RE:RE:Was I fair to say John Budreski is a fan of Streaming deals? In addition to being a negotiating tactic, or card to play, would a streaming deal be so bad?
I don't know, because I haven't looked into it much. I am starting to see it as an option.
Let's say for example there's a small explorer with plenty of outstanding shares, who believes they are undervalued.
Could a streaming deal for a percentage of output be better than issuing shares or taking on debt?
In some respects isn't it like borrowing, except repayment is deferred & in gold?
Could a streaming deal be a better way to realize the value of the resources, than isuing shares?
Could the answer to all 3 be yes?
On the other hand, does anyone know how much it might interfere with an acquisition? I would think it could cut the price received. In effect, isn't a buyer getting 95% or 97% of whatever the output is? This example contemplates a streaming deal for 3-5% of output. Which sounds a bit like diluting share value. Hmmm...
