Rainbow Rare Earths Phalaborwa project shaping up to be one of the lowest cost producers globally. Watch the video here.
I was reading some stuff on TMAO recently, the kind of thing Gix has shared below. I also read somebody saying that there is no magic pill that can reduce TMA/TMAO levels. Obviously they need to be updated :)
£50m profit. You have to have a dream, otherwise you can’t have a dream come true.
Everhopeful, your name is false advertising. Can you update it to EverMiserable?
Anyone noticed a sleep improvement with FF? Sounds like another potential market.

Another thing I just remembered is that we are apparently launching in India soon, although we have absolutely no idea who, how, when. Inside DSM agreement, outside that agreement? I have no info on it.
THE GUT-BRAIN AXIS
The microbiota-gut-brain axis, that bi-directional interaction between the gastrointestinal tract and the nervous system, has created numerous opportunities to impact mental health, mood, sleep, stress management, cognitive performance and much more. This session will search for answers to a number of questions, including what the science actually says. We’ll hear from Nestlé and Unilever on their interest in this space, and we’ll also explore how Probiotics may be therapeutics for neurodegeneration.

Good timing!!!
Not FF, but related.

I remember a couple of things that Moon told us years ago that I keep in mind.
1) FF is a high margin product, becoming very high margin when produced at high volume
2) The DSM agreement was based around the model where DSM take the lions share, but as the volumes increase more money goes to PXS. This was later updated to give PXS a little more, but I still think that explains why there is massive stock, but we saw little of the profit.
IMO there will be no bidding war. All 3 companies have been working together for quite a while.
I don't want a buyout, I want FF and PXS to do very well and build a company with at least £50m profit per year. If our understanding is correct, we will be making our way there.
We have DSM that are we assume will have their own gut health products, whilst selling to other players in the gut health market. That could be major. PXS are selling the ingredient to them outside previous agreements and should make good profit.
We have an existing DSM prospective pipeline of sales that currently stand at substantial multiples of existing annual sales. So that that was previously to DSM, not the PXS share. Given the RNS structure, I feel this statement does not include BH.
We have By-Health that are launching a sport related product or two. They have the Team China relationship, so I expect it will do very well. Then they will launch their main platelet aggregation based product that will create a lot of attention in the industry given the health claim approval. Then we know there will be more. On top of that, we understand from press articles in China that BH have received strong interest from a large number of multinational food and beverage organisations for the commercialisation of FF. One article said 'strong interest' where another article said a large number have 'agreed to help with the commercialisation of FF'
Then we should get additional sales / income from FF+ Omega and eventually FF+ Nitrates.
Then there are additional sales opportunities now we are outside the DSM agreement. Will be interesting to see how that goes.
I certainly expect the next 5 years to be stellar growth, but as we always say, WTFDIK.
The Biocarecph one has been there for a long time. I imagine that will be reworded with the latest evidence.
The prospective sales pipeline stands at substantial multiples of current income, plus on top of that an entire new field has opened up to us and agreements are already in place. We just need patent approvals.
Let’s hope they put their money where their mouth is and lead the way by including it in their own brands. Good to see a quick start in their marketing.
Dr. Robert E. Steinert, Principal Scientist at DSM comments: “DSM is committed to helping people improve their gut health and use this as a gateway to overall wellbeing. The results of this study are incredibly encouraging and support earlier findings that polyphenol-rich extracts can lower TMAO concentrations through a targeted and beneficial modulation of the gut microbiota. We’re looking forward to working with our customers to develop new dietary supplement solutions targeting the gut-heart axis. Looking ahead, this study paves the way for future research into the gut-brain axis, especially age-related cognitive decline. This is an exciting time for gut-health research.”
It is strange that DSM have papers around why FF is beneficial to menopause, but then don't use it themselves with Phenology.

The gut health opportunity with DSM is massive. It just remains to be seen whether they actually do anything with it. If they are serious about it, we will see it appear in their own products like Culturelle, Hologram, Up4 etc. If not, it will just be at a few trade shows and slowly get customers like FF did.
If you are stupid, we'll all stupid. Most of us here are in the same boat. However, the next 5 years appear to be massively different than the last 5 years. We should move into profit in the next financial year.
