As of tomorrow (3 September), Parkway’s name changes to to Parkway Corporate Limited. Parkway is also converting to a public company limited by shares.
This change has obviously been in the works for some time, but was officially voted on at the AGM back in July.
A lot of PWN investors have seen this as a potential inflection point for the company - however, there is probably no real basis for such thinking.
Loyal investors also love Parkway's Managing Director, Bahay Ozcakmak. In a statement released to the ASX about the abovementioned changes, he is quoted as follows:
“The completion of the change in company type announced today, to a public company limited by shares, enables the recently renamed Parkway Corporate Limited to advance a range of strategic interests, without the constraints of the legacy company name or corporate structure. We remain fully focused on advancing our stated dual objectives of building an industrial water treatment business through Parkway Process Solutions, whilst concurrently advancing the
further development and commercialisation of our portfolio of next-generation water treatment technologies. By adopting this parallel approach, our objective is to build an operating capability and revenue base, whilst simultaneously developing a platform from which we can deliver increasingly sophisticated industrial-scale water treatment solutions. We continue to make strong progress towards achieving our stated objectives and look forward to sharing further updates (including in an upcoming corporate update), shortly.”
Bahay always instills confidence in the company.
As outlined in my previous straw, cashburn and a lack of revenue is company's main problem. There has been some scuttlebutt about the potential announcement of a contract that would see the company earn some revenue, but as always with scuttlebutt, that may be some time away.
PWN is definitely not the faint-hearted. It is a highly risky stock that will one day pay off. Due to the cashburn, I am watching it carefully over the next 6-12 months. Something could happen. Who knows.
