I think I see what you mean. KBLB needs to protect their products and processes from ‘sales’ and ‘revenue’ and ‘market interest.’
What better way to protect themselves from all of the evils of a successful business than to not produce any silk in the first place. Genius, when you think about it. If you don’t make it, no one can steal it.
When KBLB says they have produced enough silk for the ‘first launch’ of Spydasilk, that does not mean they have produced all of the silk needed for the first year of Spydasilk sales. No no no no no. Just the first launch. A few blended Spydasilk hoodies or a few blended ties. Something that says, “Yeah, we are where Spiber was five years ago. Almost.”
KBLB will devote nearly all of the silk that it produces in 2023 to fulfilling the first year of the contract. The company may send out a few more tiny samples to some possible partners. It is uncertain whether or not KBLB will be able to produce the contractual amount of silk for the first year of effort in 2023. They may still be shipping silk to Kings next year for the ‘first year’ of effort.
I don’t think anyone is expecting revenue for the Q4 2022 financial statement. We may see something for the current quarter when it arrives in mid-May. We will also learn about the initial launch of Spydasilk when ‘coming soon’ happens.
Until that happens, the mysterious secrets that KBLB needs to protect from investors and customers, all of whom hope to exploit KBLB mercilessly by buying products and shares of stock, will remain safe.
