AUSTIN, TX–(Marketwired – Apr 26, 2016) – Buyer Group International, Inc. (OTC PINK: BYRG) today provided a shareholder update regarding its new direction to make a target acquisition for the Company into an African based Gypsum project.
Buyer Group anticipates that it will be able to obtain the necessary permits to commence exploration at the Lindi Region and also Hotelli Tatu in the Kilwa District of Tanzania, within 7 to 14 days, barring any additional requests or delays. Upon the completion of this process, Buyer Group plans to retain the services of qualified experts to determine the project’s probable reserves before applying for the necessary mining permits. The acquisition may add over 1,250,000 Tons of Gypsum in off-take agreements to the asset and revenue base of the Company.
Upon review of the Gypsum project, Buyer Group International, Inc. assigned portion from the off-take agreements provides the nominal value of this project in the $6.25 million over a ten-year period. Multiple sources have been identified so the project contains enough gypsum to supply at least 1,250,000 tons of Gypsum as estimated by the geologist. Provided operations would allow interested parties to process Gypsum and the subsequent off-take agreements provide BYRG a spread at $5 per ton to establish a baseline book value for the new BYRG venture.
BYRG continues to look for transactions to drive value to its shareholders. The new acquisition may establish up to a 40% equity retention for BYRG and a remaining 40% to go into a new investment Special Acquisition Company (SPAC). The pending filing and future offering for the Company will be available once completed. This will be conducted via a carve-out transaction establishing a separate entity of which BYRG shareholders receive shares as a distribution for holding BYRG shares.
BYRG intends to allocate a 20% portion of its equity to its shareholders of record upon completion in a special dividend. BYRG believes it can work out an agreement with some of BYRG’s largest shareholders who institutionally hold more than 2.2 billion shares. This will keep dilution down and allow the smaller investor to participate at a higher portion than originally intended.
CEO, David Bryant, added, “China’s economy is slowly rebounding, and as such, we’re seeing a spike in precious metals. Combine that with China dumping state-owned commodities such as metal on the market pushing down construction prices, gypsum is coming up fast as construction is spurred in cement, concrete and gypsum board. Past non-performers have been unsatisfying. In response, the company honed its compliance processes for project scoping bringing standards closer with industry norms. Concurrently, Buyer Group plans on pursuing projects whose scope fits within our business profile, including those that are less capital intensive for mining mineral resource properties, whereby, mineral streams are readily attainable. We seek already proven projects whereby the production is easily set up and off-takers identified and contracted. We will update our shareholders regarding any new projects or ventures as we move forward. We spent the last year or so identifying talent and building relationships that will enhance our roll out strategy well beyond the non-performance hedge funds of the past. We only seek projects that bring value ad, are low cost, have high upside, and come with credible off-take purchasers that have demonstrated capability and track record, which all translate to a higher chance of success in booking revenue.”
Additional information will be provided online at the Company web site to highlight the projects potential and to keep shareholders up to date.
