It does answer the question of how long it can take from first meeting with a customer and getting a product to market. They must have Apple on speed dial to make it happen in a year. We all know it is a consumer electronics product until FDA approval and is somewhat an alternative to the Apple Watch. Apple must think small fish is no threat but they didn’t even drag their feet thinking about it. Weird.
Nowhere in the 10K is Movano Health or the ring mentioned. Although the company stated in the CC they worked on the project since 2022 and helped brought the ring to the market for sales to consumers.
More questions arise. No answers from TC.
Anyone...
Is this statement true? "During 2023, the highest bid price for our common stock was $0.09 per share, while the lowest bid price during that period was $0.04 per share."
Source: LQMT 10K. Page 16.
Anyone.
As Joshua said on Reddit, Q4 revenue seemingly from Movano is a $1 Million a year business. Of course that assumes that the initial rush of orders continues apace and could slow down if the 4Q numbers include Movano working ahead. We should also remember that Liquidmetal screwed the pooch with initial quality, perhaps not of their own fault since Movano was pushing them to move faster than possible, so I’m not sure how that affected cost and revenue since Liquidmetal may have had to eat the cost of failed products, pay for more processing and maybe molds or tests, and then push out more product.
Here’s what seems to me to be a decent opinion on the Evie ring.
No hype no spin. March 8, 2024.
https://www.mindbodygreen.com/articles/evie-ring-review
There are other opinions now out there. Some more con than pro. Can’t tell if there are motives other than straight forward thinking.
Another week passes and LQMT’s share price is up 17.61% from 0.051 cents to 0.05998 cents on extremely weak trading volumes and little interest. The same when LQMT moves up or down.
LQMT held a year end conference call Tuesday March 12, 2024. Two links were posted to listen to the CC.
No new contracts in 26 months. No 8K’s. Silence.
Progress? Up to anyone’s interpretation of the CC. If one just relies heavily on forward worded expectations. (Not always a good idea.)
So rather than going through the usual spot on boring rhetoric. (Thank goodness.) This week I will just reprint one of my recent posts which imo, seems to be in sync with this past week’s trading and the CC and a couple of paragraphs inline with my expectations from the week before.
I will save the 10k for another time.
(Thank heavens he spared us more boring BS.) :)
Posted last week:
Perhaps CEO, Tony Chung can correct this with frankness and transparency in areas he is permitted to talk. If there is anyone that has a clue to LQMT’s immediate future, it would be Tony Chung. Based on what he says or does not say, can change the direction of LQMT north or south of where it is. After all this is the season for the wearing of the green.☘️ :)
Regarding the upcoming conference call, be it a one way or two way call, TC, can state if any NDA’s fell through or if he believes any NDA’s may come to fruition within one or two years, without disclosing a company or the field they are pursuing. He should have no problem discussing issues with the ring.
From a recent post this week:
Researchfyi
Monday, 03/11/2024
“Getting back to LQMT. LQMT stayed in the 0.05’s today. A step up in the right direction. Now let see if TC can bring it home and step it up tomorrow with some meat from his position as CEO and increase the real potential to induce new investors to pop LQMT up from the abyss of below 0.10 cents.
It’s not about the bells and whistles of a glossy website with CE foldable hinges courtesy of China. It’s about the real potential. Not the hyped up one’s of theories. It’s not about the past failures of last year or the 21+ sales reps with their pockets empty turned inside out.
All know the drill. Small contracts equals modest potential. High volume contracts was the focus these past few years. High volume contracts brings home the bacon.
Shareholders have paid LQMT hundreds of thousands of dollars. The time to see potential for a real return on those investments are long overdue. Imo, from watching the liquidity and volumes and numbers of trades, the stock is dead. The time is now to instill new interest not new hope and new expectations, which never has panned out. Let see if TC can do it. He doesn’t need a question. He needs to step up and share the answers.
And he sure as heck doesn’t need my worthless opinions either. But what the heck, they’re always worth less than the price of a LQMT share. :)
Good luck to all in LQMT.
Wish TC LUCK.
Please try not to play kick the can again it didn’t end well for 2023.”
