Subject to the achievement of performance benchmarks, Cadence will receive a total consideration of £3.8 million for its stake. Company also receives £1.8 million in Evergreen shares, representing 13% of the company.

‘For Cadence, this transaction provides an excellent opportunity to retain exposure to the booming hard rock lithium market in Australia. The consideration is being paid entirely in shares, and given that Evergreen intends to list on the Australian Stock Exchange, we will potentially have exposure to any future upside.
