BURCON NUTRASCIENCE WKN: 157793 ISIN: CA1208311029 Kürzel: BU Forum: Aktien Thema: Hauptdiskussion

Bunge increased its stake in Merit JV in 2H'2021, and their path to an even larger stake leads to several positive scenarios for Burcon shareholders. On recent Q1'22 call, Bunge management disclosed $500 million to $1 billion of the $2 billion in its growth capex pipeline is "within alternative protein". As noted above, Burcon's proprietary technology has led to its Merit Functional Foods JV signing over 500 NDAs with companies across the entire food industry. Merit's best-in-class pea & canola-based proteins have also attracted one of the leading global players in the agribusiness industry that did over $59 billion in revenues in 2021, Bunge Ltd. (BG). After an initial investment in Merit in August 2020, Bunge upped their stake in the 2H'2021 and now owns ~29% of the Merit JV, just below Burcon's 31.6% ownership. Slide Showing Key Terms & Ownership Stakes in Merit JV Key Terms & Ownership Stakes in Merit JV (Burcon Presentation) For investors in Burcon there was plenty to be encouraged about after Bunge's recent Q1'2022 call on April 27th. In particular, during the Q&A several analysts focused on M&A potential arising in the current environment and centered questions on the "robust pipeline of opportunities in the range of $2 billion of projects" that Bunge's management provided on the call regarding its growth capex. For reference, here is a summary of some of the relevant Q&A on this topic: **Vincent Andrews - Morgan Stanley analyst - "...I just had a follow-up on the comments before about the excess liquidity and I think Greg you said $2 billion you'd be willing to allocate..." **Gregory Heckman - CEO - "...Overall, one of the things that we are excited about, we've got the best pipeline of organic projects, and the best pipeline of acquisitive targets that we've had put together since we're here at the company..." **CFO John Neppl CFO in response to questions from Goldman Sachs analyst, Adam Samuelson - "...we've mentioned before, the $7 baseline didn't include any growth CapEx and so obviously we've got a pretty robust pipeline of opportunities today in the range of $2 billion of projects...maybe not all those will get done we'll see, but we may identify other opportunities as well. But we're very confident that with prudent capital allocation over the next couple of years...we will have improved the baseline of this company by investing capital in good projects..." **CEO Greg Heckman also in response to questions from Goldman Sachs analyst, Adam Samuelson - "Yeah, I think we'll be pretty comfortable to say that we've got north of $2 billion of capacity today and certainly for the right opportunity, we'd be willing to stretch that in the near term... We do feel like we're in a very strong position today with all of our metrics and our leverage ratio is low, as low as it's been in a very, very long time. And I think...we've got the people and the processes in place to manage some pretty significant opportunities."

ein teil mal... aus dem conf call von bunge

zuu viel als dass man es hier veröffentlichen könnte

Kann ihn diesmal leider nicht öffnen. Keine Ahnung warum. Bisher konnte ich diese Schranke ja immer wunderbar umgehen. Was steht denn drin?

einfach den seekingalpha-artikel lesen - unglaublich...

VERkaufen tut meist Broker Code 001 = anonymous // sicheres zeichen für manipulation... also muss massiv was zu holen sein.

Vielleicht weil er einfach Geld braucht ? Einer hat über 22 Millionen Aktien (Yiu Lun Chan ) die Liste kann man sehen . Es ist nur eine Vermutung von mir .

Wenn die Firma so gut wäre, warum verkauft der Investor deiner Meinung nach bei so extrem tiefen Kursen?

Ich denke ein Großer Investor verkauft nach und nach seine gesamten Aktien. Es ist eine gute Firma mit Zukunft. Irgendwann fängt es an stetig zu steigen. Es ist so ein Bauchgefühl.

Zurzeit absolut kein Geld und zu viele Baustellen. Außerdem wird für den Urlaub gespart. Aber ja, ich wollte eigentlich den EK senken, aber dafür fehlen mir im Moment die Anreize bzw Perspektiven.

Schau dir Beyond Meat an. Die geben auch massiv ab. Grundsätzlich sehe ich es genau wie du. Ich persönlich esse auch gern die Ersatzprodukte. Kaufst du nach?

Fällt unaufhaltsam... 😟 Dabei wird ständig berichtet, dass immer mehr Fleischersatzprodukte konsumiert und vor allem auch verlangt werden.

Ja es ist irgendwie komisch , sobald es ein bisschen steigt fällt es direkt wieder ab.

Auf den Kurs hat es leider wieder gar keinen Einfluss. 😒
