Outstanding Shares: 315,049,151.
Restricted: 132,537,188.
Unrestricted: 182,511,963.
Unrestricted shares typically indicate where the float is.
Held at DTC: 177,117,966
You could also subtract" "held at DTC" from outstanding shares, which gave you different kinds of float.
These shares are considered part of the outstanding shares, but because they are not available for everyday trading, they are not considered part of a company's public float.
Then, the public float is 137,931,185.
The float is calculated by taking a company's outstanding shares and subtracting any restricted stock.
You can see it here at the link below.

I think you are referring to the outstanding shares at 182.5 Million. The float is actually a bit lower.
“Can Float Be Higher Than Shares Outstanding?
No, float—short for floating stock or floating shares—can't be higher than shares outstanding. It's always a smaller figure because it only counts the number of shares available for investment and trading on financial exchanges. In contrast, shares outstanding include both tradeable shares on the open market and any restricted or closely-held/insider stock—essentially, all shares that a company has issued, So, float is always a portion of shares outstanding”

“Looking forward to seeing the Core Optics financials.” Me, too. 😊 It would also be nice to know how much growth they expect in the next year or two.
I think the float now is more like 182.5 million.
I think this is more accurate data and more up-to-date: https://www.otcmarkets.com/stock/CRTG/security.
Note the float has not been updated since 8/23/2023.
Looking forward to seeing the Core Optics financials:
" As due diligence and integration efforts continue, Core Optics’ revenue has grown as the Company meets the high demand from auto manufacturers and blue-chip companies for its products. The corporate headcount has also grown, predominantly in manufacturing and engineering, to meet the demand and work through its backlog."

We need an update on c-space! Have they completed the lens? What’s game plan for commercialization? Will CEO Kim put c-space on the back burner ? Do u feel that CEO Kim will give investors a call on the business plan & timeline? I surely hope that happens after the merger completion………
10Q should be out any day now maybe even today will be looking at recent developments, subsequent events , anything interesting like how much cash is left . It came out May 15th last year.
Looks like Minh Le has an interesting patent:

I wouldn’t get too concerned over the timeline. We are still 50 days out from the deadline for closing the merger. Most mergers take about three months to complete and we are just getting to the halfway mark.
Quick Shift, Gunny, Walrus, & Test
Do you think this deal is going to be extended? It’s getting close to the deadline. This will push share price lower. What’s the hold up? Could it be the share exchange?Core Optics?…..
Simply back to a more ordered supply/demand regimen. Whoever was selling millions of shares last week, isn't selling them this week. Be sure however that if they still have shares to dispose of and they want to get rid of them in the numbers we saw previously we could still see new all time lows.
Yes, the bids and asks on limit orders are viewable. Your limit order at .004 would only get filled if somebody sells at that price, or if the market price dropped to that point and stayed for a bit.
Question - If the PPS is .0075 and I put in a buy order for 125000 at .004 in anticipation of the PPS dropping during a dump is there a way for anyone but specifically Armistice to see my low buy order?
Up 50% this morning, anyone know why.

