| WAIT | 1.900 | Robert McWhirter | Extracts oil/protein meal from canola. Have to get equipment into the plant for commercial production on extraction of high margin/high concentration protein (Isolets?) by the end of May but could be delayed by a month or so. Just did a financing of $15 million at $1.85. Historically have done well with financing and the stock has moved up. Wait for stock to start moving up ($2.25?). | 2010-03-18 | |
| HOLD | 2.100 | Prakash Hariharan | It’s a breakthrough business. A kind of biotech company. They have been hitting their milestones. Now they are moving to execution. The risk is more engineering and execution than technology. Believes the management team is determined. Seem to be on the right path. The sales cycle for these products is quite long. | 2010-03-01 | |
| WAIT | 2.150 | Jason Donville | Speculative company. He is watching it closely, waiting for the first profitable quarter or two. | 2010-02-24 | |
| BUY | 1.960 | Peter Imhof | Another typical company he would buy because it does not have earnings but there is a lot of upside as they are trying to get higher protein out of canola seed through their patented process. Will see this come to fruition in the next 6 to 9 months or so. | 2010-02-11 | |
| BUY on WEAKNESS | 2.000 | Jim Huang | Good proprietary process that can generate high-value proteins and nutrients. Still in the ramp-up stage regarding production so it will take a little while. Could easily double in 12 months if they are able to execute their plan. | 2010-01-29 | |
| HOLD | 2.010 | Robert McWhirter | (Market Call Minute.) Moving towards extracting canola protein and results are expected in March. | 2009-11-17 | |
| BUY | 2.080 | Peter Hodson | Extraction of proteins from canola. Revenues aren't quite there yet and technology is not really proven on a mass scale yet so you have to be a little bit careful. Have to wait about 1 year for the revenues to get some traction. Speculative. | 2009-11-16 | |
| SPECULATIVE BUY | 1.300 | Robert McWhirter | Crushes canola to extract oil and then has to extract protein. The big margins occur when they extract isolets. Expecting to have equipment in place and producing commercial volumes in Q1 of 2010. If successful $2 per share would be a good price because of the lower risk. The real key is between Jan/10 and March/10. Reasonable speculation for a toe in the water. | 2009-09-15 | |
| BUY | 1.360 | Bruce Campbell | Getting plants up for traction of proteins from canola oil and have their first one up and running and announced the 2nd one in North Dakota. If they get 2 or 3 plants up and running in the next couple of years, you could see a $2.50 or $3 stock. | 2009-08-10 | |
| Comment | 1.510 | Lyle Stein | Protein extraction through canola seeds. Have been successful in getting their Saskatchewan plant going and are now doing the same thing in North Dakota. Likes the industry and the space. (See Top Picks.) | 2009-07-31 | |
| BUY | 0.530 | Robert McWhirter | Canola oil. Must go through 3 phases of production between now and the end of the year. Now in the 1st phase. Should be a 50% ROE in the 2nd phase. In the 3rd phase they should be able to pull out protein and should give 100% ROE. Their advantage is a low temperatures solvent giving them lower operating costs and better protein. Very speculative. | 2009-06-22 | |
| Comment | 0.390 | Lyle Stein | Patented low-temperature extraction technology to get protein out of canola. Getting protein out of vegetables is attractive as it brings costs down. Just put a plant on stream, which will be generating cash flow. Talk of a 2nd plant. | 2009-02-25 | |
| DON'T BUY | 0.450 | Benj Gallander | Announced all their canola oil is going to be accounted from their new Saskatchewan plant. Has just been listed for 2 years. He does not buy anything on the Venture or hasn't been listed or 10 years. Too much of a crapshoot. | 2009-01-12 |
