LAS VEGAS, NV / ACCESSWIRE / July 6, 2015 / Methes Energies International Ltd. (NASDAQ: MEIL), announced that it has closed on a $1.25M registered direct placement with a small group of institutional investors. Chardan Capital Markets, LLC, acted as the sole placement agent for the transaction.
Michel G. Laporte, Chairman & CEO of Methes said, "The additional capital will allow us to get into production of Epoxidized Soybean Oil and Natural Polyol, each of which can generate meaningful sales and substantial gross profit margins. Epoxidized Soybean Oil and Natural Polyol can be produced at our Sombra plant with our existing assets. We’ve been working, over the last few weeks, with potential clients and partners for both products so it was important that we have sufficient capital to meet their needs and be ready for what we believe is a great future. In light of all that is going on, I am 100% confident that we have made the right decision in raising funds at this time and are now heading in the right direction."