I wonder if Luminar Technologies or Tesla are doing business with Core Optics.
https://www.thetruthaboutcars.com/cars/news-blog/report-tesla-s-buying-lidar-sensors-after-all-44506831
I agree, but we really need to get the audited data to really know what we have.
If you've seen the Waymo, I've got to believe that other sensors can be built into a car that could do what those on the Waymo do without being major features on the cars, which are Jaguar's. I suspect that all the whirling gadgets on the cars are more to gain attention then necessary functionally, though they probably have a function. I'm only saying the same function could be achieved with tinier devices that could be largely hidden by trim design on the cars.
Gary
Well the dumping of shares isn’t helping my portfolio! My broker is going to fuss at me for buying more shares 😂 LOL……
They are probably waiting for the bid volume to accumulate before they dump.
I agree. I'm thinking Friday they'll start again. It could be the person responsible for the dump trades took some leave or had a Doctor's appointment...
The dumpers want you to believe they are finished. I am doubtful.
Wow what happened to the volume! ,,.,,,,,,;;;;;;;
From the shareholder call ... The new company will be worth far more than 0.0075 cents ...just where will it shake out ?? 90 patents . we always get excited to see 1 new patent filed with CRTG now add 90 more patents instantly to CRTG and revenue
• Since 2002, Coreoptics and its predecessor have produced more than 8600 machines and
successfully carried out numerous projects with various global partners as a Camera Test
Solution Provider.
• Coreoptics has strategically pivoted to the high-growth automotive business and is now focusing its
resources on this sector. Currently engaged in numerous collaborations with major manufacturers.
• Coreoptics embarked on the rapidly growing business of battery testing equipment.
• Coreoptics’s core technology produces inspection equipment with accuracy and precision,
including Grabber Kits, Test Algorithms, LiDAR Cameras, VR/AR Cameras, and Automotive
Cameras with 90 patents.
So this was in billions not millions ?? that sounds better .
. This could be part of the reason they now have a back log of orders at the Core Optics manufacturing sites . We could see near term partnerships for the testing of our silicon anodes .I believe the silicon anode part of the new company is very important , it got us to the merger with Core Optics , but as a shareholder we need to be holding shares in a company with revenue as they were close to running out of money . The Core Optics revenue generating company merger is huge .
From the last shareholder call https://investors.thecoretecgroup.com/static-files/8e1fc454-94bf-4c4e-b3ec-e4f03b72cb8d
The global automotive camera market is projected to grow from USD 8.81 billion in 2023 to USD 18.18 billion by 2030
Growing at a CAGR of 10.9%(2021~2030)
EU Mandates ADAS Installation in All New Cars by 2024
As of July 6, the European Union (EU) has enforced new general safety regulations for automobiles, making it mandatory for all new car
models to be equipped with Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS). This regulation will first apply to newly introduced car models
starting from July 6 and will extend to all new cars by July 2024.
Has anyone seen, or taken a ride in a self driving Waymo Cab? I've seen many of them and frankly wonder if all the gadgets whirling around on the cab is really necessary, or merely intended to give the rider they're better protected than a car with all the censors found in many modern automobiles capable of self driving in parts of the streets and highways. I'm not suggesting that more censors aren't needed to be truly self driving everywhere, I'm just suggesting that they can be integrated into the car without all the spinning wheels, etc. found on the Waymo Jaguar's.
If I'm right, and if additional and improved sensors can be integrated into the car without looking like an alien vehicle, perhaps Core Optics will become one of the major suppliers of these improved devices.
I should note that all the Waymo's I've seen have had drivers in the drivers seat, but I understand in parts of L.A. they're available driverless, and I'm not certain if there is a charge for using them at this time. Tesla intends to be in this market in time and you can bet they won't have all the whirling gizmos found on the Waymo's, and I'd suspect the Jaguar's will be more comfortable, but the Tesla's will get you there.

I know I've made plenty of similar mistakes over the years. We all need to recognize that the potential here is great if we get just a small percentage of this total. As I gather it, the key is whether our technology is truly superior to others. If it is, it sounds like our intent is licensing it, not manufacturing massive amounts of it. If many of the makers of batteries licensed our technology that could prove more lucrative than manufacturing a small percentage of the batteries ourselves.
I'll be very interested to see the path that all this takes as the people at Core Optics take command. It's possible that they will want to change direction and push media production and sales, rather than licensing the technology to others. I really want to see the company come together and operate for a few quarters to really start to understand all that we have going for us.

