Graphene Mfg Gro Stock Price, News & Analysis

Graphene Manufacturing Group (TSXV: GMG) has approved a AU$900k investment for early works on a new 10 tonne per annum Gen 2.0 Graphene Manufacturing Technology plant with an estimated total capital cost of AU$2.3 million. The plant, to be built at GMG's Richlands facility in Queensland, Australia, will utilize improved plasma technology expected to produce up to 20 times more production per unit than previous technology.

The Gen 2.0 Plant is scheduled to be operational by end of June 2026, initially limited to 1 tonne per annum production until packaging systems are upgraded. Key features include self-powered operation from renewable sources, energy storage, and hydrogen-enriched natural gas tail gas power generation. The technology improvements are expected to deliver reduced capital costs, lower production costs, and enhanced graphene quality.

Graphene Manufacturing Group (GMGMF) has launched G-Lubricant.com, a website for direct sales of its innovative graphene liquid concentrate for engine performance enhancement. The G® Lubricant, which contains a graphene-to-oil ratio of 1:10,000, has demonstrated significant performance improvements in internal combustion engines. Testing conducted over four years and verified by The University of Queensland showed fuel efficiency increases of up to 8.4% in diesel engines. Recent tests on a Mercedes Vito van revealed even more impressive results, with 13% fuel savings and 27% reduction in NOx emissions at 2500 rpm and 100 km/hr. The product is available in various pack sizes, including 500ml and 8x50ml options, and GMG is currently in discussions with potential global distributors and original equipment manufacturers.

Graphene Manufacturing Group (TSXV: GMG) has provided an update on its 'at-the-market' (ATM) equity program for the quarter ending March 31, 2025. During this period, the company issued 866,500 Ordinary Shares on the TSX Venture Exchange at an average price of C$0.7965 per share.

The ATM Program, which was launched on June 13, 2024, allows GMG to issue and sell up to C$20,000,000 of its ordinary shares. The quarterly issuance generated gross proceeds of C$690,196.80, with commissions of C$20,705.90 paid to Cantor Fitzgerald Canada , resulting in net proceeds of C$669,490.90 for the company.

Graphene Manufacturing Group (TSXV: GMG) has announced successful completion of energy savings case studies in partnership with C&W Services Singapore and ACMES for a Singapore bank using their Thermal-XR technology.

The studies demonstrated significant energy savings ranging from 10% to 20% on average, with one specific case showing approximately 33% energy reduction in daily consumption after coating application compared to pre-washing conditions.

Following these positive results, the Singapore bank is now considering expanding the application of Thermal-XR Enhance across additional branches.

Graphene Manufacturing Group (GMGMF) has announced significant progress in developing its Graphene Aluminium-Ion Battery technology. The company has signed a service contract with the Battery Innovation Center (BIC) of Indiana to support the next development phase, avoiding an estimated AU$10 million in pilot plant costs.

The company reached a 1000 mAh battery cell capacity milestone in February 2024 and is currently optimizing the pouch cell electrochemistry. The battery technology remains at Battery Technology Readiness Level 4, with plans to progress to levels 7 and 8 through BIC collaboration.

The G+AI Battery development includes weekly optimization sprints focusing on various components: graphene cathode, aluminum foil anode, electrolyte, and separator. Over 250 scientific experiments and nearly 1000 individual pouch cells have been produced since 2023. The company has received interest from global companies across various sectors, including Rio Tinto, for potential applications.

Graphene Manufacturing Group (GMGMF) has announced breakthrough results for its G® Lubricant, a graphene-based additive for diesel and gasoline engines. Testing conducted over four years and verified by The University of Queensland shows the product can increase fuel efficiency by up to 8.4% in diesel engines.

The G® Lubricant uses a minimal graphene concentration of approximately 1:10,000 when mixed with engine oil, making it safe for all internal combustion engines. GMG plans to begin direct marketing to fleet owners starting in Australia from April 2025, with global expansion to follow.

Based on global diesel fuel sales of US$1.4 trillion annually, GMG estimates a potential market for G® Lubricant of US$1.2 billion per year, assuming pricing at 10% of realized fuel savings. The company is currently preparing packaging and marketing materials for commercial launch.

Graphene Manufacturing Group (GMGMF) has announced progress in the commercialization of THERMAL-XR®, their graphene-based coating for heat sinks in electronics. Third-party verified modeling shows that THERMAL-XR® coating can reduce heat sink size by up to 39% while maintaining equivalent thermal performance.

The coating demonstrates a 23% reduction in maximum temperature reached (62°C vs 80°C) compared to uncoated heat sinks of equal size. With projected global PCB production reaching 530 million square meters by 2030, and 5.2 billion units requiring heat sinks, the potential market for THERMAL-XR® could reach 26.5 million liters annually by 2030, assuming 0.1% market penetration.

GMG's THERMAL-XR® has been awarded 'Product of the Year' at the AIRAH 2024 Awards in Melbourne, Australia. The awards ceremony, which took place on November 21st, 2024, celebrates outstanding achievements in Australia's HVAC&R building services industry.
