I’ll now flip the convention over to your host, Brian Loper. Chances are you’ll start.
Brian Loper
Thanks, John. Good afternoon, everybody, and welcome to BioLargo’s Q2 2023 quarterly outcomes convention name. By now, everybody ought to have entry to the earnings press launch, which was issued yesterday previous to market open, and the 10-Q report filed with the SEC.

The corporate undertakes no obligation to replace any forward-looking statements.
And with that, I am going to now hand the decision over to BioLargo’s Chief Govt Officer, Dennis Calvert.
Dennis Calvert
Hey, Brian, thanks very a lot. That is Dennis Calvert. I admire everybody becoming a member of us at present. And as common, we bought loads to share, so we will plow by means of lots of data rapidly. And once more, it is our privilege to have the prospect to speak to you at present.
So BioLargo, we make life higher, sustainable, innovation, centered on making a greater clear air, clear water, cleaner earth, making life higher throughout a variety of fields as an innovator and answer supplier. Our technique is fairly primary: invent it, show it and accomplice it. And we’ve got gotten a number of platform applied sciences in cycle, with a few business endeavors below our belt and extra coming. So we will spotlight these at present. We have already coated the Protected Harbor assertion by Brian. Thanks very a lot for that, Brian.
A part of our messaging is essential. Who’re we? What are we doing? Nicely, we’re scientists, engineers, entrepreneurs, ardour by making a distinction in well being and sustainability, concentrate on a mission of creating life higher. How will we try this? We concentrate on best-in-class, crucial, best-in-class options with engineering-forward applied sciences, heavy science, heavy engineering, centered on options, with out issues with out good options. That is the emphasis of the corporate, and we bought a quantity which are actually important when it comes to making a high-impact, impact-driven firm.
This can be a fairly new slide. We’re typically requested the query, how do you bought a lot occurring, how do you clarify it in a single shot? Nicely, that is an try. That is an try. It’s important to keep. I am not going to undergo all of the phrases, however actually, if you consider it, the father or mother firm is targeted on finance and technique. The engineering group helps all the working items and innovators. The Water firm is primarily centered on R&D. And the engineering firm does have some shoppers whereas we’re constructing assist for our applied sciences and business endeavors. And now because of all this innovation, placing this collectively for a business assault, we’ve got 4 business working entities.
Clyra, in fact, we talked about. Our Vitality, a brand new subsidiary with a brand new battery know-how and growth, not but business. ONM Environmental, the place our odor and VOC management merchandise are housed. Then Industrial, now, nicely over eight years, and now breaking data. After which, in fact, this new enterprise known as BioLargo Gear Science and Know-how. Colloquially, we’d say, greatest — the perfect tools, centered with an emphasis on PFAS, but additionally all the catalog of applied sciences and options centered on primarily the water business. And so it is a good approach to consider the corporate, an innovation engine with assets to assist the event, the commercialization and, finally, the exit centered on both spin out, merger and acquisition or licensure.
On the 5.5-year mark, we have accomplished 88% of what we did final 12 months. That represents 127% interval over final interval, in order that’s six months ending this 12 months. Over final six months’ ending interval, we’re up 127%. Discover that, that 88% takes us to a complete of about $5.9 million, and we have nonetheless bought half the 12 months to go, and we have got some thrilling information in regards to the enlargement occurring at Pooph. We’ll discuss additionally in regards to the quarter-over-quarter. So give me a minute, we’ll get to that in a second.
Pooph is a really thrilling product line. Keep in mind, it is a product that is bought by means of our partnership. It is an extension of our industrial merchandise that we have been promoting for about eight years and persevering with to develop organically. Made a partnership with a advertising and marketing group, Ikigai Advertising, developed a model known as Pooph. We secured the availability chain settlement because the producer. We licensed know-how with a really discrete particular license centered on pet odor management. And we bargained for 20% of the model exit finally, when Pooph decides to exit and promote the corporate. Their said mission is to ramp it as much as about $100 million a 12 months in gross sales and searching for an exit of three.5 instances to 7 instances on the exit. That is their said mission.
The rollout at Walmart, there’s about 2,000 shops which are at the moment carrying the product. That is a tough estimate. It is vitally tough to maintain up with the logistics because it rolls out. It did take just a little longer than anticipated. And in consequence, there’s nonetheless about 1,000 shops to nonetheless obtain the success of stock, so it may be bought on the cabinets.
