ATHENS, GA / ACCESSWIRE / May 31, 2023 / ByoPlanet, a wholly owned subsidiary of Plandai Biotechnology, Inc. (the “Company,”) (OTC PINK:PLPL), a leading innovator in revolutionary cleaning technology, announced the completion of a third-party valuation firm’s estimates of ByoPlanet’s business and assets based on ByoPlanet’s unaudited financial statements and internal projections. The third-party firm reviewed and analyzed ByoPlanet’s 2020-2022 unaudited financial results, market position, and future growth prospects.

The valuation, completed in Q1, 2023, highlights several key estimations that demonstrate the robustness of ByoPlanet’s operations, ByoPlanet’s enterprise value, and potential for long-term success. The valuation was conducted using ByoPlanet’s unaudited financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2020 - 2022, and ByoPlanet’s internal five-year financial projections based upon an analysis of the financial metrics from 10 leading publicly traded companies in the same sector as ByoPlanet. A key component to the assessment was ByoPlanet’s intellectual property, which the Company believes is both groundbreaking and consistently outperforms competitors.

Some of the key highlights from the valuation include:

Strong Past Financial Performance: The report is derived from ByoPlanet’s historical unaudited financial performance from 2020 to 2022, and accounts for consistent revenue generation, profit margins, and strong cash flow. The financial solvency of the company is further supported by a minimal debt position and strong shareholders’ equity.

Market Position: The valuation recognizes ByoPlanet as a developing market leader in the disinfectant and cleaning technology sector. ByoPlanet’s intellectual property, innovative products/services, customer-centric approach, and strategic market positioning have contributed to an assessment of ByoPlanet’s current and growing market acceptance and competitive advantage.

Promising Growth Prospects: The report also emphasizes the significant growth potential focusing on ByoPlanet’s intellectual property. It recognizes the company’s expansion plans, successful product/service diversification, and possible strategic acquisitions as key drivers for future growth. The report highlights the ability of ByoPlanet to capitalize on emerging market trends and unlock new revenue streams.

Strong Intellectual Property Portfolio: The valuation report acknowledges ByoPlanet’s extensive intellectual property portfolio as valuable. It recognizes the company’s commitment to innovation, research and development, and intellectual property protection, reinforcing ByoPlanet’s ability to maintain a competitive edge in the market now and in the future.

The third-party firm employed several techniques and methodologies to determine the estimate range. These included a Weighted Average Cost of Capital analysis, Guideline Public Company Methods for Size Adjustment Analysis, Growth Adjustment Analysis, and Profitability Adjustment Analysis. Additionally, historical unaudited income statements and balance sheets were taken into account.

Utilizing the Discounted Cash Flow Method (DCF), a base case scenario was estimated at $270M. Using the market approach, a base case scenario resulted in a high value of $267M and a low-value estimate of $222M. The base case scenario of the point estimate of enterprise value was determined to be approximately $250M.

Commenting on the third-party report, Rick O’Shea, Founder of ByoPlanet and now CEO of Plandai, expressed his satisfaction with the results. “We’re delighted with the results. It helps support our belief in the value of our IP and the unrivaled performance of our cleaning technology. We believe that our revolutionary cleaning technology has disrupted the market, delivering unmatched results in various sectors, including animal health, hospitality, and food processing, with excellent prospects for growth. The Company’s dedication to sustainability and efficiency has garnered ByoPlanet a strong reputation and loyal customer base. We believe that merging ByoPlanet’s valuable assets into PLPL will help enhance the Company’s market cap and improve shareholder value.”

Benchmarking played a significant role in the third-party report. The third-party firm utilized the Guideline Public Company Method for benchmarking ByoPlanet against the Latest Twelve Months (LTM) data, One-Year Forward (FY1) projections, Two-Year Forward (FY2) projections, and Three-Year Forward (FY3) projections. ByoPlanet’s performance consistently demonstrated its potential growth.

Mr. O’Shea further commented: “The Company is nearing the end of its fiscal year on June 30th, after which our independent PCAOB audit firm will conduct a full audit including the valuation of ByoPlanet’s assets, which we anticipate will be consistent with the third-party firm’s calculations and estimates. We are committed to performing and meeting our goals and milestones and exceeding estimates, and we will update valuation disclosures to the market promptly and in a compliant fashion.”
