So that massive jump was purely driven by a secret meeting with select few shareholders?
I don't know whether to be happy with the update FF has given us, or to be very annoyed that only select few people were invited to get an update - as opposed to realeasing via email to all shareholders šŸ˜”
This situation raises another concern imo as it specifically relates to the 8th Nov 2023 ASX SHARE PRICE QUERY and the 9th Nov 2023 "RESPONSE TO ASX QUERY" by the Co:

"8 November 2023 Reference: 84269 Ms Kim Clark Head of Corporate Services, Queensland Boardroom Pty Limited Suite 2227, Level 22, 127 Creek Street Brisbane QLD 4000 By email only. Dear Ms Clark Brainchip Holdings Ltd (ā€˜BRNā€™): Price - Query ASX refers to the following: A. The change in the price of BRNā€™s securities from a low of $0.165 to $0.23 since close of trade 5 trading days ago. B. The change in the price of BRNā€™s securities from $0.18 to $0.23 since the start of the day. C. The significant increase in the volume of BRNā€™s securities traded since the start of the day. Request for information In light of this, ASX asks BRN to respond separately to each of the following questions and requests for information: 1. Is BRN aware of any information concerning it that has not been announced to the market which, if known by some in the market, could explain the recent trading in its securities?"

FYI .......... It is concerning to me, that on the 9th Nov 2023 the company sent a "Response to ASX Query" stating:

Brainchip Holdings Limited (ā€˜BRNā€™): Price - Query Brainchip Holdings Limited (BRN or Company) refers to your letter of 08 November 2023 and provides the following responses: 1. Is BRN aware of any information concerning it that has not been announced to the market which, if known by some in the market, could explain the recent trading in its securities? No

IMO .... Maybe the Co in its response back to the ASX on the 9th Nov 2023 should have raised and disclosed the issue of the Company having had held meetings with various selected ( by invitation only ) s/holders at those meetings rather than a meeting for all shareholders.

What I find most interesting is how transparent you and the other manipulators are but I should not be surprised given the proven depths of human depravity.

Personal attacks, threats of spills, pompous claims of self importance and financial sophistication.

Uninformed claims that a spill will remove a CEO.

The ignorance and misinformation rains down like a river.

Go and read the Rules a spill has no implications for the Chairman or the CEO particularly when the spill is led by disgruntled retail shareholders who manage to cobble together 25% on two occasions. The existing Board simply nominates again and are elected because they donā€™t even have to get 50% of the possible vote at the spill meeting.

The only oneā€™s who win from a spill are the shorts, the manipulators and the trolls.

Retail shareholders will always loose.

Sharing publicly available information has not and will not ever be a cause for concern however ignorance and sinister intent will always be a trigger to be careful as the purveyor is someone not to be trusted.

Those who might be influenced by these flawed individuals should ask why has not one of these individuals challenged or unpicked the information that is contained in my earlier post?

Why have they not identified the untruths?

Why have they not identified and laid bare the price sensitive insider information that they seek to rage against?

Can they not find it?

Why have they not considered that the CEO and Board of a publicly listed company randomly sampling the views of a group of shareholders to understand their concerns beyond the simplicity of the day to day share price might be a good thing?

It was clear that the shareholders who attended in Sydney cut across age, social circumstance and were not selected based on the size of their wallet or shareholding.

Or dare I say what institution they worked at or what broker they break bread with on the weekend.

They gave all the outward appearance of a random selection and not an elite group of so called sophisticated or institutional investors.

Does this failure to only speak with the so called elites offend their collective sense of entitlement?

Do they fear their position as controllers of wealth and hence power may be undermined?

Real people with real concerns such as wives, husbands, children, retirement plans, fixed incomes, mortgages, relatives and friends who had invested on their advice in other words real people who only had one thing in common they have invested their hard earned in Brainchip and had concerns like the genuine shareholders who post here.

While the attacks have been directed at me these warriors of all that is disgusting about the ASX and social media are at the same time denigrating all the other real shareholders who took up this first in their lifetime opportunity to have a voice and be heard by those in charge of the company they have invested in.

Who among this group here would if offered the same opportunity to be heard not accept with a virtuous heart?

It is clear what the individuals who have played the man instead of the ball are about and it is not ensuring that an investment in Brainchip pays off for all shareholders.

My opinion only DYOR though Blind Freddie says their intent is obvious.