Now the excellent news is there’s an addition of about 12 further retailers, who come on board lately and that quantity is increasing. So we do imagine the Pooph revenues will proceed to develop considerably, and we’d actually say dramatically. And to that time, they’ve knowledgeable us that they imagine that by the tip of the 12 months 2023, they will have roughly 20,000-plus retail shops below contract to hold the road.
Now we at all times hesitate only a bit, as a result of the logistics related to securing these agreements generally can take a month, generally can take three and, within the largest case, we have seen it take even 5 to 6 months. So actually, I believe the way in which everybody ought to take into account that is it is thrilling as a result of it represents an enormous broad distribution plan. Contracts are already in place to hold a lot of that alongside the way in which. There might be further retailers that may come on within the subsequent three to 4 months plus. However as you attain maturity at that form of affect, 20,000-plus stores, assuming minimums, it turns into a pressure to be reckoned with plus DTC, that is direct-to-consumer, Amazon and Walmart, that are already below contract.
In order these are achieved over the approaching months, we would prefer to say 4 to, let’s name it, 9, one thing like that, we do not know precisely, we’ll see this affect translate to revenues. And it represents a couple of 10 instances over present promoting assets which are in place for this product. Keep in mind, as a provide chain accomplice, as they develop, we develop. As they become profitable, we become profitable. It is an excellent state of affairs, they usually’ve proven some brilliance.
As we mentioned in our press launch, they’re an organization that executes with precision. We’re right here to assist them any approach we probably can. And we predict the monetary implications of this alone, as these numbers are achieved, it holds the great prospect of heading in direction of actually constructive money move and even surpassing our overhead on a totally loaded GAAP accounting non-cash foundation.
The spike. The spike from Q1 to Q2, proper? So Q1 was an enormous, large efficiency. And to present Ikigai and Pooph credit score, they correctly stocked up in preparation of a nationwide account with an enormous nationwide footprint, in order that they’ve the stock readily available to satisfy the demand and the time frames, no matter that was, for deployment as Walmart rolled out the product. Because of having such a excessive degree of stock, we noticed a falloff within the buy orders from Pooph in Q2. And now as we’re into Q3, we’re watching these numbers come again to stabilizing and starting to extend once more. And naturally, that is reflective with the extra retail accounts, the logistics catching up with the launching of those retail shops.
And so we will watch that quantity pattern backwards in a pleasant development pattern that we imagine is reflective of their historic, which is averaging about 20% quarter-over-quarter development on the Pooph facet. And naturally, that represents traditionally 80-some p.c of our whole income efficiency, and in order that’s an enormous deal for the corporate. So extra to return.
After all, our money place displays that. Q1 was such an enormous quarter. ONM produced constructive money in extra of $1 million. In order that was an enormous deal for the corporate. Q2 was down. Consequently, we used additional cash, however we’ve got been capable of enhance our internet shareholder fairness, which we’ll discuss in only a second, and so very a lot in keeping with the Pooph gross sales. Our money used and money generated is marrying that pattern. And once more, we will watch the pattern head again north right here in Q3, which we’re very pleased for, in fact.
Web stockholder fairness elevated to $4.12 million because of the tip of the second quarter, that was primarily attributable to Q1’s extra income, in fact, a huge impact. After which Q2, we additionally introduced in further capital to assist our battery know-how and the medical firm, which is absolutely good. As a result of what that does is it lessens the burden on the company workplace, if we are able to enable for direct funding into these alternatives, which we’ve got, as a result of we imagine that is so substantial and the traders imagine so, too. In order that’s been an excellent state of affairs for the corporate as nicely to leverage these property with direct funding quite than dilution on the father or mother to present us that range and capital to develop.
I am going to remind all people that, that $4 million, as the corporate evaluates potential uplifting methods, these are crucial numbers. As well as, in fact, lowering the burn fee could be very, very important. And in order most individuals take a look at the corporate with these tendencies, we have got lots of analysts speaking about This autumn, Q1, heading into that constructive money move state of affairs the place our present business success is adequate to truly carry the corporate to the purpose the place it could not want to boost a lot capital to maintain itself, if in any respect. And naturally, we’re cautious as a result of we predict that the present valuation is low, and we need to reduce dilution. And we do imagine that these business endeavors will increase our profile and enhance consciousness for the corporate.
