經驗教訓、技術升級、銷售展望
TORONTO, ON / ACCESSWIRE / September 7, 2023 / CO2 GRO Inc. [(TSXV:GROW)(OTCQB:BLONF)(Frankfurt:4021)] is pleased to provide a detailed Business Development Update for our shareholders, customers, and all stakeholders invested in our incredible journey and growth story.
多倫多，2023年9月7日/ACCESSWIRECO2 Gro Inc.[(TSXV：Growth)(OTCQB：BLONF)(法蘭克福：4021)]很高興提供詳細的業務發展動態為我們的股東、客戶和所有利益相關者投資於我們令人難以置信的旅程和增長故事。
We recently published our Q2 2023 financial results which included the following highlights: (all figures in C$ unless mentioned otherwise):
我們最近發佈了2023年第二季度的財務業績，其中包括以下亮點：(除非另有說明，否則所有數位均以加元表示)：
Cash on hand as at June 30, 2023 was $430,000. Since that time, we've collected more receivables totaling over $250,000.
截至2023年6月30日，手頭現金為43萬美元。從那時起，我們收到了更多的應收賬款，總額超過25萬美元。
In Q3 2023, CO2 GRO received financing for our Pay-for-Use ("PFU") contract with a Canadian greenhouse grower signed in Q2 2023. Financing was arranged with a Canadian financial entity that purchased and leased a portion of the PFU contract for the grower. The grower is responsible for all lease payments. Funds received will be recorded as Q3 2023 revenue. Third-party financing of a portion of our PFU contracts ensures we receive cash up front while maintaining a long-term recurring revenue stream from the grower. CO2 GRO announced two PFU contracts totaling $1.3M in 1H 2023. The first for approximately $500,000 was to a major Canadian greenhouse grower. The second $800,000 PFU contract was with El Salvador-based Hidroexpo, who have now signed a total of $1M in sales contracts.
在2023年第三季度，CO2 GRO獲得了我們與加拿大溫室種植者在2023年第二季度簽署的按使用付費(“PFU”)合同的融資。融資是與一家加拿大金融實體安排的，該金融實體為種植者購買並租賃了部分PFU合同。種植者負責支付所有的租賃費。收到的資金將記錄為2023年第三季度收入。我們部分PFU合同的第三方融資確保我們預先獲得現金，同時保持來自種植者的長期經常性收入流。CO2 Gro在2023年上半年宣佈了兩份總計130萬美元的PFU合同。第一筆約50萬美元的獎金是給加拿大一家主要的溫室種植者。第二份價值80萬美元的PFU合同是與總部位於薩爾瓦多的Hidroexpo簽訂的，這兩家公司目前已簽署了總計100萬美元的銷售合同。
We expect to end the year with 2023 commercial sales contracts ("Sales") to total between $2M to $2.5M based on current Technology Adaptation Projects ("TAPs" ) due to conclude in Q4 2023. A TAP is the opportunity for a grower to analyze the benefits of the technology and for CO2 GRO to adapt the technology to the grower's unique facility. Typically, a grower will pay for the cost of this project.
我們預計到今年年底，2023年的商業銷售合同(“銷售”)總額將在200萬至250萬美元之間，根據目前的情況技術適應專案(“技術應用方案”)將於2023年第四季度完成。水龍頭是種植者分析技術效益的機會，也是CO2 GRO將技術應用於種植者獨特設施的機會。通常，種植者會為這個專案的成本買單。
Our combined Sales opportunities with growers currently engaged in Technology Adaptation Projects ("TAPs") for 2023 and continuing into 2024 is $18M (only includes the initial order size from our large EU-based customer, otherwise including their total opportunity, the total Sales opportunity with current TAP customers is nearly $145M).
