Garnet mime is a profitable acquisition. This is the way I figure it: STBY used 15 million shares to purchase a business (Sweetwater Garnet mine and pay off $1 million in debt). The mine will generate,at the low end of estimate, 12,000 tons of garnet per year. The average revenue from each ton is about $200/ton.
Now, 12000 x 200 = $2.4 million assume gross margins to be 50% profit = $1.2 million
$1.2 million divided by 15 million shares= $.08 per share.
That's nice earnings ON THOSE SHARES USED FOR PURCHASE.
Further, if STBY can bring in another $2 to 4 million (revenue) from vermiculite mining (and exfoliating) this year, that's approx. .02 to .04 per share profit (assuming 50% gross margin, but profit margin could be higher) on the remaining 50 million outstanding shares.
All together: AT THE MINIMUM: $1.2 profit from garnet; $1 million from vermiculite exfoliation and mining; assuming 65 million shares outstanding; that's an EPS = .034 What will investors, and related publications, should really take notice then. Not bad for a company that never made any money in the past. When these numbers are in "black and white" , IMO, STBY will gap up again. STBY will gap up in price also when commercial financing is secured. These two major events that will change the trading range for STBY, probably, forever. |
