So let's assume the announcement is slightly delayed. Why?
My thoughts...
- Perhaps they are waiting for December shipment to firm up and announce additional forward sales?
- Nov rainfall at Century only had 2 days with heavy rain (both a little less mm than Oct days) so I would not expect any major issues, especially given the company mentioned taking proactive steps from Oct
- Oct had an injury downtime event so hopefully they are injury free in Nov
- Obviously, the biggest area of interest is the ramp up progression. No reason to delay an announcement in this regards I would think.
