Offtakes for less than 3 years and no finance. Graphite market at a low and just starting to pick up. Great opportunity to buy BAT stock low and push the price down.
Meanwhile the market demand is picking up nicely now:
- steel market demand for graphite picking up

BAT will turn around very quickly as soon as the market sees the off take deals and hence finance are there for longer term and for the stage 2 production levels.
just the way I see it, good things take time .... but maybe not much more time.
