I don’t have a share price in mind that is based on any sort of logic, to be honest, I’m still learning about how to determine and predict share price based on all the underlying variables. I am just considering all of the potential applications of HOCL in combination with the fields/areas that PCTL already has a foothold in or is developing footholds in.
1) HAIs and the Annihilyzer, obviously our flagship product. I have posted a lot before about how important the patent is when it comes to hospital administrators and lawyers being able to refute liability in lawsuits. If a person does any research into how insurance payments and HAIs work it’s abundantly clear the hospitals want to do everything they can to prevent HAIs. This predates COVID-19 by years and didn’t disappear, it’s just not the primary focus because we have a worldwide pandemic at play (which our product conveniently addresses also, do what you will with that).
2) Cleaning and disinfecting outside of the hospital arena. Despite what other posters have put on here about human nature And greed, it is also human nature to be fearful and anxious. If a consumer has a choice between a place that it’s cleaner or a that is not as clean, It is my belief that they will pick the place that is cleaner. Particularly if this pandemic continues to wreak havoc in America and across the world, it is going to shape a lot of peoples perspectives on hygiene and cleanliness for years to come. This is where I get really excited about royalties, we could have recurring revenue streams from countless entities that don’t involve us having to actually do any work. This royalty agreement with Zeroez is way bigger than people are giving it credit for, both on its own and as an indication of other opportunities the company can capitalize on. Also included here is folks selling fluid under PCTL’s EPA number. We probably aren’t getting the best deal percentage wise right now but sometimes a company does whatever is necessary to survive. I believe we did that and deals will become better for PCTL moving forward.
3) Fossil fuels remain the primary means of energy for much of the world. While America and some other countries Are actively pursuing green energy, it is going to take many years for us to replace fossil fuels With green energy sources. While that is being pursued, there are also a lot of other countries that Are pursuing America and China to be the top dog in the world and Environmental considerations take a far backseat to catching up to us (see Brazil, India, and others). Fossil fuels Are not going anywhere but what could change significantly is the process, which is where hypochlorous acid comes into play. If we can make the fracking process cleaner, that makes it more palatable to governments and companies worldwide. It strikes the middle ground Between entities that want to completely get rid of it and The massive and powerful companies that have built themselves over the last 50 to 100 years on the foundation of fossil fuel development and distribution.
4) Agriculture is an area where we haven’t seen a lot of official news since that citrus greening experiment a couple years ago. I haven’t seen any follow up on the results of that but it is pretty well-established that hypochlorous acid is beneficial in the world of agriculture in a lot of ways. If the company can make some inroads in this direction, it will be yet another boon to their coffers.
Based on all this, and the last couple of quarters showing great year over year growth, I’ve got nothing but optimism. The naysayers I see mainly talk about dilution, there aren’t relevant concerns (in my opinion) about the revenue streams or the potential of those streams to expand and grow other than COVID preventing Annihilyzer placements and sales because hospitals are overwhelmed and not focusing on much but direct patient care related to COVID. I’m eager to see what the debt situation looks like but don’t have a problem with debt if it’s “healthy” and directed toward substantive growth or research and development. Sorry I don’t have a specific PPS in mind, I just would literally be fabricating it because I don’t understand all the variables that go into that prediction. If you want to know my imaginative fancy though, I hope this is at .50 by 2023 through natural growth and not hype.
