When you think about it, you would think the firm name would provide the perfect caveat emptor defence.
You were right all along that BRN should have been flogging chips as a lead up to IP if they have volumes. No one even a giant like Parsons wants to jump straight into IP. Its risky and the time to produce from design could be 2 to 3 years via IP.You mean they're building prison cells out of plaque now?
What happens if these chips don't get sold? I think assuming that they will sell out is another false hope.I see what's unfolding as nothing but good news... we need money to make money. If we have companies wanting to buy our Chips, get money and make the Chips. We will start getting good returns late next year when they are sold. My understanding is that we already have guaranteed sales... So let's make plenty of Chips and moneyChip making is expensive, that's why I think we have been waiting for guaranteed sales before going in this direction... just my Opinion.
WOW!!FF
Scale for most chips is around 1 million units.
The AKD1500 numbers starting with 73,000 are divided over several customers from medical to defence. These customers do not get to claim the scale of 73,000 chips they only get to claim the scale of whatever their share of the 73,000 chips is so in all likelihood will be paying $50.00 a chip US.
The same applies for the predicted further 450,000 chips. The only way a customer will get to anything like your $20.00 is if they order the entire 450,000 in one hit and not spread over three years.
But again the 450,000 is predicted based upon a number of medical and defence customers so the price is still going to sit around the $50.00 US mark.
So the gross total sales value for 525,000 AKD1500 chips would be about $US24,675,000.
The reality is that these sales are just for AKD1500 chip based on current customer commitments.
Brainchip is not projecting here such things as Frontgrade Gaisler's GRAIN license fees or the US Airforce radar engagement involving RTX and ISL the AKIDA 2.0 and TENNS product lines including Pico, Bascom Hunter product sales, Drones from Arquimea and Neurobus etc;
Look at page 14 in the investor presentation.WOW!!
This is so bad...
Where in BRN's presentation does it state scale (assume you mean volume) is around 1 million units?
Where does it state 73,000 units will be divided over several customers?
And why did you add the 2027 production total of 73,000 units to the forecast sales of 450,000 units to come up with 525,000 chips?
Hi Tech,Hi Bravo,
If you are sending emails to Trevor and not receiving any professional responses, I would strongly suggest ringing HQ
in the US and formally complain, it's not good enough.
Investor Relations is a two-way street, some people on this forum and the other rag didn't mind bagging Tony here in
Perth, so I'd highlight the issue you're having directly to Sean.
Tech.
Good on you mate,Hi Tech,
To clarify it was via email. I received no reply, despite trying to communicate that there had been a mistake that needed to be corrected on the website on the Eye-Tracking Technology page. It said “while operating at million-watt power levels”, when it should have said “milli-watt”.
I mentioned it here in a post at the time that it occurred, prior to my emailing them.
Anyway, I didn't receive any response.
Maybe I was just unlucky. I don't know? Now I can see that the error has been corrected, but I do know for certain it hadn't been corrected for weeks, which frustrated me at the time.
Yep, but i cant see the world turning its back on neuromorphic health wearables or defense applications.Good on you mate,
Yes, we all make some mistakes, apart from Diobut our company has formed a reputation for making numerous grammical errors over the journey but the one you have mentioned is huge, especially for the uneducated... it's the 1% ers that really define the amateurs and the pros.
Today's announced raising was expected, $35 Million AUD isn't big by US standards in the tech industry, but I personally feel this is the defining moment in our growth, if we can't establish ourselves as a global player over the next 12-18 months we will have been surpassed by the Quantumyes it's coming BUT neuromorphic is first cab off the rank for humanity, in my opinion.
The next 12-18 months is also Sean's judgement day in my opinion, he is the one who convinced the BOD to focus on ARMS IP business model, his early wording of Peter's and Anil's AKD 1000 "breakthrough" really upset me and I reached out to both founders in support, wording and general comments were modified somewhat after that, could/should we have raised funds earlier and gone for the chip gateway first, possibly we should have.
Still think we will make the big breakthrough, just a combination of education and some poor early decisions have cost us all, including the company in achieving some earlier success, obviously my personal view.
Love our company