So in abstract, the extra last data is essential, 5.188, 127% year-over-year for a similar interval, important quantity, and 88% of final 12 months — final quarter — final 12 months’s income within the first six months. So in six months, we have accomplished 88% of what we did final 12 months. Now we did see an enormous drop off at 61%. In order that quantity was large in Q1 and low in Q2. Assume the reason is true in entrance of us. Stocking up at Walmart and the delay in success actually did affect us all, however that quantity is already turning. And so we’re happy for that.
I believe the opposite important numbers, engineering, we have talked about this earlier than. As we’re ramping up infrastructure for these creating property, the engineering group is spending fairly a little bit of time supporting these. In order that creates inner billings, all of which is eliminating the consolidation. So that they did the work that, if constructed, would have been roughly $550,000. However from a income perspective, for third-party contracts, that quantity is $131,000 for the Q2.
And naturally, BioLargo is supporting lots of our endeavors with R&D work and, in fact, supporting the AOS for its business launch. After which on the Clyra facet, you will discover a rise within the loss at Clyra, that is as a result of cash has come into Clyra, giving it the instruments to develop for gross sales and advertising and marketing and its efforts to get the phrase out about know-how and merchandise all through their business. So they’re very aggressively now advertising and marketing across the business.
Okay, the household of firms. I am going to simply reiterate that the corporate, as we talked about, basically — let me return to it actual fast. As we talked about in slide quantity 5, right here it comes, the corporate has a portfolio of applied sciences in varied levels of growth. We imagine every one in all these has an opportunity to be a disruptor of their house. They’re all transferring ahead in some significant approach. and I am pleased to reply some questions on these within the Q&A.
So I believe, for the second, we’ll cease, open this up for Q&A, and see if we are able to get some extra detailed data for all of you. Brian?
Query-and-Reply Session
A – Brian Loper
Nice. Thanks, Dennis. Wonderful overview of what we’ve got occurring right here. So some normal questions on BioLargo and the way issues are coming alongside. Are you able to discuss full-time staff at BioLargo and any hiring plans?
Dennis Calvert
Sure. I can confirm our precise quantity. I need to say 32 or 33, one thing like that, on full-time staff. The — we’ve got numerous people who additionally share a while. So consultants that additionally give us expertise to do some very particular issues which are of excessive worth for the corporate. After which we’ve got a cadre of contractors that we convey them below the engineering group once we win a few of these massive bids. So that is the group.
Relative to hiring, I believe the idea is fairly easy. We need to rent as we develop, not earlier than. It is simple to say. It’s totally tough to do. However that’s what we’re doing. We do not need to develop our overhead till we see business adoption with some traction on our AEC for PFAS and our Water Applied sciences and Clyra, the identical factor. We simply need to hold it lean and imply till we get that first market adoption that begins to propel into repetitive enterprise.
And we imagine that is right here in entrance of us. And so it would put some stress on our group. As you’ll be able to think about, specifically, the engineering group is supporting previous know-how, innovating new and serving shoppers. They have loads on their plate. And so I can see us actually specializing in hiring further employees within the engineering group as both these long-term contracts are secured or we see the swell of business exercise to justify that further employees. And once more, given the relationships, we predict that is doable within the quick run, and it wants a extra strategic plan in the long term, topic to capital and income.
Brian Loper
Okay. Thanks very a lot. So everybody is aware of, BioLargo is segmented, proper? That new slide that you simply put in there’s nice visible to get a way of the totally different divisions, how the subsidiaries work with the mom ship right here? So on the subject of water, are you able to discuss just a little bit extra in regards to the AEC? Are some other tasks ready on the outcomes or completion of that? Are there different adopters that may get their very own tasks underway? Have the outcomes up to now on the Midwest buyer achieved non-detect standing? A bit bit extra on the AEC.
Dennis Calvert
Positive. Sure, positive. We might simply give a brief replace on the enterprise normally. So up till now and for the subsequent quarter or so, we will be transitioning from incubating the AEC asset on the father or mother and on the engineering degree into BioLargo Gear. In order that’s the thought. And on the P&L foundation, that is going to take us just a little little bit of time to make the total integration.
