RE: ASTS

Down 42.6% from 52 week high.

Long-term debt looks good and is down looking at their last 10-Q.

Current ratio looks good.

Cash situation looks a bit rough though.Going into a turbulent economic 2023/2024 they stated in their last 10-Q they had sufficient cash for 12 months at the time of the report. They need to issue shares to fund their CAPEX. They estimate they will need $300-340M to fund their 20 satellites.

Cash & cash equivalents went from $321,787 as of Dec 2021 down to $198,869 in Sept 2022. OPEX increased from $60,328 to $110,268.

Their office leases are non-cancellable in the event they do need to make adjustments.

Interesting concept though and will keep on my radar!

Side note, apologies to all I have been away for a bit. In early Feb I saw some bearish signals with the dollar rally and had switched positioning from value stocks to some short positions (mainly focused on small-caps). Has worked out given the moves in the Russell.

Hope everyone has been well!

Paul Senior,

Re: PXD

Per WSJ “Exxon Mobil has held preliminary talks with Pioneer Natural Resources Co. about a possible acquisition of the U.S. fracking giant, as the oil major hunts for a blockbuster deal in the shale patch”

Better lucky than anything I guess. Bought at 183 a few weeks ago. Sell the news or wait with divided since deal may take a year to finalize? I believe oil runs through the summer.
