Institutional ownership up!
Gates have been breached today!
This might the new push to 14+
I read an article about Iphone flexible screen concept a couple of years ago. They also Talked about a big screen you could roll up and take on a picnic.
Graphene was the key ingredient.
That led me to finding CVV.

Check this out. I saw tv the commercial tonight.
Here we go again....Management wants to sell it's shares so it hires a promoter to publish a pretend "news" article and management simultaneously dumps $68K of shares.
Right back to a year ago.
Such a delicacy deserves international recognition.
Sweet we are looking good

Analysts await CVD Equipment Corporation (NASDAQ:CVV) to reports earnings on November, 16.
According to Zacks, “CVD Equipment Corporation designs, develops and manufactures customized equipment and process solutions used to develop and manufacture solar, nano and advanced electronic components, materials and coatings for research and industrial applications. It offers a broad range of chemical vapor deposition, gas control and other equipment used by customers to research, design and manufacture semiconductors, solar cells, carbon nanotubes, nanowires, LEDs, MEMS, smart glass coatings, battery and/or ultra capacitor materials, medical and industrial coatings. The Company’s products are sold to the semiconductor, optoelectronic, wireless telecommunications, and aerospace industries. CVD Equipment Corporation, formerly known as CDV Equipment Corporation, is headquartered in Ronkonkoma, New York.”
The institutional sentiment decreased to 0.75 in Q2 2015. Its down 0.25, from 1 in 2015Q1.

Nice good for you!
Amazing I bought when the U.S. Dollar was at all time low
It's all $$$ for me here
Is CVD Equipment (CVV) a Graphene Investment?
September 13, 2013 By Nanalyze 4 Comments
http://www.nanalyze.com/2013/09/is-cvd-equipment-a-graphene-investment/
In an earlier article we discussed an amazing material called graphene and looked at several companies that have been said to provide exposure to the graphene story; Graftech and Graphene Nanochem. One other company that is discussed as a play on graphene is CVD Equipment, a company that offers a range of chemical vapor deposition and gas control equipment.

About CVD
Founded in 1982, New York based CVD Equipment Corporation (NASDAQ:CVV) has 180 employees and a current market cap of 72 million. Revenues for the past five years are seen below:
CVV_Revenue
With 8 consecutive years of profitability, the company has provided shareholders with a return of over +180% in the past 5 years. The decrease in revenue and backlog for 2012 is mainly attributed to the disruption caused by their move into a larger production facility. The company provides a revenue breakdown between their CVD and Gas Control divisions which represent about 80% and 20% of total revenues respectively.
What is Chemical Vapor Deposition?
Chemical Vapor Deposition or CVD is a method of applying a very thin layer of material on to a surface. For example, a company we highlighted earier, P2i, uses this method to apply their nano polymer to shoes, phones, and many other products to make them waterproof. CVD has applications in coatings, semiconductors, solar cells, nanomaterials, LEDs, and many more. In 2008/2009 CVD was first used to produce graphene.
CVD Equipment and Graphene
In 2005, the Company aquired FirstNano giving them turn-key CVD systems for nanotechnology, solar, semiconductor and MEMS applications. Through this subsidiary, CVD offers the following products and services related to Graphene:
CVDGraphene™ Services
A fully equiped application lab which can be rented and comes with scientists for an additional fee. The lab is currently being used by several startups as an incubator of sorts.
CVDGraphene™ Materials
The Company offers several “starting” graphene products that are suitable for initial R&D applications and IP developments as a low cost starting point for academic researchers and exploration R&D projects.
CVDGraphene™ Turn-Key Equipment and Manufacturing
Several Easytube CVD systems are offered for the production of graphene. The various components of the CVD system can be purchased individually or as a turn-key solution.
The Company has also signed join IP development agreements with privately held companies Graphene Batteries and Grafoid.
Competitors
While the company may have potential as a provider of CVD systems for the production of graphene, they aren’t the only ones playing in this space. There are larger companies such as Aixtron and Veeco who compete in the CVD area with market caps of $1.7 and $1.4 billion respectively. Startup PlanarTech recently delivered a CVD machine for graphene production to 2-DTech Limited, a subsidiary of the University of Manchester where graphene was discovered. Another University of Manchester spinout, Graphene Industries, claims to produce the world’s highest quality graphene and uses deposition equipment from Lesker and also Moorefield’s nanoCVD equipment. According to the Photonics Buyers Guide, there are a total of 42 companies selling CVD equipment.
Intellectual Property
Since the company provides CVD machines that can produce graphene as many other companies do, and produces graphene for purchase as a number of other companies do, any sustainable competitive advantage should be supported by intellectual property or strong expenditures in R&D. The company currently values their intellectual property portfolio at around $41 thousand. Only last year the company expanded their laboratory staff and began conducting R&D independently of which incurred costs of $389,000.
CVV may be a good company to invest in for other reasons, however the Company’s ability to provide investors immediate pure play exposure to the graphene story is questionable. However, with the company’s stated commitment to the future of graphene in their investor presentations, it certainly merits watching.

CVV is the only stock with a real, profitable business in graphene that isn’t so big that it gets lost. They have wisely used the semiconductor equipment sales slump to regroup and are now positioned to benefit from the explosive growth to come.
Several mining stocks have tied themselves to graphene as a hot story to pump their stock but I don’t think we will need to mine graphite for most applications. One layer of atoms isn’t much carbon. CVV’s equipment uses natural gas (methane) as a source of carbon. Very cheap and available.
The killer app will be supercapacitors, so I also bought MXWL, the leader in that industry. They have been doing joint research with UCLA and Nanotec on using graphene.

Thank you for your thoughts Tom. Indeed there will be many companies attempting to use the word “graphene” to pump themselves whether maliciously or not and its equally useful to investors to expose the bad along with the good. One mining stock I’m sure you’re aware of is Focus Graphite with their ownership stake in Grafoid. Will look to profile them in the future. Will also look into MXWL as I was unaware they were doing graphene research. Appreciate the input!

Our institute is looking to bye CVD equipment for graphen deposition

I just read that. I would like to see some attention from institutional
Buyers.
the lawsuits are behind us did you see the 8ks last week?
now we can focus on a 40-50 million dollar year.
Cvd s success is all attributed to managements lies and Lenny's manipulation of his conpany.
It's all downhill from here
All in my opinion of course
Muhaha
Man it's catchy! This will be my last
post, I have family to feed can't
Afford to get negativity issues itis
CVD Doom and gloom. It's all lies management has been lying to us.
With pending lawsuits and Leonard Rosembaum at helm this is going nowhere.
I am from the states, daughter was north of the border for school
In Toronto
Poutine but I'll give you an A for effort
Ceo dumping stock into a profitable
Position. The man is clearly unfit
To lead CVV
That great! Maybe throw in some
Eggs and poonteen
Bacon you say?
I bought a boatload when U.S. Currency was at a low 4 years ago
We are talking Canadian bacon
Why Sheldon that was a little sarcastic.
More orders for CVV go!
$14.50 works for me
Patience...this will be over $25 by the end of last year. I have that on good authority and you can count on it.
Anywhere close is good enough for me
This might be the move back to 15$
.....or sell.
Wish the damn company would get its fiscal year at least on a quarter period. Keep looking for a Q too early... another month yet.
Lots of bs or and lots of bs posts on here too
Yawn
Go cvd ! Another Record 2015
It's becoming apparent that the only thing propping this up was the BS PR's and misrepresentations of "management".
