Billerbeck Everspin Technologies, Inc. - Interim CEO & President and Executive Chairman of the Board Yes. So our strategy -- we have 2 different strategies. Actually, we have 3 now after this one. So we have first strategy was like, "Hey, let's go license our technology that people want to utilize it." And we continue to do that. We've done that in multiple cases. The RAD-Hard is the exact case of that, where it's multiple things that we do. Really good business for us. We give away nothing because they're building custom products for specific markets that we don't even play in, so that's great. And we're going to continue that. The second piece of this thing is protecting our IP where we go out. And we essentially, people have to license our technology because they're either violating it or using our technology, and they may not know it, right? So that's one area, and we do a lot of protection on that. There's also another element where there's pieces -- we have a lot of patents, and we have a lot of IP that we don't necessarily use anymore with the direction that we're heading. And so as we find people that we're having discussions with about valuable assets, we have those discussions. And in some cases, they result in IP monetization, which is what you're seeing. John A. Fichthorn Dialectic Capital Management, LLC - Co-Founder and Portfolio Manager So you're not really giving away anything. You're -- this is kind of extra value. You're not selling your patent portfolio to capture $4 million or whatever it is? Darin G. Billerbeck Everspin Technologies, Inc. - Interim CEO & President and Executive Chairman of the Board That's correct. You're basically saying what's the maintenance fee, what's all this? Do I really need that? Is that my long-term road map because we have a ton of patents. And this is no different than almost any other company, right? It's once you pick your strategic direction, you're like, yes, we don't need that. And is it -- yes. That's simple. John A. Fichthorn Dialectic Capital Management, LLC - Co-Founder and Portfolio Manager Great. So could you -- there's a -- It sounds like there's been a buildup over COVID, and some of that was released into this period. And yet at the same time, you've got a whole lot of new customers. There's a little bit of a product validation here, product acceptance, I think more is the right word. And so I can't tell whether you have better visibility into the future or worse? And I don't know whether that's a better question for the very near term or the medium term or the long term, but I'd love your kind of thoughts on what we're seeing here of release of pent-up demand relative to visibility going forward? Darin G. Billerbeck Everspin Technologies, Inc. - Interim CEO & President and Executive Chairman of the Board Yes. I mean there's a couple of questions in there but let me try to answer. On one side of it, I think that we didn't have enough design wins 2, 3 years ago on our base business. And so we put a deliberate focus on that. So you're starting to see just a normal like momentum size where new customers coming in, during COVID, they're releasing products. Those products are successful. We're getting demand off of that. That's what you would expect. And we just -- we kept the throttle on the design win for the Toggle just for that reason. On the other hand, in Q1 and Q2, we -- there was a lot of supply constraints and different issues within the supply chain, it was difficult for us to overcome because remember, everyone had this giant push -- excuse me, in Q2, where I think it all just happened at one time. And then as stuff started freeing up, you started seeing us be able to meet the demand. In Q2, we had a higher demand than we could have serviced because of the constraints. Q3, we got some of the supply back from Q2, which helped us. Q4, we have enough supply to be able to do it. We're still leaving probably $3 million to $5 million for the year on the table. Even with all these results, there's still -- our demand is higher than our supply. And when people order today, it's like Q1, Q2, is when we can supply. John A. Fichthorn Dialectic Capital Management, LLC - Co-Founder and Portfolio Manager That's great. So you have good visibility. And does that extend on a longer-term basis? Like in other words, is the base for this product, are we finally at this inflection point where this is now a growth market and you've got kind of, I don't want to say unlimited, but a lot of additional growth going forward that you can just see through execution? Darin G. Billerbeck Everspin Technologies, Inc. - Interim CEO & President and Executive Chairman of the Board Well, you can see it through the customers, right, because if you look at the customer names that we're shipping to today, it's a different base. It's a bigger base than what you had before. And if you remember, probably 3 years ago, we lost like 2 or 3 big customers that hurt |
