BRN Discussion Ongoing

A reoccurring trend with mistakes in ASX announcements are a bad look.

Certainly shows that management are sloppy, with BOD’s having to sign off on such things before release.

Otherwise, IP deals & earnings are all that matters..

The rest is just noise.

I'm completely against voting out current management Xray1.

I think overall, they are doing a good job, although It's completely understandable for some to be disgruntled with the share price and a lack of "perceived" progress.

I think we have a Great team and I don't think you realise, what the aftermath of such an event will be.

It is not likely to instill any confidence in customers, who for all we know are going ahead, or ready to go ahead.

I believe it will cause a capitulation in the share price and there is no telling, how the resulting restructure, will affect current share shareholders.

It could very easily get ugly and does nothing, for the signing of IP deals.

Be careful what you wish for..
Yes, I totally agree. Voting them out without a clear plan of who is replacing them will most likely cause far more harm than good (and for the record, I'm not in favour of voting them out at all).

They just need a new Company Secretarial Service. I agree the mistakes are far too frequent but at the end of the day this is easily fixed.

Hi All
I know some like to rail against the corporate machine but it does seem that the majority of the anger is directed at Sean Hehir CEO.

The FACT of the matter is that he is clearly meeting the benchmarks given to him by the Board of establishing a global ecosystem of partners and sales opportunities supported by an experienced talented global sales and marketing team.

On the technology development side he has clearly accelerated the development timelines with the introduction of the 18 month development cycle for next generation product aligned with partner and customer requirements.

So from the Board’s perspective he is doing what he was employed to do and though some here and elsewhere are critical of the progress made on income growth the sales team has been booking deals such as EDGX/European Space Commission, VVDN EDGE Box, TATA Elxsi, Renesas, Unigen, MegaChips, Teksun, Socionext etc all of which are marketing AKIDA in the real world.

In short the bottom line is that looking from the outside it is difficult to see any basis for the Board to respond to the disgruntled and remove the CEO particularly when in the real world such action would likely lead to a significant payment for wrongful dismissal.

So what do these unhappy holders do. Threaten a second strike. But will this resolve their problem with the CEO.

Alas no because the pesky little CEO is not removed by a second strike it only affects the Directors.

Regardless in a spirit of butting their heads against the brick wall the second strike occurs and the same Directors are once again elected or even new Directors are elected they will still face a situation where the CEO is performant and his removal would be impossible.

To their dismay the disruption caused by the second strike and the 90 days at least of market uncertainty until the election of Directors takes place crushes the share price in an unprecedented fashion and their woes compound.

So what should these poor unhappy shareholders do?

1. They can write anonymous complaints on social media warning the public against investing because of the terrible CEO. This of course would not be a logical thing to do. It would be like advertising your car for sale and putting a sign on it saying don’t buy this car it’s a dog. No one would do this.

2. They could write to the company expressing their concerns privately in the hope that by pointing out their great expertise and qualifications in the commercialisation of world first technology the Company will take notice and implement their suggestions. Not an option for those who do not have this expertise of course.

3. They could decide to cut their losses and sell and move on to better performing investments.

4. They could as some investors claim to do put their shares in the bottom draw and forget about them on the basis that they have a belief that eventually the Company will prove to be the investment they hoped.

5. Cannot think of a fifth thing to do other than ignore this post and keep on doing what they are doing. Perhaps create some additional profiles on social media so they can appear to speak for a majority of shareholders. This of course would just further blunt market confidence so probably not a sensible option.

I'm afraid to jump up & down over today's announcement about partnering with Unigen until I get clarification.

The wording mentions "Unigen will provide end-to-end solutions for the Cupcake Edge AI Server, from engineering to mass production."
and
"Unigen, founded in 1991, is an established global leader in the design and manufacture of stuff"
and
Unigen markets its products to both enterprise and client OEMs worldwide focused on embedded, industrial, networking, server, telecommunications, imaging, automotive, and medical device industries. Unigen also offers best-in-class electronics manufacturing services (EMS), including new product introduction and volume production.

I've yet to work out what this "Cupcake" platform thing is, but the optimist in me translates the announcement to be Brainchip and Unigen are getting together to make and sell a versatile device called the Cupcake Edge AI Server. Being a versatile platform device, it can presumably be sold to others who will stick sensors on it and make all sorts of devices. If that's so, it gets things rolling big-time. So why hasn't the SP gone through the roof today??? Let me down gently if I'm wrong.
OK. Replies to this/my post have tempered my enthusiasm e.g." it will take time to earn revenue, only a revenue announcement will up the SP." Digging deeper I realised the "thing" was introduced by Unigen on SEPTEMBER 19, 2023 and yesterday's announcement is about a vastly improved one with Akida in it. It will be more energy-efficient etc and since Akidas are only ~$20, it could be that the vast majority of Cupcakes will be this version.
It would be useful to know Unigen's revenue from Cupcakes since September. Anyone?

It’s always easier for some people to blame a company. I made the experience, that some people are just waiting for issues like this. Just to feel more “confirmed” (is this correct?) about their past postings. Just my personal thoughts

Thank you FF, when you put it like that it would be stupid to vote for a second strike.
From what I see, the staff at BrainChip are working hard and have put a lot in place to ensure success.
I believe 2024 will be a great year for BRN shareholders.
We have waited a long time and had to endure the WANCAs and Manipulators. They are so afraid that BrainChip will be successful that they continue with their daily rants (very sad souls).
I bet they are dreading CES2024, which is only three weeks away!!!
Despite their efforts, there is nothing they can do to stop Akidamania.
To all of BrainChip’s genuine shareholders, stay strong and good luck. I hope to celebrate with many of you at the next AGM.

I wont share my opinion of the board or the CEO. However, I will copy below what FF has stated earlier. I think these are the most pertinent points put forward regarding the "S" word. Shareholders should think long and hard and heed these words of wisdom.

"Regardless in a spirit of butting their heads against the brick wall the second strike occurs and the same Directors are once again elected or even new Directors are elected they will still face a situation where the CEO is performant and his removal would be impossible.

To their dismay the disruption caused by the second strike and the 90 days at least of market uncertainty until the election of Directors takes place crushes the share price in an unprecedented fashion and their woes compound."

This won't be the biggest problem:
"To their dismay the disruption caused by the second strike and the 90 days at least of market uncertainty until the election of Directors takes place crushes the share price in an unprecedented fashion and their woes compound."

The bigger problem will be the 1-2 years it will take the new board members to come up to speed. (and nothing happens in between).
