The thesis, from the filings

Namib Minerals earns about 144% on equity, far above its ~9% cost of capital, but has diluted owners by 11% over 3 years — a real edge showing up in the numbers. The estimate methods put fair value between $0.69 and $3.04 a share.Whether it’s worth owning at today’s price is the last question — and yours to answer, below.

iii. Is this a good business?
Moat signal · return on equity

FY23 FY24 FY25 144%

It earned about 144% on equity, year after year, against a ~9% cost of capital — the footprint of real pricing power. Competition usually drags returns like this back down; here it hasn't.

Management signal · capital allocation
+11% shares · 3y

Share count is up 11% over 3 years — owners have been diluted. Worth asking what they got for it. Total debt has risen 115% over the same window.

Signals, not verdicts — read from the filings above. Numbers don’t prove a moat; they show its footprint. You decide.

iv. What it’s worth — engine v0.1.0

The 3 estimate methods that apply put fair value between $0.69 and $3.04 a share. They rest on different assumptions, so where they diverge is the story; the Graham Number is a stricter floor, not a target.
