Small update for Assam, India:
It'll be interesting to see what the new timeline is. I assume by end of 2022 things will start to kick off.
Quote:In November 2018, the Company entered into a license and development agreement with Amtronics India LLC related to the volume production of quantum dots in Assam, India. The agreement is part of a larger project for the design, training, research and development of a quantum dot manufacturing facility in Assam. This project has been under discussion for nearly three years. A ground-breaking ceremony took place in Assam on January 16, 2019, and the Company anticipated operations being established and operational prior to year-end 2019. In addition to an upfront fee and royalty, the agreement provides for the Company to sell equipment and training services, which the Company expects will provide additional revenues. The project was delayed due to historic flooding in the region during 2019 and 2020. The project was and continues to be delayed due to the severe Covid-19 outbreak and subsequent quarantine occurring throughout India. Construction on the project has resumed and planning for a new timeline has begun.
The Company believes that the terms of the licensing agreement will enable the Company to begin to leverage its intellectual property portfolio and to begin generating revenues without overburdening the Company’s scientific staff in a manner that would disrupt new discovery. The other participants in the Assam project have the responsibility of, among other things, developing the site, constructing the facilities and hiring staff. The Company has agreed to construct and supply the proprietary equipment, assisting in the development and scale up of the 3rd generation solar, display and SSL products, training and providing a broad range of consulting services at additional cost, representing a potential ongoing revenue opportunity for the Company.
The Company received advanced payments from Amtronics India LLC related to its exclusive license and development agreement related to the production of quantum dots in Assam, India (“License Agreement”), which have been recorded as contract liabilities and will be recognized as revenue in accordance with ASC Topic 606 once the performance obligations are met. As of September 30, 2019, and 2018 contract liabilities were $1,197,973 and $500,000, respectively. The current liability represents the next twelve months’ portion of the license fees revenue. For each of the period ended September 30, 2019 and 2019, no revenue was recorded related to the License Agreement.
In addition to Company’s efforts to commercialize its QD-LED remote phosphor technology for displays, the Company plans for its core focus in the first half of 2019 to be research and development for the optimization of its 3rd generation perovskite QD based solar technology in preparation of scaling up to commercial production levels in Assam, India.
It'll be interesting to see what the new timeline is. I assume by end of 2022 things will start to kick off.