我們與目前正在參與2023年和2024年技術適應專案(TAP)的種植者的銷售機會加在一起為1800萬美元(僅包括我們的歐盟大客戶的初始訂單規模，否則包括他們的總機會，與現有TAP客戶的總銷售機會接近1.45億美元)。

Highlights of Completed Technology Adaptation Projects ("TAPs")
已完成的技術適應專案的要點(“技術創新計劃”)
Our goal is to help increase production in fruiting crops by about 2-4 kg/m 2 annually, which represents between 10-30% greater yield depending on a customer's baseline production. We focus on protected agriculture facilities growing pepper, cucumber, tomato, leafy greens, select floriculture and medicinal crops.
我們的目標是幫助果樹增產約2-4公斤/米。2.每年，這意味著產量增加了10%-30%，這取決於客戶的基準產量。我們專注於種植辣椒、黃瓜、西紅柿、綠葉蔬菜、精選花卉和藥用作物的受保護農業設施。
Hidroexpo (El Salvador, bell peppers): Hidroexpo has used our technology for three seasons and have seen strong results, which have led to PFU contracts worth a combined $1M. Hidroexpo represents a total Sales opportunity of up to $4M which we expect to realize in the coming years.
Hidroexpo(薩爾瓦多，甜椒)：Hidroexpo已經使用了我們的技術三個賽季，並看到了強勁的結果，這導致了PFU合同的總價值達到100萬美元。Hidroexpo代表著總銷售額高達400萬美元的機會，我們預計在未來幾年內實現這一目標。
Fruit production in the CO2 GRO treated areas over the three seasons were on average 2.15 kg/m 2 greater than control areas (compared to just ambient CO 2 ).
三個季節的CO2 GRO處理區的水果產量平均為2.15公斤/米2.大於控制區(僅與環境CO相比2.).
Cucumber Man (Alberta, English cucumbers): The Cucumber Man conducted a TAP in 2022 with strong results. Recently, the greenhouse was sold to a new owner. Discussions with the new owner are yet to begin. However, the project served as a referral and played a key role in convincing our Canadian greenhouse vegetable customer to execute a PFU contract in Q2 2023 worth approximately $500,000.
黃瓜人(艾伯塔省，英國黃瓜)：黃瓜人在2022年進行了一次挖掘，取得了很好的結果。最近，這個溫室被賣給了一個新主人。與新老闆的談判尚未開始。然而，該專案起到了引薦作用，並在說服我們的加拿大溫室蔬菜客戶在2023年第二季度執行價值約500,000美元的PFU合同方面發揮了關鍵作用。
Fruit production in the CO2 GRO treated area was on average 2.75 kg/m 2 greater than the control area (ambient CO 2 ). In addition, during the second grow cycle, a powdery mildew outbreak was experienced in the control section, but was suppressed in the CO2 GRO section.
CO2 GRO處理區的水果產量平均為2.75公斤/米2.大於控制區域(環境CO2.)。此外，在第二個生長週期中，對照區發生了白粉病暴發，但在CO2 GRO區受到了抑制。
EU-based large customer (North Africa greenhouse, cherry tomatoes): The customer has conducted a TAP for two seasons and is beginning a third and final season of the project (September 2023-June 2024). The customer indicated that their initial order would be in the range of $1.5M to $3M, and therefore wanted a 3 rd season of production data as per their internal "R&D-to-commercial implementation protocol". This customer represents a total Sales opportunity of up to $130M, which we expect to realize over time with order sizes ramping up year-over-year.
歐盟大客戶(北非溫室、櫻桃西紅柿)：客戶已經進行了兩個季節的TAP，並正在開始該專案的第三季也是最後一季(2023年9月至2024年6月)。客戶表示，他們的初始訂單將在150萬美元到300萬美元之間，因此想要3研發生產數據的季節根據其內部的“研發到商業的實施協定”。這一客戶代表著高達1.3億美元的總銷售機會，我們預計隨著訂單規模的逐年增長，這一點將隨著時間的推移而實現。
Given the opportunity with this customer and the intention of the customer to commercially implement our technology, CO2 GRO has invested in providing its new sophisticated control system ("Control System") and lessons learned, including plant conditioning advisory, to the customer. We fully expect the production results in this 3 rd season to exceed the customer's expectations and provide them with the confidence to transition from R&D phase to an initial commercial project of up to $3M in Q2 2024.
