though and some risks ahead, no one should be dismissing this stock anymore.
