Anybody having issues wih getting todays SP, .?
Error, bought the patents for a song not Sind!!!
Itsaduster During the AGM on Monday they touched on why they bought the patents for a Sind. Apparently the patents bought had a combined value of circa �60m , they bought these for the sum of circa �500k, only because the owners of these patents had no way to market for there intellectual rights, IQE are so far advanced, in this game with tried and tested wavers the companies that we sell too will not risk going to any other source for such a critical piece of technology, we now have the market literally to ourselves. It�s now time for us to take full advantage, we are getting geared up to meet forward demand as and when required. Dr Drew Nelson stated they�ve met many top manufacturers during the last few months and they remain very confident that they will be getting orders to supply the wavers to market. Keep hold of your shares as the shorts will need them.
All comers showing as � signs ?
Last nights TV Did anybody watch a documentry on the tv last night �Yesterday � was the channel, it was called �Sillicon Valley� a very knowledgeable program showing the progression on Silicon Valley and the companies that have spurred out from it, all the giants of the world, now IQE are the leading supplier and more importantly hold the Patented rights to loads of new products going forward, we should be rubbing our hands with glee on our future. My concern it our SP is way to low which could lead an aggressive takeover before we reap our rewards, yesterday�s program touched on the APP called whatsapp and how an investment company put up 60 million to expand the early startup only to sell it to Facebooks Mark Zuckerberg for �16 Billion, makings it�s owner Jan Koum a billionaire,not a bad deal if I said so myself . It�s worth a look if you can find it somewhere.
The iPhone 10 was discussed and it was clear at this stage they are the only client using the wafer for facial recognition at this point but they did mention several other phone manufacturers with orders being placed, also for the new semi or fully otominious cars, apparently each vehicle will require 70/100 chips where phones only requires one so the opportunity here is massive!!!!!!
Cb1234 Yes, lack of news was discussed in some length, they were conscious of posting minor bits of information on a regular basis but taking onboard our concerns re lack of regular information flow they did agree to look at these concerns and publish more news, especially around attending meetings around the world with new and or repeat customers or product demand. What was interesting was the fact they�re looking into new product opportunities to key clients that offer them wafer photonic products that greatly reduces the size of of each unit, giving us and the end users a greater profit margin by as much as 20% per chip!!!!
Factory Tour of the new facility consisted of bus ride around the outside, due to ongoing construction works and inline with H&S compliance they couldn�t accept groups of five or more due to the availability of PPE � Personnel Protective Equipment, or hard hat, hi viz jacket and steel toe capped boots!!!! They did however state that we can arrange a tour giving a weeks notice, contact them should you wish to attend. On a positive note sitting through the AGM all seems very positive as noted in today�s RNS, our big concerns seems to be recruiting enough people to manage our expansion.
Cb1234 We have a factory tour this coming Monday , a two hour walk around the new facility after the share holders meeting , a Bus is being laid on from the village hotel in Cardiff, I�m going, anybody else going?

Graham�s It�s always been the same here for the last five years , SP climbs up nicely before release of half or full year results only to fall drastically after each RNS, despite promissing outlook the market always expects more, its a pity the board can�t publish I nice surprise that will send the SP north after a release of such news, a tip from me, I always sell before each result,it�s stood me good so far!!!!! Atvb
Congratulations to GKP for reaching 2p old money, keep it going and some here may get something back but a fear a while to go yet!,, ATVB
Masaimara Things are really moving in the right direction for now, let�s hope it continues north. ATVB
Nickel-I Thanks for your insight, it�s very pleasing to hear they could be getting a premium price over and above the market price, do you have any evidence of this ? As for GKP it�s being run by a bunch of robbers IMO, it�s well noted here but the price is rising at a good rate at the moment so I�m prepared to sit tight for now. ATVB
Nickel-investor I dipped my toes in today for the first time, will monitor and add accordingly, as the oil price so will this , GKP also going in the right direction but being run by a BOD full of crooks .
Proctalgia I have just come off the phone to Hargreaves and have been informed they will send my the invitation form by post approx five days before the AGM or by secure message, all depends on what you�ve set up with them, we can�t use the linked form as per your link if you hold your share with them!,,, Kind Regards
Proctalgia Many thanks for the link, I�m currently with Hargreaves Landsdown , is it them that need to register my intrest to attend , as your link asks for an investor code number ? Regards
