Future business.

What is the life expectancy of a torch.  Will we see replacement orders every 7 years? This is in addition to annual maintainance income.  We are seeing the beginning of a money machine

“Thirty-six (36) is too exact a number to be random,” said P. Peter Pascali, CEO and Chair of PyroGenesis. “What is important today is that we can now confirm that the Client has not only identified the specific furnace to initiate a possible change-out, but has actually identified the burners to be replaced, and is now moving to the next steps.

He he, imagine how we will go nuts if Peter presents a similar pr with a second client :-) It could happen soon.

From what I got from interviews few months back, they are meant for 10+ years, he talked about the 3M NPV per torch being with 10 year maintenance (replacement anodes).

Pitpitcolisse, that's EXACTLY as I recall and have always assumed it. The $3MM NPV of the initial sale and the supply of replacement anodes as they deplete plus ongoing maintenance. I have absolutely no issue with the continued use of $3MM per torch but as an NPV not initial sale. Perhaps the number may be even higher if PPP is able to negotiate in any extra benefits that plasma torches ...more
