(This is an email I received this evening from "Penny Picks")
CERP is my new pick!
Good evening!
Human civilization has made solid progress in some areas but at the same time has invented some rather disastrous products – like plastic!
At first you might not see how bad plastic is; after all, it has helped us conveniently package our mountains of stuff.
But under the surface plastic has caused billions in damage to the planet and now governments and researchers are trying desperately to wrestle with this monster.
Thankfully there are a handful of companies that want to satisfy our attachment to plastic while at the same time do good by mother earth.
Drum roll please…
Meet CERP ladies and gentlemen, my latest alert and a company that cares about saving the planet from the calamitous effects of plastic waste.
CERP has become the poster child for the fight against plastic waste and in the process the company has become the darling of governments the world over.
Investors have taken a liking to CERP too, and a quick glance at its gain potential leaves you tingling with excitement.
I am issuing an immediate alerting on CERP, which closed today at 0.0145.
CERP is one extremely undervalued play that has gain potential the likes you don’t see every day.
CERP has been delighting Wall Street with its unbelievable spell of positive developments and with an average trading volume of 13 million shares, this stock is decidedly a heavy hitter.
Heavy hitters usually deliver massively from their gain potential so I want you to create a nice spot on your trading table and plunk CERP smack in the middle of it.
Do this now because CERP is poised for some explosive movement.
Investor Highlights
CERP will have a spectacular first half of 2013 and management has indicated that revenue is set to climb 800%.
CERP recently strengthened its North American sales team through the appointment of Mr. Reddy Tudi as Vice President of Business Development and Mr. Kevin J. Fina as Regional Sales Manager. Together Mr Fina and Mr Reddy will be working on projects worth more than $10 million.
CERP proved its global reach recently with the announcement of multiple purchase orders for Cereplast Compostables(R) blown film resins totaling approximately $200,000 in sales. These resins will be used for the manufacture of single-use plastic bags for use at about 45 supermarkets located in the Veneto and Trentino Regions in, Italy.
CERP has a solid uptrend and momentum is pushing market valuation towards the play’s second resistance point of 0.0185.
CERP is currently trading on a breakaway chart that is pushing volumes levels high. A most recent session saw more than 15 million shares changing hands.
CERP has rallied 60% since the start of the year and with many new developments involving orders for its resin-based products, market cap of $5.12 million is sure to get a big boost.
About CERP
CERP (Cereplast, Inc.) develops and commercializes bio-based resins. It provides Cereplast Compostables resins, which are compostable, bio-based, and ecologically sound substitutes for petroleum-based plastics targeting compostable bags, single-use food service products, and packaging applications.
CERP also offers Cereplast Sustainables resins, including Cereplast Hybrid resins that replace up to 55% of the petroleum content in conventional plastics with bio-based materials, such as industrial starches sourced from plants that are used in automotive, consumer goods, consumer electronics, medical, packaging, and construction markets; and Cereplast Algae Plastic resins, which transforms algae into bioplastics.
CERP compostable and sustainable resins are used in injection molding, thermoforming, blown films, blow molding, extrusion for profiles, and extrusion coating.
Green Plastics Market Set to Undergo Threefold Market Increase
Growing demand for eco-friendly packaging will see the global market for biodegradable plastics more than triple to almost 8.1bn over the next six years, according to a recent study.
Transparency Market Research found that renewable bio-based plastics, made from plants, would drive the growth in the market, as opposed to biodegradable plastics made from synthetic, petroleum-derived materials.
It estimated that the value of the biodegradable plastics market will stand at 7.8bn by 2018, compared with 2.3bn at present.
Research suggests that bio-based plastics are far more popular with consumers than other forms of packaging.
Pressure on manufacturers to prove that their packaging does not harm the environment is expected to mean that within a few years all plastic bags and bottles will be biodegradable.
Brands such as Coca-Cola are looking to exploit greater availability of plant-based packaging to boost their green credentials.
The soft-drink company announced partnerships last year with biotech companies to develop the next-generation of PlantBottle. Meanwhile, the synthetic plastics industry is experiencing a decreasing market share. Globally, the main markets for biodegradable plastics are in packaging, agriculture and transportation.
