Tax credits, liquidity, and going concern

Reading Science firsts claim  tax credit would be material, or "Huge" in his words.
I dont think the project I read qualifies for a  30% rebate on CAPEX
 
As I read it they wouldn’t qualify , But let’s just assume they get it. The point is these kinds of points are distractions and avoid considering the cash flows and business of PYR.
To the point, as I read it or IMO-do your own DD)

From the most recent financials:
 
The use of cash by operating activities during Q2, 2022 consists of the net loss of $13,050,346 (2021 – net loss of $20,362,205)’
 
What about liquidity?
 
And ‘ at June 30, 2022, the Company has cash and cash equivalents of $1,291,508. In addition, the accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $9,404,542 are payable within 12 months.’ 
And The net cash position of the Company decreased by $5,321,116 for Q2,
 
What were the accounting earnings? The EBITDA in Q2 2022 was $12,341,307 loss
 
What does all this mean? To me it means that the liquidity is challenged, they are dependent on financing, and revenues to even keep the doors open. So a 30% tax back on an expenditure, for money that they don’t really have, since they only have 1.2 mill in the bank.
 
Don’t take it from me read what the company says on page 15 of the MD&A most recent one found on SEDAR
 
"Prior to December 31, 2021, the Company had a history of losses and negative cash flows. For the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company has net losses of $38,431,939, cash flows used in operations of $18,113,432, and an accumulated deficit of $61,217,831. To the extent that the Company has net losses and negative operating cash flow in future periods, it may need to allocate a portion of its cash reserves to fund such negative cash flow. The Company may also be required to raise additional funds through the issuance of equity or debt securities. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to generate a positive cash flow from its operations, that additional capital or other types of financing will be available when needed or that these financings will be on terms favourable to the Company.
The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability in the future to grow its revenue, achieve profitable operations, successfully developing and introducing new products and, in the meantime, to obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities when they become due. While the Company has been successful in securing financing in the past, raising additional funds is dependent on a number of factors outside the Company’s control, and as such there is no assurance that it will be able to do so in the future. External financing, predominantly by the issuance of equity and debt, might be, sought to finance the operations of the Company; however, there can be no certainty that such funds will be available at terms acceptable to the Company, or at all. If the Company is unable to obtain sufficient additional financing, it may have to curtail operations and development activities, any of which could harm the business, financial condition and results of operations.”

Yes -my bad Did I just read the CEO gets 14 million total compensation At least it matches net loss in sedar!
Comment by sorrenson on Nov 05, 2022 12:18pm
Even better at the June AGM they voted for an  annual  10%  (17 million ) share incentive plan . Same agm where he says there will be no more diiution then passes the "incentive plan"   I have no idea why there hasnt been a class action yet.  I can assure you there has been complaints to SEC and OSC .

Yes compensation in millions and massive share dilution when the company lost  $38,431,939, and the share price tanked 90 odd percent Yup I get it. Makes total sense  No wonder no one wants to talk facts  The truth doesn't just hurt-it is excruciating.

ArthurRead02. You should return to exploring your se**xuality with your best friend Buster Baxter, and only return when you have something relevant to say. You are the ultimate fool!

It seems there are pages and pages of personal attacks, but not one post that discusses the business of PYR, current financials, liquidity, debt, revenue vs operating metrics, negative cash flow and working capital required to keep the lights on. Evem if we are to construct financial models based on future contracts, we need to start some where So to move this forward- why don't promoters ...more
