What impact does Sequester potentially have on the nutritional value of crops produced? Thank you, Dr. Glenna McCollum, DM MPH RDN FAND A: Hello Dr. McCollum, and thank you for your thoughtful question. Sequester harnesses proprietary strains of cyanobacteria, natural soil microbes, to restore the essential soil functions of cycling carbon, water and nutrients in depleted soils. “Living soil” refers to the essential microorganisms that drive these soil functions. Planting in healthy, functional soils is the foundation for highly nutritious food. Today, most soils are in a depleted state, therefore the nutritional value of our fo... - Q: I have a couple of questions: 1) How does the company make money? - Who is/are the intended users/consumers of the company's product, and what are the primary objections from this customer base as to why they elect not to move forward? - In this vein, assuming it is involves a... A: Michael, I'm glad to answer your questions. 1) How does the company make money? Income for Biodel AG is generated from two manufactured products. First is a patented plant extract called Isoprenoid Amino Complex (IAC) that is used as an ingredient in biological plant fertility and biostimulant products under a License agreement. Biodel AG processes the extract and receives a set price per gallon of material delivered. We enjoy a 75% gross margin and sales are growing rapidly year-over-year. S... - Q: I would like to try the product where can I purchase it? A: Thank you, Michael. Shop Sequester at: https://sequester.ag/ - Q: Looks like a great product addressing an important challenge for sustainable agriculture. However, I'm a little concerned about the financial position with little cash on hand, an overdue loan at a high-interest rate and I'm unclear what happened to the $660k in equity financi... A: Morning Iain, and thanks for your interest. In response to your questions: (1) Cash position is low right now, as we have been building our marketing program for Sequester in addition to our regular costs. Also, this business is a seasonal and Q3 is historically the slow period. We manage cash flow very carefully. Our objective to go out with this capital raise at this time is to fund the market introduction of Sequester, which has to be done prior to the spring marketing season. (2) The loan... - Q: I am excited to see a product that will help us restore our soils using a more natural approach. I very much hope you are a success in your mission! Is the license from Phyco BioSciences Inc. for Cyanoblend exclusive for Biodel AG Inc. and/or is it possible that a larger compa... A: William, Thank you for your detailed questions. I will answer them numerically: 1) Is the license with Phyco BioSciences Inc exclusive? Yes, it is exclusive to Biodel AG Inc. 2) Is it possible that a larger company could easily start making their own version of Cyanoblend (Sequester)? Regardless of company size, others can certainly identify cyanobacteria strains and culture them for use as a soil reclamation product. Of course this would take a number of years to accomplish as significant te...
