Jim asked the question so I will respond with my humble opinion.
Reality is we only have just a bit over 4 million shares of the 10 million fully diliuted shares that are in the float. Of that 4 million roughly 55 to 60% of those shares are owned by 4 institutions who frankly can't or are NOT interested in selling. Even if only one was they realize now is NOT the time to sell much. The remaining 1.8 million shares is made up the real float. Some of these are holders long term so what we are witnessing currently is a large demand for this comapny's shares with little room to go but up! The shares traded have reflected a large amount of day trading and profit taking from the MMs and DTs. They will always be around.
Here is the other reality. The industry now knows what a few of us have known for a while. This company's technology is the BEST in the industry. Better than ITO, better than ATMEL better than In-Cell from Apple and we truly have the best technology. With the portfolio of patents and a Chairman, Bernie Marren, who is a seasoned legal patent corporate expert we now are sought after by many other companies. Rumors abound of this company or that wanting to buy us, etc. will fuel the demand for shares. The Shorts will beware because ANY day the other news items of other relationships could send them for big cover.
Now the final reality.....a $15 billion dollar market! Impressive enough yet we have the very best technology and everyone wants it to compete. Industry Insiders are just starting to buy this company's stock so we will see a continuation of strong support until more news breaks.
Frankly, the shares are drying up quickly.
Lastly, if UniPixel penetrated just 5% of the market this year we would be looking at $800 million in revenues. A net profit of $200 plus million would be in order with a fully diluted share count of 10 million currently with a max of roughly 11 million by then. Say a $15 per share profit would land us in the multiple split phase yet would be around $300 plus per share valuation.
And politely and carefully I close with this.......don't forget about DiamondGuard and it's $1 billion dollar market as well. Let the games begin!
