He’s not paid by ika, lol
By all accounts a very successful Pvte investor (pfolio up over 50x since 2007)
He bought IKA at Xmas (as rogk sold 😜)

Dartboard, If you have such low regard for Ilika board then why invest your money here?
Unbelievable the rubbish that is written here. All in vain to bring the price down.
Understand Ilika is a solid company run by very snart people.

Do we know if IKA are paying this guy to ramp the stock? Pretty sure companies pay to go on his podcast... Happy if it's all independent, but would be a bad look on management if they are pushing this in any way.

Thanks Shstt1, a good find, Rogk should watch it.

Butt hurt much Rogk?

[mauricemonkey] 07/1/2021 21:37

Indeed. Closed at 240 ish on the Nasdaq otc, hopefully a good open tomorrow

I think it's safe to say that no one here knows what we need to know. We haven't read the agreements they have with the 3 Goliath partners, we don't know what these 15 patents are for (beyond SSB) and how much they protect the IP or how unique they are, whether Toyota are going to use the 3 joint patents and therefore pay IKA for them, ... Hopefully there's at least a small amount of detail on some of this next week.

[mauricemonkey] 07/1/2021 20:21

Toyota was a long time ago, they’re currently developing with other partners, such as JLR.

robert - you only posted since November so I find it hard to believe you read/listened to all the interviews over 18 months, but I'm a nice guy so I'll take your word for it :)

However, it has to be said that what you did do is predict a revaluation here as a result of the QS ipo, for which, congratulations, good spot.

But it doesn't change the development/production/marketing situation at Ilika, it's momentum/bubble feeding.

hb - you can't reverse engineer the production method from a prototype, so the only such fear would be for the composition of the materials (assuming they have no ip in packaging/encapsulation etc). But that could easily be protected by patent, so why not?

Stereax is tiny, but where's the project that repackages them to usable sizes? That seems to me to be a very soluble problem - I have a credit card sized SSD with 500GB on it! - so why not have a (visible) team working on it? Too expensive? So how does the cost come down? Not by small-scale production from Ilika that's for sure.

maurice,
That was a long time ago.

It’s widely acknowledged that Greed and Fear drives market fluctuations and poor old RogK (self professed “Long term holder”) sold out @ £1.20 and is kicking himself for it..

Anyone who’s even skimmed a chartist’s book (I’ve spent 20 years staring at stock & forex charts) can see the bullish flag forming here, giving us a 67% to 73% chance of the next move (around results) being violently upwards.

As of today RogK has his arm outstretched and thinks he can get back onboard around where he sold out... As of next week (Probability dictates) the share price will be a mere spec on the horizon, sat in the passenger seat of a Ferrari with RogK choking on it’s exhaust fumes (and waving his fist).

Keep your chin up :0)

[mauricemonkey] 07/1/2021 19:12

Ok, so happy to be schooled that the Goliath batteries will be useable in other applications.
One thing worth remembering is that Goliath isn’t being developed by IKA on their own, they have several automotive partners, who, if anything like the Toyota partnership, will jointly hold rights to any technical developments.

[horneblower] 07/1/2021 19:04

A rose by any other name would smell as sweet.

[shstt1] 07/1/2021 19:00

The sad truth is that a couple of weeks ago Rogk was “ramping”; this as much as he could (as if he thought what he types here is gonna make a difference lol) and has deleted those posts. For someone who has spent seven yrs here, to sell on 22/12 was probably his worst ever decision . Maybe Rog’d would be more appropriate name.
My advice to you rog, accept your decision and move on. Don’t let the bitterness you exhibit consume you. You wanted the price to rise and you sold to someone who might have been influenced by your typed word (might have been me lol) so don’t be bitter (you have given someone else much joy), move on or Your immune system will weaken and it’s not a good time for that to happen mate.
Since you started today the price just rose again 10% ( rose? )

[horneblower] 07/1/2021 18:41

Hmm. I don't think they dare put it out for testing...not because it may not work, but because the IP is not protected imo.

Stereax seems to have IP protection but it is just so damn tiny.

[robertspc1] 07/1/2021 18:39

Have listened to the CEO in numerous interviews over the last 18 months or so. He has always said consumer electronics applications for Goliath will come before EV's. Makes sense, builds on Stereax experience and much quicker to get mfr approvals etc than for EV's. CEO is cautious guy and won't get carried away by the EV hype. IKA remains a long term play on medtech, consumer electronics and then potentially EV'sthen

[supernumerary] 07/1/2021 18:37

I think they have to invest in Stereax because no-one else will. They used to say someone else would do the production, but it's not worked out like that, so Ilika is having to pay.

They could abandon Stereax, but presumably they've got some potential customers lined up, so expect to have at least some sales from the outset. And it would send out a dreadful message to the market, so I think we can safely assume it won't happen.

If they can make Goliath, they can make and sell it in portable devices long before they can in cars, but it's been quite a while since they even mentioned such applications. It doesn't happen by accident - they need to find a partner, get a spec, start building the device, put it to real-world test. A lot of that can happen before the battery is finally working, but I see no sign of it.

I don't think the present share price reflects the risk here, but that's only my opinion; clearly others disagree :)

[horneblower] 07/1/2021 18:08

super,
I don't think they are sidelining anything. If Goliath works, it will work at many sizes, including hairdriers.

But does Goliath work?

The spike in the share price gives no information as it is pure speculation. It may rocket further but until we get some (any) info from the company it is all based on hot air.

The fact that they chose to put most of their funding towards Stereax rather than Goliath might be a clue?

[supernumerary] 07/1/2021 17:32

I sort of see the theory, but it seems to me it would be easier to make one battery for a handset or hair dryer than to make a hundred or more for a car. It's also a lot easier to get it to market - putting a major component in a car is years of work. Given that there are markets for both, why not start with the easier task?
