Annual Meeting Insights:
As I looked around the room this year, I saw some new faces
in management, 1. Charles Giancarlo from Cisco, as a new
board of director. 2.Robert Frostholm vp of sales & Market-
ing. 3.Bill Weir director of marketing & sales, and a new
face at the head of operations. These new people all were
impressive as they spoke along with Dr. Salsbury(president)
A lot of hard questions were thrown at Dr. Salsbury, and he
handled them well. RE:Gigabit 8100, Seeq was first to market
with this product. The new second generation 8101 is now out
of the FAB and will be sampled shortly. Seeq has the broad-
est line of ethernet poduct, & has one of the best mixed
signal design people in the valley. There foundry suppliers
are all strong, such as Ricoh, Ami, Samsung, Tsmc.
They have a new customer in Xircom which has placed an order
in the seven figures. Xircom does not want seeq to make
any announcements until they get there new product out.
Then seeq will make an announcement with xircom. Within
the next month hopefully.
Adaptec= New design win (no significant orders yet.)
Seeq said that they can do 40 Million for the year.This is
an Optimistic projection without the backlog.(Of course
Miranda rights were mentioned after the projection)In other
words, it is not in concrete. NEC HAD SELECTED THE 80220 as
the best product on the market. SEEQ said that they had 55%
of the Gigabit Market: Seeq stated that they are working on
another large order that is in the wings. Seeq said that the
Fast Ethernet Market is is Projected at 450-800-Million.
Seeq said, this year they will have a Mac Phy product out
this summer. I have brought out a few of the positive rem-
arks of the meeting today. There are many more. Also, I
have not touched on the negatives, Of course they are the
orders, Where are they? as they stated these design wins
take a long time. There customers must develop there pro-
ducts & test, test,..This takes time. Seeq's management is
Active in sales calls, doing Double Duty) DRAW your own
conclusions to this short summary of the annual meeting
today. I will be holding my position for the next six to
eight months. P.S. Where is the stockaholic, We have not
heard from you lately. Your words always make sense.
goodluck MNM (SEEQ'S new SLOGAN is (GIG) Ahead of the pack: sounds
goodluck
