29/6/2019 09:17 | Pico, you have put me in a quandry. ;-) Given the yeeeeears of R&D, I would say now is the time to harvest returns on past R&D, otherwise it has no value as it becomes outdated over time, they need to realise the returns with solid sales, with a price to match the supposed limited supply and quality. But then any company has to continue R&D to stay ahead of the competition, and R&D is probably a bottomless pit in terms of what budget is sensible. So that leaves a big grey area of, for every pound in profit, after overheads etc, how much do you plough in to each of: 1) Expanding plant/staff for sales production. 2) Continued R&D 3) Shareholder returns/divs Given present state of play, in terms of IQE development phases AND world economy/politics, I think we need to see some solid sales volumes, as my limited understanding is that the products are good for the incoming technology that is either being delayed or lower in volume than would other be the case without floppy top.

29/6/2019 09:05 | Courtesy of this morning's BBC News website: "Has the Huawei dispute been resolved?The clampdown on dealing with Huawei has been a high profile part of the wider trade conflict between the US and China. Mr Trump's decision to allow US companies to continue to sell to the Chinese technology firm is being seen as a substantial concession to the Chinese. The US president is reversing a US ban imposed last month on Huawei buying US goods without a licence - including from Google, which is crucial to many of the Chinese firm's products."This could hopefully see a significant rise in the share price Monday morning with buyers seeing extraordinary value at 60p. | diplomat65 | |
29/6/2019 08:58 | They say no such thing as bad publicity, hopefully we’ll be getting some of the good stuff too on Monday !! IQE’s name must surely be getting better known nowadays.. | beermat1 | |
29/6/2019 08:50 | If the SC market is simply playing catch-up now then there is presumably no reason to expect revenue for IQE to reduce from the original budgeted figures. After all they need the cash flow to finance their R & D budget. All systems go for Lumentum again ! It will be interesting to see if more production orders come in for the NIL dfb edge emitters especially as the MA facility now has more capacity. The Macom partner..Global foundries is producing 300mm lnP wafers as Macom now is purely a merchant. Will IQE acquire 300mm reactors in order to do the same as apparently this field of work is extremely profitable? The CEO of Macom called it a ‘goldmine̵ | picobird | |
29/6/2019 07:51 | US firms can continue selling to Huawei - should help SP | davemac3 | |
28/6/2019 15:13 | However it makes you wonder why they probably voted against the Directors pay scheme | dexter5 | |
28/6/2019 14:40 | Maybe they realise they are stuck with IQE for a while, so might as well make some interest on the side. | 1mthead | |
28/6/2019 14:18 | So over the last year TRP have increased their holding by 3.5%. They have used the shorters to gain these shares at much lower prices. They are definitely accumulating on the back of the shorters wishing to bring the price down. Some game going on here. | jimboyce | |
28/6/2019 10:43 | It would have to rise to double the last gain. Not a bad gamble. Initial Short 120. Drips to 45p. Buy shares at 45p. Sell at 60p making about 30% hoping for the price to drop, but if it doesn't then still in (second level) profit up to 75p. Worth a gamble. However not for me. | croquetman | |
28/6/2019 09:58 | err not quite they could sell and watch the price rise and have to buy back at higher prices at a loss Its a mugs game this ... | pal44 | |
28/6/2019 08:22 | Lpavlou - interesting thought on the shorters. They buy (hopefully) at the bottom and don't close out, giving them the option to dump more on the market to try and bring the price back down again to buy back in again. Win Win!. Gosh. Is it that easy to make money as a shorter? | croquetman | |