Perhaps in 2025 or 2026 LQMT might succeed and if they ever do make it in 2024, all in it will be very thankful and glad that they did.
Will this be the year revenues increase consistently? The 2nd, 3D, and 4th Q’s will tell. I’ll be pleasantly surprised if the 1st 10Q tics up.
Did TC’s forward worded commentary create new real interest in the stock to attract new investors or did the CC, recreate new real expectations and temporary hype? Everyone has to decide for themselves.
Good luck to all in LQMT.
Wish TC luck.
As for me, until it happens, (the annual expectations call,) it’s nothing more than a rosy outlook of the game Kick The Can.
Let the 10K be your guide and any new 8K of increasing revenues be the proof of TC’s integrity and the fruition of his comments be LQMT’s success this year and for years to come.
Anyone note today’s LQMT trading volume?
How about the number of trades?
🤔
Ring company tanks at EOD hitting record low.
I do not own stock in the ring company.
I bought a small position in MOVE not because of the EVIE ring but because of their unique approach of using radio frequency instead of infrared to measure various parameters. I’m more interested in oxygen, blood pressure and glucose for starters..Down the road I would like them to expand into male health…why ignore half the potential market? Targets such as blood alcohol (or TCH), testosterone, PSA and the enzymes associated with heart attack. LiquidMetal could be in the middle of all this because it’s transparent to RF energy.
I see MOVE as an acquisition target but I would hate to see someone pick the up for $3-$4 when the potential could be so much larger
I wonder why TC did not feature those numbers in his presentation. What it tells me is that there is reason to expect new product revenue flows through the first quarter and beyond if the product remains competitive. Steady flows in six figures......does a contract make.
I was a bit disappointed that TC didn’t provide an update on the Golf Venture with ATJ. .it’s been 2 years and there should be SOMETHING to say…even if it’s only “we submitted prototypes to a certifying agency and anticipating a response by year end”.
Our royalty is only 3% but if I remember correctly…we own 78% of LiquidMetal Golf so we get 2 bites at the apple.
Chip,
Good point!
Perhaps establishes a correlation between revenues to LQMT and volume of product shipped! It would an announcement of a license agreement!
Tomcat
The Q4 revenue of $286K was never attributed to prototyping fees or product sales but there was an interesting comment after the Income Statement…it points to the product sales.
“Revenue…Total revenue increased by $127 to $510 for the year ending December 31, 2023 from $383 for year ending 2022. The increase was attributable to an increase in product shipments primarily related to the launch of health monitoring rings utilizing our technology..”
Chip,
That is interesting. Perhaps the 4th quarter was affected by one or more lump sum one-time payments for prototype or R&D work?
Tomcat
And again ... you have been going to the same Baseball game for over a decade and demanding that there should be Goal Posts ...... and you insist that you will stay here until they put up the Goal Posts all around the baseball field so you can be gratified ... Who is the one with the problem ???
A casual observation….LQMT didn't break out the Q4 results in the financials BUT if you go back to the 10Q for Q3 you will see that the 2023 nine month revenue total was $224K. Comparing that to the year-end number of $510K says that the Q4 revenue exceeded everything YTD. This was definitely downplayed and designed to present the results conservatively….Hmmmj
Any idea what we should expect for 2025? Q1 revenues will be interesting.
You know it’s incredible in lieu of the small uptick and extremely low volumes and the many positive posts. I have to hand it to you. Your assessment is spot on.
No new contracts no 8K unless the $$$ involved has an impact on share price. Basically there still was no rabbit pulled out of the hat. Plus the constant put down of modest contracts vs high volume parts contracts in the past and now the innuendo that modest start ups are ok and high volume contracts from whales have too much oversight and or regulatory delays and are not so much on the front burner again.
The late great magician Houdini could never come close to the slight of hands LQMT just pulled off imo.
You either have a contract or you don’t. You either announce a purchase or you don’t!
Prototypes are a dime a dozen it seems. In LQMT’s case, less than a dime.
You want to talk about prototypes you rehire PH. Now there’s an executive who knew how to talk up prototypes. He had me sold.
You cannot have real potential increased by increasing the potential of forward worded commentary. 0 + 000 still equals 0.
