The Company
Loop Industries, Inc. (the “Company,” “Loop Industries,” “we,” or “our”) is a technology company that owns patented and proprietary technology that depolymerizes no and low-value waste PET plastic and polyester fiber to its base building blocks (monomers). The monomers are filtered, purified and polymerized to create virgin-quality Loop™ branded PET resin suitable for use in food-grade packaging and polyester fiber. The Company is currently in the development stage with no revenues. The Company is in the process of pursuing the construction of Infinite Loop™ commercial scale facilities in Québec, Canada, and with strategic partners in Europe and South Korea. Additionally, the company has a joint venture to pursue the retrofitting of existing fossil fuel PET polymerization facilities with its recycling technology.
Risks and uncertainties
Our ability to implement our business plan and generate future operating revenues depends in part on whether we can obtain the necessary financing through a combination of the issuance of debt, equity, and/or joint ventures and/or government incentive programs. We have committed a portion of our cash on hand for certain long lead equipment in connection with the Bécancour project. We expect to enter into additional commitments to move the project ahead within our targeted construction timeframes. However, there is a risk that we may not be able to attract additional financing through debt or equity markets. Even if additional financing is available, it may not be available on terms favorable to us. Our failure to secure additional financing on favorable terms when it becomes required would have an adverse effect on our ability to execute our business plan.
