I don't see other companies issuing 8-K's for every individual sale.... I'm not so sure that'd be material, especially since thy already announced who they were working with, and even who put in RFQs---- and bear in mind, that was announced WITH the last Q report. Many of those names (BMW, etc) we hadn't even heard mentioned before (at least not officially-- dot connectors!) prior to last report. So I wouldn't rule out an earnings surprise. I don't expect full blown recurring contracts yet.... but it's possible that some of those names in the pipeline have at least placed some initial orders. I don't think they've PR'd every print rite sale either.... like if you go back to the # of machines out there- they are at more locations than what they've announced.
Thanks! That makes sense.
Silver- are you saying it is better to buy the units than just hold what we have of the regular stock? The regular stock is being uplisted also right? Are you saying the units will appreciate faster? I'm not sure I understand this offering. :/
I seem to recall Mark saying specifically their agreement prohibits the use of PrintRite for production runs in one of our conference calls. (Not this last one, possibly the one before?). The current agreement with GE is for testing/evaluation purposes only, per that transcript.
I think you're thinking of someone else. As far as I know, silver has been among the most patient and levelheaded of them all...
"plumbering" lol....omg....
Ditto.... I've honestly lost track and don't even want to attempt to add up the trading deficit for fear I'll beat my head against the wall for not staying sold and waiting back at .27 haha. (or $27 now I guess). I bought back wayyyy too early and most of my attempts to flip/average down have failed pretty terribly. :/ That said, I am still very excited about the company and yesterday's news (to me) was the first sign of forward/ continued progress with GE we've seen in awhile so very upbeat about that. A very good sign indeed! Now if only we could have an up day today for my birthday things would be golden. :)
Can't win for losing.... Great news and down big, wth.
So in effect sounds like PrintRite being used for fuel nozzles :) Me like!
That's an interesting proposition....but didn't they sell off most of GE Capital's assets last year? Or like restructure it somehow?
I think it's great. [Also, short term- today's panic= a nice opportunity]. But seriously long term I think it'll be good for them overall.
Anyone know when next earnings report comes out?
Actually that's exactly how they do it. They go on site to train ppl.
They have CNC machines there too. Mark mentioned it at one point though I have no idea where to find that quote. Just remembered it because I was taking CNC classes at the time.
I like the quote, "to FINALIZE our contracts with them." :) also "contracts in various stages of negotiation"
I think it was regular welding too. They had photos of welds using their closed loop control vs. not using it in one of their old papers-- I want to say it was on the B6Sigma page. Will try to find it and edit accordingly.
Edit: Can't find it on the page, but does mention GMAW welding in the testimonials....http://www.sigmalabsinc.com/index.php?page=testimonials
Applied to welding, Sigma's IPQA is fully closed loop and is what they originally did before applying it to Additive Manufacturing which is basically welding, but with lasers. That's why they re-applied for the closed loop control patent specifically for AM-- but it got rejected because the USPTO said that it overlapped/ was already covered by their existing patent that stated welding. I believe they mentioned additive processes in their current patent-- but they wanted it in the title or something so there would be absolutely no mistaking their IP. I'm pretty sure it was the welding IPQA that they sold to....Boeing? or one of those people they were working with in 2011/12.
That's crazy-- I mean closed loop control with wire-feed (like in welding) is literally our patent....not to mention our oldest tech/what we've been doing the longest/ something we've actually sold.... [all those closed loop weld pictures in their papers, the 2011/12 work...] and didn't Mark say we were working with a Phillips? Hmmm....... Idk what to think about this.
That would be very slow/expensive.
If we see the % going down does that mean they're covering? Or is it mostly MM shorting for liquidity? Idk how it works.
Cryptic as a fortune cookie...lol.
What do you mean?
hahaha! Thanks! Though please don't let this start a bunch of congratulations messages! We're close, but hasn't happened yet.
