That pricing might be more convincing if it came from an independent source don't you think? There is also the point that BEHL has not grown any of that algae yet, and has not extracted any astaxanthin - so how can they estimate a viable cost and selling price? Also the cost of the four global incumbent companies algae growth systems is irrelevant - they built them more than 10 years ago, and the cost will have been amortized over that period - so their capital costs will be near zero by now. Finally Biocin could launch their products today if they were smart (or serious, or had the money) using commercial algae products from one or more of the four companies (or some of the 110 algae companies in the Pacific Rim) - and then go to BEHL for lower prices when the market is developed and the BEHL technology proven. Don't you think?
