And yes no buyout is likely until P results. That is a very big potential value factor.

One thing about buyouts: aside from the PV estimate, a minor consideration is share price history. Target company managements tend to push for a price that is higher than "recent" share price high. It acts like a deal floor, though in no way a hard floor. In the negotiations, if that high is within the PV range, the target would try to anchor the price negotiation there. Eg, "Offer our SP high plus 20%". That would be around $6, which is about $1B fully diluted.

Incidentally, the flip side also must be acknowledged: in some circumstances the acquirer would try to anchor that price as a ceiling. "Hey, we're offering you 20% above what any of your shareholders might have paid".

Anyway this is a very minor point and idle talk. By far the major factor is estimated PV. Everything starts from there.