I had a dream last night that it was several weeks from now...we'd drifted up a little over the weeks... I'd had our baby and was recovering... checked stocks on my husbands phone, and out of nowhere, Sigma got one of those multimillion dollar contracts we were all hoping for, and the price went up to $20 in like a day. haha. It was a good dream.
Where'd the volume go?
Are the MM's playing chicken? lol 2k @ 3.99 on bid.... 1100@4.24 on ask....
Heck, even I could have told him that...;) I'm doing the teaching/ mom thing but study business for kicks as I prepare for future schemes/endeavors I will enact in my late 30s. If calling the effects of an R/S is all the prescience it takes, I'd be a board member for 5 grand and some plane tickets out there.... free vacation haha [Kidding... but seriously-- board members can't be THAT hard to find. I can think of a lot of people who'd be great at it, even on here... Not everyone is a rubber stamp.] Just blows my mind no one said anything. Aren't they supposed to assess risk? Do they not know they're on the OTC? smh.
Mark did say that it needed to be done at that time, yes. He sounded confident and like something was coming on the CC, but after reading Alan's account, i really don't know. You are right to say something doesn't add up.... optimistically, MC just can't disclose certain things due to NDAs or the shareholder meeting quiet period.... Pessimistically-- he's really a terrible businessman who doesn't get the market.... The truth may be somewhere in between. Regarding share price, I do think we'll turn around again before too long-- not necessarily due to any news (though we may get some next week) but just seems way oversold right now given what the value was a couple weeks ago. Nothing's really changed, unless they end up issuing a bunch of shares or something stupid... and per the pdf-- there ARE quite a few new items in the works-- it's just a question of when we'll see actual $$ from all these endeavors. I think we ought to bounce out of these twos regardless... I mean they did just have a really good quarter, and so long as there's not some imminent offering, I think it'll be all right. We'll see!
I would agree with that. That sounds reasonable.
Alan, if you happen to have saved your write up please PM it to me so I can chew on it. Thanks!!
Trump mentioned 3D printing (in relation to military) on that foreign policy speech he gave today. It was one example where he said America could and is excelling. [Please don't start debating Trump... I just saw headlines and decided to watch it.] I thought it was cool that the military's plans for 3D printing are really becoming known as serious... not just hypothetical. Encouraging a little, perhaps.
Yeah they've been SUPER inaccurate with bid/ask counts lately.
I'm not saying it's not retail. I just think it's interesting that some one (or multiple ppl) are also buying in such large quantities. I just wonder who's doing it.
Thursday, huh? I'd say they'd wait til Monday but who knows. I see that the volume continues....really wondering whether that's a positive or a negative. While on the one hand that means people are dumping- this walk down seems so orchestrated, and someone's accumulating hand over fist... what do you all think?
Holy crap that volume!! [What does it MEAN?]
Would that be legal?
Anyone think maybe there's a BIG buyer with a specific price target in the wings? This is being walked down so methodically it's ridiculous. Company? China? Some deep pocketed person? Just seems really weird. It's so slow, steady, orderly... and the way they're creatively showing the bid/ask makes me wonder.
I was thinking about this earlier.... Mark Cola (pre-split) had about 32m shares (if I remember right). At Sigma Labs' all-time high those were worth about 8.8-9m.... currently (post-split) they are worth just 1.1m.... Considering Mark (probably, eventually) wants to retire--I would say he too has a vested interest in getting the PPS up to reasonable levels!
While it sucks to see these plummeting prices-- SOMEONE is also buying at these rock bottom levels-- and volume has been really high (relatively speaking.) I've been watching L2 and while I don't know what the price action means/what the end game is, it does appear to be pretty orchestrated-- big "axes", hidden bids that don't match the actual volume. It'll only show "100" but suddenly volume shoots up by another 1500 shares or whatever. Seems strange. I have a hard time believing that all these shareholders that have been on board for 2, 3 years are selling at a loss in a panic right now.... it doesn't look panicked.... it looks calculated.
