This is not a normal stock presentation. It's the result of deep research that started with a simple observation and has stayed with me, me and my AI support Mr. Prompt.
PLEASE READ THE WHOLE TEXT! At the bottom I explain the graphics, it is the most detailed presentation I have ever madebecause it is a topic that is fascinating and extremely important!
We have put aside the usual evaluation standards and set out in search of the "Next Big Thing" from Scandinavia. When you live in Denmark, you look here first :)
What we found: $DSRT (+2,37 %) Desert Control - A bet on the impossible
The origin: A reportage and a radical question
Let's not kid ourselves: Most climate protection investments feel like a drop in the ocean. But some time ago, I was sitting in front of the television and saw a report on progressive desertification.
The images were terrifying - dry earth, abandoned farms, starving people. And then came the standard line: "It will take decades to reverse this process, if it is possible at all."
That was the moment when I asked myself:
Isn't there anyone who can do it faster?
Isn't there a radical, technological solution?
I discussed this with Mr. Prompt and we dug deep. We dug deep.
And we found it. A company from Norway (in Scandinavia, of course, where else)that sounds so groundbreaking that we wondered why no one had ever heard of it.
The concept was so revolutionary that we had to put aside our usual Excel spreadsheets and safety margins for a moment to understand the potential.
The vision: focusing on the planet
$DSRT (+2,37 %) Desert Control has set itself a goal that is nothing less than world-changing:
They want to stop and reverse desertification. The core problem is that sand cannot store water. It seeps away immediately and nutrients are washed out.
Desert Control's solution is Liquid Natural Clay (LNC) - liquid natural clay.
Why the concept would be so revolutionary for planet Earth:
It normally takes 7 to 15 years in nature to turn dead sand back into fertile soil. Desert Control achieves this with LNC in 7 hours.
- The effect: The liquid clay is sprayed over the sand like water or fed into the irrigation system. It wraps itself around the grains of sand like a net and transforms the soil into a kind of sponge.
- The benefit: The sand can suddenly store water and nutrients. Water and fertilizer consumption are reduced by up to 50 %. In view of the global water shortage and dwindling agricultural land, this is a technology that could literally save the world.
The reality: where they are and how far they have come
Desert Control has long since left the lab and entered the harsh reality of commercial scaling:
- The status quo (2025/2026): The technology is proven to work. The problem is no longer whetherbut the how to make it suitable for mass use.
- Field tests in the real world: They have massively ramped up their activities in the USA. In Fresno, California (HR Farms), and in Arizona, huge pilot projects are underway with over 2,000 almond trees and date palms. Here, tests are no longer carried out under a magnifying glass, but in the real field under the harsh Californian sun to prove that water is saved and the yield of the trees remains stable or increases.
The new scale: Story & Growth > Dividend
Forget everything we normally say about P/E ratios, dividend yields or conservative cash flows.
The rules are different with Desert Control. This is not an investment for the security-conscious. This is venture capital on the public equity market.
This is about exclusively about the story and the potential growth.
- The brutal truth: The company is currently a cash-burning machine. Sales are tiny, losses are high. If we were to apply our standard formulas, the stock would be an immediate "sell".
- The PAYS Challenge: Desert Control often uses a "pay-as-you-save" contract model in the US. This means that the customer only pays once the water savings have been objectively measured and verified. This delays sales enormously, but is necessary to gain the trust of conservative farmers.
The bet: finance the house or total loss
This is the most important point of this dossier. You have to be aware of what you are getting yourself into:
Total loss scenario (50% probability?): Scaling fails, the machines are too expensive, there is no customer acceptance, or the money runs out before the PAYS contracts bear fruit. The result: the share goes to zero. A complete loss of the invested capital.
Unicorn scenario (50% probability?): The field tests in California are a resounding success. The water savings are so massive that governments in the Middle East and the USA subsidize the process. Desert Control scales globally. A micro-cap becomes a billion-dollar corporation.
We're not talking about 10 % or 20 % returns per year. We are talking about 1,000 % or even 10,000 % price gains if the unicorn scenario occurs.
This is the kind of bet that, if it works out, can finance an entire house. But you have to be prepared to write off all the money you put in.
The hard facts (as of March 18, 2026)
Nevertheless, let's take a quick look at the data to understand the dimensions.
- Current exchange rate: approx. 1.60 NOK (approx. 0.14 EUR / 0.15 USD)
- Market capitalization: approx. NOK 187 million (a micro-cap!)
Shareholder structure & holdings
Who believes in the project and who is financing it? The top 20 shareholders together hold just over 60% of the outstanding shares.
- Major investors (institutional investors & LLCs): At the forefront are investment vehicles and banks such as Woods End Interests LLC (approx. 16%), Citibank (approx. 16%), Nordnet (14%) and J.P. Morgan (approx. 10%). These are not small players, they have an interest in long-term success.
