RockTenn PLASTIC NOT MOST OPTIMAL, NO GO

From the 10K;

Historically, we operated under the premise that we would be able to obtain significant quantities of waste plastic for free, as we offered companies a more cost-effective disposal method for this waste stream. During the year, as we processed increasing amounts of waste plastic, we made the determination that in order to obtain the most optimal feedstock on a consistent basis, we would be required to purchase this feedstock.




As I have pointed out, the feedstock that JBI needs must be 'most optimal'.

In order for it to be 'most optimal' it must be free of contaminates.

This is the same feedstock that can be recycled.

If the RockTenn plastic could be recycled RockTenn would, and they would make the most money doing it.

The problem is that it cost more to process it than it is most worth.

This is JBIs MOST FUNDAMENTAL PROBLEM.

There is no way JBI can use plastic that is not 'most optimal' or it will most foul the machines, cause most downtime, cause most undesired output and create most hazardous and most problematic byproducts.

If the RockTenn plastic could be processed to be 'most optimal' at a lower cost than it can be purchased for.. it can be sold for more than it is worth making fuel from it.

By the time the process cost is figured into the equation the end result is MOST NEGATIVE GROSS PROFIT FUEL SALES

This is a most circular argument.... a most catch 22.... a most dead horse.... an MOST ANNIHILATED business model.

That makes this the MOST FUNDAMENTAL PROBLEM
