Galan Lithium Ltd’s Post

Welcoming our new CEO & Director Mr. R. Nicholas Horsley! Mr. Horsley has over 19 years of public markets experience focused on finance, investor relations, marketing, management, and merger and acquisitions. Mr. Horsley has served as a director and a consultant to several public and private companies and has experience in a variety of industries, including mineral exploration, telecom, consumer packaged goods, e-sports and technology. Mr. Horsley will also fill the vacant secretary and chief financial officer position on an interim basis. American Salars’ president and CEO, Mr. Horsley, states: “I am excited to join this seasoned team and help to build a premier lithium company. We are long-term believers in an increasing lithium carbonate price and that lithium brines are the quickest and most economic path to a production scenario. The amount of lithium M&A in the last 48 months exceeds $20-billion with over $3-billion in M&A and strategic funding already in 2024. I am excited to expand on the work done at the Candela II lithium project with its maiden inferred resource estimate of 457,000 tonnes LCE and test the additional zone at the 400-metre level, identified by the projects MT survey and consistent with our neighbour Gangfeng’s resource.” Learn about our growing 457,000 tonne inf lithium resource in Argentina at AmericanSalars.com* $USLI.c 🇨🇦 $ASALF 🇺🇸 $Z3P 🇩🇪 #LithiumInvesting #BatteryTechStocks #GreenEnergyInvestment #EVStocks #LithiumMarket #RenewableEnergyStocks #CleanTechInvesting #investing #stocks #smallcaps #fyp #foryoupage

Are you ready to raise capital? Through our research, we’ve identified 1,169 exploration / development stage mining companies listed on Canadian exchanges, approximately 645 of which are down to less than 6 months’ worth of cash available, according to data pulled from S&P Capital IQ. This suggests many of these companies have a short time frame to raise capital to continue their operations and advance their plans. This raises a key question for issuers both public and private; Has your firm done the advance preparation work required to facilitate a capital raise? The answer to this question is important.  Being prepared can impact financing success in a number of ways. Foremost among them is ensuring the issuer has the ability to execute quickly when capital markets are receptive, or, when a potential lead order comes forward.   Before reaching out to a bank or an investor in on a potential raise, issuers are well served to gauge where they sit on a basic check list; ·      Data Room: is it set up? If so, does it contain current financials, board minutes, and material agreements? Has an arm’s length party reviewed it to identify inconsistencies or gaps? ·      Capital Plan: can the issuer clearly calibrate their capital requirements, linking needs to outcomes and including time frames for deployment / impact? ·      Financial Model: is it built?  If so, does the model have dynamic inputs that can be used to test forecast sensitivities?   Is it user-friendly for an outside party? ·      Corporate Presentation:  preparing a concise financing deck usually requires more lead time than is available during the immediate pre-launch of a financing. Often what gets overlooked when rushing is factual accuracy / completeness on content that investors care about, capitalization table, ownership listing, and detailed breakdown of dilutives. ·      Price Protection: for publicly listed companies, application for price protection may be required, depending on targeted timing. For issuers who have an imminent need for capital, it’s never too early to get started.

2023 is steaming to a close and reflecting on the year, our Perth M&A team has worked on an eclectic mix of mid-market transactions including the Australian Business Growth Fund’s first investment in a WA business, the sale of civil contractor Melchor to Monadelphous, the sale of a non-core thermal coal asset on behalf of a global major, plus a bunch of interesting industrial trade sales.   So what may 2024 hold for mid-market M&A in WA?   I am definitely not one to accurately predict the future, but if I must guess based on current deal flow, I expect:   We continue to see generational change and succession issues drive well established private businesses to seek change of control. Family Offices become increasingly active in early-stage equity funding, where there is a growing capital void under the floor of mid-market Private Equity. For the first time since 2021, we may see a return of IPO being a viable growth option for established private businesses. The private debt market continues to be an interesting source funding for lower mid-market M&A transactions.   Sectors to watch in WA?  Apart from the usual sectors like mining services and energy, one to watch could be agri, where there remains significant demand for large quality assets from well-funded institutional buyers.   Either way, we are blessed to live in WA.  Time for a break and to enjoy the best the State has to offer.
