Magnesium wheels: nothing to do with LQMT or Eontec. Magnesium alloy have been around since the 1930s. Magnesium is strong and it’s lighter weight than aluminum. Magnesium alloys have been used in many products. The biodegradable magnesium that Li came up with is totally different than other magnesium alloy products.
Nothing specific to gastroenterology; however, there are many devices that contain numerous metal parts (such as endoscopes, small capsules containing a light source and a camera, and many others). So who knows? In a way, it's difficult to think of any high tech device that can't benefit from precision made liquidmetal parts.
Half of smartphones with flexible OLED panels will be sold by Apple in 2021, outselling both Huawei and Samsung combined. FEXIBLE = hinges. Hinges made from???

Thanks, man. I can’t wait to buy a Pro and take it apart.
If KanadienEH is correct, and I think he is, we should see the share price start to climb this week.
Their bold statement was not steipphype. It will be a significant step up.
The Berlin drop was a system glitch. Nothing more.
It would be nice to have something like the 3rd quarter 10-Q take my mind off of the election. Or... maybe it would be nice to have something like the election take my mind off of the up coming 10-Q. Odds are that at least one of those events will make me happy. I don’t think I could survive a loss in both.
When the Chinese use the phrase Liquid Metal or liquid metal (two words) the are referring to a generic term for amorphous metals, and not to LQMT. Josh pointed that out quite a while ago.
I’ve read the agreement between LQMT and Eontec (the PLA) about 3 or 4 times. It’s quite clear that some sort of royalty payments will accrue to LQMT if certain Eon products are sold in territories granted to LQMT. How much the royalty payment is, I’m not sure. Which products, exactly, are covered? I’m not entirely certain. How long is the gap between the selling of the covered Eon products and payment of royalties to LQMT? I don’t know.
I’m sure that had been as helpful to you as it is to me.
But fear not. We will find all our questions answered in one of the up and coming quarterly or annual filings... maybe...one of these days, perhaps.
All valid points, but the only fact that really matters will be contained in the up coming 10-Q.
Holding tight every day.
Getting tight each afternoon.
Good luck to us all.
I understand. Buy some Champagne as well as more whiskey. That’s called hedging your bet.
What a ridiculous argument. If no one is selling and only the Market Makers are buying, who are they buying from?
Excellent summary Watts.
Reason #9 (implied but not specifically stated)
9. Long, multi-year product life insures multi-year revenue stream.
I think they have until the middle of the month until they have to report. So the Q-10 might be released next week or it might not. The lower the price falls, the more difficult it becomes to get to $.20 and above following the report.
Exactly. Well reasoned. Good points, all.
Jagshemash! Pardon my ignorance, but how does Eontec’s revenues and profits translate into any money going to LQMT? Chenqui.
(I’m going to hold my applause until I see LQMT’s Q-10 from the third quarter.)
Did you hear the thunder today?
Me neither.
Right on, Yama!
What a season. Two, almost simultaneous, highly charged events: the election and LQMT’s Q3 report. It’s enough of an ordeal just to deal with one of those by itself.
Looking forward to X-Mass. By then it will all be behind us... maybe.
Even if/when Apple “reveals its secret,” the path to revenues for LQMT, from Apple’s use of BMGs, is purely speculative. If it happens, great. But I’m not in this because I’m waiting for that to happen.
Well said, Padre. I’m with you 100%. Li will deliver this quarter.
You are correct. The non-sales cash inflow is important in the sense you mention, and it was a good move on the part of Lugee to set up that stage, but it will mean nothing to the share price compared to the sales revenue reported in the Q3 data.
If their total sales revenue for the quarter is a piddling $100k - $150k, we will see the share price drop back to 6 or 7 cents, even if they hold out the promise of additional business "in the future."
After making a big splash with their announcement last quarter, they either deliver good sales numbers or languish on the vine. The announcement of their first volume, recurrent monthly order placed them at the point at which the rubber has hit the road. The time to hide behind non-sales cash inflow is over. -- Just my $.02.
Thanks for doing that. I'm not sure that Eutectix will need permits to add just a few machines to their pre-LQMT numbers. Unlike LQMT, that purchased a building with insufficient power to operate all its machinery, it is most likely that Eutectix acquired all permits and all the power they needed prior to opening up shop. LQMT sold them only 4 Injection molding machines and two or three other pieces of machinery.
"Lqmt has no in house R&D?"
I seriously doubt Apple is the customer that gave LQMT the recurring order. Based on other management statements the volume recurring order is a multi-year order. That means the part doesn’t change configuration year after year like Apple parts do.
Thank you for your input and for sharing your optimism.
I expect good revenue numbers, but nothing about who the customer is. Or at least, nothing about the main customer, if there are more than one. — Just my guess, of course.
The Q2 report was the most promising report since Apple and LQMT signed the MTA in 2010, and yet the performance of the stock has been hugely disappointing. The predicted price run up to the mid November report not only failed to materialize, it went in the opposite direction.
The more frenzied and more sophisticated the Apple chatter becomes, the lower the share price goes. It’s like the market is saying, “if all you’ve got are “proofs” that Apple will use liquidmetal, you’ve got nothing: just the same old stories that have floated this message board’s boat for the past decade.”
Maybe we should keep our Apple connect the dot stories hidden for a while and see if the share price goes up.
Yes, liquidmetal resists scratching (I have a few liquidmetal parts). But it can be scratched, just not as easily as steel or aluminum.
I know.
It was just a parody of our legal system (which I actually have great respect for). I take objection to any use of language that tries to be as intentionally confusing as we use in medicine.
Thanks, man!
“In some embodiments, between elongated body and blade, the second member, rather than the proximal end of the elongated body, is still configured to facilitate interference fit bonding. Additionally, in some embodiments, the blade is injection molded about the second engagement member to solidify and define interference fit bonding between the elongated body and blade.”
Oh. I see.
(What language are patents written in?)
Friend, believe me, I understand where you are coming from. But I have you beat. I’ve been in this since 2002 — although not nearly as heavily invested as I am now. I’ve been through it all. You may ask why I stayed invested in this for so long. Stand by. My shrink tells me that I’ll know the answer after just a few more years of analysis.
I hate to say, “ but this time is different.” So I won’t.
(But this time IS different.)
BTW, some of those original RFQs are starting to pay off. Just took longer than I would have believed.
