I don't think Lebby has any intention of being bought out. His entire thought train is how to build and grow the company. He's a chart guru and vision enthusiast. He loves planning paths and growth. He relishes "truly exciting" partnerships. He loves comparing our technology to commercial limit of "the pack". He delights in being "really excited" that they are able to "max out" the industries measuring equipment.
Dr. Lebby is just plain enjoyable to watch.
He plans on applying polymers to devices, stand alone pics with ten year schedules and tangent business streams like LIDAR and displays.
I see a CEO who knows and is excited that he's in charge of the most dynamic and disruptive technology in years. BTW, he used "disruptive" on the ASM presentation. He's driving a Ferrari right now and is enjoying the hell out of it.
He's energetic, organized, diplomatic and knows exactly what he wants and how to get there. He saw what we are just now seeing, several years ago. The excitement we all see on this board since the ASM has been manifest by his confidence for quite some time.
IMO, Dr. Lebby has become a King Maker.
He can determine the future success or failure of some large international conglomerates by simply determining if they will or won't be our partner. We're a very small company but our technology is being revealed as world changing.
IMO, it would take an enormous offer to have him give all this up.
