Conference Call Post from Yahoo thread: Top:Business and Finance:Stocks:Technology:Computer Hardware:MXWL (Maxwell Technologies Inc.) <- Previous Next -> Message 319 of 320Reply Conference call notes.....IEatToast Sep 17 1998 6:25PM EDTThe following are some of my notes from the conference call as I heard them. I don't guarantee the accuracy of them, but here goes..... Backlog currently at $75mil.... Co. is up to 1,000 employees.... Ongoing daily dialog with Siemens - don't see any problems with board approval going through Management is very, very optimistic on the both the short & long term prospects of the Co.... 1st quarter is half over & is going very well.... Maxwell France is operating, and expect to have Maxwell Germany soon.... Siemens was sold a broad-based NON-EXCLUSIVE license for Maxwell's products.... Maxwell has carved out a geography for themselves that Siemens cannot sell in.... Siemens will sell Maxwell's products for them until their own production capacity is ramped up.... Need more liquidity for stock - 2 for 1 split would probably occur around $40.... I-Bus should acclerate growth to around 50% going forward.... 4 new production factories have gone on-line in last 9 mo.'s... New factory should be on-line by end of November that would 5x current capacity and possibly cut some costs by a factor of 2x (I am not sure of which products or the exact details of this one).... Still have over 300 inquiries that they have not closed the loop on yet.... Funded research is becoming less & less of sales & product sales are becoming more & more( less than $2mil of the $12mil in power conversion sales came from funded research).... The electromagnetic filters may have found a new home in hearing aids.... Of Maxwell's 3 main competitor's, 2 have asked Maxwell to buy them(please read that again).... The 3rd, Panasonic, has a current product line that is where Maxwell's product was 2 years ago.... Mazda was added as a client this quarter.... Growing relationship with General Electric Medical is developing nicely.... *Tetra-Pak is shipping their 1st commercial product, with Maxwell designed into the unit, to a dairy in Modina, Italy.... There again, these notes are to the best of my recollection. Call the Co. for specifics or verification.... Best regards, T.