However from a promoting and positioning perspective, it occurs fairly fast. And so the way in which to consider that’s while you take a look at what Tonya Chandler has accomplished, a few crucial issues. She’s now being requested to talk all around the nation frequently. And I believe it was a couple of week in the past, possibly 5 days in the past, she did a seven hour persevering with training class in Las Vegas to a bunch of engineers for persevering with training credit score on PFAS, for seven hours. That is lots of PFAS for seven hours. Anyway, it is fairly particular that, and as well as, we’ll be at WEFTEC developing within the fall, and we’ll make an enormous presence. We’ll have an entire group there, a really massive sales space, a number of property, demonstration items and our knowledge. And it truly is the primary time that we have been ready to current ourselves on a unified entrance as a know-how and answer supplier to that business.
On the ground, on the deck, at one of many largest commerce conferences on the earth, WEFTEC, in Chicago developing in, I believe, it is October. Anyway, relative to the promoting channel, we have got about eight agreements representing now, pushing 100 reps which are certified and in means of taking our data to {the marketplace}. And we’ve got numerous tasks which have indicated an curiosity in transferring ahead with us, and we’re hoping that within the very close to future, we’ll have a few of these head into secured contracts.
It is fascinating, with the regulatory change and the elevated consciousness, after which with a few of the settlements which are occurring, on these very massive class actions, multistate class actions, I believe the final settlement was virtually $10.2 billion for group and a category motion of water companies suing for PFAS contamination as one of many polluters, There is a swell of curiosity occurring in PFAS, and we’re terribly nicely positioned. Having mentioned that, there’s nonetheless this regulatory threshold that has not turn out to be mandate, which will not happen till Q1 of 2024. In order that’s one other six to 9 months away.
Now Tonya and the group are on the leading edge of information in regards to the interface with hazmat ingesting water versus wastewater or versus product remedy applied sciences, what you do with the waste stream, we’re skilled in these areas. And because of that information, we imagine we’re very nicely positioned to achieve a dramatic approach. What we’re watching on early adopters continues to be very a lot previous know-how. We do not see new know-how being adopted. We see previous carbon ion change programs, which we all know won’t obtain the specs which are being prescribed for efficiency, they usually produce other sensible limitations in value and waste disposal. In order we watch that market, we’ve got but to see a competitor convey forth the know-how that might evaluate to the worth proposition that we set forth in ours.
Now I can even say that from a technical development perspective, our know-how continues to advance and get higher. We’re not ready to make lots of disclosure about that, however our efficiency economically and our efficiency relative to the numerous small waste stream as in comparison with the alternate options is multiples of what we thought it could be in our favor. That is the important thing. So it is higher than we thought it could be.
And so our efficiency outcomes on all these trials that we’re doing proceed to boost our claims. However a few of which may be patentable, so we’re actually holding a few of that near the vest till we are able to get our enhanced patent exercise on report. Nevertheless it’s very thrilling as a result of it additionally implies that our financial proposition turns into even that extra compelling. So keep in mind, once we began, we have been 1,000 on the waste stream. We predict it is multiples of that. And once more, we have not seen competitors actually knock on the door with that form of declare.
Now there’s lots of firms speaking about innovation within the house, and it is — and there is lots of enterprise capital swelling, and the federal government is swelling with capital. However the fact is early adopters have moved. Lots of the early adopters have adopted know-how that won’t meet the mark. And the market is as ripe because it ever was. The opposite factor that is fascinating is while you discuss the way forward for this market, the longer term, we mentioned it one time, some individuals are saying it could possibly be a $1 trillion market.
That is much more frequent now than it was even 9 months in the past. There is a swell of exercise that is occurring at PFAS due to all of the litigation, all of the settlement, all the general public outcry an consciousness. And the affect of PFAS goes nicely past ingesting water, nicely past. It is virtually ubiquitous within the setting. So I’ve mentioned earlier than, that is going to maintain us busy for 20 years. No query. We’ll be busy for 20 years on this one.
So whereas it is irritating that it would not undertake quick, and it is hard-slugging to get these first adopters, we’re assured that we’ll and that we’re in a great place. And we’re anxious additionally, as everybody is aware of, for the go ahead on Section 2 of our massive mission, our industrial account that we introduced roughly virtually 9 — about none months in the past, possibly extra, the place we did Section 1 and we’re ready for Section 2. It has not moved ahead.
