I have quite a few questions in my inbox at the moment. I can not respond as I am limited to a daily quantity at the moment. One of the questions was how I came about with exponential yearly sales numbers (see previous post). We used some proprietary methods from our company that I can not discuss here. However, we did take some industry comparables for new product launches, some factors from the hardware side, we also applied numerical factors from historics from the semiconductor industry. Finally, and sorry to be crass here and unscientific, but we just thought the next 5 years are going to be stunning in sales for POET, developments, earnings, share price and not necessarily last, global exposure.

Another person asked how we could justify the 5 year price. So if you go back to the history of Intel, and stock splits I believe some kind soul had already posted here, and if you research the semiconductor industry giants, you will find some exponential constants. With that data and the major fact that the company will want a liquid entity and not want $100 shares, we also built in forward splits over the next five years at the rate of one per year and depending on sales growth those forward splits ran from 1-5 through to 1-10. Then the mania factor has to be considered as well.

A third person asked why we picked a 5 year window starting in 2015. The fact is, it could be any 5 year start up period. But we felt that the company will come through with at least one if not two deals for revenue generation before years end. This will also add to the mania of the POET product starting out and developing into soemthing like a tsunami of demand.

I will try to answer some more later on tonight. Thanks for the kind words and thanks for the input from everyone. I feel we should start talking marketing, sales, and revenue ideas to stay ahead of the curve.
