  • Company is pleased to announce that the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has recently approved PyroGenesis’ Shares for listing in the US.
  • The only remaining request from the SEC, before rendering the Company’s Shares effective, is that upon final NASDAQ acceptance, the Company provides the SEC with at least 3 days’ prior notice of its intended listing date.

MONTREAL, Feb. 18, 2021 — PyroGenesis Canada Inc. (http://pyrogenesis.com) (TSX: PYR) (OTCQB: PYRNF) (FRA: 8PY), (the “Company”, the “Corporation” or “PyroGenesis”) a Company that designs, develops, manufactures and commercializes plasma atomized metal powder, plasma waste-to-energy systems and plasma torch products, is pleased to provide, further to its Press Release dated February 2 nd , 2021, an update on the Company’s application to list its common shares (“Shares”) on the NASDAQ Stock Exchange (“NASDAQ”). NASDAQ is the second largest exchange by market capitalization worldwide, and is home to many of the world’s best technology companies.

The Company is pleased to announce that the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has recently approved PyroGenesis’ Shares for listing in the US. The only remaining request from the SEC, before rendering the Company’s Shares effective, is that upon final NASDAQ acceptance, the Company provides the SEC with at least 3 days’ prior notice of its intended listing date.

With respect to the NASDAQ application, the Company is pleased to announce that it believes it has responded to all questions to the full satisfaction of the exchange. The last outstanding item at this time, before final NASDAQ acceptance, is to have the Company’s Shares become eligible for electronic clearing and settlement through the Depository Trust Company (DTC). DTC eligibility is required in order to create a seamless electronic process of trading and thereby enhance liquidity of the Company’s Shares. This is currently in process with DTC.

As previously disclosed, there will not be a concurrent financing associated with this listing nor will there be a reverse stock split.

“We are pleased to be in the final moments before a NASDAQ listing,” said Mr. P. Peter Pascali, CEO and Chair of PyroGenesis. “We have been extremely satisfied with the increased visibility our recent uplisting to Canada’s premiere exchange, the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX), has had. We expect this move to NASDAQ will further increase awareness of PyroGenesis and its offerings, both within the financial community and amongst potential clients. Upon final NASDAQ approval, the Board of Directors of PyroGenesis will choose a listing date that will be most beneficial to the Company while taking into consideration other events that are taking place.”

VIDEO – PyroGenesis $PYR.ca Goes Live For Q&A With Shareholders As Market Cap Surpasses $1 BILLION

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 6:02 PM on Tuesday, February 9th, 2021

To say that PyroGenesis Canada (PYR:TSX) and its CEO, Peter Pascali, share a mutual love and respect with shareholders unlike anything we have ever seen is not an overstatement.  

This is a group (Company, CEO and Shareholders) that have been through the highs and lows of PyroGenesis over the years TOGETHER.  That bond only got tighter when Pascali took to the PYR Verified Forum on AGORACOM to speak with investors directly and openly with his first ever post on June 21, 2017 followed by more than 20 in-depth videos in which he took his engagement with investors even deeper by answering every single question possible to the best of his ability.  

Knowing this, it should not surprise anybody learning about PyroGenesis for the first time that shareholders have coined the rallying call of “In Peter We Trust”.  

Today PyroGenesis, Pascali and shareholders shared another major milestone together in a live Q&A that coincided with PyroGenesis surpassing a $1 BILLION MARKET CAP.  It was an incredibly special event that could not be made clearer than by many of the questions and comments that referred not just to the Company’s bottom – but to its soul and philosophy.    

I’ve never seen it before.  All I can say is that it is a thrill to be witness to and part of something this deeply special in an industry that rarely looks beyond the next quarter.  

Congratulations to Peter, the Pyro team and this incredible group of shareholders.  

George and the AGORACOM team.  

Watch, listen and enjoy today’s interview with CEO Peter Pascali.

PyroGenesis $PYR.ca Signs Additional $1.1MM Contract with US Tunneling Company $RTN $NOC $UTX $DDD.ca $HPQ.ca

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 8:45 AM on Wednesday, December 16th, 2020
  • Further to its press releases dated April 1 st and 21 st , 2020, it has signed an additional contract (the “Contract”) with a US based tunneling client (the “Client”) for approx. $1.1MM.
  • The total value of all contracts, including the one announced today, entered into with the Client is in excess of $3.6MM.
  • The Company has received $1.3MM to date under these contracts.
  • The Client’s name will remain confidential for competitive reasons.

MONTREAL, Dec. 16, 2020 — PyroGenesis Canada Inc. (http://pyrogenesis.com) (TSX: PYR) (OTCQB: PYRNF) (FRA: 8PY), (the “Company”, the “Corporation” or “PyroGenesis”) a Company that designs, develops, manufactures and commercializes plasma atomized metal powder, plasma waste-to-energy systems and plasma torch products, is pleased to announce today that, further to its press releases dated April 1 st and 21 st , 2020, it has signed an additional contract (the “Contract”) with a US based tunneling client (the “Client”) for approx. $1.1MM. The total value of all contracts, including the one announced today, entered into with the Client is in excess of $3.6MM. The Company has received $1.3MM to date under these contracts. The Client’s name will remain confidential for competitive reasons.

Based on these contracts, PyroGenesis will be designing, manufacturing, testing and supplying the Client with a plasma torch tailored specifically for tunneling (the “TT1 Torch”). The TT1 Torch is expected to be delivered in the second half of 2021, at which time it will then be tested. The Client is committed to purchase exclusively from PyroGenesis, and the Company is committed to exclusively supply the Client with plasma torches and auxiliary equipment for tunneling applications.

PyroGenesis’ high-powered plasma torch will be used to replace traditional tunneling methods. An important benefit in using plasma-based tools versus traditional methods is its potential to drill through all geologies with greater flexibility in size diameter, while at the same time being more economical, efficient and environmentally friendly.

“This is the second announcement PyroGenesis has made in as many months which highlight advances in our plasma torch offerings,” said Mr. P Peter Pascali, CEO and Chair of PyroGenesis. “As you can see, not only are our torch offerings steadily moving forward, but are doing so in totally independent applications. This bodes well for the future and once again, underscores both the interest in, and versatility of, our torch offerings which at the same time are being recognized as effective environmental solutions.”
