Great List of What PYR Is Up To

Definitely lots going on at PyroGenesis:

And another great comment from @pennytodollar:

@pennytodollar The major difference for me is that almost all other sub-dollar companies waiting for their break wait just as long as PYR but are relying on a single vertical and a single big client. PYR has multimillion dollar sales with international companies in multiple completely unrelated markets. Those aren't even the big "legs on the stool" and all it will take is one of the 5-7 contacts worth a potential $100 million to come in to completely change the lay of the land. PYR with $50-100M cash is going to be a whole different beast.

@pennytodollar @Guppy if we get $100M contract and it looks like we might get more, then yes, I totally believe we are looking at $10

@pennytodollar I know it seems a long shot at this very moment, but some of our projects are linked to potential contracts of that size

@pennytodollar given our margins are actually quite good on torches, that would be a P/E ratio in the realm of reason - again assuming the market believes others will follow (and we have a few of that size - each of which I believe becomes more likely to get signed once we have one)

@pennytodollar And also, very easy for hype and frenzy to take over here, PYR is a stock on a lot of radars. If we cross 5 on a solid deal, I think the machine is kicking in again somewhat to bring us higher.

BCONTVentures wrote:And from the Q2 Business Update/Outlook, these can be added to the list of what PYR is up to:

  • Plasma-Based Graphite Production:
    The Company is in advanced discussions with an entity engaged in the production of graphite, for a first phase design and delivery of a customized pilot-scale plasma reactor and associated testing system, with an estimated value of between $500,000 to $1 million.
  • Plasma-Based Glass Valorization:
    The Company is in final negotiations with an entity in Canada, for a plasma-based furnace for use in the melting and valorization of recycled glass.
  • Plasma Torches:
    The Company has been in discussions over several years with a European entity, to act as a potential supplier of plasma torches for the entity’s waste-to-energy initiatives; the entity has, at times, listed PyroGenesis as their torch supplier in various publications online. This entity has recently announced having entered into an agreement with a German multi-Billion-dollar leading technology company to accelerate green energy transition through waste-to-energy technology. The entity announced that it aims to establish 300 plants producing 1 million tons of hydrogen over the next several years.

Thank you for keeping people focused on what Pyro is all about.  I'm sure investors can get bogued down by the constant bashing.  It's not about the warrants.  It's not about the financials other than cash flow, which has been confirmed to support strategies in the near to medium term.  It's not about the trust.  The list of irrelevencies goes on ...

You're welcome Melida and thank you for your posts and thoughts.  Us shareholders just need to be patient, look at the big picture, and connect the dots.  There is a lot going on behind the scenes at PyroGenesis, and the multiple industries/verticals that PYR's technology and solutions is addressing is staggering.  And with PYR's President and CEO owning close to half of ...more

Also, another great post from Melida worth re-posting: Melida wrote: More importantly, investors have to decide if the technology is legit and whether it can be commercialized (my opinion is yes).  In fact it has been commercialized in some verticals.  We know all this so there's no point in detailing here. Does Pyro have the cash and receivables and opportunities to carry on ...more
