Technology Minerals CEO on black mass and Leinster milestones

Technology Minerals CEO Alex Stanbury talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about a milestone week for the company, highlighting significant progress in both its recycling operations and exploration asset portfolio. Stanbury discussed the first shipment of black mass from its Recyclus facility to Europe, under an agreement with Glencore. He explained that black mass—a hazardous material containing lithium, cobalt, and nickel—requires complex approvals for cross-border movement. “It’s been a lot of work in the making to get this black mass moved off-site,” Stanbury said, noting this completes a critical part of the company’s business model. He also commented on the importance of the Glencore partnership, stating that “for Glencore to have the faith to work with us…is really important.” This collaboration ensures a consistent offtake of all Recyclus production. Stanbury also confirmed Recyclus is working with Ocado, managing end-of-life batteries from their robotic systems. The company uses its proprietary LiBoxes to safely store and transport used lithium-ion batteries, providing safety and ESG compliance. “We’ve done thousands of batteries for them now and there’s an ongoing maintenance programme,” he added. Finally, Technology Minerals has completed the sale of its Leinster lithium project in Ireland, aligning with its strategy of incubating early-stage assets and moving them up the value curve. The company is now focused on its Spanish project, which benefits from EU interest in critical materials and battery manufacturing. It expects further licenses to be granted soon and aims to seek JV partners to bring the project toward feasibility and production.

Chesnara CEO discusses strong 2024 results, dividend growth and M&A outlook

Chesnara PLC (LSE:CSN) CEO Steve Murray talked to Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s strong 2024 full-year results, highlighting robust cash generation and consistent dividend growth. Murray highlighted that Chesnara generated £60 million in cash over the year, providing strong dividend coverage and supporting its 20-year track record of uninterrupted dividend growth. The business also increased its overall value and maintained a strong solvency position. The interview also covered Chesnara’s acquisition strategy, with Murray detailing the second Canada Life deal, which delivered an uplift in economic value to £11 million—higher than the £8 million initially expected—off a £2 million consideration. He explained that Chesnara currently holds around £200 million in acquisition firepower, supported by a solvency capital ratio of 203%. Murray described the current M&A pipeline as “positive,” noting that a reduction in private equity competition is opening up new opportunities in the UK and Benelux. He also commented on broader macroeconomic conditions, noting that despite some volatility, Chesnara’s long-term outlook remains stable due to natural hedges and long-duration contracts. Looking ahead to 2025, Murray reiterated Chesnara’s confidence in maintaining dividend growth, underpinned by strong visibility on future cash flows well above required commitments.

Straker explained how the business evolved from early content management systems into a leading AI-powered translation platform over the last 15 years.
