QTRADERQ, with this Huge CYPE Find...

All I can say is wow! I still haven't had time to sit down and really read through everything in detail and organize many thoughts. This piece of intel had gotten by me so thanks for bringing it to my attention. THIS IS HUGE!

Milost is a $25 Billion company. What you posted basically confirms that CYPE/Ibeto Cement Company is in a partnership with Milost, a $25 Billion company to where its $850 Million financing package will be used as the model for future financing packages going forward:

Two interesting quotes from Milost Global Inc provider of $850M financing to Ibeto Cement.

Solly S. Asibey, Senior Partner & CIO of Milost Global Inc., stated,
“International equity, coupled with the diversification of our investment portfolio is key to our strategy for growth in emerging markets. Excellence, innovation, unparalleled strategy, industry knowledge, favourable IRR and strong leadership epitomises the partnership between Milost and Chief Cletus Ibeto. This is a great investment opportunity for Milost, and the financial engineering behind the structuring of the transaction will catapult Ibeto Cement to exceptional heights.”

Kim Freeman, Managing Partner & CEO of Milost Global Inc., also stated,
“Ibeto Cement is an important investment for Milost in Nigeria and indeed Africa. We expect this transaction to provide a template for our other investments in Africa which will continue to enhance the value of the companies we invest in as well as value for our investors.”

I'm curious what's everyone thoughts on this "financial engineering" and "template" which they referred to in their quotes. There's something BIG HERE (JMO). Something performance related if Ibeto reaches certain financial metrics & milestones. Perhaps they will be making a large capital investment into Ibeto Cement at some point in exchange for Preferred "non-dilutive" shares. Milost clearly said "it epitomizes a PARTNERSHIP" .

Dilution

Did you factor dilution into your valuation estimates? From the PR, Ibeto is going to own at least 70% of the company. He's already mentioned raising capital from the public markets and Milost appears that it will also own some of the public entity. What's going to be left for investors in the shell?

I doubt the CEO of Ibeto is going to hand over a huge chunk of his company to owners of a shell that basically provided no value add. That's not to say that this won't overshoot and be a good trading opportunity, but buyer beware as investors in the shell will get diluted down markedly. Best thing would be for them to take their time to file the specifics on the deal so exuberance can build in the stock.

Wow. Maybe they have more funding agreed to if certain goals are met. How high should we put our sells?
