Liquidmetal Technologies Inc (LQMT)

[joshuaeyu]

LQMT decided to spend money and associated risk to certify LM106c.

Reasons can be follows:

1. There is no immediate short term revenue for medical market.
2. There is however a long term medical market and/or committed revenue.
3. LM106c prototyped has been form/fit/function approved by potential customer.
4. Volume of the (medical market + other unknown market) is bigger than Lake Forest can EVER handle.
5. Size of that market is about 25 machines worth. 90 (reported by LMQT) - 65 (reported by Eon).
6. Materion failed to comply with pricing need.
7. LQMT and/or YiHao is not about to buy 50 Engel machines (to match size never mind thruput of Eon machines).
8. There is absolutely no reason to carry and support two alloys and two machines if there is no short term significant return. Lugee call the bluff and Hulck Hogan choke.