27/6/2019 19:25 | Alas, Via a mixture of forced closings and my decision to close open positions and selling physical stock, I no longer have any position here. My reasoning being I don't believe the problems in the wireless division are wholly down to Huwai. I think there has been a more dramatic slowdown as OEMs reduce inventory levels. I also think we have been hit hard by Macom cancelling orders too. This was a dire statement and I fear it won't be the last. I am concerned about the capes and the need to borrow just to fund a reduced capex, when sales should be funding the future capex growth. We wrote off 2018 when Apple reduced their iPhone orders and we've just written off 2019 and H1 2020. I personally think there will be another fund raising which will be much harder to get away this time. The fact they had a 3m guide difference on sales for H1 with only a week to go to the end of that period, tells me they are reliant on last minute purchases which may or may not come through. With regards to the short positions, I believe the majority of shorted have purchased shares in the market on Friday and are holding them rather than close out. I am very surprised the share price has received back to 60p so quickly and that influenced my decision making. Unfortunately I've lost the decent money I made on the way up, but thats what can happen when you make good or poor investment decisions. I'll continue to monitor and participate when I have something to add and would buy in again when I can be certain some of the risks have been mitigated. | lpavlou | |
27/6/2019 18:52 | Tomduck27 Jun '19 - 18:33 - 26945 of 26945 0 0 1 "I think the shorts will regret not closing at 43-45p they had the perfect storm from £1.80 down to there, but this is not Debenhams, Carillion, Thomas Cook.Let’s see..." -End- You're 'possibly' a lot smarter than they are Tom. Fancy them not thinking of that? | regasclockwork | |
27/6/2019 17:33 | I think the shorts will regret not closing at 43-45p they had the perfect storm from £1.80 down to there, but this is not Debenhams, Carillion, Thomas Cook. Let’s see... | tomduck | |
27/6/2019 17:24 | Well there's a cheery thought coolhandfluke. Having nosed around the FCA's short selling regulation (SSR) page, they state "You should notify us of your positions by 3.30pm on the trading day after the day the position was reached. All calculations should be made as at midnight on the trading day the position was reached." So it looks as though none of the previous shorters with over 0.5% reduced by more than 0.1% following Friday's share price drop. Or am I missing something? | lord loads of lolly | |
27/6/2019 17:16 | I guess shorters are waiting for IQE to go bust. I still can't fathom what the lender of shares gets though. | coolhandfluke | |
27/6/2019 16:59 | I think they have to report their position. | 1mthead | |
27/6/2019 16:45 | Potential27 Jun '19 - 15:16 - 26925 of 26926 "Sold my 50k I bought at 45p and cashed my 26457.32p profit - good luck to all ..." -End- Hi potential, I'm impressed! But, does that 'profit' include your initial stake of £22,500? I have nothing like that to 'boast' about unfortunately. I did sell some at 60p [not recently]. That's the good news, but the bad news is that I bought that batch for 157p. Whether I was 'daft' to do that, only time will tell. GLA! EDIT: Sorry chaps, came in from a hard hour of pruning in the garden and put pen to paper before catching up on posts. Well, at least our maths makes more sense than pot's. 'Must try harder' a phrase which often appeared on my old school reports. | regasclockwork | |
27/6/2019 16:27 | Changing tack, is anyone else a bit surprised (& concerned) that the notified short positions haven't reduced very much? I thought they'd dip significantly following the recent share price drop. But the only change currently shown is Blackrock - from 0.60% to 0.42%. | lord loads of lolly | |
27/6/2019 16:22 | potential - sorry, but assuming you bought & sold recently, your maths is just wrong. Ignoring fees, if you bought 50,000 shares @ £0.45, that would have cost you £22500.00. To make a profit on that of £26457.32, you'd have needed to sell the shares at 97.91p each. And they haven't been that high any time since dipping to their recent 45p level. | lord loads of lolly | |
27/6/2019 16:17 | Perhaps you forgot that it cost 22,500 to buy and that needs deducting If you made 26 k profit the price must have been up over 100% sf some point Which it wasn't. But hey you made some money on iqe. Not many can say that ffs | thereptile | |
27/6/2019 16:13 | I worked out how he did it.... he sold the 50,000 shares (bought at 0.45) at a price of 0.529 each. :-) | jamesrowe |
