Proactive's Tylah Tully breaks down ‘Just the Facts' of the latest news from Tolu Minerals Ltd (ASX:TOK). Tolu has made progress on multiple initiatives as it advances operations at the Tolukuma mine in Papua New Guinea. Key developments include the commissioning of a gravity gold plant, optimisation of access road construction and plans for hydropower infrastructure. The gravity gold plant, built by Appropriate Process Technologies (APT), was completed in December 2024, with cold commissioning finalised the same month. Full commissioning will proceed using lower-grade ore stockpiles to optimise plant performance, with higher-grade ore to follow once the Inspector of Mines grants final approval. Full production will begin immediately after approval. Tolu faced delays in constructing an access road due to extended rainy conditions and landslides. To address these challenges, the company redesigned the route in late 2024 to follow ridge lines, reducing risks of landslips and improving long-term safety and maintenance. While this redesign delays road completion to mid-2025, the new route is expected to enhance operational reliability. In energy infrastructure, Tolu is exploring a Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV) model for refurbishing its hydroelectric power station. Under this approach, an Independent Power Producer (IPP) would build, own and operate the facility under a long-term power purchase agreement, supplying power to both Tolu and the local grid. #ProactiveInvestors #ToluMinerals, #ASX #GoldProduction, #GravityPlant, #MiningInfrastructure, #AccessRoad, #Hydropower, #GoldMining, #PNGMining, #MiningUpdates, #SustainableMining, #OreProcessing, #HydroelectricPower, #MiningOperations, #EngineeringSolutions, #ResourceDevelopment, #RoadConstruction, #MineralExploration, #MiningProjects, #GoldExploration, #EnergyInfrastructure

Diversified Energy CEO Rusty Hutson joined Steve Darling from Proactive to share news regarding an innovative transaction that the company has closed. This transaction has allowed Diversified Energy to unlock additional value from its existing asset base while also improving liquidity and reducing leverage. Diversified Energy is primarily focused on natural gas and liquids production, transportation, marketing, and well retirement. Hutson explained that the company decided to execute a sale of producing assets in Appalachia to a Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV), while retaining a 20% minority interest in the SPV and maintaining operatorship of the assets. This strategic move generated proceeds of approximately $200 million for Diversified Energy, comprising an Asset Backed Securitization placed at the SPV and a sale of an 80% equity interest in the SPV for approximately $30 million. The funds obtained from this transaction were utilized to repay outstanding borrowings under the company's Sustainability-Linked Loan, resulting in an approximate 12% reduction in net debt. In summary, Diversified Energy's innovative transaction underscores its commitment to optimizing its asset base, improving financial flexibility, and reducing leverage. This strategic move positions the company for continued growth and value creation in the energy sector, emphasizing its ability to unlock value from existing assets and enhance liquidity. #proactivinvestors #diversifiedenergycompanyplc #lse #dec #ntse #dec #CEOInterview #EnergyIndustry #InnovationInEnergy #NaturalGas #AssetAcquisitions #FinancialStrategies #2024Outlook #CreativeLeadership #MarketInsights #LNGExport #CostReduction #SmarterAssetManagement #ShareBuybacks #GulfCoastGas #OilProduction #EnergyMarketTrends #InvestmentStrategies #CorporateFinance #BusinessGrowth #USOnshore #AppalachianBasin #CorporateLeadership #EnergySectorNews #MarketAnalysis #invest #investing #investment #investor #stockmarket #stocks #stock #stockmarketnews

This episode delves into the intricate world of real estate funds, focusing on the nuances of Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV) funds versus Co-General Partner (COGP) structures. The hosts discuss the roles, legalities, and strategic advantages of these fund types in the ever-evolving landscape of real estate investment. Key Takeaways to Listen for SPV Funds: SPVs allow investment in syndications without active deal involvement, contrasting with Co-GPs. Active Role in Co-GP: Co-GP requires direct involvement in asset management, unlike SPV funds. SPV's Rising Popularity: SPVs are favored for their operational flexibility and ease of management. SPV vs. Blind Pool Funds: SPVs offer a balance between specific-deal focus and managerial simplicity. Industry Trend: A shift towards SPV structures is predicted, moving away from traditional Co-GP models.   About Tim Mai Tim Mai is a real estate investor, fund manager, mentor, and founder of HERO Mastermind for REI coaches.

