The board of ANS is considered smart to invest $750 K in SDL's shares because they can see the great potential of SDL as a world class iron ore producer. If the share price of SD going to North and fly to sky, ANS will gain from the appreciation of their 750K investment in SDL. All the best to ANS shareholders in this context.
The change in reason for the suspension reveals that ANS will raise fund to make a strategic investment. However, ANS may have limitation to raise immediate large equity fund because ANS might have almost reached their 15 per cent shares issuance capacity without shareholders' approval. They may still have another 10 per cent capacity i.e., around 500 million new shares which could be issued.
This proves that my conjecture is correct that ANS has no financing capacity to buy out SDL. ANS is likely to remain as one of small shareholders among those big players in SDL such as existing and forthcoming controlling shareholders of SDL e.g., Chinese Development Bank (the mortgagee of Hanlong shares); David Porter; Senrigan Master Fund; Noble Resources International Pte Ltd; D. E. Shaw Composite Holdings; International, Ltd, Wafin Limited, BSOF Master Fund L.P.
An interesting game is actually in SDL. Tidfore (A Chinese company) with the assistance of CCECC, a subsidiary of state-owned enterprise China Railway Construction (CRCC) is more likely to become a strategic partner of SDL as per MOU signed in January 2018.
Privately owned Tidfore has signed a joint venture framework agreement (JV) with China Civil Engineering Construction (CCECC). Tidfore is involved in supplying, manufacturing and installing high-end material handling, port, and offshore engineering equipment. CCECC is a subsidiary of state-owned enterprise China Railway Construction (CRCC).
Let us sing this "song". Lol. Good luck to everyone.

You’ll need to find a better basis to your argument.. there’s zero chance funds being raised will be within the 15% capacity.. it’s obvious the value being raised will be substantial therefore shareholder approval will be required.
