BRN Discussion Ongoing

Hi All
As it is time for wild predictions about Brainchips imminent collapse this is mine:

China will invade Taiwan. The US will respond China will declare war on the US and it’s allies. Donald Trump will become President and do a deal that ends the war between China and the US on the basis China gets Taiwan, Japan and Australia.

Australia is overrun the ASX collapses. All ASX listed companies and their assets are forfeited to the CCP and we all are penniless and in detention camps.😂🤣😂🤡🤡🤡

Our PM just happens to be overseas in the USA. He claims asylum and is appointed economic adviser to the President.🤡🤡🤡

Laughable yes but as sensible as any other prediction I have read this morning.

1. Samsung with its own foundries will destroy Brainchip unless Brainchip IP is being used by Samsung through ARM or otherwise.

“Samsung is the second-biggest foundry globally by revenue, with a 17.3% market share compared to 52.9% for TSMC, according to TrendForce”

This means 82% of the worlds chips are not made by Samsung.

ARM supplies 90% of the chips used in mobile phones. This means Samsung has less than ten percent of the market for chips in mobile phones. There are others supplying chips within that 10% market space out competing Samsung.

Brainchip supplies IP which could be used in 82% of all chips made by foundries but if they are not being used by Samsung might as well shut up shop and go home.

Makes complete sense apparently.

2. Brainchip is partnered with dozens of companies but if revenue does not come from Renesas, VVDN and MegaChips this year it’s all over. The disclosed relationships with OnSemi,Infineon & Microchip companies with a combined capitalisation of 112 billion dollars means nothing. The partnership with Mercedes Benz isn’t worth a cracker. The Unigen AKIDA Cupcake is a write off. The EDGX and ANT61 space applications of no consequence. Tata Elxsi driving AKIDA technology use in medical and industrial applications forget it.
Valeo dead in the water does not rate a mention. ARM who has even heard of it.

The list of dismissals this wild prediction assumes even exceeds what Warnie used to do to an English Ashes team.

If you want to make unsupported idiotic statements on this investment forum yes you will be attacked.

You will be ridiculed and hounded.

You might even be a genuine shareholder unhappy and hurting as a result of the share price but the posters who come here are in the same boat.

There are in case you didn’t know not two classes of shares where your shares are 15.5 cents and mine are $10.00. Every share holder is holding BRNASX at 15.5 cents.

Allowing illogical unsupported rubbish does not improve investor sentiment nor does it encourage new investment to enquire more deeply potentially improving prospects of recovery over time.

There is a place for you to go and rant and it’s free and does not care about accuracy and is open 24/7. No one will fact check you there you can go for it till the cows come home.

This of course is not news to you. The fact you come here raises concerns when you by your own admission know you will be attacked.

Maybe you are like those who sit among the rival teams supporters and barrack for your team while hurling abuse at those around you. Then complain when a beer is emptied over your head.

Hi TFM
One of Bravo’s posts in the last week or so contained a Mercedes article wherein they referred to creating their own chips.

This as you state has also been previously confirmed by Mercedes Benz.

Logically if they are going to deploy AKIDA at scale the including of the AKIDA IP in their own semiconductor makes the most sense.

I think it was the Infineon fellow who spoke to the advantages of off loading the Ai processing to AKIDA.

Most certainly OnSemi confirmed the good sense of this approach in automotive.

The wild speculation that arises given OnSemi are partnered with Mercedes Benz is that the proving out AKIDA with OnSemi’s intelligent airbag deployment system was requested by Mercedes - HC readers look up meaning of ‘wild speculation’.

Given the recognition of Mercedes Benz of the 5 to 10 times better efficiency brought by AKIDA and the confirmation they are making their own chips and that they need to compensate for the energy excesses of Nvidia it is hard to imagine they are not finding themselves over an AKIDA barrel.

Not sure if this has been picked up before

Hi Pom

What a find. I take back everything I have thought about you based on your memes.😂🤣🤡😂

Pom has discovered the first confirm AKIDA 2.0 application. Just unbelievably generously shared:

Through our collaboration with BrainChip, we enable the combination of SiFive's RISC-V processor IP portfolio and BrainChip's 2nd generation Akida neuromorphic IP to deliver a power-efficient, high-performance solution for AI processing at the edge. Deeply embedded applications can benefit from the combination of compact SiFive Essential™ processors with BrainChip's efficient Akida-E processors; More complex applications such as object recognition, robotics and more can take advantage of SiFive X280 Intelligence™ AI Dataflow processors, which are tightly integrated with BrainChip's Akida-S or Akida-P neural processors. ” - Phil Dworsky, Global Head of Strategic Alliances at SiFive

The year we either sink or swim… if no revenue from Edgebox, MegaChips or Renesas I believe we’re fooked.
You are making your assumptions based on your knowledge only. Implementing a new technology is never a fast process. I remember one of my friend bought apple in 1992 and was saying at that time that the company will become very big. And then sell the same in 1998 after losing patience. Moral of story is if you cannot wait then better not to invest in new technologies. It may become insolvent but it has potential to give you returns of many hundred or thousand times of your investment
Irony of stock market is no one has a crystal ball but everyone wants to be rich very fast. That way either you become rich fast or you end up poorer than where you start
So to me anyone buying in these prices have a minimum risk and best reward possible situation.

