I think you are vastly underestimating Peter's investment banker training. You can forget the 10 year or the 15 year or the 20 year payment deals.......Demand = cash on the dash .
That brings up a question. Investors who value a stock based on a p/e ratio may value the stock at $40 if those revenues are received in one year, but what about the next year? Can we expect the $1.5b to be an annual revenue? What are the ongoing sales for plasma torches going to look like? If the revenue is $1.5b for one year and then drops to a few hundred million for subsequent years, what does that do to share price? If earnings fall then share price will too, won't it? Unless of course, PYR has other lines of business that would pick up where the torches left off. They would have to be quite significant to fill whatever gap the torches would leave if sales cannot be maintained at $1.5b per year.
