"We saw your announcement about your 2022 revenues being 125% higher than the previous year. What accounted for such a dramatic increase?", asked Jolly. "We partnered with a group called Ikigai Marketing Works and created a product called Pooph," Calvert explained. "Walmart recently announced that they will be going nationwide with it in Q2," said Calvert, adding that the product is being advertised on television nationally. "Chewy, one of the largest online retailers, has picked it up, along with other retailers."
Calvert elaborated, "We sell our product to them on a wholesale basis and we get a royalty on sales. We also bargained to participate in their equity," he added, noting that the equity agreement is for 20% of the company. "It is a great business model for BioLargo," said Calvert. "This is our number one mover right now, and I think we are just scratching the surface."
"Can you give us an update on your treatment technology for PFAS, also known as 'forever chemicals', in water?", asked Jolly. "Well, the EPA finally came out with the proposed detection limits of four parts per trillion," said Calvert. "With the limits being so low, it expands the scope of the market astronomically, and will include not just drinking water but water used in food production, cosmetics, and other industrial applications," he explained, adding that PFAS chemicals have been linked to birth defects and cancer.
Calvert discussed the Company's own PFAS treatment device, which recently secured its first customer. "To get mass adoption, we need to show full-scale adoption," said Calvert. "We have done about ten trials," he added. "We now have national representation on channel partners, ten agreements have been signed, and we are now getting three to four projects per week proposed to us," shared Calvert. "The pending list of opportunities is worth well over 100 million."
"To our knowledge, we are the only commercially viable technology that makes the claim that it can achieve a non-detect status," continued Calvert. "It is a significant claim, and we have proven it."
Jolly then asked about the Company's recently announced acquisition of a sodium-sulfur battery technology. "One of the co-developers and engineers, who spent five to eight years refining the design to make a sodium-sulfur battery, brought this technology to us," said Calvert. "We acquired the technology and brought the engineer and co-developer to our team, now we are in the replication process for the battery," he explained, adding that the battery is designed to fill a void in the market for safe, long-term fixed site energy storage, like EV charging stations, renewable energy production sites, and grid-scale energy storage.
"Lithium has its drawbacks; it cannot be charged to 100% and cannot be discharged to 0%, it also has a limited functional life," continued Calvert. "We believe we could get a 20-year battery from this with no rare Earth elements, as well as incredible efficiency and a low cost of materials," he explained, adding that the battery also has a much lower risk of runaway fire compared to lithium-ion based technologies which can be highly explosive.
To close the interview Calvert encouraged listeners and shareholders to keep up to date on the Company's current and upcoming projects as they continue to expand and grow an innovative pipeline of technologies.