鑑於與該客戶的合作機會以及客戶將我們的技術商業化應用的意圖，CO2 GRO已投資向客戶提供其新的複雜控制系統(“控制系統”)和經驗教訓，包括工廠調節諮詢。我們完全期待這3個月的生產結果研發這一季將超出客戶的預期，並使他們有信心在2024年第二季度從研發階段過渡到高達300萬美元的初步商業專案。
Fruit production in the CO2 GRO treated areas over the two seasons averaged 1.7 kg/m 2 greater than the control area (ambient CO 2 ), including 3-times greater category 1 fruit (3% of total vs 1%) and 37.5% more category 2 fruit (33% of total vs 24%). Category 1 is the highest-grade fruit that fetches the highest price, followed by category 2, and so on.
CO2 GRO處理區兩個季節的水果產量平均為1.7公斤/米2.大於控制區域(環境CO2.)，其中第一類果實增加3倍(佔總數的3%比1%)，第二類果實增加37.5%(佔總數的33%比24%)。第一類是最高等級的水果，價格最高，其次是第二類，以此類推。
Colombia rose customer (Colombia, roses): This customer opportunity was developed in partnership with one of the largest industrial gas companies in the world. The TAP has been operating for nearly 18-months and has consistently resulted in higher production. We expect to conclude the TAP by December 2023 and enter into discussions for a sales contract in Q1 2024. The customer represents a total Sales opportunity of up to $1.5M.
哥倫比亞玫瑰客戶(哥倫比亞玫瑰)：這一客戶機會是與世界上最大的工業氣體公司之一合作開發的。水龍頭已經運行了近18個月，一直在提高產量。我們預計在2023年12月之前完成TAP，並在2024年第一季度開始討論銷售合同。該客戶代表著高達150萬美元的總銷售機會。
Rose stem production in the CO2 GRO treated areas over the past 18-months has averaged 25% more than the control area (ambient CO 2 ), including more production of higher-grade stems and over 75% reduction in powdery mildew.
在過去的18個月裡，CO2 GRO處理區的玫瑰莖產量平均比對照區多25%(環境CO2.)，包括生產更高等級的莖和減少75%以上的白粉病。
Key Lessons Learned
吸取的主要經驗教訓
The most important lesson learned about increasing production while employing CO 2 enrichment using our technology is that plants are complex organisms which need to have their environmental conditions considered while balancing other plant conditioning practices. This enables the plant to direct resources towards producing more fruit or other parts of the plant that our customers monetize.
在使用CO的同時增加產量的最重要教訓2.使用我們的技術進行濃縮是因為植物是複雜的有機體，需要在平衡其他植物調節實踐的同時考慮其環境條件。這使得植物能夠將資源用於生產更多的水果或植物的其他部分，我們的客戶可以從中賺錢。
Control System: We have developed a sophisticated control system that applies our aqueous CO 2 enrichment to plants in the most optimal environmental conditions in real-time, given that these conditions are in constant change in a commercial greenhouse.
控制系統： 我們已經開發了一種複雜的控制系統，它應用了我們的水性CO2.在商業溫室中這些條件不斷變化的情況下，可以在最理想的環境條件下即時向植物進行增肥。
Plant Conditioning: Plant conditioning, including nutrient balance and other production techniques while using our technology also determines how the plant utilizes its resources towards more production that growers can sell; for example, more fruit vs. more leaves Our work with experts in these areas has helped our customers understand that they may need to adjust some of their practices to the new condition of CO 2 enriched plants. Thanks to our customers' willingness to learn and adapt, and our team's increasing technical proficiency, we have begun to see more consistent results.
