One to watch..... maybe.

Nice background article in BusinessDesk today.  They're looking to grow $100m in revenue by 2027. Pretty simple business model - they divert more than 40% of waste collected from landfill.  Anything that is not dumped or dumped at a lower rate than landfill prices makes them $$$. They're keen on acquisitions and will fund that through equity.   My concern is that debt gearing is high.  I have dipped a toe in this one.

I drove past their Blenheim Road yard on Monday.
I lot of expensive vehicles sitting there idle.
Idle vehicles are not generating income.

Fair point but one of my concerns was more with humans, than machines.  It's a labour intensive model, and their staffing has already increased from 50 to 300 in  three years. Anyhow; some of the machines must be doing something some of the time.  They reckon that one of them pulls  1.5 tonnes of nails from construction waste timber DAILY!
