Probably Financial fourth quarter, so Jan-April 2017. Still good news though.

Interesting snippet here. Update from Wah Hong 7 days ago.... So mass production in the 4 quarter .... hang on that's now isn't it?




(Nasdaq: HUAH), a leading provider of nanomaterials and nanocomposites, today announced that it has been working with Nanoco Technologies Limited (Nanoco), a UK-based cadmium-free quantum dot and nanomaterials manufacturer. The Cd-free quantum dots film produced by Nanoco and the high-precision film processing technology of Huahong were used to fabricate Cd-free quantum dots film to improve the color saturation of the display. It is expected that Cd-free quantum dots film will be widely used in high resolution 4K, 8K LCD TV and other products, the fastest in the fourth quarter will be mass production shipments.

The company are welcome to pursue me. I have information and I here rumours. I have my ear close to the ground. It's called sound due diligence before making an investment decision. If the company can't keep things in-house it is they who should be hauled over the coals.

My information could be wrong of course. If it is, will Nanoco reimburse my short losses after they've taken me to court. NO. So why don't you pipe down.

And another thing, my info is obviously better than the Nanoco cannon fodder investors that frequent these boards. I've called this right all along. And I will be right again!

slip,

That 1.2 million was just from Wah Hong. It was a 7 year contract which explains the accounting change. ME has said the up front payment from Merck is 'large'. So I reckon we've seen a cash injection of around 5 million.

Dow already an income stream, but they'll need to grow quickly to supply LG's new range of TV's, never mind Samsung. Runcorn moved to 24 hour production mid August.

May be cash will be needed in Jan but what news will have been made public by then...

[bagpuss67] 09/10/2016 10:03

Do we really collectively believe that slippy is so stupid as to genuinely be receiving inside information that is clearly price sensitive and to be openly admitting to actively trading on the back of it? I assume that Nano PR monitor this board or other Nano employees. Anyway, just posting this and the allegations of prostitutes and drugs is serious enough. Do your company a favour and bring slippy to the attention of your company secretary and ask him or her to investigate it with advfn and report it to the FCA.

They may have enough money to last 12 months but they can't wait until then to initiate fundraising.

Incidentally, I've been informed that it is unlikely they will press the button on fundraising until early next year.

So it looks like this will be a pure ramping exercise.

[mr.oz] 09/10/2016 09:49

I would be happy to hear something in between the two scenarios outlined

[kuss1] 09/10/2016 09:40

slip,

Think I prefer:

Dow's $100 million Qdot factory is now complete and paying increasing royalties in its supply of dots to LG who are launching a new range of Qd TVs in a few months.

Runcorn is now producing large volumes of Qdots on a 24-hour rota to supply Wah Hong and Merck.

Wah Hong has completed its manufacturing set up and is moving to volume supply of film with Nano's dots.

Merck anticipates building a new factory early in the new year to supply their clients.

An upfront payment from Wah Hong was received in the last financial year of 1.2 million. This was a 7 year contract with the payments correctly accounted for. Merck's much larger payment has now been received.

Cash is sufficient for more than a year.

The quantum dot market for display is growing by 100% per year.

Our other business areas have made good progress.

Not bad for a tiny company up north...

[3raymo] 09/10/2016 09:30

Have to say I agree with FOS. It's the usual scenario...if they have anything of significance to report, they have to do so.

I'm expecting this will drop once again to sub 50 and will pick up nearer CES. Although some actual news, like supplying Samsung for example, would go down a treat!

Do you really need to see the webcast on 11th???

I can tell you right here and now what's going to be said.

Things are progressing well, samples are being sent out, Runcorn is scaling up nicely, Merck see endless possibilities. Lighting could explode (excuse pun) Dow are on the brink of taking substantial orders for their factory and forsee the commencement of full production of significant volume.

Hansol and Wah may press the button in manufacturing using Nanoco's award winning cadmium free dots any day.

The company will say that since the change in business model they are literally inundated with enquiries and they are fully stretched. Indeed everything could not be better.

" We feel that the company has enough funds to see it through to its medium term goals. However, we feel that it is only prudent to prepare for a fundraising in order to guarantee we fulfill are fiduciary duties.

I mean anything less would be irresponsible. Lol


Now give us your money chumps.

slippy does get tedious after a while
15 years ago the research team were assembled to develop cfqd.
it has taken 15 years to get to commercial viability.
It is not a turn key operation. The same logic can be
applied to the other avenues they are following
medical solar etc. To demand instant results is fantasy.

FOS - I DO realize that this may be years away! Hence I am REAL.

I do find it interesting that there are more than just one iron in the fire and that there are some rather big companies "supporting" NANO. Tuesday will be very interesting. Hopefully we will get some clarity, although like you, I am not so trustworthy of the management AT THE MOMENT. I hope my faith will be rewarded on 11th or shortly after. As I said I have taken some profits on my top-ups along the way but am still down. At least I reduced my exposure for the time-being. I just cannot see the doom and gloom you are forecasting though, and I don't think I am quite a "looking into the headlights of an oncoming vehicle" just yet.

Medical imaging is years away mate. Do you u freestanding how long it takes in R&D marketing ,trials , committee decisions from healthcare providers , order process, supplly and implementation if such equipment?? Have you??

With Nanoco's cash burn, they will be dead and buried long before your dreams have any chance if showing through.

Get real.

Why can't NANO put stuff like this link from one of their tweets onto their dead (almost) blog?

The Cancer Surgeon’s Latest Tool: Quantum Dots

Now used to brighten displays, quantum dots could one day guide a surgeon’s hand


My colleagues and I at Nanoco Technologies, in Manchester, England, have been working with a team of researchers led by Sandy MacRobert at University College London to explore quantum-dot technology for various medical treatments. While there are many exciting possibilities to be explored, the most important one we’re pursuing aims to help delineate malignant tumors and the pathways along which they spread, which could improve the safety and effectiveness of cancer surgery.

This article appears in the October 2016 print issue as “Fighting Cancer With Quantum Dots.”

About the Author
Imad Naasani is chief technology officer, life sciences for Nanoco Technologies, in Manchester, England, a maker of quantum dots.

Perhaps they should scan and show that print version article on the blog page? Just a thought if you are trying to do your job NANO PR department!

Whum,Goose IPA ,Goose Hunkers ale,Mad Goose,is another good seller,let's hope the namesake doesn't appear here soon,We already have one irritating poster on here.

[kuss1] 08/10/2016 22:14

Price doubled from 37p. On no news really

Why haven't Dow closed down their factory. Why do they continue spending? Why are Merck interested in failure?

LG new line of Qdot TV's coming soon is why ...

Let's see what the update on Tues says.

[whum] 08/10/2016 22:05

syd I only consume quality ale, cost is not the criterion.

[friendofslippery] 08/10/2016 21:28

In fact we are at around a third of price of the last shakedown.

[friendofslippery] 08/10/2016 21:22

SP less than half the price of the last investor shakedown only 18 months ago.

[kuss1] 08/10/2016 21:16

Sciences takes time ... and the share price still 50% up on the last set of positives...

[friendofslippery] 08/10/2016 21:11

?????

I will tell you why. The market is far from convinced. And guess what? So am I.

[friendofslippery] 08/10/2016 21:04

Then why is the share price a fraction of the cost of before all these so called positives occurred¿????????

[kuss1] 08/10/2016 20:59

slip .... all deals are bits of paper. Those upfront fees were paid. Dow has built its factory at a significant cost. 4 million Qdot TV's sold this year. 10 million next year.
