My first thought, when I read that Tony left, was that it saves the company money.
My second thought was ... I know this ... I lived it in the past ... when I worked for companies that "let people go" just to sell the company shortly after. Company buyers do not want the headcount and all the responsibilities connected to it, but only the product and its most important development staff.
For 5 USD or more, I would be fine with it. If the buyer is NVIDIA, I would then buy loads of their stock right away.

"I truly believe that BrainChip can easily reach a valuation of $30 per share in the long term – and that’s not just wishful thinking, it’s based on solid fundamentals and a unique technological position."
Neuromorphic architecture is the future
BrainChip is the global leader in neuromorphic AI chips. Its Akida processor enables edge computing with ultra-low power, real-time learning, and no cloud dependency – a game-changing alternative to traditional von Neumann architectures (like those used by Nvidia or AMD).
→ In a world that’s rapidly adopting billions of edge sensors (IoT, defense, healthcare, automotive), autonomous edge AI isn't optional – it’s inevitable.
Huge long-term revenue potential
According to projections from Fintel.io, BrainChip is expected to generate around $469 million in revenue by 2025. With a conservative price-to-sales (P/S) ratio of 15 (typical for high-growth IP-driven tech), this suggests a valuation of ~$7 billion.
→ Divided by ~2.4 billion shares, that’s about $2.90 per share – without accounting for further growth.
But with a projected 40% CAGR in Edge AI markets through 2032, and the possibility of Akida becoming a standard in autonomous systems, a P/S multiple of 30+ is entirely reasonable → making $30 per share a realistic long-term outcome.
3.
Strategic partnerships are already in placeBrainChip is working with Airbus Defense & Space, ARM, Socionext, and others. These aren’t just “news headlines” – they reflect real industry validation from top-tier players.
4.
Strong IP moat & unique technologyAkida is not just another AI accelerator – it’s a fundamentally different processing paradigm, inspired by the human brain (Spiking Neural Networks).
→ This kind of technological shift only happens every few decades. Early investors in Nvidia (2003) or Tesla (2012) know how this plays out. Visionäres Potenzial (denken Sie an 2030+)
If BrainChip gains traction across automotive, defense, medical, consumer, and industrial AI, a $50–100 billion market cap is not out of reach.
→ With ~2.4 billion shares outstanding, that translates to $20–$40 per share. If buybacks or acquisitions occur, $
30 is well within reason.
If BrainChip reaches €30 per share, the company would be worth approximately:
€72 billion
or $77.8 billion USD
---
Context / Comparison:As of 2025:
NVIDIA: over $2 trillion USD
AMD: around $300–400 billion USD
Palantir: approximately $80–100 billion USD
At €30 per share, BrainChip would be valued in the range of global tech giants – a realistic target if Akida becomes a foundational technology in sectors like automotive, defense, heal
thcare, and industrial AI.
Of course this is my opinion not investment advice.
Kind regards from Germany

This is more and more a US business. The listing in the US is the final step. Having IR at head office preparing investor presentation and supporting the potential relisting in partnership with the CFO would be the plan.
Since we’re already writing fantasy scenarios… why not make it 10 US dollars?Could be redundant in aust and going forward positioned in US?

Arm says new Zena Compute Subsystem technology to help power the transition to AI-defined vehicles.
Semiconductor technology specialist Arm is launching a new central processing unit (CPU) platform it says will cut engineering demand for automakers 20% and trim vehicle-development time 12 months as the industry moves past the software-defined-vehicle stage and toward artificial-intelligence-defined vehicle architectures.
The AI-defined vehicle, a concept that appeared to surface for the first time late last year, is the next leap eyed in automotive electronics. Like SDV platforms, AI-defined vehicles will feature centralized, high-powered computers stocked with updatable software, but in this case the software will be AI-driven and allow for more advanced automated-driving functionality and sophisticated interaction between the vehicle and its occupants.
The Arm Zena Compute Subsystems platform is designed specifically for automotive applications. It consists primarily of 16 Arm CPUs, a safety island and a security enclave that can be paired with any GPUs (graphics processing units) and
NPUs (neural processing units), and other components of an OEM’s choosing, to produce a complete system on a chip (SoC) that is both scalable and flexible. The identical platform can be deployed for advanced automated-driving functions, as well as for in-vehicle infotainment and vehicle system controls.
“The AI-defined vehicle will be the future of Arm,” Dipti Vachani, senior vice president and general manager of Automotive, says during a media backgrounder tied to the launch of the Zena CSS for testing. “(And) the Arm platform will be necessary to deploy the AI-defined vehicle.”
News of cutbacks to development programs for next-generation battery-electric-vehicle platforms – once earmarked to lead the transition to SDVs and beyond – and fits and starts in OEM efforts to develop more sophisticated software-driven electronics architectures, have led to some uncertainty as to when the transition to smart vehicles may occur. But Vachani believes Arm has made the right bet with the Zena CSS technology that is geared to driving such a transformation.
“The movement to AI in the car is absolutely happening,” she says, noting every automaker is looking to move up ADAS capability toward more fully autonomous vehicles and integrate AI into the user experience inside the cabin. “So, AI workloads are becoming table stakes.
“No one is debating whether or not AI is going into the car,” she adds. “That’s going to happen. It’s not if, but when. It’s more a conversation of, ‘What’s it going to look like? What’s my brand stand for and how do I want my consumers to experience AI in my car?’”
That dilemma is where Zena CSS can shine, Vachani says, because the platform allows for OEMs to customize their SoCs any way they want and simply add multiple boards to meet their processing power demands, leaving more time for their engineers to focus on differentiating the technology according to their brand objectives.
OEMs are demanding three things when it comes to development of these new AI-defined vehicle architectures, the Arm executive says: They want the flexibility to innovate and the ability to scale the technology across vehicle platforms and their various brands, as well as shorter development times in order to speed new products to market.
“It’s amazing to me that we’re (now) launching more new technology into the car than we see in other industries,” Vachani says, noting automakers long have been criticized for lagging behind in releasing new software features.
Zena CSS comes pre-validated and integrated with other SoC technology, the key to allowing automakers to potentially cut a year off development time. It is compatible with SOAFEE (Scalable Open Architecture for Embedded Edge) standards, so it will work seamlessly with software and systems that meet that protocol, Arm says, giving automakers access to a smorgasbord of software and services offered by third-party developers that can be incorporated more easily into their future vehicles.
Zena “is huge for the SOAFEE ecosystem,” Vachani says.
Arm says Zena CSS has already been delivered to select partners for testing and it expects to ship demonstration units more broadly in September. The company declines to speculate when it might see production applications.
Suraj Gajendra, vice president of automotive products and software solutions, sums up Arm’s play this way: “The movement to AI is absolutely happening. We are ahead of the game here. We have sort of predicted where this is going, and there needs (to be) some foundations that have to be set on how technology will evolve to support these use cases in the future. And that’s what Arm has been part of.”Arm’s semiconductor IP is licensed by a number of chipmakers and has been a factor in the automotive market for more than 20 years. The U.K.-based company says its technology is deployed by 94% of the world’s automakers and the top 15 automotive processor suppliers. Its revenues have nearly tripled in the past five years, Vachani says.