Hi FF

Itā€™s much appreciated that you have shared information discussed from your recall on this apparently informal meeting that you and a select few retail investors were invited to attend with Sean and Co in Sydney on 6/11/23

The only things I would like to put on record in this forum on this apparent informal meeting is I would have loved to have had the opportunity to attend this meeting to meet and ask questions to Sean and listen carefully to how Sean etc responded. Im sure not the only one.
I also trust that the select few who attended have disclosed all key information discussed at the informal meeting (no advantage over other retail investors) and has been been shared to all on this forum (not limited to) and it isn't just selective recall only from attendees. I suggest this may work towards calming the tension with others from recent posts. Im sure you understand where I am coming from amd donā€™t take it to heart.

Also my recall from previous posts yesterday on this informal meeting is it did last 2hrs approx so I consider that is a solid timeframe to discuss and raise questions with Sean and co.
I would also suggest this timeframe was considerably longer than share holders had at the recent AGM in Sydney as a large group of retail shareholders. My recall is the BRN board members ran out of time and took a number of questions on notice and would get back to them. Iā€™m unsure if that ever happened but happy to be corrected by Tony Dawe as he apparently reads posts in this forum.

Hope all have a good weekend whenever it starts. Mine started this morning. lol

Cheers
The Pope

Once again Wilzy. No substance added. At least we didnā€™t get a gif.

He actually makes a good point. Definitely not confused at all.

I think the disclosure of the special invite meeting and the secrecy of it all smells a little. Itā€™s a bit like Sean and Tony have made the special meetings with the movers and shakers of TSEx to help calm the pitch fork wielding tribe. Might have back fired due to the tribe feeling a little betrayed and left of centre right at this point.

I hold what I believe to be a considerable sum of shares and belong to a group of friends, family and associates who together hold a very large number of shares. Our collective sentiment is definitely ā€œconcernedā€ with the current state of commercialisation but not ā€œworriedā€. The need to brief a small number of individuals on this commercialisation strategy adds to the ā€œ concernā€. Schnitty has a right to also express an opinion as do I. Your right of reply doesnā€™t necessarily mean you are ā€œrightā€.

Iā€™m guessing your reply also reflects your ā€œconcernā€ on the current state of play.
Just sounds like people are feeling left out.

Yup :rolleyes:

Well we should take the same stance as our management regarding our severely depleted SPā€¦We arenā€™t going to discuss the SP and the SP will do what itā€™s gonna doā€¦and now you our groupie mates keep the herd of mushrooms in the dark and tell them to stop manipulating!!
Their idiots so theyā€™ll understand.
Well my turn at the agm will be related also to loss of valueā€¦.no board spill for me but no wages for management UNTIL profits are showing. After all,us mushrooms donā€™t get paid until company is good and profitableā€¦??do we???
Then letā€™s see how management feel in our boat šŸ›¶. Vlad

We did get a update via and . Some choose to have short memories. I'm not worried not getting an invite as nothing new disclosed but an attempt by the company to reach and continue to communicate to shareholders. Damned if they do and damned if they don't.

RA8M1 Microcontrollers​

Renesas' RA8M1 MCUs feature ArmĀ® CortexĀ®-M85 480 MHz core with Helium technology, up to 2 MB Flash, and 1 MB SRAM​

Image of Renesas' RA8M1 ArmĀ® CortexĀ®-M85
Renesas' RA8 family with the RA8M1 group integrates the Arm Cortex-M85 core with excellent peripherals, memory, and leading-edge security with TrustZoneĀ®. The RA8M1 devices include several low-power features to reduce the overall system power while still providing high performance. These devices combine with advanced process technology to bring together the performance, quality, and reliability that Renesas has always been known for.
The RA8M1 MCU group expands the RA family SAM into the high-performance market. These MCUs lie in the crossover space between MCUs and MPUs and are suited for customer applications that require the higher performance of an MPU but the lower power consumption and ease of use of the MCU. The RA8M1 MCUs, with the Cortex-M85 core running at 480 MHz, integrated with large Flash/SRAM memory (2 MB/1 MB) and a rich set of peripherals, are optimally defined to support AI, motor control, PLC, metering, and other broad-based industrial and IoT applications. Multiple external interfaces, connectivity peripherals, and packages from 100 pins to 224 pins are included to serve the needs of a broad range of high-performance applications.
The Arm Cortex-M85 core, with the Arm v8.1m architecture and a 7-stage superscalar pipeline, is the highest-performance Cortex-M core and introduces Helium, the M-Profile Vector Extension (MVE) that significantly accelerates signal processing and machine learning capabilities, enabling an unprecedented four times the acceleration in ML tasks and three times the acceleration in DSP tasks versus the older Cortex-M7 core. Helium is a single instruction, multiple data (SIMD) extension to the instruction set, which can provide a performance uplift by processing more data per instruction. This is similar to Neon on the Arm Cortex-A processor cores but is more optimized for resource-constrained and lower power microcontrollers and is designed to Cortex-M principles: real-time, area efficient, and integrated with TrustZone. It adds 150 scalar and vector instructions and allows the processing of 128-bit registers. Used optimally, this can eliminate the need for an additional DSP core in the system. Helium brings intelligent processing to the edge, enabling local processing (less traffic to the cloud and lower costs) and lower overall system power, allowing small, low-power embedded systems to address compute needs in applications as diverse as audio processing, drone navigation and control, AR/VR applications, sensor hubs, and image processing.
Features
  • 480 MHz Arm Cortex-M85 core with Helium (MVE for AI/ML)
  • Up to 2 MB Flash memory and 1 MB SRAM incl. TCM; 384 KB user SRAM and 128 KB TCM are ECC protected
  • 32 KB I/D caches (ECC protected), 12 KB data Flash
  • Advanced security with TrustZone, RSIP cryptographic engine, immutable storage, and tamper protection
  • Scalable from 100-pin to 224-pin packages
  • Octal SPI with decryption-on-the-fly, Ethernet MAC with DMA, CAN-FD, and USB HS/FS (host and device) connectivity options
  • CEU camera i/f, 12-bit ADCs, 12-bit DACs, high-speed analog comparators, and 3x sample and hold circuits

