Holy...sh*t. No wonder people are not happy about Cymi. Cymi can rob those fabs in the next few years, if they can't find a replacement. Gary, thanks for the information ($250,000 per machine per year). Following is a guestimate of revenues based on the above and 1,000 laser by Year 2000. The recurring revenueswill be very heavy in the late years when more and more "bulbs" are in service. But of course, I am sure Cymi and the fabs will probably do something to reduce the cost a little, therefore, not giving opportunities to alternative technology. Comments are welcome. 1996 1997 1998 1999 2000 Lasers Sold: 145 450 600 780 1014 Lasers In Service: 0 10 595 1195 1975 New Laser Rev: 64.5 200 267 347 451 Maint./Service: 0 2.5 149 299 494 Total Revenue: 64.5 203 416 646 945 Recurring %: 0% 1% 36% 46% 52%
