Why PGUS upward price correction is only starting
Post# of 597
It's obvious - PGUS is still significantly undervalued, and the CEO just keeps delivering!!
Updates in BLUE [/list]
- OTCQB 30-day 0.01 bid test period completed (Friday 9/9 was final trading day for bid test)
- OTCQB Application accepted by OTC Markets --> OTCQB designation imminent for PGUS!
- 10-Q due out this week, PGUS will make a good showing to OTCQB investors
- 1st Baja land tract on deck for sale at any time now... will also make a good showing to new investors who will be taking note of ProGreen's new OTCQB designation!
Supply vs Demand - PGUS is still greatly undervalued, the free float is shrinking, and the great majority of what is left is being bought and held tight.

(PRE 14C filed 8/31/16: http://www.otcmarkets.com/edgar/GetFilingPdf?...=11573994)[/color][/b]
Funding Growth & Operations...
- High quality PIPE financing to fund Baja and other projects - $5M equity line agreement: requires S-1 registration/effect... which requires high-quality OTCQB listing status... which requires $0.01 bid test (30 calendar days continuous - started Aug 12) among other OTC Markets current info updates (such as updated company profile & certification)
- Assets being monetized in Michigan
- First 300-acre land tract in Baja up for sale, several (6 or 7) suitors (offered at a discount to true value in favor of near-term turnover to recover investment + 50% of profit, rather than ~6-month delay for receiving certain certifications; e.g. organic farming)
Current Business & Valuation...
- PGUS is fully reporting (SEC) with audited financials
- ZERO toxic debt
- ProGreen has gained control of large tracts of land in Baja California
- Joint Venture agreements, Contel
- Strategic business entity, ProCon with 51% majority gives ProGreen control and balance sheet assets
- Baja business agreements provide for return of all capital invested by ProGreen prior to the 50-50 distribution of profits from sales and/or leasing
- Valuation based on real estate sector PE ratio = >> $0.31 per share (this is over 17x the current pps of 0.0174):
- conservative valuation (by INSTATRADER, dividing by 2) is 0.156 per share, which is still 9x the current pps of 0.0174
- considers only the ~1/3 of land estimated for agricultural leasing, of the land currently under ProGreen's control
- remaining ~2/3 of land being considered for residential/commercial development, which could yield much higher $/acre for sale or lease
- does not include the potential for additional land (where the CEO noted that there are "...several further opportunities for much more land in the area, both for agriculture use as well as for potential real estate developments."
- does not include the potential in the Ensenada area (where the CEO noted "I feel there are great possibilities for developments in this area directed to the US expat market."
- does not include any new projects (e.g. Michigan, Oklahoma construction or refurbishments with solar)
- does not include future potential for representation/distribution of SolTech patented solar products)
