QPM's debt financing is making progress. An important milestone was reached with a German supplier collaboration agreement as well as German Funding support. German companies Plinke GmbH and Andritz Separation GmbH & Siemens LTD have agreed with supplying a significant proportion of capital equipment required for the TECH PROJECT. Germany's Export Credit agency provided a tied loan guarantee of 500 million and Kfw IPEX confirmed an interest in providing 250 million.
QPM currently has A$1.4 billion in conditional debt funding. Investors await the potential debt commitments of K-Sure and other commercial banks. Investors also await an equity component here. QPM has done exceptionally well despite the economic climate but it is important to be objective as their 2.1b capex total remains a significant hurdle. A high level of risk is still involved here (despiting Stephen Grocott and his team continually derisking this project!). I have personally reduced my holdings out of concern of current macro conditions.
From a charting perspective, QPM has been in a deep downtrend since October 2022. QPM has experienced reprieve after the german supplier collaboration on the 4th of April. Without it, the ticker was in the doldrums experiencing a death cross on 7th December 2022. Any impulsive movement above the top trendline (15c to 17c) alongside a corrective flat in that range will constitute a buy signal. Any movement like this would probably coincide with further debt financing progress. Can Stephen Grocott and his team bring this home?
