My first purchase was in the summer of 2013. I bought into SGLB when someone mentioned SGLB on a message board. I checked them out and realized that they had this quality assurance process approved by Boeing. I read a little more and saw the Joint Technology Development Agreement with GE Aviation. I brought 100K right away. I was impressed that a tiny company with 4 employees possessed this technology that companies of Boeing and GE caliber would want to work with. I did not understand much about the technology but I knew that if GE Aviation wanted to do a JTDA with SGLB then obviously Mark Cola had a great and iuseful technology. This technology that GE expected to save 25 percent in production cost with. I understood that this was not your typical "sticky pinky" company where CEO's pretend to have product or services or have a great idea which is all fluff that no one can actually use. I realized then that this maybe that diamond in the rough that I was looking for.
I continued to do my due diligence and realized that they had won this DARPA Phase 1 award with Honeywell to work on development of the ICME framework. I thought whoa Honeywell is working with these guys. I promptly purchased more shares. I continued to hold into as the year changed and the SGLB raised money with those additional 100million outstanding shares. The pps went down some and I purchased some more shares. My due diligience continued and I began to understand the demand for additive manufacturing was increasing and many surveys were showing that companies were planning to invest or continue to invest in AM.
The point is that the more DD and the longer the SGLB story progressed the better the Sigma Labs has looked. The DARPA Phase 2 win with Honeywell and working with America Makes was further confirmation of SGLB's PrintRite3D product. I began to understand that GE Aviation is and will be the first company in the world to mass produce AM parts starting with the fuel nozzle. I also began to understand that PrintRite3D was designed to be that thrid party validator for rapid qualification of parts. I understood that PrintRite3D would only take off when companies were ready to mass produce AM parts.
Here's what I like about where SGLB is:
1) The time of mass producing of AM parts is a lot closer now that it was three years ago. We see Airbus and Boeing are starting to transition thier assemlby lines and personnel to produce thier Airbus neo 380 and 737 MAX planes; thus, Safran will be ramping up accordingly to getthose LEAP engines produced. I anticipated 2017 will be the year for SGLB production run contracts with GE.
2) SGLB's investor Rockville asked SGLB to work to uplist in 24 months back in 2014 from my memory. This year Mark Cola has stated that the purpose of the R/S was to get them in the positon to Uplist to a Major Market. Let's no forget the Gilbert Good of Western International and Holden Lewis of Oppenheimer both called into quarter conference calls last year. Here's what Gilbert Good said:

Good morning and thank you for taking my call. So, this question really is kind of off in a different direction. As an investor, I recognize that your development stage company and you guys are doing a great job of bringing the company along, but as an investment advisor, one of the things that I look at is that in order for me to be able to solicit the shares to other of my clients, the stock has to be really priced so that it falls into the NASDAQ system so that it could be followed by analysts and, you know, we could promote the shares and I wonder if you have any thoughts as to how you might achieve that level at some point in the future?



Many of us investors have been holding for a number of years with the past 2.5 years on a downward pps trend. I'm personally down 64 percent from my average today. I'm not happy with the pps being where it is; however, I am happy with SGLB's connections. SGLB has it's PrintRite3D with powerhouses GE, Honeywell, Aerojet Rockdyne, Additive Industries, Trumpf, EWI and Spartacus 3D. That's a heck of a lot better than where they were in 2013 when I first invested. Sigma Labs is on the verge of uplisting to a major market where stock analysts who influence clients with billions will most likely recommend SGLB when they uplist. I understand that some investors will sell when their investment shows a 10 percent loss or more. There are other opportunities out there. I'm here because I strongly believe that SGLB's pps is ready to turn the corner with the uplisting and the additional business that I forsee lining up for years to come. I'm not selling a single share as I understand take SGLB will be primed to takeoff and the potential of the pps uptrend IMHO will be better than most upon uplist. Good Luck Longs