植物調理： 植物調節，包括營養平衡和其他生產技術，同時使用我們的技術也決定了植物如何利用其資源來生產更多的種植者可以銷售的產品；例如，更多的水果與更多的葉子我們與這些領域的專家的合作幫助我們的客戶理解，他們可能需要調整他們的一些做法，以適應新的CO條件2.富含植物。由於我們的客戶願意學習和適應，以及我們團隊日益增長的技術熟練程度，我們已經開始看到更一致的結果。
Chain-Link Optimizer: Given the above lessons learned, and the nature of our technology requiring all parts of the process working in-sync, we have developed the concept of the "Chain - Link Optimizer" where we view our technology as a chain with several links that must be secured in order to realize consistent results. This concept helps us set the stage for successful project execution while providing a troubleshooting process to quickly identify weak links and strengthen those to optimize results.
鏈環優化器：考慮到上述經驗教訓，以及我們的技術需要過程的所有部分同步工作的性質，我們開發了“鏈條-鏈接優化器“我們認為我們的技術是一條鏈條，必須確保幾個環節的安全，才能實現一致的結果。這一概念幫助我們為成功的專案執行奠定了基礎，同時提供了故障排除流程，以快速識別薄弱環節並加強這些環節，以優化結果。
2023-2024 TAPs and Anticipated Sales
2023-2024年水龍頭數量和預期銷量
Given the implementation of lessons learned over the past two years, our new Control System, plant conditioning advisory, and the introduction of the Chain-Link Optimizer concept, we are confident that adopting our technology will result in more consistent increases in production for all our projects. We have seen with past successful projects that when growers see the results, they are keen to commercially deploy our technology.
鑑於過去兩年經驗教訓的實施，我們新的控制系統、工廠條件諮詢以及Chain-Link Optimizer概念的引入，我們有信心採用我們的技術將導致我們所有專案的產量更穩定地增加。我們從過去成功的專案中看到，當種植者看到結果時，他們熱衷於將我們的技術商業化部署。

Forward‐ looking information is often identified by the words "may," "would," "could," "should," "will," "intend," "plan," "anticipate," "believe," "estimate," "expect" or similar expressions and include information regarding: statements regarding the future direction of the Company; the ability of the Company to successfully achieve its business and financial objectives; plans for expansion and the ability of the Company to obtain, develop and foster its business relationships; and expectations for other economic, business, and/or competitive factors. Investors are cautioned that forward‐looking information is not based on historical facts but instead reflect the Company's management's expectations, estimates or projections concerning the business of the Company's future results or events based on the opinions, assumptions and estimates that management considered reasonable at the date the statements are made. Such assumptions include but are not limited to: general business and economic conditions; the Company's ability to successfully execute its plans and intentions; the availability of financing on reasonable terms; the Company's ability to attract and retain skilled staff; market competition; the products and technology offered by the Company's competitors; and that good relationships with business partners will be maintained. Although the Company believes that the expectations reflected in such forward‐looking information are reasonable, such information involves risks and uncertainties, and undue reliance should not be placed on such information, as unknown or unpredictable factors could have material adverse effects on future results, performance or achievements. Among the key factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in the forward‐looking information are the following: changes in general economic, business and political conditions, including changes in the financial markets; in particular, in the ability of the Company to raise debt and equity capital in the amounts and at the costs that it expects; adverse changes in applicable laws or adverse changes in the application or enforcement of current laws; the biotechnology industry and the greenhouse growers market are highly competitive, and technical advances in the industry will impact the success of the Company, and other risks described in the Company's filings that are available at . Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should assumptions underlying the forward‐looking information prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those described herein as intended, planned, anticipated, believed, estimated or expected. Although the Company has attempted to identify important risks, uncertainties and factors which could cause actual results to differ materially, there may be others that cause results not to be as anticipated, estimated or intended. The Company does not intend, and does not assume any obligation, to update this forward‐looking information except as otherwise required by applicable law.
