The Financial Landscape: Valuations, Proceeds, and Long-Term Projections
If shareholders approve the merger, the combined entity anticipates issuing an impressive 151,970,541 common shares and 18,350,000 warrants. The pro forma equity valuation is estimated at a substantial $1.3 billion, with an expected gross proceeds of $280 million. However, investors should note the long-term nature of this venture; commercial sales and profitability are not projected until 2034, underscoring the speculative character of this investment.
