Problem is, the ABC audience is so small and compact it will not make a lot of difference.

RFX use Zinc Bromine as their redox agent, rather than the Vanadium in the article. Zinc is more abundant and less messy to refine, but the principle is the same.

I don't know about that. I received a message from my son (definitely not ABC) with the link to the article, and saying
Have heard a few people say that it’s the next big mineral

...so I drew his attention to local hero RFX. Will be interested in his comments.

They certainly lack any kind of media support, whether it is a lack of positive news from the company or a lack of journalistic support for other reasons, who knows.
One would have thought they would have some data as to performance, from the Optus cell tower deployments, either the data isn't good or whoever is in charge of media releases needs sacking IMO.
You can't get market traction, without giving the market information.

I do hold and have done for a long time, but my patience is wearing thin.

As I said in post #230, what is wrong with Redflows media dept, or why aren't the media outlets promoting an Australian product, on has to wonder.
Not much hype in the mainstream media, maybe they aren't in the purple circle.?

Maybe "the Media" will take notice of the latest Investor.

Amazing that a cap raising is ABOVE the previous closing prices!
But I will take it.

Redflow secures c$2.5 million at 30% premium from strategic investor
Key highlights:
  • 5% Placement undertaken at a 30% premium to Redflow’s closing price on Friday 3Rd February 2023, when the placement was first considered
  • Introduces strategic investor Scale Facilitation® to the Company’s register, demonstrating strong endorsement of Redflow’s energy storage technology and growth opportunities
    Redflow Limited (ASX: RFX; Redflow or Company) is pleased to announce that it has secured a firm commitment from Scale Facilitation Pty Ltd (Scale Facilitation®) to raise circa $2.5 million (before costs) via a share placement (Placement).
    The Placement price of 26 cents per share represents a 30% premium to the Company’s last closing price on Friday 3 February 2023, when the placement was first considered.

    Commenting on the Placement, Redflow CEO & Managing Director Tim Harris said:

This investment, at a significant premium to the closing price on Friday 3 February 2023, when the placement was first considered, is another validation of Redflow’s energy storage solution and our growth strategy in Australia and the US. It provides the potential for Redflow to benefit from the broad energy storage ecosystem Scale Facilitation® is building in the US, Australia and other markets.”
    Scale Facilitation® Founder & CEO David A. Collard said:
    “We are focused on green energy, and building several strategic investments and key projects in this fast growing and critical sector. Having just been selected as preferred bidder for Britishvolt in the UK, we are delighted to expand our ecosystem with this investment in Redflow. The Company is a leader in flow battery technology globally, and we believe Redflow’s proven zinc based solution has a huge role to play in the burgeoning energy storage market as a complement to established Lithium battery solutions.”
    As well as providing Redflow with working capital to underpin its business plan and growth objectives, Redflow intends to use the proceeds of the equity raising to:
  • support sales and business development, core infrastructure and general working capital activities
  • support ramp up of Gen3 battery manufacturing in our Thailand facility, including funding supply

What am I missing?

This feels like a typical ASX lifestyle company. Just because a technology exists doesn't make it a profitable venture. How much do sales have to increase to turn to profitability? 500%? 1000%? And since 2017 sales have barely increased, from the annual reports I worked out they've received more money in R&D grants from our pork masters in the federal government than from actual sales. I won't even bother posting the accumulated losses or share price chart. Looks like sales are not even remotely covering the basic raw direct manufacturing inputs, forget about covering sales costs, overheads, depreciation, etc. etc. Are these guys selling these systems at a loss or something?


Reading through presentations good luck finding any easily accessible basic KPI information such as:
  • Sales by region? - Seems a lot is going to California...
  • capacity ordered?
  • Cost per /Revenue per whatever metric of battery storage you want to use
Salaries have certainly kept pace with the cost of inflation and then some... No bonus this year? No worries, here's a 10% pay rise. Maybe salaries are inversely related to the share price?
 
Well... That didn't exactly work out very well... At least they kept the deposit! This probably should be investigated...