  • SCI (UART, simple SPI, simple I2C), SPI, I2C, I3C
  • Arm Cortex-M85 high-performance core featuring Armv8.1m architecture with Helium for DSP/ML acceleration
  • Octal SPI with secure interface to external memory for storage of code and data
  • Advanced security for highly secure IoT
  • Open Arm Ecosystem, easy-to-use flexible software package, and comprehensive solutions to enable fast development
  • S/H enable motor control applications
Applications
  • Industrial automation
  • IoT gateways/hubs

I donā€™t quite understand what there is to be gained by sharing this information on this forum FF? I am absolutely staggered you would put this down into words on a public forum..

Why would you basically spell out to the world that thereā€™s a group of investors who get private privileges with the company to partake in meetings that are not made open to all shareholders?

For some, it brings into question the sudden price and volume movement of a week ago and makes questionable your motives of suddenly reappearing here. You would NOT want to have been buying on market under such circumstances.

However, fret not.
I can say with unquestionable fact. All the people that attended such meetings have no measurable advantage over other shareholders. It often works the other way because you feel connected and are more likely to fall for the A-type speak of ambitious executives, over the plain and simple facts that stare us in the face.. Not yet commercially successful!

What it highlights most of all his how unprofessional it makes management of the company come across and continued poor form in the way they conduct business with select shareholders..

As always, this is just my opinion



Let me put it to others, ..................... How many here are happy that a "select group" was able to converse with our CEO without your knowledge that he was even coming to Australia, and with the lack of communication/share-price halving since the AGM at which SH was simply a stage prop in the background?

In the Q3 Podcast Sean said, (14min) ........ "Looking forward to catching up with as many shareholders as possible"
:unsure: ......... Yeah ............... Ok ............What do you mean by that Sean?


For me, the first i knew was when a poster here ( sorry i forget who ) mentioned that they had possibly seen our CEO talking with other/s outside of the venue of the last AGM.
So, i confirmed this by emailing TD, ...................
....................... His reply- {quote} - Yes, Sean and i are currently in Sydney presenting to investors.
So, not only do we have a "Hush Hush" trip to Australia, we have a "Select Group Mid-year General Meeting"

Then, i asked Tony,
[quote} ............... What vetting process was undertaken by you and Sean to determine what excisting shareholders were contacted in Australia and subsequently given the oppurtunity to discuss all aspects of the company, and why there was no general invitation announced to all shareholders?
........................... His reply- {quote} - Sean and I attend meetings that "I set up" with analyst, professional and retail investors, based on my relationship with each. LESSON= We had all better buy Tony a Xmas card this year.

QUESTION; WOULD WE HAVE EVER KNOWN ABOUT THIS TRIP DOWN-UNDER IF IT HADN'T BEEN FOR THE "SIGHTING"?

QUESTION; SHOULD THE LAST AGMs "BETTER COMMUNICATION WITH SHAREHOLDERS STATEMENT" BE BETTER PHRASED AS
"BETTER COMMUNICATION WITH SELECTED SHAREHOLDERS"?

I think this is very poor form/judgement/action on behalf of Sean & Tony.
I also think we all have the right to attend any public forum where our CEO is giving answers to questions asked by shareholders.
We get a podcast from the CEO every three months, 15mins of rehersed Q&A audio, ...................... then this (n)

I know that i would have liked the oppurtunity to attend !

