("Plant Impact" or the "Group")
Research & Development Platform and Pipeline
Presentation
Plant Impact plc (AIM: PIM), a leader in research and
development in crop enhancement products that growers can rely on
to improve the yield and quality of crops, is pleased to publish
the first presentation on its research and development ("R&D")
platform and pipeline. The full presentation can be found at
www.plantimpact.com/investors
The Group's R&D platform is highly differentiated within the
emerging crop enhancement sector and is focused on bringing
products to market over the next 5 years, with the first pipeline
product expected to launched by 2020. The platform begins with an
understanding of key yield-limiting physiological and biochemical
plant responses. It then prioritises soybean and wheat as model
dicot and monocot crops to enable future diversification into other
crops such as cotton and corn, and utilises novel synthetic and
small molecule chemistry. This methodology generates targeted
foliar and seed treatment products.
The R&D presentation sets out the following:
-- Industry - the case for crop enhancement and the current landscape
-- Business - structure and history (with an R&D focus)
-- Research and technology - platform design, screening process and the case for chemistry
-- Pipeline and products - pipeline stages, case studies and focus areas
-- Markets - activity overviews and case studies for key markets
-- Financial model - corporate value streams, indicative peak
annual sales opportunity for pipeline products and an explanation
of revenue streams included/excluded from external guidance
-- Market estimates (appendix) - methodology used to estimate
the indicative market sizes for R&D focus areas
Plant Impact believes that crop enhancement will grow to be a
significant sector within the chemical and biological farming
inputs market, playing a key role in sustainably improving food
security worldwide by using new technologies to help growers
improve global crop yields.
John Brubaker, CEO, said: "Growth and innovation in the crop
enhancement sector is accelerating more rapidly than ever before
and at Plant Impact we are proud to be at the forefront of R&D
advances in synthetic and small molecule chemistry. This is our
first R&D presentation; it establishes a new level of clarity
on our pipeline and it will be updated regularly. I would like to
thank our shareholders for their continued support."
