How to read a financing roundup
Junior explorers have no revenue, so almost every dollar they spend in the ground is raised by issuing shares. That makes the weekly financing record one of the more honest signals in the sector: it shows which companies can still raise, on what terms, and from whom.
A private placement sells shares directly to selected investors, usually at a discount to market and often with a warrant attached. A bought deal has an underwriter commit to the whole raise up front, which removes financing risk from the company and generally signals stronger demand. Flow-through shares are a Canadian structure that passes exploration tax deductions to the buyer, so they price at a premium but the money must be spent on qualifying exploration.
Watch the warrants rather than the headline number. A raise done with a half-warrant at a strike near the current price creates future selling pressure at a known level, and enough of them stacked up will cap a stock for years regardless of drill results.
