@ArneriDesign@mattimusmaxicus@whirlybard@HydroGraphInc@GE_Aerospace This highlights the reason in my mind that the DARPA RFI insisted on commercial production capabilities vs lab based science projects. And this is where $hgraf becomes all the more interesting as it has two units that are production ready and a new plant poised to be built.
$hgraf. Read this thread. @ArneriDesign is the GOAT on finding unique insights. But the proximity to the DARPA lab is most telling considering the RFI was due earlier this week and required a US manufacturing presence. For me - the picture is going 8k clear. But DYODD.
@RonaldVolusus@ArneriDesign This is what people fail to appreciate about $hgraf. The scientists who know graphene the best are all choosing the same horse. Sometimes the best clues are available for all to see - provided they open their eyes.
@justnumbers1242 Qualifying the product with customers took a year longer than I expected. New Jersey approval probably cost them 6 months. Those are the big things. Make sure you model out expansion plants. Numbers look silly because monopolies have pricing power - especially in an energy crisis
@zzzTrAsHeRzzz@ArneriDesign Point 2 is particularly relevant - especially if that shipyard manufactures high performance racing boats where strength to weight and reducing frictional drag through the water is paramount.
@SunWeatherMan@HawkEmDownChris Have a look at the knee injuries he incurred. What would have been fixed today with simple arthroscopic surgery resulted in at least 6 major surgeries and forced his retirement at the age of 30. Look at his freakish stats between 66 and 75 as a defenseman!
@justnumbers1242 I feel like I’m talking with a University Professor who wants to talk to me about theory. Have a look at the customers who have signed on and talk to them about pricing and then let’s have a discussion. Until then, please short $PCT so I can take the other side.
HydroGraph Clean Power reported 3/31/26 cash of $42.8 million and working capital of $42.2 million. I sent CEO Kjirstin Breure a note congratulating her for having the Q1 financials completed just in time for my month end subscriber letter. I suggested that the company's burn rate must be heading higher as it ramps up toward production.
From Kjirstin’s response, I get the impression that cash and working capital balances, aided by warrant conversions are holding steady at or around 3/31/26 levels and that she is not at all concerned about any funding needs any time soon.
She told me that a NASDAQ listing is still likely after Labor Day, that there will soon be a number of news release and that when they come she will be available for an interview.
I get the impression that the second half of 2026 will be positively eventful for HGRAF shareholders. Stay tuned!
@justnumbers1242 No compounding, GPM goes +ve at a utilization rate of around 75%. But that utilization rate drops as compounding rate increases. And this is where things get interesting (ie pricing power) because $PCT is an effective monopoly for some companies mandated to use RPP.
@justnumbers1242 Yes I have. A lot more. Have you visited the plant? I have. Have you talked to operators of the plant? I have. Have you talked to customers? I have. There’s a reason I’ve debated with many hedgies who are short $pct. It’s because I compete with them daily. Please short the stock.
@jp24630660@ArneriDesign All depends on your definition of serious.
End of 2027 for serious revenue as I define it.
People should be sceptical of the tech and the company. So learn about the GEIC in Manchester. Look at $hgraf’s hiring, its patents, its Board, its pipeline agreement. Then decide.
