Yup same here
Ok I had a reply. The shares for lawsuit are not in O/S just reserved in treasury.
Wow, that actually had a hint of positivity? I think a pig just flew past my window.
Stop sign has been removed from QMC OTCBB status. Still not back to QB status but should help with trading activity in some respect.

Question for the board, does anyone know if the current O/S includes for shares set aside for the SBI lawsuit? I believe these shares must be accounted for until the lawsuit is resolved and then they will come off the books.
I would say there is massive difference between stating you are running a facility 24/7 producing large amounts of material for customers and stating you have the capability to produce a specific amount pending on contracts wouldn't you?
I don't believe Squires has ever crossed the line of outright deception like Edelman has on many occasions. I really marveled at his setup at CES where he cleverly inserted film into displays with brand names on them to suggest partnerships with certain companies.
Has there been setbacks for QMC, without a doubt and as we all know the market demand is driven by the display manufacturers. It's taken way longer than I thought but believe QMC is poised to supply a large share of the market.
Shareholder statement
As the display industry continues to adopt and expand the application of cadmium-free quantum dots for displays, the need for a supplier that can produce these materials with extremely high uniformity while maintaining a very low price point will be paramount.
We firmly believe that our patented continuous-flow technology, which is now beginning to gain recognition among some of the key industry participants as being a superior process technology for both high capacity and low cost puts us at a distinct advantage to meet this
metric and gain market share in this rapidly growing market space.
Nanoco, the biggest pump and dump scheme I have seen.
List of BS statements from Edelman and Nanoco
The Dow factory is at last producing Nano's cadmium free quantum dots (CFQDs).
Dow has started shipping CFQDs to Samsung, which is pushing hard for them. Samsung is planning a major push into TVs using CFQDs, with Dow/Nano as a dual source.
Dow has a contract from LG to supply Nano's CFQDs.
The Dow contract with Nano runs until 2028 and while royalties are reduced, they are still in double figures.
Nano is able to improve productivity significantly at the Runcorn factory at little extra cost.
Nano is talking about supplying a variety of TV manufacturers. One well-known name is looking to take CFQDs from Runcorn, and could agree to build a factory making Nano's CFQDs for its own use and for sale to others.
Nano has cash enough for two years. It expects lower revenues for the current year (to end July), but hopes for higher revenues thereafter.
Nano terminated Dow's exclusive right to make Nano CFQDs for display because it looked as if Dow would not make early sales targets.
There is a possibility that Nano could sign a deal with the new customer/manufacturer before July 31, and that modest initial royalties on the first CFQD sales could be recognised by that date.
Major shareholder Henderson has bought one million more shares recently, going up to 19.35%. Entrepreneur investor Richard Griffiths, who sold some Nano a while back, recently added nearly 7m shares and with CFDs now has more than 8.6%.
Nanoco is still the only company capable of producing CADMIUM FREE quantum dots in high volume just as demand for quantum dots is exploding and dots containing cadmium are being phased out or outlawed over much of the globe.
Edelman should hide his head in shame for all the Runcorn running 24/7, Dow factory testing/running and whispers of Samsung BS he has spouted over the years, while at the same time selling personal shares whenever he has pumped.
Good luck with your investment over there.
Engadget: Samsung unveils an 8K QLED TV you'll actually be able to buy.

Getting exciting now. One more Q then I believe we will see the kind of news investors have long been waiting for.
Try smiling we are moving in the right direction for a change.
It looks like they have the goods. Let's see a deal Steve!
I forgot how big is the market for Greenhouse FILMS for space missions?
I'll let your record speak for itself. You really think this is going to a higher court? Research the odds of a decision being overturned, in particular the grounds for this lawsuit are laughable. SBI tried to strong arm QMC and failed big time.
In the formal legal world, a court case that is dismissed with prejudice means that it is dismissed permanently. A case dismissed with prejudice is over and done with, once and for all, and can't be brought back to court. Give it up, you're really looking desperate now.
SP has been affected by these lawsuits, it's undeniable.
SBI thought they could pressure QMC into submission and is losing every battle. At some point as you stated "the will to continue and costs" don't make sense. SPI could now be facing a counter lawsuit and a trial by jury which would expose their predatory practices and irreparably damage their business. Do you think QMC is the only company that SPI has used these predatory actions on? They screwed up big time trying to intimidate Steve, yesterday's ruling was a big deal!
Regardless of what the past holds as far as revenue I more interested in what will be announced once the Qs are filed.
UbiQD likely bought Nanocos amazing qdot grow light process since Nanoco isn't into quantum dots anymore. LOL
I expect the other 2 Qs to follow shortly now that transition to the new accounting firm has completed and the first of 3 late Qs are filed. Once QMC is current then I believe we will be seeing significant news releases.
Haven't looked in 6 weeks and have $110k invested. LOL!
Interesting podcast start at 4 min mark and gets into Nanosys at the 6 min point.

