Well, they seem to be setting the stage for something , but a  bit of an unexpected shocker, n'est ce pas? Must be pretty confident that this battery thing will work out. Suspect that this won't do much for the share price for the next little while.  NanoXplore Inc. $500,000,000 Common Shares First Preferred Shares Second Preferred Shares ...more

What was the 'shocker' Lire02. It is certainly no surprise that such a 'material' offering was going to have to be prepared. I've always known that Mr. Nazarpour was going to have to allow for a entry way to additional co-ownership of the NanoXplore enterprise, whether by way of equities issuances or by way of access to controling senior and secured equity and/or debt of ...more  
Comment by Lire02 on Jan 07, 2022 9:03am
You are probably right, 1Student, I should not have been surprised that the company is setting itself up with a multitude of options to raise capital should their test facilities prove successful and lead to requiring substantial funds to build out appropriately larger production plants. I just hope ( and reasonably anticipate ) that we do not ' put the cart before the horse ' and raise ...more

This is the greatest signal ever, it means the terms of the debt financing with all levels of government are negotiated and in the bag .   The last thing you do is the equity. So, once you've shown the world the blueprint, the economics, of the project you let the stock run and then, you make an issue at the top for less dilution. Classic sequence of events in any project be it ...more

The laboratory testing and third party validation of the battery chemistry has been long completed and it's graphene enhanced performance advatages have been confirmed. Testing of the proprietary battery chemistry by way of actual in vehicle instalation and real conditions testing is precisely what has been or willl be completed, as per Mr. Nazarpour's statements. "Some pretty nice ...more

Do you know how many 4,000 tpa  Graphene BlackTM producing manufacturing modules are going to be needed for the U.S market alone? No, I have no idea. What's the answer? Another question: If Nanoxplore has the only EPA sanctioned graphene in the US, how long does it take for competition to secure the same rights?
Comment by antlercarver on Jan 07, 2022 6:53pm
I believe the process takes about 3 years and costs around $500K. Interesting to note that other  graphene producers selling in the US are mislabeling their product as graphite to get around the FDA approval process, which has put Ford and possibly other OEM's who have used graphene from these suppliers in a bind. 
Comment by Lire02 on Jan 07, 2022 7:44pm
But why would they not buy real graphene at the price that Nanoxplore can offer? As i undetrstand it, no one comes close to Nano's price.
Comment by 1student on Jan 07, 2022 11:08pm
When the choice is between either paying the going cost for Graphene BlackTM, which will be determined for some current USEPA regulations and laws violators on a case by case basis, or simply getting out of the business of producing such graphene comprised products all together; which one would you choose. Certainly, there are other 'choices' for such violators of USEPA regulations and ...more  
Comment by antlercarver on Jan 08, 2022 1:41am
I think the question asked was why don't the OEM's buy graphene products from NanoXplore? The example I am aware of is a graphene foam product, which is used in doors, etc., by Ford. The foam product is produced by a company that also makes the graphene for inclusion in the foam (potentially mislabeled as graphite for FDA purposes). This company does not have the capacity to produce ...more

The 500 M$ Financing with no projects or « Putting the cart before the horse » A bad strategy: 150 M$ market cap disappeared since Dec 31 2021
Comment by goodbuddy on Jan 08, 2022 8:12pm
I might agree with you on that statement, but I don't think that they have no projects (only my gut feeling) There will be no-one that will give them money without earnings, having said that, I think there will be a flury of news releases in the coming days and weeks about contracts for they're batteries or the arrow project. I was always in the thought process that NanoXplore is further ...more

It's a shelf prospectus graphene007. I entirely expected this on the part of Mr. Soroush Naxarpour and Co; and I seriously doubt Mr. Nazarpour is putting any 'cart before the horse', so to speak. At this juncture, should you or anybody else not be capable of more clearly determining what precisely is afoot and how quickly the "hockey Stick" growth in revenues and great ...more  
Comment by Lire02 on Jan 09, 2022 9:27am
Couldn't agree with you more, 1Student , as long as the capital is raised as a result of contracts secured. However, the market currently seems to disagree , though on fairly low volumes. Should be some interesting times coming up next couple of quarters. And, maybe somewhere along the way we can get some indication of actual Graphene Black sales independant of revenue generated by ...more  
Comment by multilex on Jan 09, 2022 7:15pm
I don't expect the shelf prospectus to be actually utilized by NanoXplore. It's a renewal of the shelf prospectus from last year.  I expect NanoXplore to need financing once it decides to go ahead with a 2 GWh battery plant. The funding for the plant will likely come from a combination of provincial and federal government loans and grants to secure Canada's first figafactory ...more  
Comment by 1student on Jan 10, 2022 3:13am
Multilex stated, "Once  additional Graphene supply agreements are announced  (e.g., Dow, DuPont, BASF, global cement companies) , that should triple Nanoxplore's Graphene production capacity  within 18 months." Yoo-whoo! Oh multilex The Dow and DuPont merger happened a while back, so there is little need for the comma between the two corporate names. Never the less ...more  
Comment by Lire02 on Jan 10, 2022 5:58am
Once again, I hate to go all Antidiluvian on you guys ( 1Student, Multilex etc) , but would really like to see some sales and accretive revenue figures directly tied to Graphene Black, if only to give some reasonable credibility to the more optimistic forcasts out there. The all knowing market suggests there is a flaw in your arguments. Markets are often wrong. But, more often they prove correct ...more

