I don't think construction will start anytime soon.
I expect 90% share redemptions. That will provide a gross of $30 million from the trust fund. Even worse Niocorp is required to pay $15 million in fees leaving a net of only $15 million.
This is based on 84% average redemption rate for de-SPAC transactions last year and 93% average for December. Spacs that merged in 2022 are down an average of 89% from their 10 dollar ipo.
Even worse we will have to issue 33,548,764 to the 10% that don't redeem and 48,645,707 to the founders. The founders could get an additional 35,226,202 earnout shares if price targets are met.
This is a piss poor financing package.
