Shareholder update...…..
https://ca.finance.yahoo.com/news/quantum-mat...00128.html
The Plan:
The Company currently intends to apply, to once again become a reporting issuer with the SEC and to re-commence its filings with the SEC at the earliest practicable date. In that regard, the Company is diligently working with its auditors and securities counsel to compile, disseminate and review the financial and other current information required to be presented in its public filings, and to prepare and file a registration statement to once again become a reporting issuer. Thereafter, and subject to satisfaction of all regulatory approvals, it will seek to once again have its shares of common stock traded on the OTC Market.
Concurrently, we will also be seeking shareholder approval via a consent solicitation (the “Consent Solicitation”) for the filing of an amendment to our Articles of Incorporation (the “Certificate of Amendment”). This will be done in order to increase the authorized shares of our common stock to provide for additional authorized shares of common stock. This will give us the ability to, among other things, raise additional capital so that we can continue to fund our operations and fulfill certain obligations that we have to investors. Additional details regarding the Certificate of Amendment and our existing agreements and obligations to investors will be provided in the Consent Solicitation, which we will be mailing to shareholders on or about August 26, 2021.
I urge all shareholders to read the contents of the Consent Solicitation and to vote in favor of the Certificate of Amendment expeditiously. Unfortunately, I cannot tell you exactly when the Company’s trading status will be restored. It depends on a number of factors, many of which are outside of our control. However, I can assure you that we intend to work tirelessly to restore the Company’s reporting and trading status.
Technical and commercial Accomplishments:
The entire QMC science and technology team is fully engaged and dedicated to moving our technologies forward and leveraging our patented/proprietary technologies into two primary verticals. We have a very active patent strategy and put a high priority on creating, protecting, and defending our discoveries. We have recently made significant reductions to our staff and our overhead. We have narrowed the company’s development and commercialization focus to only those technologies/products that we believe can achieve near-term commercial success or have a clear line of site to a commercial strategic partner.
HealthID
We have expended considerable resources developing and marketing our HealthID product but have not yet achieved the anticipated success. Despite the substantial interest and verbal commitments, primarily from U.K.-centric companies, the wide-ranging extended shut down in the U.K. interfered with our ability to get the product adopted. Although we still believe QMC HealthID has great potential, we also think it has much more synergy with our quantum dot point of care testing technologies. We will also be seeking out potential strategic partners as well as potential acquirers for this platform. As a result, this product will not be part of our immediate commercialization efforts.
DOT-IQ, point of care testing technology
The Company recognized early in the advent of Covid-19 that we could use our proprietary technologies to design and develop a more sensitive lateral flow test kit using our unique quantum dot technologies. Over the past several months, we have expanded our biotech team and collaborated with our material scientists. As a result, we have now developed a point of care test platform (POCT) that we believe is more sensitive than current technologies. We believe it will provide analytic sensitivity that can rival PCR and provide quantitative results when warranted. We are currently developing 1) LFTs (lateral flow test kits) for TBI (traumatic brain injury, aka concussions), 2) a multiplex test that detects Covid-19, Flu and RSV (Respiratory Syncytial Virus), and 3) a vaccine validator to thwart counterfeit vaccines and validate vaccine efficacy. This test kit technology uses a unique quantum dot as a signal amplifier and can give a visual test result indication using a low-cost UV light source or using our POCT reader to interface with a P.C. or a smartphone. This reader is designed to provide a binary readout indicating positive or negative and a quantitative result indicating the level of viral loading. We believe that this can be very valuable, particularly in viruses like Covid-19, where a current test cannot reliably identify low viral loading, which is often the case in asymptomatic individuals who are the most likely to spread the virus unknowingly. In addition, the Company has signed a term sheet with a Canada-based biote
