Richard Spinks on BBC News - 19th February 2015

Published on 24 Feb 2015
Richard Spinks of Active Energy Group (AEG) talks to BBC News about the situation in Ukraine. Spinks resides in Ukraine with his wife and two children and in 2014 were forced out of their home in Donetsk after it was raided and occupied by pro-Russian troops.




Nothing about AEG but further insight into the man at the top.

Spinks said he was appearing on proactive investors this week re Pelleting. I would imagine that is post rns. Not sure about full trading update. I'd said I think the Pelleting may be bigger than the other sections, he agreed

[scyther] 24/2/2015 16:13

what are long termers here expecting to see contained in this weeks update?

is a full trading update expected and news on the new pelleting tech as has been mentioned on other boards?

trying to get a feel of expectation from guys who know the company inside out and spoken to the ceo

Many thanks for that useful article, cottoner.

Having listened to some of the videoed sessions with Richard Spinks and the Metis, one quality came through above all others, summed up in the word "trust".

Grand Chief Ronald Derrickson sought out Richard in the first place because of what he had done for communities in western Ukraine, and he felt he could trust him. And trust was plainly something that the Grand Chief did not lightly give: his own contributions at that meeting are full of his distrust especially for Canadian authorities. So well done Richard in winning and maintaining Metis trust.

Another point that came across is that projects with the Metis may well not be limited to forestry. The very name FNRDC specifies Natural Resources....a pretty broad term.

Lots to look forward to here.

Three Métis Settlements launch new groundbreaking joint venture



An article summarising last month's summit in Canada.

From the article

"Richard Spinks, President and CEO of the KAQUO FNRDC and CEO of Active Energy Group Plc’s Commercial division, is also a polished speaker and presenter with a flair for business and a track record of creating prosperity. Introduced as the Summit’s first keynote speaker, Iner Gauthier, Chairman of the Peavine Métis Settlement, referred to Spinks, as “a phenomenal gentleman” who has “worked wonders all over the world on our behalf, raising money and running our business, trying to get it off the ground.”

"Active Energy is involved in two main businesses, power generation (Biomass Wood Chip for BFE Power Generation) and collecting and shipping both hardwood chips and softwood that is shipped to Turkey to supply the MDF (Medium Density Fibreboard) industry.
“We are now the largest supplier,” added Spinks, who noted that none of the wood being used in any of the projects is useable saw wood, but instead wood chips and the leftovers after the good trees have been harvested. Active Energy, he said “doesn’t trade, we manufacture, we use our wood chips.”
Utilizing its own technology, the company also produces fuel from saw dust and logging waste. In 2013 Active Energy produced 67,000 tons of chips , a figure that rose to 280,000 tons a year later; 2015 is expected to see the company produce in excess of 700,000 tons."

This week folks. Buy in before it's too late, unless it's already too late!

[drmaccers] 23/2/2015 11:24

Looking forward to update. Hopefully full rns and not just proactive investor interview

[21trader] 23/2/2015 10:15

Too much action hidden on IDSX which really should not be allowed especially with 30 minute delay on trades I thought those days were long gone but still it goes on to benefit the mm's even more. 5.75p offer now

[21trader] 23/2/2015 10:04

Looks hot full offer online on a 0.5p spread 5.85p

[drmaccers] 23/2/2015 08:10

Pelleting news will be this week, I emailed richard Spinks. I also said it was hard for me to value it but it might be worth more than the forest asset, he said my thinking was correct!World leading tech that everyone wants. It's hugeMy top ups aren't showing yet

[cottoner] 20/2/2015 13:09

Ultimately the share price will depend upon the results and future prospects of AEG and the performance of its management and the more I hear and read about Richard Spinks the more confident I become.

[opaldouglas] 20/2/2015 13:07

No worries guys, everyone is welcome. Lets just try and keep all things on track about AEG (good & bad).

Trading is all part of investing, each to their own. Just be a shame to fill up the thread with non AEG info when we're had some really useful posts and discussions here recently.

thanks DrMaccers

nice to know my MNC work has had an impact

[21trader] 20/2/2015 12:58

opal

It's almost pathetic flops trades he is the weakest trader I've seen. He sells small lots the same time so the 2 lots of 5000 sales will be his. He will never
make any money in this game because he plays with small amounts and does not hold
to turn them into large amounts.

[opaldouglas] 20/2/2015 12:33

If thats the case they should have got in 12 months ago ;)

The thread seems fairly balanced at this point with some great contributions, lets hope it stays that way.

beware this is being pumped by the topinfo thread smalltime pump and dump brigade

As well as Pelleting news due next week, also about to come into play, from the last TU.

'It is important to note that the Group has renegotiated its financing costs from their current level of $5.00 per metric tonne of delivered product to $1.00 per metric tonne with effect from 1 March 2015.'

[deaconblue1] 19/2/2015 11:41

Watching Richard Spinks, AEG CEO on BBC News. Fascinating insight into the man, the situation in Ukraine and what he's been through in the past year. And yet he remains positive... extraordinary!

[nigelmoat] 17/2/2015 10:02

Fill yer boots-this will fly soon. Lots of good news in the pipeline imo.

[cottoner] 17/2/2015 09:52

wrt the above

Richard Spinks has said in a very recent BRR interview that there should be news by the end of February and there was a "very exciting product to talk about."

[opaldouglas] 16/2/2015 07:43

Sider King now docked in Slovenia, this is defiantly a first.

Loading or unloading?

Zeetruth on LSE - Just found this whilst looking for KQ things - our CEO Spinks started washing cars! How Humble and via Bill and Ben the Flower Pot Men look where we are now the guy is a legend! Starts from 13 minutes in.
