The management explained that the main reasons for going public was to be able to raise funds to invest in opportunities that would solidify its leadership position in the market and to explore options of mergers and acquisitions with other major players within the industry. The firm also announced its new strategy to recruit high caliber employees and use its shares as a form of compensation.RainMaker had previously received $2.5 million from the Peterborough Region Angel Network. A privately driven initiative that brings together individual investors from to combine their wealth of knowledge and experience to collaborate and invest in early stage growth companies in the green technology and life-science sector. RAKR used the funds to expand its operations.Recent DevelopmentsIn line with its strategy to expand operations and hire high caliber staff, Rainmaker recently hired a new CFO, Michael Dohaney.Dohaney has previous experience as CFO of Ghana Capital Partners based in Hong Kong and Manulife Financial in Barbados. He also worked as a Tax Senior Manager at KPMG, LLP Canada.

“The initial sales are exactly according to the plan and are positioned in locations with excellent climatic conditions to highlight the extraordinary benefits of our technology. These sales fuel the launch of our manufacturing facility in Rotterdam and they are just the beginning.”Source

Financial PerformanceDue to its aggressive growth strategy, Rain Maker has recorded retained losses across 2013 to 2016. However, assets are well above liabilities due to the nature of its business operations and it is expected that the investments in these assets and high demand for its products would begin to bring in revenues.Between 2014 and 2016, the company was able to reduce its losses and pay off debts without diluting its ownership. This demonstrates its commitment to creating shareholder value as declared during one of its press releases. Although this may have influenced its liquidity ratio which is at a low 0.12 causing some concern. However, it is acceptable since it is not a cash intensive business as revealed from the cash flow statements.It is also worth noting that the financial reports in circulation are not fully reliable as they did not come from the company, thus making accuracy of the estimates made by analysts is debatable. However, the results for Rain Maker’s 2017 operations are expected to be published, due to its new public status.Chief Strategy Officer, Michael Skinner recently declared:

“Rainmaker is a key example of how a cleantech startup has the potential to grow and create worldwide solutions when given support, its collaboration between PRAN (angel investors)and local startups make Peterborough a well-positioned region for determined entrepreneurs to thrive."

SourceConclusionRainmaker has moved its operations to a market where demand is high and supply is low. It is expected this will impact its results positively. Its market value could remain on the rise as the market becomes more aware of its potential.We will be updating our subscribers as soon as we know more.