Recent Developments
There’s been so much going on inside CERP that it would be remiss of me to only include one breaking development. In keeping with my usual over-and-above style of alerting my readers I present two of the most recent developments released by CERP.
#1 – Cereplast Strengthens North American Sales Team
North American Pipeline Includes Approximately 30 Projects Valued at $10 Million Per Year
SEYMOUR, Ind., July 23, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Cereplast, Inc. (CERP) (the "Company"), a leading manufacturer of proprietary biobased, compostable and sustainable bioplastics, has strengthened its North American sales team through the appointment Mr. Reddy Tudi as Vice President of Business Development and Mr. Kevin J. Fina as Regional Sales Manager.
Together, Mr. Tudi and Mr. Fina are working on approximately 30 projects in North America for Cereplast Compostables(R) blown film and blow molding resins, as well as Cereplast Sustainables(R) resins for injection molding applications. The potential volume of these projects is $10MM per year.
Mr. Tudi has over sixteen years of experience in sales and marketing, project management and techno-commercial operations with an emphasis in the renewable, automotive and aerospace industries.
Prior to joining Cereplast, Mr. Tudi was the Director of Sales for Renewable Energy at the Freudenberg Group, and the Vice President of Solar Project Development at NanoBright Solar Technologies.
He has an Executive MBA from Ohio State University and a Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Massachusetts. As Vice President of Business Development for Cereplast, Mr. Tudi will focus on the Eastern Region of North America.
Mr. Fina has over thirty years of experience developing innovative recreational plastic products including prototype development, product manufacturing, supply procurement and distribution, as well as supplying compounded materials for a variety of industries including automotive, aerospace, personal care and recreation.
As Regional Sales Manager for Cereplast, Mr. Fina will focus on the Western Region.
Chairman and CEO of Cereplast Mr. Frederic Scheer commented, "There is demand for our products globally and we are constantly evaluating these opportunities. North America continues to be a market where we are focused on developing sales and fostering growth.
We believe the addition of Mr. Tudi and Mr. Fina will further our traction in the United States and Canada, and feel optimistic about the potential volume their current projects represent. Our encouraging development in Italy, the USA and India should be a significant part of our revenue in 2013."
#2 – Cereplast Provides Shareholders with an Outlook for the Second Half of 2013
Seymour, Indiana, Aug. 7, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Cereplast, Inc. (CERP) (the "Company"), a leading manufacturer of proprietary biobased, compostable and sustainable bioplastics, today is providing shareholders with an outlook for the second half of 2013. The Company expects to report similar growth for the second half of 2013 as compared to the first half with strong growth being driven by the finalization of legislation in Italy for plastic bags.
Revenue is anticipated to increase nearly 800% year-over-year during the first half of 2013 to approximately $1.7 million. The company anticipates comparable growth to occur during the remainder of the year, particularly during the fourth quarter and beyond.
Revenue growth is driven by sales in Europe, specifically in Italy as mentioned above. Growth in Italy is largely attributed to the provisions of the pending legislation to impose severe financial penalties on merchants who do not replace conventional single-use plastic shopping bags with bioplastic alternatives.
Cereplast is currently working with over 70 Italian companies. The total addressable market for Cereplast in Italy is approximately $50 million annually. In North America and India, the Company continues to receive orders and believes that the annual volume potential for both markets is substantial.
Cereplast Chairman and CEO Mr. Frederic Scheer commented, "Cereplast is competitively positioned with proprietary, technologically advanced resins and a strong intellectual property portfolio. We are poised to capture the growing demand for our resins globally with a short-term focus on Italy, and with long-term aspirations in the broader EU marketplace, Asia and North America.
We are fully prepared to meet the demand for this growth with ample production capacity and a strong management team."
I share’s management’s optimism and bullish outlook.
CERP’s gain potential is there for taking so don’t let Wall Street run away with all the loot.
I take my timely trading alerts seriously and urge all of my readers to do the same. The profit potential for a company such as CERP is huge. CERP could quickly rocket up the chart as word of the company's developments begins to make its way through the market. I believe that CERP may be setting up for a sizable move in the near-term and I want everyone to be on their toes and ready to benefit from this exciting situation!
Put CERP at the top of your watchlist and begin your research immediately.