And I am going to inform you that I believe the learn on that — two issues that I might remark for folks to remember. The primary is that the regulatory entrance continues to be transferring very a lot. And folks wait and wait and wait till somebody makes them do it. That is the very first thing. Second factor, and once more, the mandates are right here. They are going into impact. The testing limits are terribly low. And the identification of PFAS as a hazmat is uniform all through the market. That is one.
Second is, with the monetary instances, there’s lots of people hanging on to cash ready to see what holds sooner or later with the Fed fee and what is going on to occur on the subsequent market dynamics, particularly coming into the autumn, to see if we’re in an inflationary interval or whether or not they should put capital to work in an issue that they simply assume not fastened till they need to. So there’s just a little little bit of each occurring. I believe the capital market’s affect might be better than we realized.
We’re witnessing throughout the Engineering group and the Water group, there’s lots of clients who mentioned sure, who’ve scoped and priced and bid and shook our hand and mentioned, we’re in, we’re in, we’re in, and we nonetheless do not have a signed contract. So that may be very irritating. However we all know, in the long run, our know-how can prevail. We have good relationships with these clients, and we’ll discover our begin and get entering into a extra significant approach. In order that’s my replace on PFAS and the Water enterprise for now, Brian. Subsequent?
Brian Loper
Nice. Nice. On that entrance, are you able to discuss any extra about gross sales with Garratt-Callahan?
Dennis Calvert
Sure. Once more, lengthy cycles, for much longer than anticipated. All people hear it on a regular basis. We have been forecasting success final summer season. And right here we’re coming into the mid-summer and we’re nonetheless ready. The excellent news is that the entire sequence of issues have been completed.
One, as you understand, we did an illustration machine in our location with clients — cannot keep in mind when — latest historical past. We have additionally constructed a business unit that is able to going out on a conveyable trailer that may now be taken to shopper areas and carried out and exhibit its efficacy. In order that’s an enormous deal. We additionally know from Garratt-Callahan that there is a renewed vigor to see this get right into a business mode. And so numerous shoppers are in course of. And we imagine that, once more, we’re actually close to the mark of getting success in transferring ahead with the client.
The opposite factor, in fact, is that Garratt-Callahan, due to the advancing of PFAS globally in addition to everybody’s consciousness, together with any business has heard about PFAS now, they’re significantly enthusiastic about representing the PFAS know-how into their buyer base as nicely. So our work with them is stay, persevering with, very lively. And prospects, once more, very very like PFAS, coming to the desk, searching for the primary profitable ventures. And we’re knocking on the door, so hopefully, it is very, very quickly.
Brian Loper
Nice. Nice. So switching channels right here. We’ve some questions in regards to the sodium-sulfur battery. So BioLargo Vitality Applied sciences, Inc. is the subsidiary in control of that, of taking a look at. Are you able to give us a little bit of an replace on the prototype or commercialization? What is going on on there?
Dennis Calvert
Sure, it is very thrilling, really. So recall that we acquired the know-how we raised, just below $1 million, from direct traders into the subsidiary. Offered a small portion of the corporate to capitalize these efforts. After which we have now taken that cash devoted to the constructing of a prototype manufacturing line. In order that’s in our constructing, our constructing complicated in Oak Ridge, Tennessee, adjoining to our Engineering group. And we’re constructing a prototype line. A line — it is a sequence of instruments and machines that make batteries. So the overall contracts have been employed. We’re now coming in on the ultimate levels of the development of the ability.
In order that’s HVAC, electrical energy, lights, energy, air flow, all of the issues essential to assist that line, and requisition of all of the requisite tools, lots of tools. All that tools is being delivered, together with provides and supplies. We might prefer to be within the second to say the road is stay, one thing like 45 to 70 days, one thing like that. A bit grace required as a result of we’re ready for folks to ship. However as soon as all that’s in a single place, they will undergo some preliminary testing begin to make prototypes. So I might prefer to say that we’ll be within the prototype supply enterprise hopefully earlier than the tip of the 12 months or thereabouts.