Was the cc upbeat? Yes. Does it paint a rosy picture? Yes. Doesn’t it always? Yes. Do the 10k’s match? No. And it is the last thing that always counts. And if anyone doesn’t believe it. Then they have not been listening to TC’s CC at all.
Good luck to you.
So after the dead earnings report, we get the inspiration of leadership saying pretty much the same thing for five years. And the shares trade up more than usual, then the next day settle back down. As usual. No numbers attached to any of the forward looking malarkey. As usual. I am sorry, but some folks remain in denial. As usual. There is micro management here. From China, the CCP, LL, and LQMT HK, expressed through the appointed CEO and BOD. Translation: Nothing is going to happen for us until the controlling interests say so, or make it happen. Lawyers, accountants, hired to sit on and oversee that process. Well, maybe China is still a few decades behind in their management skills.
As always, just my opinion.
.
Canton,
I think WATTS is long gone.
He may be going by the name of "Saving Grace" over at Lordstown Motors Board. I don't know for sure - just a guess.
Personally, if LQMT succeeds, I wish he was here to participate.
IMHO - Tomcat
Today's trading ...
STINKS and is Boring!!
Tomcat
Is Watts excited about the call?
Watched it. Bot more. 2 medical products in pre-production, one in Robotics other in Testing Devices. Working with others.
New domestic small mgf company partnership that will allow more testing and production of proto types...to be announced soon.
NO debt. Money on hand. On track to be cash flow breakeven this year. If it sells off I will buy a few more. I don't have a lot but
if this goes like many hope, it should provide a nice return. IMO
PLus the ring won 11 awards recently. This should attract others to climb on board using the liquid metal.
I think we are going to have a much better year.... at long last.
Which positive specifics?
Listen to last year’s CC
Then this year’s CC
Set aside any results from last year.
Compare the two. There are two main points that have switched places in the forward worded CC’s going forward this year.
Amazing!
So, ...
I guess we just start to sink back slowly now unless there are more positive news items, or unless someone close to operations knows something positive and word of it spreads?
?? - Tomcat
Anyone having trouble finding the design guide? On the new site?
Need a link?
Ok now question time. Did TC discuss or mention any contract or any terms or any $$$$ between movano and LQMT?
🤔
More to come….
Good luck to all in LQMT.
Wish TC luck.
Knows a lot about counter terroristic threats. Beyond that I can’t answer question.
Uhhhh, what does karp palantir CEO know about iHub?
Did everyone listen to the conference call from TC?
I have not yet, but will in the morning. Glad to see some movement and volume.
okpj
Did everyone listen to the conference call from TC?
I’ll wait a few minutes and make believe everyone did and then ask a question and then watch for the answers.
Why don't you do some research on what it takes to pioneer Billion to Trillion Dollar Industries... Would make life a lot simpler for you and many others ....
Slipped a few decades…..micro-management went out in the 80’s.
I still would like to know what these 7 employees which I assume includes the many executives it takes to run this galloping global business, DO every day, where they do it, and review copies of all the expense accounts. I have not seen that broken out anywhere. We don't even get a free sandwich anymore. Much less the opportunity to question them, or the Chairman and controlling holder. Lot's of shares traded today, up a whole penny. Running hot, by golly.
Bird in the hand …grabbing a quick 10% and run! Not actually investors….just chasing short term pops.
Afternoon speculative BEAR sellers depressing the stock price?
Boring & tiring!
IMHO - Tomcat
Watt happened to the electrical guy??
Tomcat
Good point Chip. The CC was encouraging to most investors except for one or two on this board.
TC spoke with confidence about upcoming contracts.
They are in process of getting a U.S. manufacturer on board.
This all sounds like more revenue and I am looking for the stock price to reflect all of this potential!
Stock prices are a leading indicator so the price should reflect the environment 2 quarters out…..I’m expecting double digits!
I am still here & have all my shares!!

I began thinking…”If I were looking for a manufacturing partner for LQMT…what would I consider?” I immediately jumped to the Metal Injection Molding (MIM) industry so I went looking for potential candidates. I ultimately found an outfit called “Form Technologies” in Portland, Oregon. Form Technologies has 33 different manufacturing locations in 22 countries. Their customer list looks like exactly what we are targeting.
