Buyout Potential!!

Having spent all my career in supply chain negotiating complex multi million dollar contracts my intuition is telling me PYR will get bought out by one of these clients sooner rather than later.

Why buy at 3m per torch when you can buy the whole company although at a significant premium and sell the technology to your competitors at significant margins.

Thoughts?

Well you'd first have to convince peter to vote his 52% for a buyout I don't think there is any possibility in doing that  
Comment by BCONTVentures on Nov 02, 2020 1:31pm
Good point Welderkev1.  Also remember that multiple clients from multiple industries (steel, cement, iron ore pelletizing, US tunelling, etc.) have not only expressed an interest in PyroGenesis' technology and solutions, but are in various phases of due diligence/negotiations.  It wouldn't make sense to sell now when things are literally just getting started.  Plus ...more

Yes Peter would not sell out prematurely when he knows full well their divisions - verticals have so much to grow.  Only IF the offer would be so obscene....perhaps look at it.  But rest assured no one  is going to be able to steal this unicorn as Pete's majority is firmly locked out and very secure.   Long and strong PYROGENESIS!

First, they cannot buy the comlaby the way most other publicly listed companies can. Second, PYR is not just about torches. If a client will install all new PYR torches, there is no money that would be offered at this time that would likely be accepted.

Comment by kingscorpion on Nov 02, 2020 12:47pm
You spent all your career in complex negotiations never to realize in PYR s case Pascalli owns 50% of the company He is already the poison pill for PYR. Unless of course the price is right and his price is much much higher.
Comment by campst on Nov 02, 2020 1:17pm
That price might include a lucrative corporate position for Mr. P., which is of no value to other shareholders.....seen it many times.
Comment by Good4You on Nov 02, 2020 12:52pm
Sure! Everything has a price. Maybe Peter could sell but surely not under $100/share or even $1000/share and even then, at that Price, not sure Peter would sell. Not yet! PYR is his baby and he has Too Much still to achieve... and Peter has control of PYR :0) PYR Long and Strong Good4You
Comment by MidtownGuy on Nov 02, 2020 12:55pm
Disregarding the ownership details and Peter's shares, etc, as that's not the question and is irrelevant (if they want to sell, they'll sell)... I personally think there's a good chance they at least get serious offers for a takeover, and would consider a big offer. There's few big opportunities for an exit in business, so the rule of thumb is you take it off you can get it  ...more

MTG wrote"if they want to sell, they'll sell'' Correction: if HE, Peter, wants to sell, and I am convinced he won't sell now as PYR is just on the edge of BIG SALES and many Contracts signature($): on a super Big expansion in so many fields. Really not the Time to sell :0) G4Y
Comment by MidtownGuy on Nov 02, 2020 1:24pm
I think if you read my post I said exactly that "I don't think it will be now".
Comment by poppagasket on Nov 02, 2020 1:10pm
I doubt Peter would sell for less than $500-1000 USD / share.   If any client wants to take a position, they should just start buying hand-over-fist in the open market.  I won't be selling any of my shares for less than $100 US and I'll wait till we get on the NASDAQ.
Comment by gordches on Nov 02, 2020 3:34pm
You do know @ $1000/share is $80 BILLION dollars!!!! ANYONE in the world would sell!!!
Comment by ramuntcho on Nov 03, 2020 8:21am
Explain why Elon Musk doesn't sell, or why Warren Buffet doesn't sell...and other multibillionnaires don't sell. 
Comment by canyousayiii on Nov 03, 2020 9:02am
What is Warren Buffet going to sell? He essentially runs an ETF of his picked winners. He sells his portion of this fund, and what does he then do with the cash - give it to someone else to manage his money for him? In any case, we have a loooooong way to go, if ever, we get to discuss selling at $1,000 a share. I am quite sure that the ink couldnt leave the pen quick enough if Peter was made that ...more

you answered your ridiculous question in the last line , why in a million years would Peter sell the golden goose ?.. and watch the new owner make BILLIONS selling plasma torches to their competition for a higher price....it sure won't be for cheaper....DUH !....Get-off the screech boy , ..as if Peter would even contemplate such a game ending scenario for a revenue stream that is going to ...more

Comment by newfie36 on Nov 02, 2020 1:37pm
First off screech not my flavour now a nice glass of Signal Hill whisky will do the trick.  Your kidding yourself if you think Peter wouldnt take a significant  offer for the Plasma Torch business and Peter gets to keep the other product lines.   Money talks!!!!
Comment by MidtownGuy on Nov 02, 2020 2:02pm
That's a strangely naive view. If it's in either the best interest of the shareholders or the best interest of Peter ( the largest shareholder), he's obliged to consider selling. Lots of reasons to sell: money, greater commercialization potential, faster commercialization potential, the desire to be part of a larger entity with access to greater resources, funding ,scientists ...more  
Comment by Uncleron on Nov 02, 2020 3:09pm
naive ? , what's your agenda promoting silly off the shelf remarks when you know Peter is on the cusp of his first plasma torch sales. This means revenue to put to use building PyroGenesis into an industrial conglomerate. There is no law saying Peter has to sell. There is no company with enough cash to make an offer of this magnitude. How much would this buyout cost then ? Come-on give us a ...more

pYR IS NOT FOR SALE NOW. NOT UNTIL IT BECOMES A MULTI BULLION IN MARKET CAP. MAYBE DOWN THE ROAD SO LETS JUST MOVE THE CONVERSATION TO MORE RELEVENT SUBJECTS. IF I WAS THE CEO I WOULDNT SELL IT AT THIS TIME OF GROWTH PHASE.

Actually it apperars that way because UncleWrong can't figure out how to use the the Quote feature properly and always inserts his comment into the quoted text. Quoting yourself Uncleron? Seriously?[/quote]
Comment by GOGREENBABY on Nov 02, 2020 4:46pm
Uncleron is on the attack.... I like reading your price predictions and hope you ARE always right. But MTG has been contributing solid info and I haven't seen any bashing from him. Let me stop you before you say it. I AM FAIRLY NEW HERE and I have no other identities. Let's just get along and watch together as PYR lights up the SP with news!

-------------------------------------------------------- A buyout, although not likely in the short term, is always a possibility. If the timing should ever present itself, I am sure we as shareholders would share the benefit in Peter's decision to sell.
