A protein play. The world is protein short and we get our protein from animals. They have the patent technology for extracting the protein out of the canola husk and dissolving it in soft drinks etc.

Burcon Nutrascience Corp.(BU.TO)

Sep 10, 2021
Extracts protein from vegetables like canola, peas, and soy. Has 285 patents. There is negligible revenue despite the company being around for more than 20 years. Difficult to apply fundamental analysis. Too speculative for him. Need to see revenue and profit.

WATCH

Burcon Nutrascience Corp.(BU.TO)

Dec 08, 2020

The valuation is super cheap compared to, say, Beyond Meat. This just entered a joint venture (https://www.bctechnology.com/news/2020/9/2/Burcon-NutraScience-Joint-Venture-Company-Merit-Functional-Foods-Announces-Close-of-30-million-Investment-from-new-Equity-Partner-Bunge.cfm). This will attract investors when revenues and cash flow become strong. The stock has been doing well as people buy more plant-based protein, a huge business now. Definitely one to watch.

Burcon Nutrascience Corp.(BU.TO)

Aug 01, 2019

They extract protein from soy and peas. They announced they are building a plant in Manitoba. The BeyondMeat trend is helping them. Analysts are still projecting losses in 2021, so you are buying into the expectation of future growth.

Extracts protein from canola. Hopefully will see some results before the end of the year regarding their application to the US government to be able to put their product into food. Recently announced they were able to extract protein from soy also.

WEAK BUY

Burcon Nutrascience Corp.(BU.TO)

Sep 15, 2005
Had a small speculative holding and is looking at shaving off some of the gain he's made. Has an extremely interesting product for creating extremely high quality protein. By June/06 they may have approval to be able to use the product in broader bases. Highly speculative. A go up or blow up investment. Be careful.