They are organized in 3 companies depending upon method of manufacture….OPTIMIM has only one location (Portland) and specializes in MIM applications but there is another of interest….their DYNACAST unit (die casting of specialty small products) with 3 locations in the US…..one of which is in Lake Forest, California. Do you believe in coincidences? These guys have the manufacturing expertise to hit the ground running.
Good news/Bad news…..short learning curve/ protect the technology and keep it from being stolen. Safeguards need to be in place for the relationship to work….control the 106b alloy manufacture, strong contract on who can do what etc. It would probably be good to involve Apple lawyers in the contract while stressing to Form Technology the connection to Apple through Crucible Intellectual Property. They need to respect the boundaries.
It’s an interesting possibility…..also interesting that DYNACAST works with magnesium alloys similar to the materials used in Eontec’s “bone nails” so there is also the possibility of manufacturing those in the US as an alternative to the “made in China” problem.
This is the fun stuff!
ROTFL!! And yet you respond to all of my posts. Guess your time isn't that valuable.
You can find the time to post, just not find the time to defend your lies.
Again, I urge everyone here to know who is providing you with information. monroe ONLY posts on failing stock boards. Look for yourself. He is a negative indicator.
My time is much more valuable than responding to your dishonest lameness.
Fuck off gremlin.
"However I must say that if one were going to discourage investors, one would write up the annual report exactly as written, filled with every warning conceivable, throughout. Red flags everywhere. I think this is too much lawyering, but they are building a defense (can't help it if the idiots bought this dog, we warned them!)
in the event the well known conflicts of interest and the CCP eventually lead to the SEC."
Quite insightful and I do think the same. The companies progress or lack of may well come after November elections. We are in interesting geo political times.
ya know, if your posts were honest, you'd spend more time disproving everything I've shown, and less time calling me names.
I do tons of due diligence.....on certain posters here I find to be scammers.
I do notice your responses to me have become angrier as I've busted your last pump and dump attempt on CYDY.
I hope you lost a ton!!! You claim you bought more, years from now you will claim you were a seller.....again, all a part of your history.
Your own posts and I am your worst nightmare. I only "attack" the worst of the fraudsters.
Because you are a lazy liar. You are lucky they allow you on Ihub. A lower piece of shit does not exist here that compares to you.
My posts and representations speak for themselves. Your failure to correctly put them in context is dishonest. Did I say you were
less than worthless never offering any fundamental or technical analysis, never offering any opinion based on a thorough examination
of available data, never doing any due diligence about any company. What you do is to meddle in other peoples posts who do not support
your lame theories. Your attacking others is why no one likes your ass. Try doing some honest due diligence that relates to a companies
health whether that reveals pro or con ... it is what it is, and you, you piece of shit, learn to man up.
The 'AGSM' was one way again, and other than the MOVE news, seems it could have been given anytime in the last three years. Including the promise to keep us informed. Right. So MOVE is good, and Yihao is confirmed as producing the parts in China. We have seen this before, and it is positive. Then as we read the financials, there is still negligible royalties and fees (as of yearend), and we still have just three performing customers. With more to come in jewelry, medical, yada yada. However I must say that if one were going to discourage investors, one would write up the annual report exactly as written, filled with every warning conceivable, throughout. Red flags everywhere. I think this is too much lawyering, but they are building a defense (can't help it if the idiots bought this dog, we warned them!)
in the event the well known conflicts of interest and the CCP eventually lead to the SEC. Maybe we will see some revenue in the first quarter, maybe even a contract with some numbers attached. That is an old story here as well.
In case you didn’t get the memo…

No theories no speculation. Read!
It’s not complicated.
Good luck to all in LQMT.
Wish TC luck.
Your response is very reminiscent to my sister at age 8 telling me "I know you are but what am I?"
I invite everyone on any board you post on, to just go back and read your history. I don't need to point anything out, you out your own lies.
I also invite anyone to find lies I have told. Good luck finding any.
Anyone needing a clue, just look for his posts telling others to hold their shares.....years later he will admit he was selling at the same time. He really should be booted from IHUB.
