State of the Industry

HOMELAND ENERGY SOLUTIONS LLC

As of February 5, 2013, the Renewable Fuels Association estimates that there are 211 ethanol production facilities in the United States with capacity to produce approximately 14.7 billion gallons of ethanol per year. According to RFA estimates, approximately 13% of the ethanol production capacity in the United States was not operating as of February 5, 2013. The largest ethanol producers include Archer Daniels Midland, Green Plains Renewable Energy, POET, and Valero Renewable Fuels, each of which are capable of producing significantly more ethanol than we produce.

Awwwww....too bad smallballs 12378, we closed "UP" today. Does ICM deduct from your salary when that happens? Don't feel too bad. You could always start a new bad rumor and lie about having read it as a "published fact". You seem to do that a lot!

...a GreenShift Corp. facility in Wisconsin...?

The above is the classic mantra of those that want to hide from the sad facts of the day; silence the truth. Another fact, I only know of one investor outside the inner circle that holds a larger position in GERS than myself. And, in the future (many months to years from now) when the dilution has ended (money changes hands from the court awarded damages) I will increase my position significantly; unfortunately at a small fraction of the cost it would take today.

Enough with all the lies, you insignificant little bug! You're only purpose here is to try to bring this company down. Too bad you're efforts are in vain! Are we now to believe the brokerage firms report who buys shares and how many to you? Your delusion of being the omnipotent GERS God is unbelievable!

You clearly cannot read and/or comprehend the English language to make that statement based on my post. What can one expect from the unwashed masses that congregate at the feet of The Pied Piper and grasp at the gown of the veiled GERS?

Major Ruling in Litigation over Greenshift’s Corn Oil Extraction Patents

ALPHARETTA, Ga.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

GreenShift Corporation (GERS) today announced the issuance of a significant ruling in its ongoing prosecution of ethanol producers and other entities for infringement of GreenShift’s patented corn oil extraction processes, including U.S. Patent Nos. 7,601,858, 8,008,516, 8,008,517, and 8,283,484.

GreenShift believes that the ruling dramatically strengthens its case for infringement against any person or entity recovering or facilitating the recovery of corn oil from the concentrated thin stillage by-product of ethanol producers.

All of the following defendants in GreenShift’s current litigation argued that GreenShift’s patents are limited to the recovery of at least 95% of the oil present in the concentrated thin stillage feed stream, and that they are consequently not infringing on GreenShift’s patents because they are recovering less than 95% of the oil present in their concentrated thin stillage feed streams: (1) Ace Ethanol; (2) Al-Corn Clean Fuel; (3) Blue Flint Ethanol; (4) Bushmills Ethanol; (5) Chippewa Valley Ethanol; (6) Heartland Corn Products; (7) Lincolnway Energy; (8) United Wisconsin Grain Producers; (9) Iroquois Bio-Energy Company; (10) Cardinal Ethanol; (11) ICM; (12) Big River Resources West Burlington; (13) Adkins Energy; (14) Big River Resources Galva; (15) Lincolnland Agri-Energy and (16) David Vander Griend.

The Court disagreed with the defendants’ arguments, and issued a Supplemental Claim Construction Order clarifying that the patents do not require recovery of any particular percentage of oil present in the syrup feed stream.

Significantly, the Court ruled that most of GreenShift’s patent claims cover mechanical processing to recover a product that is largely or mostly oil, and that they are not limited by the amount of oil that is not recovered from the concentrated thin stillage stream.

“We are very pleased with the Court’s ruling,” said David Winsness, GreenShift’s Chief Technology Officer and co-inventor of its patented corn oil extraction technologies. “We have looked at the so-called advanced oil, oil plus, COSS and such other attempts to work around our patents. We are highly confident, and even more so with this latest ruling, that all such attempts plainly infringe our patents.”

Winsness continued: “Ethanol managers, board members, owners, lenders and other stakeholders that have adopted ‘wait-and-see’ infringement strategies are encouraged to pay careful attention to these events. Licensed producers receive a significant competitive advantage that we have pledged to vigorously defend. We will continue to do so and now look forward to expanding our efforts in the coming months.”

A copy of the Court’s January 29, 2013 ruling is available online at www.greenshift.com.

GreenShift’s technical services staff are available at 888-ETHANOIL or sales@greenshift.com to respond to quotation requests and to answer any questions about GreenShift’s corn oil extraction and other technologies.

Feb 2013 news release on the GERS website doesn't sound like a "news blackout" to me. Another smallballs prediction bites the dust!

nobody123789 said...

If you knew any thing you would know that the release was approved by the attorneys. The black-out as you incorrectly call it is the control of external communications by the attorneys that are not required by SEC regulation or law -- that is directly from two of the principals. Get a new life and learn how to read in that life.

Nobody,
It's obvious you don't see your own self-importance. You like to use the terms, "pimp the cadets", "unwashed masses" to keep some imaginary buffer between you and your GERS subjects. Keep doing it because it entertains me.

nobody123789 said...

Not as much as me. Your fragile egos require your responses that give me great joy as I mark the time (many months to years) before anything of interest is going to develop with GERS, short of a major new license (which we may not find about) or a settlement that results in cash changing hands. Without the cadets, time would be so droll. Through your efforts my interests are peeked and ultimately that will result in making me a fortune here as you provide the entertainment to keep me going through all of these down years. Thank you all.

Look at the desperation of this moron. He works for infringers been bashing for years. Nobody is a paid basher.

I only "pimp" smallballs 12378 because it's so easy to do. He gets so involved with politically correct words that he misses the real meaning behind the sentences. He's like a small child responding to something he doesn't like by calling you a name in return. My favorite is "you don't comprehend the english language". That's right moron, I'm speaking into my computer right now and it is typing this for me!
Ha ha ha ha.....

Oh, by the way, we're UP and GREEN today! So much for your apocalyptic predictions!

nobody123789 said...

If you believe that a few trades, or even the behavior of a few days has changed the downward trend of the PPS that has been established for over a year -- who is the real moron?

My guess would still be you! Especially since you will probably be citing only a 3 hour time frame from yesterday when we went sub-penny.

I enjoy watching you guess which posts are mine, and which ones you attribute to me. To date, you've hit about 20%, better than your usual predictions, huh? It's also easier to just hit one button instead of typing my name each time and I'm not going to use my google account for this crap.

Actually, I haven't "hidden" at all, and your futile attempts to insult me only further prove what you are, note another poster's response above.
