03 FINANCIAL SNAPSHOT
Factory Economics — 2028 First Conversion Year — Deliberate Startup Drag
| Year | Revenue | EBITDA | EBITDA Margin | Capacity Util. | Wtd ASP/CY |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2026 | $2.9M | ($1.8M) | -63% | 15% | $708 |
| 2027 | $14.4M | $4.5M | 31% | 65% | $782 |
| ★ 2028 | $20.6M | $9.2M | 44% | 75% | $876 |
| 2029 | $25.3M | $12.1M | 48% | 80% | $960 |
| 2030 | $29.9M | $15.9M | 53% | 80% | $1,079 |
| 2035 | $57.2M | $33.8M | 59% | 80% | $1,575 |
2026 — Launch Year
$2.9M
Commissioning — startup drag deliberate
2028 — Conversion ★
$20.6M
First clear conversion year
2028 EBITDA
$9.2M
44% margin — leverage emerging
2035 — Long Arc
$57.2M
59% margin · full earnings power
★ 2028 is the first clear conversion year. Negative Year 1 EBITDA is deliberate — not a flaw. Fixed-cost absorption first, then volume, mix, and margin quality.

04 THE MARKET PROBLEM
Island Construction Is Structurally Overpriced and Underperforming
Burden 01Delivered-Cost Friction
- Import timing, freight, inventory drag inflate cost
- Port handling and schedule volatility
- Island markets overpay for every heavy ton
- Structural burden — not cyclical
Response: Local production + logistics control
Burden 02Marine Durability Failure
- Salt, chloride-driven corrosion and cracking
- Premature repair cycles — reduced asset life
- Standard concrete underperforms in marine exposure
- Compounding lifecycle burden
Response: Marine-grade mixes + non-corrosive basalt
Burden 03Energy / Labor / Water
- High electricity costs amplify weak thermal performance
- Labor intensity + heat exposure compound cost
- Water constraint limits island builds
- Winner reduces total burden — not just first cost
Response: Panels, envelopes, energy optionality
Acrete is not entering a commodity market — it is entering a market where reliability and performance command a premium.

05 THE ACRETE SOLUTION
BioCene Graphene + Basalt + Process Discipline + Proof System
COMMERCIAL VALUE BRIDGE
↓
Delivered Cost
Localized production + logistics control → lower freight friction
▲
Durability
Marine-grade mixes + non-corrosive basalt → longer asset life
✓
Approval Friction
Proof packs + documentation + bounded warranty → financeable
◆
Project Value
Panels, pads, technical services → deeper margin stack
The moat is not a single admixture claim — it is the repeatable system that makes better concrete financeable.

06–07 WHY TCI + STRATEGIC PARTNER
Most Controllable First Market · North Caicos Contracting Ltd.
WHY TCI IS THE RIGHT FIRST MARKET
Visible Market
~$220M construction proxy — small enough to control, large enough to prove
Real Import Pain
Freight, scheduling, and inventory costs are acute and structural — not cyclical
Marine Exposure
Chloride, corrosion, and lifecycle repair create genuine premium value for better concrete
Investor Legibility
One geography, one plan, one story — underwriting stays narrow and focused
Market Proxy

Institutionalizing an existing local operator is materially lower risk than building from scratch in an unfamiliar island market.

10 RISK MANAGEMENT
Mitigation Is Built Into the System — Not Added as Afterthought
| Risk | Why It Matters | Mitigation Posture | Residual |
|---|---|---|---|
| Prototype Timing | Delays push payback Year 3→4 | Conservative scheduling; two prototypes; gated drawdown | Moderate |
| Revenue Ramp | Operating cash depends on early conversion | TCI-only focus; existing operator base; demand discipline | Moderate |
| QC / Proof System | Quality failure erodes commercial trust irreversibly | Stop-ship authority; test cadence; NCR closure; bounded warranties | Low–Mod |
| CapEx Control | Overruns reduce distributable cash | Reserve line; contingency; milestone-linked drawdown | Low–Mod |
| Hurricane / Supply | Island ops require built-in continuity | Inventory buffers; critical-spares matrix; continuity playbooks | Moderate |
Dual Sourcing
Inventory buffers sized to island interruption; critical-spares matrix
QC + Stop-Ship
Test cadence and NCR closure embedded in daily operations
Weather Protocols
Hurricane hardening, emergency restart checklists, insurance
PMO Cadence
Daily → weekly → monthly → quarterly: problems visible early
Governance: Board rights, reserved matters, weekly/monthly/quarterly cadence, institutional-grade documentation from day one.