Once more, lots of stuff is hitting us. And a few of that is impacted additionally by the rise in contracting for engineering companies and the opposite endeavors. However we’re actually centered on getting these prototypes out. As a result of as soon as the prototypes are in our possession, we are able to do verification testing to confirm claims after which additionally start advertising and marketing and positioning these for adoption with shopper companions. And in order that’s the place we’re at.
Brian Loper
Okay. Wonderful. All proper. Let’s change channels once more to Clyra. So on the Annual Shareholder Assembly just a few months in the past now, Steve, the manager over Clyra, was alluding to — sure. So we’re questioning if we’re allowed to speak about that information or what is going on on there?
Dennis Calvert
Sure, there’s loads occurring there. Keep in mind, Clyra is the total — one other full-circle story for the corporate like ONM. That is one thing we have been speaking about since inception. And we lastly bought the cash and regulatory approval after which the primary shoppers within the market. So there’s a few issues occurring. First is that there is an unbiased gross sales pressure that is been assembled, they usually’re very concerned about transferring ahead. And Steve and his group have began taking part in advertising and marketing exhibits, the place they’re presenting to physicians who could make sure selections. After which there’s logistical issues that need to occur behind that, like getting accepted on formularies at surgical procedure facilities and hospitals.
So there’s lots of work within the setup earlier than you’ll be able to actually go to scale, okay? In order that’s ongoing. And now with just a little little bit of capital, we have got assets to execute on that entrance. Second, the strategic companions that we have recognized are very concerned about transferring ahead. We’re very enthusiastic about it. The concept the product might leap into a world — nationwide adoption with world companions is one thing that is very thrilling to us. And we imagine the innovation deserves to be positioned at that degree.
So we’re in deep in discussions on logistics phrases, pricing, rights that you’d anticipate with a possible program like that, and we’re very optimistic about its success. After all, topic to being affected person, whereas we negotiate with some very, very massive firms to get their consideration and get within the queue to launch product. The wonder about this one is, as we mentioned since inception, we imagine the claims are disrupted by nature.
And as we now are positioned for important business success, we are able to see how the market during the last decade has been pushed in direction of us, as aggressive merchandise which have market share and have achieved some monetary success at the moment are falling below nice stress due to their potential toxicity, whether or not localized or systemic. And that market is shifting very quickly, and it is shifting in direction of Clyra.
So simply — let me simply illustrate that for only a second. When you’re an organization that has a product that is making a market, most firms die. When you’re making a product that dislodges incumbents due to technical advance like ours, the proposition for fulfillment is exponentially larger, and that is the place we’re at.
We’re not having to create the market. The market has been established because of now the leaders having bother with the fundamental know-how of their answer and the extraordinary claims of Clyra’s product, particularly biofilm efficacy, sustained launch, as much as treating antimicrobial residual exercise, no cyto and no systemic tox, with efficiency that matches all rivals from a efficiency efficacy perspective, it stands out because the primary available in the market. There is a hole in that market, and we will fill it.
So we imagine essentially the most prudent factor for us to do is to barter for strategic companions that may actually see that imaginative and prescient come actual in a brief time frame — shorter time frame and discover the precise companions which are culturally the identical mindset and likewise will deal with us in a good approach. So we predict that is the imaginative and prescient for large success, and we predict it is proper in entrance of us. So keep tuned, extra data to return.
Brian Loper
All proper. Recognize that, Dennis. Sure, that — these are all of the questions for now. So I admire you going over these.
Dennis Calvert
Sure. So do you need to do a closing then?
Brian Loper
Positive factor.
Dennis Calvert
Okay, all people. Thanks on your time. We’re coming in nearly 35 minutes, so hopefully, we’re succinct and full. We welcome you to achieve out, in fact, e-mail us at information@biolargo.com. You may attain me straight. This can be a very thrilling time. I believe the trending in direction of that 100%-plus development fee is one thing that we’re striving for, for the 12 months. And if the pattern continues as represented, and with just a little luck, a few of these large contracts will are available in. We’ll see ‘23 and ‘24 form as much as be the perfect 12 months within the historical past of the corporate. So we predict it is well worth the wait and well worth the effort, and I need to admire everybody for his or her assist. Go, BioLargo.
Brian Loper
Thanks, Dennis.
Dennis Calvert
Thanks.
Operator
