  • The Company generated almost $40,000 in revenue in testing and reporting for customers interested in purchasing a forward osmosis ("FO") unit.

As part of this agreement, the Company paid a $135,620 licensing fee.
  • On May 30, 2023, the Company announced a partnership with Mead & Hunt. The Company will guide project support with its FO expertise, design know-how, and technical assets.

  • On May 31, 2023, the Company announced that it has signed a technical advisory engagement with CleanTech Lithium PLC to review and assess technologies capable of further increasing CleanTech Lithium's existing process efficiencies.

Management Commentary

Forward Water's CEO and President, C. Howie Honeyman comments "Fiscal year 2023 has been exciting for the Company. We have been successful in introducing the FO technology to potential customers across a number of different industries, resulting in orders for testing, a non-binding letter of intent with Mead & Hunt and a technical advisory engagement with Clean Tech Lithium PLC. In addition, the Company is in negotiations to deliver the FO pilot system on-site to support a customer's lithium extraction process in Chile". Mr Honeyman commented further, "We look forward to the year ahead as we continue to engage with our potential customers and expand our opportunities."
