Isn't there the potential that without the JV they will run out of money and need to sell shares to keep the doors open?

Not really. They are pretty damn flush with cash. We'll find out exactly what it looks like in Feb.

Without the JV, they've got nothing to spend the money on. Much more likely to run out of money and need another fundraising once JV is executed as then their capex expenditures will skyrocket and they still won't have revenue for a couple years.

I mean theoretically they could not have Lanxess on board and just proceed with developing Tetra, at least partially, with the $100M they raised from Koch.

I'm cautiously optimistic that we reached the bottom today at ~$6.68. This was also about the bottom during the Blue Orca fiasco.

They just need slightly better PR and I think it would stabilize the price


To be fair, if they had better PR, there wouldn't be a bunch of us here on a money subforum of an LSU board, with a lower cost basis than Koch Industries. So I'm cool with it, as I've seen enough to not think it is a scam or anything like that. I do a lot of business with Canadians to the tune of a couple million worth of purchases annually, mostly toronto based and montreal based, not west coast Canadians like SLI, but I can say SLI is exactly what I would expect. Canadians are smart, and don't play the games that american businesses do, and are in general, more trustworthy. They do things on their own schedule, never in a rush to do anything; I deal with a huge company in quebec that straight up takes off almost a month at the end of the year for holidays. However, they tend to simply not do something unless it's high quality, and they are supremely tight lipped compared to americans; you don't hear about something happening until it is happening.

I think alot of this is just panic from individual investors, and a company like this is right in the blast zone of interest rate panic. Look at the institutional ownership, it's still under 20%. I would love to plow in more money, but it's 25% of my portfolio now, and I just don't see whats coming to sooth the weak hands; and why Koch, SLI, or other institutaional investors would care to stop this plunge with PR with nothing of substance. I would think they probably don't mind pushing out a bunch of these small shareholders at this point in the timeline.

However, I will say my only orders in the last 2 weeks have been buys. I wouldn't be surprised to see it go lower. I feel like we are at the midpoint of the interest hike panic; things tend to go from overbought to oversold, they don't stop in the middle. I would advise anyone who wants to get in and get out this year, to probably not overweight themselves on this one, but I still think it's a great investment.

The turtle vs. the rabbit is a nice little story about an overconfident and not so smart rabbit losing the race. Slow and steady wins, but "rabbits" in this race are not going to take a nap.

Sure wish we had that JV agreement signed, sealed and delivered.

I'd sure hope so. I think between options and commons Mintak has ~2-3M shares exposure so he's down like $10-15M from the high last fall.

Based on what?


Based on it trading consistently in that range before the meteoric rise in the second half of last year, which was largely based on hope of JV. If the company continues to move slow or not give updates on progress it can easily get back into that range before we see a rise again second 1/2 if this year.