- Governments: There are no direct state holdings in the form of in the form of share packages among the top shareholders. But: The company benefits massively from government support. They regularly receive subsidies, such as the Norwegian "SkatteFUNN" grant for research and development.
Financial reach & future prospects
- The cash burn: They carried out a capital increase (NOK 75 million) at the end of 2025. This ensures survival and liquidity until the second half of 2026.
- The turning point: After that, it is imperative that significant sales flow, otherwise the next dilution of shareholders through another capital measure or going bankrupt is imminent. The next 12-18 months are absolutely crucial.
- Areas of application: Agriculture in arid regions, greening deserts (afforestation), golf courses and large landscape parks.
The chart technique (bottom formation after the fall)
The chart is a classic "fallen angel" scenario from the venture capital sector.
- The 52-week high was a whopping NOK 8.40. Today we are at NOK 1.60. That is a loss of over 80 % from the high.
- Over the last few months, the share price has been oscillating between NOK 1.43 and NOK 1.80 in an extreme bottoming phase. Volatility is high, but the massive downward pressure of the last two years seems to have stopped for the time being, as the last capital increase has been completed.
Special entry zones (The punter list)
We repeat: according to our quality criteria, this share is a clear buy-exclusion.
However, if you see this company as an absolute lottery ticket satellite position (venture capital), then the current zone is between NOK 1.45 and NOK 1.65 is the fundamental catch basin. Historically, it has hardly gone any lower because the book value and the remaining cash reserves support the price here. If this support falls, the dream is over.
The AOK conclusion: The ultimate bet on the future
The AOK conclusion: Why we had to go along with this bet
This is the kind of investment dossier we rarely write. It is the moment when we deliberately set aside our own ironclad AOK quality rules. Why?
Because we were so deeply convinced by Desert Control's vision that we couldn't help ourselves. The chance to make a tiny contribution to saving the planet while having the potential for a life-changing return on investment was too tempting.
Full transparency: we are already on board
Yes, we have to say it openly and fairly at this point: We are already invested.
We don't actually buy such shares. We avoid cash burners and highly speculative "story stocks" like the plague. But in this case, the ground-breaking idea - turning deserts green in hours - overcame our skepticism. We have opened a small, calculated position as a "lottery ticket" in our portfolio.
It is venture capital that we have written off completely in case the total loss scenario materializes. But if not... well, then it's the kind of bet we'll be talking about in ten years' time.
Now it's your turn:
We've dug deep, analyzed the technology and weighed the enormous risks against the astronomical rewards. Now we're eager to hear what you think!
- Did you have $DSRT (+2,37 %)
Desert Control on your radar yet? - Is LNC technology a "game changer" for you or just a beautiful dream?
- Do you believe that the "unicorn" scenario (global success) can happen, or do you see a total loss as inevitable?
- Would this be a "satellite position" for your own portfolio, or is the risk far too high for you?

Summary explanation of the charts:
We've dug deep and stumbled upon a technology that can make the world's deserts green again. Desert Control is an award-winning concept, but a financial disaster (for now). The R&D phase was expensive, and scaling up is even more expensive. If the almond and date crop cycles in California this year prove that the PAYS contracts are bringing in the money, sales could explode in the future. Until then, you're betting purely on the vision. There is currently no "safe" substitute for this very specific business model on the stock market, as it is an absolute niche.
This is not an investment. It's a bet. A bet with the potential to finance the house or lose everything. And that's what makes it so fascinating.
Here are the graphics I have created explained in detail:
Graphic 1: How LNC works in the ground (comparison)
In this diagram you can see the problem on the left-hand side ('NORMAL DESERT SAND'): The water (blue drops) seeps away unused because the large, uncoated grains of sand cannot hold it. The plant has shallow roots and a low nutrient content.
On the right ('FRUITABLE SAND WITH LNC') you can see the result after application. LNC envelops every grain of sand and transforms the soil into a sponge-like structure. The water is held as if in a reservoir and the plant can form deep roots. The graph shows: Water retention: > 50 % increase and Nutrient availability: doubled.
Visual evidence: Before/after on a farm
To understand the dimensions, we created a before/after comparison for a 100-hectare farm.
Figure 2: Before and after comparison: 100 hectare farm
On the left side ('BEFORE') you can see the result without LNC. A dry almond orchard under extreme heat. The lack of water is dramatic and the yield is low.
On the right ('AFTER') you can see the transformation. LNC ensures that the water is used efficiently.
The savings: On this area of 100 hectares, water consumption drops from ≈ 1.2 million m³ per year to just ≈ 600,000 m³ per year. That is a saving of ≈ 50 %. In addition, a increase in yield: +20 % is forecast. These are not small figures. They are revolutionary.