Global Volumetric Display Devices Industry: Types, Applications, Market Players, Regional Growth Analysis, and Future Scenarios (2024 - 2031)
https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/global-volumetric-display-devices-industry-types-applications-fff0c/
Gary,
You were right....it's all in the decimal place :)
1,052.8 million = 1.0528 billion and 57,653.4 million = 57.653 billion :)
"1,052.8 million in 2024 and US$ 57,653.4 million in 2034." 1,052.8 million = 1.0528 billion and 57,653.4 million = 57.653 billion :)
57,653.4 million = 57.6534 billions
Actually, Walrus is correct:
“NEWARK, Del., May 6, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- According to Future Market Insights (FMI), the global silicon anode lithium-ion battery market value is set to reach US$ 1,052.8 million in 2024 and US$ 57,653.4 million in 2034. Over the assessment period, the industry is predicted to surge at a CAGR of 49.2%.”
I think if you read it more carefully, it's 54 billion. That's massive growth. The question is, what percent of that can we win.
Gary
This article says the silicon anode business is only 1 million in revenue now and will only hit 54 million 10 years from now . 54 millioin 10 years from now isnt very good . Not sure this article is accurate . Out of all the players in that market to only hit 54 million in sales in 2034 isnt very promising . Between lets say between 10 anode suppliers in 2034 thats only 5 million a year each in revenue . It going to have to be a lot better than that . Good thing CRTG is merging with Core Optics just in case thats happens !! Core Optics is CRTGs ticket now anyway since new tech takes so long to generate revenue CRTG had to get some revenue and they will have it soon enough !!
Hmmm Wonder if the million share dumps are over. Been real light yesterday and so far today...

I agree that a r/s is on the horizon. I’ve been through 3 of them with 3Dicon! They were brutal with last one 300:1 ratio! If this is to happen in order to close the deal, then do it with a small ratio of 5:1. I know that CEO Kim wants Coretec to uplist to the Nasdaq. He wants the world to know about Coretec’s products. I believe that Coretec will soar once on the Nasdaq…….
Pegs, while that would be spectacular if done without an R-S, I could live with one if it is not too severe. The goal of getting on a major exchange would make this a very different company, that's what I want to see.
Gary
Skitaho,
That’s great 😃! I’m hoping that investors will be rewarded for their patience . I’ve been with this stock since it was 3Dicon. I bought extra 100,000 for the long run. I pray that this stock takes off to dollar land with the announcement!
My stock addition is about 40% of the volume today thus far. I frankly have no idea how many shares I will end up with when all the dust settles, but I think it will be worth more than I have invested to date.
Gary
Has anyone heard of this website? It has good information unless someone can suggest a better site that is free.
Perhaps after the merger closes they could if the price is right .
Armistice has to be the one dumping recently not sure who else it could be based on public records of who owns CRTG . Are they out of the pre funded shares or just sitting back waiting for a bunch of big bid orders to dumps shares into ?? Today so far its quiet
Hopefully, Armistice and anybody with pre-funded shares will sell all they can before the merger closes.
I wonder if CRTG is buying back its shares.
Core Optics was formed July 19th 2023 so we are just looking at 5 months worth of financials for 2023 which will cut down the time it takes to audit Core Optics . The Coretec Groups audits were much quicker since they have no revenue and no products on the market. Possibly Coretec will be shipping out some materials for evaluation by the close of the merger and announce who they will be sending the anode materials to. I liked the update as Core Optics obviously has large volumn orders in for their products as they are back logged and had to hire more people and their revenue is increasing according to the news release. Where is Armistice today are they out of pre funded shares ?? Possibly as they had to be getting close as we have traded 27 million shares in 8 days.
I believe so
So the June 30th completion date is attainable!
Statement released says Core Optics is completing their due diligence and auditing. Should be on schedule especially if they're getting "back to work" with patent filings... Looking forward to the market reaction to this press release.
"How long are company audits?
Audits are typically scheduled for three months from beginning to end, which includes four weeks of planning, four weeks of fieldwork and four weeks of compiling the audit report. The auditors are generally working on multiple projects in addition to your audit. Feb 8, 2023"
Test Pilot 🧑✈️, Walrus, Quick Shift, & Gunny,
Do you know if Coretec has been audited yet? Latest News said that Core Optics is working diligently on share exchange & being audited. Sure hope that Coretec has already been audited for this deal. Once audit is completed, do you know how long it will take to process all data?I don’t see this closing this month if Core Optics audit continues onward. Hopefully everything will be done by June. …….