Market Cap Talks... Minus 200 M$ since Mamouth Financing Project
Comment by JimmyBly1 on Jan 10, 2022 6:42pm
So $700m to inflate for take off, or find in a buzz balloon. Why not. What it says is that the fundamentals are not there: with all reddish indicators (real money, ebit and revenues) but I reckon some good promises though and stock is searching for a real support.

Do yourself a favor and also extend me the courtesy of actually dissecting just one of my posts in a analytical fashion, so as to discover precisely that which I have clearly emphasized as actions which NanoXplore executives had taken, are presently taking and wiil take going forward. You, JimmyBly1, pretend to have no clue about anything greatly positive which Mr. Nazarpour and Co. have managed ...more  
Comment by JimmyBly1 on Jan 12, 2022 11:39pm
Student boy, do yourself a favor too, to your chubby little fingers and sparkling neurons connected to those: you are overthinking it and you look more confused by all the dots you try to connect all day long and justify your findings than anything else. Period. Or seek help, someone real to talk to etc. JimmyB
Comment by 1student on Jan 13, 2022 1:00am
Go ahead you but p lug, just try  to pick apart what I stated; you can't. Since you can't, I suggest you go flock yourself. Just buy some GRA shares at such discounted prices, make some money; and shut the flock up JimmyBly1. At this point you have Sweet Fack Alll to contribute, SFA! Mr. Nazarpour himself, by way of his specific comments, has confirmed just about everything I' ...more

How about you two, JB1 and 1Student , give it a rest with the personal shots and get back to focussing on the subject at hand; namely  speculation on the futures of Nano and VoltaXplore. I can get all the ' garbage mouth ' I may want from my Kids, don't need to seek it on this Board. Thanks
Comment by JimmyBly1 on Jan 14, 2022 5:25pm
I recommend you go play chase and catch on the nearest runway from your place, and do catch the biggest moving object (those are airplanes for your information), i'll watch from the tower your smelly brown reddish stain left all over the asphalt (graphene-free) straight. Now listen to Mumma Lire#2 boy. Have a good weekend. JimmyB
Comment by 1student on Jan 14, 2022 10:02pm
@ JimmyBlye1 and others It's quite obvious that you simply can't argue the points I have made, with respect to "Graphene BlackTM" contracts, contracts and more contracts which are 'imminently' going to be assigned to NanoXplore's wholly owned subsidiary RMC, a company currently operating within the U.S (North Carolina) and presently exclusively authorized by the ...more  
Comment by goodbuddy on Jan 10, 2022 10:59am
We will have to wait until Q3,CY22 to see the increase in revenue, management has indicated that Q2 will be inline with Q1 (Q1 was $18 million). Then it is forecasted that an increase will come in Q3 & Q4 and in Q4 ETIBA should bbe positive.
Comment by goodbuddy on Jan 10, 2022 11:28am
I need to clarify a bit, we are in Q3/FY22 right now (January-March); Q4/FY22 will start (April-June). GRA should be experiencing higher sale volumes now. And we won't see the results from Q4 until Q3/CY which is (July-September). which total revenue for FY22 is projected at $85-90 million an icrease from $72 million from previous year.
Comment by multilex on Jan 10, 2022 1:56pm
That's a fair forecast. If an investor waits for the financial results from the fourth quarter  to be issued, they  will miss the potential lift from the announcements from  Battery Day (calendar Q2) plus any new supply agreements that are finalized and announced this year. You can buy more shares now at the current share price level, or you can wait and buy after the financial ...more  
Comment by 1student on Jan 09, 2022 10:49pm
In a previous post I mentioned two specific initiatives which are to be furthered by the various capabities which the $500 M shelf prospectus clearly assists NanoXplore representatives to 'project outward' to existing partners and customers and to would be immediately forthcoming partners and customers, both as pertains to the VoltaXplore proprietary battery cells manufacturing partnership ...more  
Comment by 1student on Jan 07, 2022 10:24pm
You are correct antllercarver. That is also  what Mr. Nazarpour suggested, in terms of other graphene products producers intentionally mislabling their products as graphite containing in order to get around the USEPA approval process. It is a practice which has in fact put Ford and other OEM's, who have used  and are using graphene comprising products currently being purchased from ...more  
Comment by 1student on Jan 07, 2022 9:36pm
Hello Lire02 I'll answer your second question first. So, lets say GM wanted to gain such a USEPA  granted status with respect to producing unlimited quantities of Graphene containing products, I am certain GM supporters could certainly have such a process expedited somewhat; although, GM just couldn't be assured of having the process expidited. Although, I am certain it would be a ...more