Interview mit Philipp Povel, Co-Founder und Co-CEO von Mondu In der Mittagsfolge sprechen wir heute mit Philipp Povel, Co-Founder und Co-CEO von Mondu, über die erfolgreiche Finanzierungsrunde mit einem Darlehen in Höhe von 20 Millionen Euro. Mondo ist ein B2B-Zahlungsunternehmen, welches eine "Buy Now, Pay Later"-Lösung für B2B-Handelsunternehmen und -Marktplätze entwickelt hat. Die Zahlungslösungen bieten Unternehmen in Deutschland und Österreich ihre bevorzugten Offline-Zahlungsmethoden und flexible Zahlungsbedingungen in einem Online-Checkout an. Geschäftskunden haben dabei die Möglichkeit, zu kaufen und zu bezahlen, zu welchem Zeitpunkt sie wollen, was sich in einer höheren Conversion Rate und einem größeren Warenkorb auswirken soll. Firmen, die mit dem FinTech zusammenarbeiten, sind vor dem Ausfallrisiko geschützt, sodass sie sich auf ihr Kerngeschäft konzentrieren und schneller skalieren können. Mondu wurde im Jahr 2021 von Malte Huffmann, Philipp Povel und Gil Danziger in Berlin gegründet, um Zahlungslösungen anzubieten, die es jedem B2B-Unternehmen ermöglichen, schnell und sicher zu wachsen. Mittlerweile beschäftigt das Jungunternehmen mehr als 120 Mitarbeitende. Mondu hat nun auch den Ratenkauf eingeführt. Die neue Lösung ermöglicht es Unternehmen, ihre Einkäufe in gleiche, zinsfreie Zahlungen aufzuteilen, ohne dass zusätzliche oder versteckte Gebühren anfallen. Das Berliner FinTech hat nun in einer Finanzierungsrunde 20 Millionen Euro von der deutschen Vereinigten Volksbank Raiffeisenbank als Darlehen erhalten. Dieses wird an ein in Luxemburg ansässiges Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV) vergeben und ist besichert. Die Gründung des SPVs ermöglicht ein schnelleres Wachstum und die Diversifizierung der Refinanzierung bei externen Investoren. Seit der Gründung des Unternehmens hat Mondu in zwei Finanzierungsrunden insgesamt 57 Millionen US-Dollar von amerikanischen Investoren wie Valar Ventures, Cherry Ventures, FinTech Collective und Angel-Investoren erhalten. Mit dem frischen Kapital möchte das Startup ein neues Büro in den Niederlanden eröffnen, lokales Personal einstellen und in lokale Marketingaktivitäten investieren.

Legal Issues in Equity Crowdfunding Hello, this is Hall T. Martin with the Startup Funding Espresso -- your daily shot of startup funding and investing. There are specific legal issues regarding equity crowdfunding campaigns. Here's a list to keep in mind: The regulations for fundraising are as follows: Reg CF -- SEC designation for an equity crowdfunding raise that lets anyone invest in a startup for equity up to $5M. Reg A+ -- SEC designation for an equity crowdfunding raise that lets anyone invest in a startup for equity up to $75M. Reg D -- SEC designation for a fundraise that requires the investors to be accredited such as an angel investor or venture capitalist. The funds raised on a Reg CF or Reg A+ will be placed in a Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV) which takes one line on the cap table of the company. You can promote your fundraise to your family and friends, but the content must be factual and you cannot include terms.  The terms of the fundraise must be kept on the fundraise platform to ensure all investors receive the same information. All investments must be made on the fundraise platform. You can use SAFE notes, convertible notes, as well as equity for the type of security. You must file a Form C along with two years of GAAP financials. You'll need to file one annual report one year from the date of closing the raise. Keep these legal issues in mind in preparing your fundraise campaign. Thank you for joining us for the Startup Funding Espresso where we help startups and investors connect for funding.Let's go startup something today. ___________________________________ For more episodes from Investor Connect, please visit the site at:   Check out our other podcasts here:   For Investors check out:   For Startups check out:   For eGuides check out:   For upcoming Events, check out   For Feedback please contact info@tencapital.group   Please , share, and leave a review.

In today's episode, Kevin talks to Michael Primrose, a Commercial Finance Broker and Director/Founder of TPEFinance. This is perfect for newbies out there who wants to get funding, raise finances to get their first serviced accommodation up and running in no time. Michael discusses the key things lenders are keen about, the bridge to let products, the development finances, choosing SA managing agents, how to get rent to SA funding and many more. So, make sure to click that play button and put those ear pods on to learn from the finance expert! KEY TAKEAWAYS From standard buy to let to crowd-funding rent to rent. Michael does everything related to property. Objection for lenders No experience of managing or owning SA. Get the best SA business that you can and outsource. Get it systemized to increase your profits. Lenders look at that. Bad reviews stop the lenders to lend you what you need. Bridge to let products It's a long-term bridging lane. 6-7% annum. What you pay per month is only 4-5%. For first-time landlords. There is no exit fee. They're not paying hefty amounts. Arrangement fee is 2-2.5%. A great product and it fits a niche. Development finance People doing refurbs, conversions and even building SAs. Normally, for a £400,000, your deposit will be £100,000. If you use development finance which covers 80-90% of your total cost (purchase and refurb), that £100,000 could cover a potential million end value. Leveraging serviced accommodation managing agents who you can partner with. Partner with someone who is more experienced than you. If you've got no experience in SA and given it to someone who's reputable, lenders can take a lot them, track record, and reviews. Rent to SA funding Equity crowd-funding. Set up a Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV). Sell shares in that SPV. There are a lot of crowd-funding platforms you could use online. BEST MOMENTS “What comes down to when they're looking at the property is the fact that you can't uplift the value of that property because it's a flat, house or whatever. It's the business that's worth the money.” “If they look for conversion or new builds, there's actually more profit to make.” VALUABLE RESOURCES Progressive Property TPEFinance ABOUT THE HOST Kevin Poneskis, also known as the Property Soldier, has been a full-time property investor and mentor since 2011.
