I have pleasure in presenting the tenth monthly financial report for EVE Museum.

EVE Museum - March 2016 Financials

EVE Museum - Asset Register

Highlights for the month:

ISK Donations: 4b
Asset Donations: 232m
Asset Purchases: 2b
Artefact asset value: 160b
NAV at month end: 193b


As always, happy to answer any queries in respect of accounting policies and presentation. Cista2 will deal with any queries in respect of the operation of the museum and it's transactions.

I wish to make a donation to the EVE Museum. I have put on contract to CistaCista an original catalyst salvage destroyer with fit:

[Salvager]
Expanded Cargohold II

Cap Recharger II
1MN Monopropellant Enduring Afterburner

Salvager I

Why this ship should be in the museum:

• The salvage destroyer used to be one of the most popular options for looting and salvaging missions before the Noctis and the MTU were invented. The catalyst was deemed the superior destroyer for this purpose as it had the largest cargo capacity when fitted with three Expanded Cargohold II. This ship is therefore a suitable exhibit of the evolving meta of EVE.
• In addition this ship still has the original rigs, now changed into Large size

History of the ship:

• The ship is named Scorched Earth V. "Scorched Earth" obviously refers to the policy of not leaving anything of value on the PvE battle field. In reality the loot tables at the time still included Cap Boosters, which were very bulky and of relatively low value, so were often left behind; similar for Metal Scaps which used to be size 1 (or even larger?).
• The number V indicates that I managed to loose 4 previous incarnations of the ship, among others due to the explosion of the Pleasure Garden in the level 4 mission "Damsel in Distress".
• The last loss of a similar fitted ship among my alts is 2009-08-08, making that the likely date when this ship was purchased and fitted.

- and thanks to Thoraemond for donating some very interesting 2006 shares, as can be seen on this page.

I have no shares available, we might have moved into the phase now where you will have to offer to pay other players more than 30 mil ISK per share to get some. The IPO has been running almost a year now and will definitely move on forward.

Any shares can be traded through me - my other character Cista2.

Trogdor i am willing to offer 5 shares at 33mil each.

As a general rule, it is better to do any player-to-player transactions through my main character Cista2, so the shares do not get mixed up with the shares held in the museum.

I have pleasure in presenting the eleventh monthly financial report for EVE Museum.

Good, I have completed that transaction.

And I have paid out dividends.

The good news is dividends grew for the third month in row to now 2.1 %. I am holding back with buying too much stuff so dividends will most likely continue to grow a bit in the coming months
Altogether 7 bn have been paid out as dividends so far.

The other good news is that some shares have been destroyed, This means that we all get a little higher dividends each month than the official values!