LG embarrasses with OLED burn-in at SID tradeshow.
https://www.zdnet.com/article/lg-embarrasses-with-oled-burn-in-at-tradeshow/
Cadmium free at what level of quality? Big difference between making a high level Cadmium vs high level Cadmium Free.
As you can see by Nanosys still pushing their Hyperion Dots they can't get a completely cad-free product to a high enough level.
And Nanoco? Total silence other than the CEO selling large amounts of shares.
I'll go with a retired employee who actually worked in the industry before someone that hasn't even visited QMC facilities at San Marcos!
We will see who has the "know how" as you put it.
Who is it today according to you, Nanosys or Nanoco? Not QMC obviously so why are you here again?
Recent SH info

From recent SH update.
If you are ever in the San Marcos area and would
be interested in touring our facility to get a firsthand
look at what we are doing to accomplish this
goal, please let us know. We are always interested
in meeting our shareholders face-to-face and we
would be glad to arrange a personal tour.
Maybe you should take the offer up instead of guessing. Have to buy at least one share to get in though.
Wait.. I thought you said Nanoco was the leader? Didn't they have the "know how" as you put it?
LG OLED burn-in at Incheon Airport reignites controversy | ZDNet
https://www.zdnet.com/article/lg-oled-burn-in-at-incheon-airport-reignites-controversy/
I don't think there are any of us long time investors/posters that haven't been disappointed by the long path to revenues but let's be clear the market dictates the revenues and the cadmium free market is just now ramping up.
Revenues are reported widely by independent sources to be in the billions.
The global quantum dot display market is expected to grow approximately at USD 196.99 billion by 2023, approx. 24.96% of CAGR from 2017 to 2023. That's display's only!
QMC has made significant accomplishments do you agree? or do you believe the following statements are false?
Business Accomplishments
The following outlines the business accomplishments of the Company over the last few years:
Initiated collaborations with a number of LED and Micro LED companies;
Developed stabilized cadmium free QDs and encapsulation process for remote phosphor LED applications and surpassed 3,000 hours continuous on time without measurable degradation;
Reduced QD process cost by more than 25% and doubled annual production throughput capacity using existing process equipment;
Significantly improved cadmium free QD optical performance. Achieved >86% Rec. 2020 and improving;
Initiated collaboration for QD enhanced display film with arguably the world’s largest multinational chemical company;
Developed and introduced blue cadmium free high-performance QDs;
Developed and introduced the first [color=red]100% quantum yield cadmium-free red QDs;

How are you feeling about your Nanoco investment when the patent application states the following
"In general, batch synthesis of nanoparticles suffers from disadvantages of slow mixing and heating, and batch-to-batch reproducibility issues. These issues escalate further when scaling up."
There are lots of positives. Try reading the 10K. IMO news will follow the Q filings and uplisting.

10K done and now they need to file the subsequent 10Q’s in order to restore the companies OTCQB listing status. I believe we will see news once this has been accomplished.
What nonsense. Of course Star Park is an incubator for companies, who ever disputed that? It's right on their main page. We will see very soon who is right. Too bad you won't be a part of it.

LOK! You don't think Squires was instrumental in getting them removed? Who is in charge now? He cleaned house believe it. Sri and company was a turn in the wrong direction which I believe cost the company 6-12 months of progress and left a hell of a mess. IMO these late filings are part of the result.
Yup some people get it.. some never will.
At a couple hundred thousand shares per day I really don't think Squires and company are behind it.
Before proceeding, however, it is important to distinguish between two common uses of the stock market: investing and speculation. Investing is when you hand over your money so that it is put to use for productive projects such as growth or expansion. Investing in a factory, in research and development, in a new business idea – these are all done with the expectation that in the future, the factory, the research, or the startup will be worth more than the original investment. That means you have a reason to believe the factory needs to be expanded, or that you understand broadly the type of research being done and what the payoff might be, or that you understand and believe in the business plan of the new venture. In other words, investing is a rational decision made with an eye to the future. When you invest, your money is intended to be put to work increasing value.
Speculation, on the other hand, is akin to gambling. Speculators purchase something with the hope that they can soon sell it at a higher price, but without necessarily understanding – or even caring – about why the price should go up. Sometimes, speculators have a gut feeling, or are trading on rumor, but ultimately they do not concern themselves with the factory, the R&D, or the business plan. Speculation should not always be viewed as a bad thing, however; speculators add liquidity to markets, and many have done very well for themselves. At the same time, many smart investors have lost their fortunes in the stock market through speculation. The important distinction between investors and speculators is not a normative one, but rather that investors are generally more interested in the processes underlying prices; they are in it for the long haul, while speculators are more interested in the price itself, and with shorter time horizons for making money.
Me = Investor
You = Speculator
Market share? How much of a market are we currently talking about?
Quantum dot/Nanoparticle applications are now becoming commercially viable due to technology like QMCs flow process.
Do a google search on all the applications QDs will be a part of.
I would be happy with just displays and that is just fraction of all the vertical industries to be affected.
Side note.. be careful not to hijack the thread by changing the subject.lol
According to Market Research Future Analysis, quantum dot display market has been valued at approx. USD 3.9 Billion by the end of forecast period with 25% of CAGR during forecast period 2017 to 2023.