[We Do Future Technology] Become a Semiconductor Expert with SK hynix ā€“ AI Semiconductors​

May 9, 2023

(Snippet)....

Ultimately, AI semiconductors need to combine the functions of a processor and memory while providing more enhanced qualities than the Von Neumann architecture. SAPEON Korea, an AI startup jointly founded by SK hynix, recently developed an AI semiconductor for data centers named after the company. The SAPEON AI processor offers a deep learning computation speed which is 1.5 times faster than that of conventional GPUs and uses 80% less power. In the future, SAPEON will be expanded to other areas like autonomous cars and mobile devices. SK hynixā€™s commitment to developing technologies to support AI is further highlighted by its establishment of the SK ICT Alliance alongside SK Telecom and SK Square.

The alliance invests and develops in diverse ICT areas such as semiconductors and AI to secure global competitiveness. Furthermore, SK hynix is also developing a next-generation CIM3 with neuromorphic semiconductor4 devices



SK hynix Commercializes Worldā€™s Fastest Mobile DRAM LPDDR5T​

November 13, 2023

News Highlights​

  • Starts supplying 16 GB mobile DRAM package to global smartphone makers
  • LPDDR5T to be adopted in the latest smartphones along with MediaTek Dimensity 9300 mobile processor
  • ā€œCompany to continue developing high-performance DRAM products to bring ā€˜On-Device AIā€™ technology to smartphonesā€

Seoul, November 13, 2023​

SK hynix Inc. (or ā€œthe companyā€, www.skhynix.com) announced today that it has started supplying its customers with 16 gigabyte (GB) packages of Low Power Double Data Rate 5 Turbo (LPDDR5T)1, the fastest mobile DRAM available today that can transfer 9.6 gigabits per second (Gbps).

1LPDDR: Low power DRAM for mobile devices, including smartphones and tablets, which aims to minimize power consumption and features low voltage operation. The latest specifications are for the 7th generation, succeeding the series that end with 1, 2, 3, 4, 4X, 5 and 5X. LPDDR5T is a newly developed version by SK hynix, and an upgraded product of the 7th generation (5X), prior to the development of the 8th generation LPDDR6.

Since the successful development of its LPDDR5T in January, SK hynix has been preparing to commercialize the product by conducting performance verification with global mobile application processor (AP)2 manufacturers.

2Mobile AP: A semiconductor chip that serves as the ā€˜brainā€™ of mobile devices, such as smartphones or tablets. It is also the central processing unit in a system-on-chip (SoC) format that contains a complete set of products and systems, including computation, graphics, digital signal processing, etc., in a single chip.
SK-hynix_LPDDR5T_01.jpg

SK hynix explained that LPDDR5T is the optimal memory to maximize the performance of smartphones, with the highest speed ever achieved. The company also emphasized that it would continue to expand the application range of this product and lead the generation shift in the mobile DRAM sector.

The LPDDR5T 16 GB package operates in the ultra-low voltage range of 1.01 to 1.12V set by the Joint Electron Device Engineering Council (JEDEC), and can process 77 GB of data per second, which is equivalent to transferring 15 full high-definition (FHD) movies in one second.

The company recently started shipping its product to a global smartphone manufacturer, Vivo, which also announced that its latest smartphones, X100 and X100 Pro, will be equipped with SK hynixā€™s up-to-date memory packages.

These devices will also be packed with MediaTekā€™s newest flagship mobile AP ā€˜Dimensity 9300ā€™. In August, SK hynix confirmed that it has completed the performance verification for application with MediaTekā€™s next-generation mobile APs.

ā€œSmartphones are becoming essential devices for implementing On-Device AI3 technology as the AI era kicks into full swing,ā€ said Myoungsoo Park, Vice President and Head of DRAM Marketing at SK hynix. ā€œThere is a growing demand for high-performing, high-capacity mobile DRAMs in the market.ā€

3On-Device AI: Artificial intelligence technology that implements AI capabilities on the device itself, instead of going through computation in a physically separated server. AI functions can become more responsive and provide more customized AI services as smart devices are capable of collecting and computing information on its own.

ā€œWe will continue to lead the premium DRAM market based on our technological leadership in AI memories, while staying in tune with market demands,ā€ Park added

17 HOURS AGO
Sapeon Chief Executive Officer Ryu Soojung introduces the X330 to the press in Seoul (Courtesy of Yonhap)
Sapeon Chief Executive Officer Ryu Soojung introduces the X330 to the press in Seoul (Courtesy of Yonhap)
Sapeon Inc., a semiconductor startup backed by South Koreaā€™s second-largest conglomerate SK Group, on Thursday unveiled a new artificial intelligence chip for data centers to join the global race in the sector and challenge the worldā€™s chip design leader Nvidia Corp.

