Lignol Energy Corporation V.LEC

Making Ethanol Profittable...

[2guys]

Looking at the market caps of ethanol producers Pacific Ethanol (PEIX) and Biofuels Energy (BIOF) listed on the Nasdaq, both have market caps substantially below $100 million, and neither one or should I say no ethanol producer that I know of is profittable.

If LEC can change that and actually make ethanol production profittable without government subsidies and without the use of food feedstocks such as corn, then I would think that LEC's market cap currently sitting at under $13 million could experience an exponential growth and probably see the share price make a hyperbolic move.

Not too long until we get some feedback regarding the trial sales of HP-L Lignin.  That, IMO should be the key.  atb

There is one producer GPRE (Green Plains Renewable Resources).I also thought that PEIX and Lignol have a LOI or some kind of agreement.It is only a matter of time when things start to move along.   Lately, Lignol Energy has been a boring stock to watch!

GPRE is profitable due to its diversifed revenue streams, including petroelum and agri-businesses.Here is what it had to say re ethanol margins...."Similar to last year at this time, forward ethanol margins are compressed during the middle of the year with no clear visibility of acceptable margins "It is clear that few if any of the food-based ethanol producers can make a go of it

"From such a failed business model comes opportunity for Lignol. This could be by way of JV ( as with PEIC ), or thru the acquisition of a operating refinery that can be converted to Lignol's model or thru a RTO. The obvious path is a JV with Novozyme which would combine the enzymatic processes of Novo with the pre-treatment process of Lignol along with its lignin patents.
