Pyr the reality of operations based on the last financials

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 $126,288,466 as at March 31, 2024 ($121,889,032 as at December 31, 2023). 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 March 31, 2024, the Company has working capital deficiency of $11,364,520 ($7,007,719 as at December 31, 2023) including  cash  of  $169,928  ($1,802,616  as  at  December  31, 2023).  The  working  capital  is  net  of  an  allowance for  credit losses  amounting  to  $9,660,250  ($9,278,135  as  at  December  31,  2023)  as  further  described  in  Notes  6  and  7.  The Company’s business plan is dependent upon the successful completion of contracts and also the receipt of payments from certain  contracts  closed  in  a  prior  year  and  expects  these  payments  to  be  made  during  fiscal  2024,  as  well  as  the achievement of profitable operations through the signing, completion and delivery of additional contracts or a reduction in certain  operating  expenses.  In  the  absence  of  this,  the  Company  is  dependent  upon  raising  additional  funds  to  finance operations within and beyond the next twelve months. The Company has been successful in securing financing in the past and has relied upon external financing to fund its operations, primarily through the issuance of equity, debt and convertible debentures. The Company completed a private placement in October 2022 for an amount of $1,318,980 and also completed another  private  placement  in  March  2023  for  net  proceeds  $4,960,483.  In  addition,  in  July  2023,  the  Company  also completed a brokered private placement of convertible debenture units for gross proceeds of $3,030,000 and in December 2023,  the  Company  also  completed  a  brokered  private  placement  of  convertible  debenture  units  for  gross  proceeds  of $1,250,000.  While  the  Company  has  been  successful  in  securing  financing,  raising  additional  funds  is  dependent  on  a number of factors, some of which are outside the Company’s control, and therefore there is no assurance that it will be able to do so in the future or that these sources will be available to the Company or that they will be available on terms which are acceptable to the Company. These conditions indicate the existence of a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt about the Company’s ability to continue operating as a going concern.

Or in other and another's words As the Globe and Mail article says succinctly:   “PyroGenesis also says “the operations of the company continue as usual.” Perhaps shareholders should neither take comfort nor be reassured by that. The company has never made an operating profit in a dozen years as a public company, and the shares are down 93 per cent from the February, 2021, highs ...more
