BioAmber Inc. operates the world’s largest succinic acid plant in Sarnia, Canada. The facility has a nameplate capacity of 30,000 tons per year and was built at a cost of $141 million. Construction was completed in 2015.

Beyond Sarnia, BioAmber Inc. is planning to build a second world-scale plant in North America that will produce 1,4-butanediol (BDO), tetrahydrofuran (THF) and succinic acid. The nameplate capacity is expected to be 100,000 tons of BDO/THF and 70,000 tons of succinic acid per year. BioAmber Inc. has signed take-or pay contracts for approximately 80% of the nameplate capacity of this second plant, which is expected to complete construction in late 2018.
 


Are these guys serious? I am assuming  building of the second plant has started already. I actually don't know for sure!  
BOD and Managements have failed miserably and need to go. Why would you need 7 directors and 6 senior management and 80 employees to run a company that loses money with every product it sells. Products sold were 3.3M, Product cost was almost 6M, R&D cost for the 3rd quarter was 1.2M. Are you fcuking kidding me? Are they paying for elon musk! I trully believe that this company lacks leadership, cut BOD, Management and employess #s in half, try to be more efficient and you will make money! If they can't execute they need sell or liquidate. A house in ON can be  worth more than10M, how about a well equiped chemical plant that cost 141M to build? Anyone welling to pay 70M could have my shares. It 50% discount the original price.
