I see this guy is leaving Synsense after quite some time. He only follows about a dozen companies on LinkedIn, Brainchip being one of them. Be interesting to see if he turns up here.

Probably doesn’t need that question mark.

Promising words from Sean. I like it.

 

[DK6161]

Spoke too soon. We are back to 20 cents

 

[Iseki]

A couple of years back Sean Hehir made a dsmissive statement that Akida 1000 should be seen as an early reference chip and the focus was going be on the later, more developed versions.

Since then Akida 1000, in chip form, has made it into Edge boxes, gone into space and looks like being our major income stream, It also goes out to universities, as chips alone or on sample boards. Good that we made a few chips up front.

Version 1500, taped out a while back, for 22nm, seems to have sunk without trace.

Version 2000 will not be made as a chip, probably because it is very expensive to make, perhaps beyond Brainchip’s resources. So we wait for potential users to be so attracted by its capability that they will fund the manufacture of their own chips, with our IP. And we wait and wait. Meanwhile the peloton closes in.

Not sure this all adds up to a convincing corporate strategy. There is a good case for physical chips to be available for early investigators and researchers, particularly if universities are seen as important cradles of understanding the full possibilities of AKIDA.

Good points. I wonder if the cost making the Akida 2000 version couldn't be offset by the increased cost (and time) of the selling IP only. i.e. offset by the increased cost of marketing, the increased time we're carrying debt, the cost of capital raising, the slide in the SP etc

Seems like some people don’t like the capital call notice… I’m sure they will find a better investment in Canada and invest their 200 dollars more promising

Why do we need extra money for ML programmers when no one has signed a license agreement? How odd. Still, you have to admire their chutzpa a month and a half before the strike vote.

I think many posters are carrying a paper loss which they don't want to realize. Be kind.

 

[Mccabe84]

Another capital call maybe No big money coming in anytime soon.. makes you wonder if you should vote in favour of there remuneration packages

 

[7für7]

The point is that it's an agreement that comes with obligations. Yes, the timing is unfavorable before the meeting. But let's see what happens until then. That's why selling doesn't make sense. Sellers cause a lower price and then say... "oh man.. the price is going lower" pretty contradictory the actions and the cause

 

[Newk R]

Hmmmmm...One paragraph detailing the reasons and use of the capital call funds.
I'm sorry, but I would have expected a more detailed overview than this. I mean, this is a price sensitive announcement and we get one paragraph. The market has reacted accordingly.
I don't have a problem with the call itself, but when the market sees the lack of effort and detail in the announcement itself, then we can expect the worst.
Not good enough Sean......No way near good enough. I expect my investment to be treated with a little more respect.

“The proceeds raised from the capital call will be used to solidify our go-to-market capabilities by
augmenting our machine learning personnel and solution architects who are necessary to support
accelerating market adoption of the Akida 2.0 IP offerings,” said BrainChip CEO Sean Hehir. “The
company will also bolster the CTO function, enabling radical innovation required to bring large
language models, multi-modal operation and other state of art AI to the edge and ensure we
remain the industry leaders in hyper-efficient Edge AI”

Opaque language. To me, it sounds like the money will go to a third party rather than hiring more staff.
