RE:RBC etcI am sure the "RBC report has a lot of interesting analysis, especially on Volta and the valuation of it".
You stated "It looks like he values Volta today at 35 cents per GRA share. That would rise a bit if a completed package is announced. That is consistent with the $20 million MRE sold 50% back to GRA for it".
Yes. I have great confidence that his numbers pan out just fine. Although, it is not, in my opinion, so much the analysts emphasized numbers which would have NanoXplore's share price appreciate exponentially much more than a mere $0.35 per share; it's the additional intersecting angles, so to speak, which would be more so made to support exponentially well beyond a mere $0.35 increase in NanoXplore's share price.
In emphasizing that NanoXplore could be selling up to "70% of Volta once the funding is complete", you rightly point to just one of the "intersecting and additionally supporting angles" which I've alluded to as also supporting a exponentially greater than mere $0.35 value being added to the NanoXplore share price going forward.
By the way, it could very well be the case that a nearer to controlling equity interest or a outright controlling equity interest in the VoltaXplore enterprise may be "leveraged" as part in parcel of securing the remaining $125 Million worth of capital needed to commence the construction and allow for the completion of and operation of the VoltaXplore 2 GWh battery cells manufacturing capacity facility.
To reiterate, the sale of or "levering up" of up to 70% equity control of VoltaXplore doesn't have to happen expressly after the VoltaXplore financing package is finalized. That could necessarily happen as part in parcel of acquiring the remaining additional $125 Million or 25% of the overall $500 Million VoltaXplore project capital.
Also, it's worth recalling that $375 Million from the overall $500 Million worth of capital required has already been secured in one form or another and the leveraging of NanoXplore's 100% equity ownership of the VoltaXplore enterprise may have already "contingently" been agreed upon with NanoXplore's additional capital investing "partners" and customers.