Sapeon introduced the X330 neural processing unit (NPU) for inference, which quadruples the computing performance of its existing model X220 and doubles the power efficiency.

Compared with competitorsā€™ inference chips released this year, the X330 provides double the computing performance and its power efficiency is more than 1.3 times better, the startup headquartered in Santa Clara, California, said.

An internal analysis showed the X330ā€™s power efficiency was better than graphics processing units with the same specifications by 1.3 to 1.9 times, said Sapeon Chief Technology Officer Michael Shebanow.

Sapeon, spun off from South Koreaā€™s top mobile carrier SK Telecom Co. in April 2022, designs AI semiconductors for data centers. The market is currently dominated by Nvidia of the US.

MASS PRODUCTION IN H1 2024 THROUGH TSMCā€™S 7 NM PROCESS

Sapeon plans to mass-produce the X330 in the first half of 2024 through the 7-nanometer process of the global foundry leader Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC) after testing its prototype with customers and verifying its reliability.

The X330 supporting large language models is capable of running an LLM based on a transformer, a source technology of conversational AI ChatGPT developed by Microsoft Corp.-backed OpenAI based on generative AI technology.

The latest AI chip for inference, which is set to implement AI services based on learning data, has a wider application range than its previous models, making it easy to be used in various industries, Sapeon said.

The startup plans to provide open neural network exchange-based software stacks along with the X330 when it is installed on servers to optimize performance while offering AI inference platforms and software development kits.

ā€œWe started a new journey today with the X330, the best AI processor for inference,ā€ said Sapeon Chief Executive Officer Ryu Soojung at the event to unveil the new chip. ā€œWe will develop Sapeon into a company that shares a convenient life with AI, as well as the era of ā€˜AI Everywhereā€™ and ā€˜AI Big Bang.'ā€

In addition to the X330, Sapeon aims to introduce chip designs for self-driving automobiles and AI NPUs for high-performance edge devices, which provide an entry point into enterprise or service provider core networks.

Sapeon also plans to expand its cooperation with SK Telecom to actively target new service markets while protecting customers from security threats with systems using AI chips to defend against voice phishing, smishing and spamming.

How many here are happy that a "select group" was able to converse with our CEO without your knowledge that he was even coming to Australia, and with the lack of communication/share-price halving since the AGM at which SH was simply a stage prop in the background?

In the Q3 Podcast Sean said, (14min) ........ "Looking forward to catching up with as many shareholders as possible"
:unsure: ......... Yeah ............... Ok ............What do you mean by that Sean?


For me, the first i knew was when a poster here ( sorry i forget who ) mentioned that they had possibly seen our CEO talking with other/s outside of the venue of the last AGM.
So, i confirmed this by emailing TD, ...................
....................... His reply- {quote} - Yes, Sean and i are currently in Sydney presenting to investors.
So, not only do we have a "Hush Hush" trip to Australia, we have a "Select Group Mid-year General Meeting"

Then, i asked Tony,
[quote} ............... What vetting process was undertaken by you and Sean to determine what excisting shareholders were contacted in Australia and subsequently given the oppurtunity to discuss all aspects of the company, and why there was no general invitation announced to all shareholders?
........................... His reply- {quote} - Sean and I attend meetings that "I set up" with analyst, professional and retail investors, based on my relationship with each. LESSON= We had all better buy Tony a Xmas card this year.

QUESTION; WOULD WE HAVE EVER KNOWN ABOUT THIS TRIP DOWN-UNDER IF IT HADN'T BEEN FOR THE "SIGHTING"?

QUESTION; SHOULD THE LAST AGMs "BETTER COMMUNICATION WITH SHAREHOLDERS STATEMENT" BE BETTER PHRASED AS
"BETTER COMMUNICATION WITH SELECTED SHAREHOLDERS"?

I think this is very poor form/judgement/action on behalf of Sean & Tony.
I also think we all have the right to attend any public forum where our CEO is giving answers to questions asked by shareholders.
We get a podcast from the CEO every three months, 15mins of rehersed Q&A audio, ...................... then this (n)

I know that i would have liked the oppurtunity to attend !
Top post, but to bother to attend these top secret meetings would be a waste of time it appearsā€¦.because as weā€™ve been told this morning there was No new information given lol šŸ˜‚
Beats me just why the management would all fly around Australia just to say NOTHING???
