My posts are spot on and always reflect the accuracy of what LQMT states and not that of anyone else who may lack understanding of an investment or the abilities of a material to generate realistic revenues now or in the future.
From reading private reports and not public reports are there any data backing up any sound bites of $trillions of dollars of revenues globally from LQMT’s ip or globally from all other sources of BMG/Amorphous metals, let alone $billions in the short term future. Meaning within the next ten years or more. Meaning currently BMG/amorphous metals currently generated approximately $50 million worldwide as of 2023.
Anyone implying those higher numbers now or down the road for LQMT investors, are either dreaming in a light year where all existing investors have passed onto their reward from mortality. Or are simply hyping, grossly exaggerating or have no clues between investing to earn a profit in LQMT or how a new material trying to enter the market realistically becomes adopted.
Our bulk amorphous alloy technology is still at an early stage of commercialization relative to many other materials.
Read on….source LQMT:
“Our bulk amorphous alloy technology is a relatively new technology as compared to many other material technologies, such as plastics and widely-used high-performance crystalline alloys. Historically, the successful commercialization of a new material technology has required the persistent improvement and refining of the technology over a sometimes lengthy period of time. Accordingly, we believe that our company’s future success will be dependent on our ability to continue expanding and improving our technology platform by, among other things, constantly refining and improving our processes, optimizing our existing amorphous alloy compositions for various applications, and developing and improving new bulk amorphous alloy compositions. Our failure to further expand our technology base could limit our growth opportunities and hamper our commercialization efforts.
Future advances in materials science could render Liquidmetal alloys obsolete.
Academic institutions and business enterprises frequently engage in the research and testing of new materials, including alloys and plastics. Advances in materials science could lead to new materials that have a more favorable combination of performance, processing, and cost characteristics than our alloys. The future development of any such new materials could render our alloys obsolete and unmarketable or may impair our ability to compete effectively.”
Again the source for the above in quotes is from LQMT.
Like I said my posts are spot on from what I observed. And amazingly from knowing very little. My opinions have been remarkably spot on and fair.
Now let’s look realistically at the current state of LQMT as it compares to the current revenue state of BMG/Amorphous metals revenue growth worldwide and projected (theorized) growth as derived from private reports. (Much of it if one takes the time can be found publicly.)
To simplify the picture I’m rounding off the numbers so that everyone has a clear picture of what it truly means to be invested in LQMT as a growth investment to earn money as supposed to be invested in the future theories of a new material’s ability to possibly be adopted by the markets. It’s very easy to be confused by the two into thinking they are one and the same. They are not. Let no one confuse or entice you with visions of $$$$ that simply do not exist now or down the road. The reality is what exists by what LQMT reports always and there ability to grow now and perhaps next year and not 20 years from now when you might be dead. At least that is why I invested over 20 years ago. Thinking LQMT might be successful enough to have solid growth YOY and not solid declining growth YOY. Or intermittent growth YOY.
Globally revenues from around the world in BMG/amorphous metals totaled approximately $50 million dollars. That means businesses involved are making money. Maybe not profitable but making money and not all trade publicly. And some that do trade publicly you are prohibited from investing in. In fact to protect clients. There are brokerage firms that prohibit their clients from investing in many publicly traded stocks to protect their clients from losses.
Now according to last year’s LQMT 10k. LQMT received revenues of $383 thousand dollars. Rounding every thing off. LQMT’s share of the global pie is not 50%, not 10%, not 5%, not even 1%. The LQMT share of those millions of dollars in global revenues is 3/4’s of 1%! That’s it. Not billions or trillions.
A few of the other known players are:
Heraeus Holding
Eutectix LLC
Hitachi Metals, Ltd.
Supercool Metals
Dongguan Yihao Metal Material Technology Co., Ltd.
PX Group
Glassimetal Technology, Inc.
Exmet Amorphous Technology AB
Zhaojing Technology Co., Ltd.
Qingdao Yunlu Advanced Materials Technology Co., Ltd
There are many more.
Not all are listed.
What does this mean Researchfyi?
It means statistically or hypothetically if everything remains the same and we all are betting it doesn’t. It means global revenues would have to triple beyond the forecasted 15% to 30% expected growth rate for LQMT to gross over just $1 million dollars! Not profit, but gross!
In other words it would take the global growth in BMG/Amorphous metals to grow five times faster than the projected growth rate to reach just a billion dollars in revenues worldwide in which case LQMT’s slice of the pie would by then be
$7.5 million dollars.
Now realistically if we/I in LQMT wait for the real estimated year for that to happen, it won’t happen until the year 2037. Not a billion dollars and definitely not a trillion dollars unless you’ve gathered around the ganja tree this year for Christmas as I pointed out in an earlier post.
Many of the reports project a quarter of a billion worldwide by 2031.
So based on the theory of la la land about understanding or not understanding growth in the world of pioneers both you and your children would long be gone before any $$$ is made. Now to me that sounds obscene and insulting. But if correct a realistic outcome.
Take it from LQMT: “Our growth depends upon our ability to retain and attract a sufficient number of qualified employees.
Our business is based upon the commercialization of a new and unique materials technology. Our future growth and success will depend in part on our ability to retain key members of our management and engineering staff, who are familiar with this technology and the potential applications and markets for it. We do not have “key man” or similar insurance on any of the key members of our management and engineering staff. If we lose their services or the services of other key personnel, our financial results or business prospects may be harmed. Additionally, our future growth and success will depend in part on our ability to attract, train, and retain scientific engineering, manufacturing, sales, marketing, and management personnel. We cannot be certain that we will be able to attract and retain the personnel necessary to manage our operations effectively. Competition for experienced executives and engineers from numerous companies and academic and other research institutions may limit our ability to hire or retain personnel on acceptable terms. In addition, many of the companies with which we compete for experienced personnel have greater financial and other resources than we do. Moreover, the employment of otherwise highly qualified non-U.S. citizens may be restricted by applicable immigration laws.”
In essence truth be known most of the knowledge in amorphous metals in use today are in Asia and not the USA. Not that the U.S. government is behind. It’s just that the government sector doesn’t always share what they know with the public sector until something new comes along to replace the old material.
So knowing all of this. One might ask if it’s going to take a gazillion years for the new material to become adopted in such a manner as to insure mucho dinero $$$$$$$. Why in the hell would an executive buy a million shares today just to drop dead? And why in the hell would departing executives of age and existing ones accept worthless stock options to do the same?
The answers are simple. And the departing executive IMO, who explained it best was BB in his departing letter from Christmas 2020.
Read it. If you can’t find it, I’ll post a link.
The truth is all in LQMT do not have to wait for the material to be adopted in large numbers to earn money from a dice rolling penny stock like LQMT. It can be done just as well with much smaller numbers to rocket up the share price.
And from this being under a dime, it will take even less.
If a picture and an insider purchase can double the share price in a pop. Imagine what a real contract will do, when announced! It’s almost 24 months now without any new announcements of one.
I just post what I’ve observed regarding LQMT. So far I’ve been spot on. My apologies, it bugs me too.
I don’t bash, I don’t hype. I know, it’s boring. Reality sucks sometimes.
To all, thank you for reading my posts whether you agree with or disagree with them.
As always my opinions are alway's worth less than the price of a LQMT share.
As for pioneering. I think LL is doing a great job.
Good luck to all in LQMT.
Wish TC luck.
If anyone truly understands what I have just posted they would know that all LQMT has to do is grab a bigger slice of the existing pie now to rocket up to the moon. All need not wait a decade or two.
