do stockholders, and potential stockholders believe the guidance that was provided by management?

In answer to your question I will say yes I do believe management.

While I know most people are upset with the SP just as I am I will like us to remember what happened a while back.

Suresh was very open with us and they laid out all their plans in CC and NR's then they had this agreement

“The agreement is significant as it accelerates the transition from lab-to-fab and enables successful prototype demonstrations in a mature and capable manufacturing environment. "We are pleased to enter into this agreement with ANADIGICS. ANADIGICS has proven manufacturing capabilities and a long track record of innovation. Their recent entry into foundry manufacturing for VCSELs was timely for POET," said Dr. Suresh Venkatesan, Chief Executive Officer, POET Technologies.

ANADIGICS' custom VCSEL foundry services leverage its proven wafer manufacturing line and exceptional toolset to provide a superior level of scalability. Combined with ANADIGICS' world-class test capabilities, ANADIGICS' wafer foundry services support the aggressive volume and cost requirements of new VCSEL applications. The advantages of ANADIGICS' VCSEL foundry manufacturing and test capabilities were featured at the 2015 CS ManTech Conference in Scottsdale, AZ.

"We are extremely pleased to be working closely with POET Technologies," said Dr. David Cheskis, Director of Optical Products at ANADIGICS. "With the industry's first 6-inch VCSEL wafer fabrication line, ANADIGICS is able to offer manufacturing excellence and scalability, helping POET Technologies achieve its volume, quality, and reliability goals for the Company's innovative opto-electronic devices."

POET Technologies intends to start transferring its proprietary technology to ANADIGICS' manufacturing operations in Warren, N.J. in the fourth quarter of 2015 and anticipates demonstrating integrated VCSEL prototypes in second quarter 2016.

Followed by this agreement:

POET Technologies and EpiWorks Announce Development and Supply Agreement.

Soon after both of these companies were taken over by ii Vi who is one of POET’ main competition right now. This led to a long delay in POET’s plans, so do you really expect them to tell us everything that is going on in the company? I think they were burned by this incident hence the reason for their tight lips since then.

I know we will all like to know what is going on in the back rooms but I doubt they will tell us anything until they are sure they have the market covered. I for one am sure it will be coming soon.

Good luck to all who have a bit more patience.
