RE:RE:FOR ADVOCATES' EYES ONLY...

RE:RE:FOR ADVOCATES' EYES ONLY...Great points Trader155, and PyroGenesis has some very impressive technology and solutions. 

PYR is the only non-US company to have its waste destruction system onboard the US Navy aircraft carriers.  The amount of due diligence and vetting that PYR has undergone with both the US Navy and US Army is staggering.

And PYR's NexGen Plasma Atomization system (additive manufacturing/3D printing) is a significant upgrade over their previous system (which GE Additive purchased in 2016).

Also, PyroGenesis' DROSRITE system was co-invented by Michel Drouet (PYR's Senior Scientific Advisor).

Michel Drouet is the recipient of Les Prix du Quebec:

Interesting article on PYR's DROSRITE system:

DROSRITE EXTENSIVE ON-SITE HOT DROSS TREATMENT TESTS

He knows full well PYR's most valuable assets are the patents, patented processes, and patented products.  These are all literally priceless and could be worth multi billions in the future.

Yet he specifically omits these as he is discussing shareholder equity.  He knows what he is doing.

PYR shareholder equity

     Interesting question as to whether or not, if the company liquidated what would be left. You really need to do a forensic on the balance sheet, but a couple things you need to consider, as he would have access to the assets, and what is happening currently to liquidity and how likely is it to be at the balance sheet remains intact as stated. Well, if we look at what you're saying, based on the last Financials:

Total assets are 36,842,601 and total liabilities are 30,719,912

So technically, it’s positive around 6 million 

But, remember, this is from the balance sheet, and we need to look and see what those assets are. 

Accounts receivable are about 12 million, and the company is already indicated that much of this will be written off. Goodwill is about 2.6 million exactly how will that be realized? Property and equipment, write up his assets, there’s about 7 million.

 

And by the way, if the company were liquidated, who has first rights?

 

In the companies own words: The Company has incurred, in the last years, operating losses and negative cash flows from operations, and as a result, the  Company  has  an accumulated  deficit  of $112,100,495  as  at September  30,  2023,  ($93,384,858 as  at  December  31, 2022).  Furthermore,  there  have  been  unexpected  delays  in  the  collection  of  certain  accounts  receivable  from  contracts closed in a prior year. This has resulted in a shortfall in cash flows from operating activities that would be used in funding the Company’s operations.

As  at  September  30,  2023,  the  Company  has  working  capital  deficiency  of  $6,433,575  ($1,650,709  as  at  December  31, 2022)  including  cash of $873,498  ($3,445,649 as  at  December  31,  2022).  The  working  capital  is  net of an  allowance  for credit losses amounting to $9,073,254 ($5,023,283 as at December 31, 2022) sedar.com

 

Here is what you posted: Cherry Picked?  WHAT I POSTED WAS WHAT YOU OMITTED,…

 

“RISK ANALYSIS

 

     Earnings have declined by 31.6% per year over past 5 years

     Has less than 1 year of cash runway

     Does not have a meaningful market cap (CA$73M)

    Shareholders have been diluted in the past year

    Accelerating Growth: Unable to compare PYR's earnings growth over the past year to its 5-year average as it is currently unprofitable

 

    Earnings vs Industry: PYR is unprofitable, making it difficult to compare its past year earnings growth to the Commercial Services industry (15.6%).

making in the past we assess whether they have at least 1 year of cash runway.  

  Stable Cash Runway: PYR has less than a year of cash runway based on its current free cash flow.

Forecast Cash Runway: PYR has less than a year of cash runway if free cash flow continues to reduce at historical rates of 26.9% each year”.
       GOOD LUCK TO THE SWINERY CHARACTERS..