Can’t happen soon enough!
“Soon enough” Oh sure… a US listing will obviously fix everything.
Still, no sustainable business model, barely any visible revenue, no real proof-of-value in the market? No worries! Just slap the logo on NASDAQ, and boom…trust, investors, billions. Because… you know, Uuuu sss aaa!!!
I mean, who needs actual paying customers when you’ve got a potential listing on PowerPoint, right?
But seriously…do you even realize what that would mean for your shares if we just jumped into the US market like that?
Would you be happy holding 5 shares after a massive reverse split just to see us at 4 bucks… only to crash to 1 dollar once Wall Street tears us apart?
Think about it before wishing for this fantasy.
Unless, of course, you’re shorting – then it makes perfect sense.

If ARM was an arm, BRN would be its biceps💪!
You can’t sprint before you’ve learned to walk.
Securing a license and generating some meaningful revenue would be a good place to start.
As far as redomiciling goes, if our BoD can’t wrap their heads around making effective ASX announcements to help support and grow the share price, what chance is there that Australian retail shareholders will back a move abroad?
Let's face it - if the company is struggling for traction in Australia due to poor communication and execution, it risks completely flopping in the US market for the exact same reasons.
A redomicile to the US would be a catastrophic disaster for Australian shareholders given where BRN is at the moment.
Your shares Beeb could quite possibly become effectively worthless overnight.

They just came up again in a general google search I was doing and was some 3 open vacancies, still from Feb though.
Interestingly when I clicked on "about company" link it showed another entity as well... "Complexio" as per my screen shot.
Wonder if these guys are also playing with Akida in the background and / or with Autonomous Teaming?
Appear to have connections through marine / maritime industries.

Forward-looking Information
This press release includes “forward-looking statements” that reflect our current expectations and views of future events. These forward-looking statements are made under the “safe harbor” provisions of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and include but are not limited to, statements regarding our financial outlook, future guidance, product development, business strategy and plans, and market trends, opportunities and positioning. These statements are based on current expectations, assumptions, estimates, forecasts, projections and limited information available at the time they are made. Words such as “expect,” “anticipate,” “should,” “believe,” “hope,” “target,” “project,” “goals,” “estimate,” “potential,” “predict,” “may,” “will,” “might,” “could,” “intend,” “shall,” “outlook,” “plan,” “aim,” and variations of these terms or the negative of these terms and similar expressions are intended to identify these forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words. Forward-looking statements are subject to a broad variety of risks and uncertainties, both known and unknown. Any inaccuracy in our assumptions and estimates could affect the realization of the expectations or forecasts in these forward-looking statements. For example, our business could be impacted by geopolitical conditions such as the ongoing political and trade tensions with China; the market for our products may develop or recover more slowly than expected or than it has in the past; our operating results may fluctuate more than expected; there may be significant fluctuations in our results of operations and cash flows related to our revenue recognition or otherwise; a network or data security incident that allows unauthorized access to our network or data or our customers’ data could result in a system disruption, loss of data or damage our reputation; we could experience interruptions or performance problems associated with our technology, including a service outage; global economic conditions could deteriorate; and our expected results and planned expansions and operations may not proceed as planned if funding we expect to receive is delayed or withheld for any reason. It is not possible for us to predict all risks, nor can we assess the impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements we may make. Moreover, we operate in a competitive and rapidly changing market, and new risks may emerge from time to time. These statements are based on our historical performance and on our current plans, estimates and projections in light of information currently available to us, and therefore you should not place undue reliance on them.
Although we believe that the expectations reflected in our statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee that the future results, levels of activity, performance or events and circumstances described in the forward-looking statements will be achieved or occur. Moreover, neither we, nor any other person, assumes responsibility for the accuracy and completeness of these statements. Except to the extent required by federal securities laws, we undertake no obligation to update any information or any forward-looking statements as a result of new information, subsequent events or any other circumstances after the date hereof, or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. Investors are urged to review in detail the risks and uncertainties discussed in our 2024 Annual Report on Form 20-F, current reports on Form 6-K and other reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