The excitement for 780k in revenue in this forum is actually frightening. At least this 4c isn’t as bad as the prior one. Logically speaking this company is closer to bankruptcy than it is to be profitable. But hopes are high. Let’s see what 2024 brings.
Mate, Gen 2 is still only available to EAPs. Another 12 months needed to see the fruits bearing from Gen 2 release.. Then we can definitely judge on results from this current Calender Year

"Can you briefly explain why you think BrainChip will go bankrupt soon?"

At the very least it’s cost of capital is getting a lot more expensive whilst waiting for organic revenue growth.. 2024 a defining year.

Jesus Christ that was quite an outrage. Where should I even begin?

Regarding the excitement:
For example “Brilliant quarterly update” comes to my mind.

Fact Finder the bankruptcy and insolvency issue is noted and something that I learned today. I was in the wrong.

How you come up that I post something criminal though I have no idea.
A company with -14000% net profit margin in the penultimate 4C is *closer* I repeat closer! to insolvency than it is to being profitable. That’s not rocket science and in no way something against the law.
Even our CEO stated that this year makes or breaks the company. Do you want to file a lawsuit because our own CEO acknowledges the situation we’re in?

Altering what I’ve written changing the context and claiming that I said that the company is *close*, close! to bankruptcy, hence insolvency, that’s unlawful. That’s spreading misinformation at its finest.

Do I live closer to Egypt than you do? Yes I do. Do I live close to Egypt? No I don’t.

How you come up that we’re partnered with Samsung is something you have to explain to us.
That’s what I’ve written “The issue is. If Samsung is not using us through ARM or whoever else it might be we compete against a company with its own foundries.”

Tell me where do I claim our partnership with Samsung? Sounds made up to me.
Hell, I’ll even link it for your convenience.

If we’re not involved through a third party that uses Akida (Arm, Megachips or whoever else it might be), not partnership with Samsung, a third party, we’re gonna have some serious issues.
Stop claiming things I supposedly said but didn’t. And for god sake stop altering my sentences to make them fit your narrative and changing the context of what I’ve written. That really pissed me off!

Seeing all the cheerleaders mindlessly agreeing with everything you say and lashing out against anyone who thinks otherwise makes me question why I’m even here. This place has turned into an echo chamber that just allows one single point of view. I hope that’s a wake up call for some.

I always regarded you highly since you’ve been there since day one with great research but threatening me, altering my sentences and the context of what I’ve written and then suggesting me not to continue with this vein left an enormous dent.
You shouldn’t be apologising to these posters @DerAktienDude

They are part of a tribe, a community that only wants to hear positive hypotheses of Brainchip, and will defend their own to the hilt. Any contrarian opinions to the tribe are met with hostility..

That is the playing field here @DerAktienDude
It is by no means any slight on you.. Despite their best efforts, places like these end up being toxic and more harmful than good to those using it as a place to make an investment decision or base them on what they read here..

No matter what anyone tells you here, the reality is that most have suffered big paper losses investing in Brainchip.. And it’s easier to pick on someone that is a contrarian than it is to look in the mirror and say, “I made the mistake”.

Have a look at the Semiconductor sector is in a roaring bull market. The leaders are self evident. Nvidia, ARM, AMD, etc etc…

BRN is a complete laggard in the sector .. Doesn’t mean BRN won’t be late to the party, and gradually start getting a good market share. However it does mean it’s not currently a leader in the space and that moniker is really more of a marketing ploy for a R&D company in the far edge space that is trying to get its IP adopted and mainstream once overuse of data in the cloud becomes an issue.. Clearly that is not yet, as you’d be getting these big Semi conductors offering to buy BRN out already..

My two Bob worth.. Don’t get stressed.. Just take peoples comments with a grain of salt.. Save your psychological capital.

Pom’s find shows that an industrial machinery group known as SKF is a partner with BrainChip.
This makes me very happy :)
The ecosystem that Sean and the team set up is working, and it’s just getting started.


Where was that mentioned?
