Bullish Statements during Earnings call

Statement
This is really exciting
This is really exciting
But the feedback has been strong and constructive and that's exciting
It's that validation, the acceptance in the marketplace that really is making myself and the team, which I think has done an incredible job to bring us to this point
You can see from the ticks on the right-hand side, we have a very nice position vis-à-vis competition
That's really good
The electro-optic polymer slot modulators, they provide faster data rates, smaller sizes and lower power, which makes the technology very exciting for us as we go forward to take our technology into the optical network and Internet environment
For us, this is really exciting
That's really exciting
This is really exciting
This is a reflection of the combined effect of positive demand for higher traffic and lower power consumption drivers
That's really one of the key reasons why we're really excited here
Even without the other markets that we've included in this calculation, this is a substantial business opportunity
We've made really good progress with our PDKs
That's really super exciting
We're getting some really nice performance here over the long term
We're creating a strong moat and know how to carve leadership in the high-speed modulated game
But if we fast forward to today, we do have unique chemistry and we improved the performance of our materials incredibly over the last five to six years
We've got a powerful patent portfolio
What are the takeaways from the presentation? Our technology is competitively superior and unique
This is really exciting
That's at the very highest level
But what I do know is our technology is aligned and can fit that performance profile, and that's very exciting
The figure of merit when you look at these metrics here allows us to perform really well, even though some of these technologies have great performances in certain areas
We see the effect of artificial intelligence indirectly really benefiting us because the traffic is going to increase
This is some of the work we've done since we did the Chromosol acquisition, and this is really exciting
We have a world class Board, Technical Advisory Board as well as a team we're working with very closely, the MZ Group that we feel has done a really nice job on the IR and the PR side of things
This is really exciting
But what that has really done is that's shown—it's going to show a lot of people that at least there is really good market acceptance of our technology
The core skills with a technology called atomic layer deposition really improved with that acquisition
       

Bearish Statements during earnings call

Statement
This traffic and this power is a huge problem for folks who run data centers, as you can see here
This is a major challenge for those guys and the service providers
At our foundry we are worried about the investment into thin-film lithium niobate
That's a big problem
This is a big issue in data centers
This is difficult to implement into big silicon foundries
Some people are trying to get indium phosphide into silicon foundries, but it's difficult
But when we start talking about lithium niobate and barium titanate, it's really difficult to have these technologies in the silicon foundry
You can't sustain that
It's on a trajectory that it doesn't make a lot of sense
The numbers come down to about 3 million units as I just indicated
But the interesting thing from our standpoint is people are going crazy
They modulate light also, but are very, very slow
The impact of this is commercial market acceptance
We have to be very aggressive in this
When these market research companies look out 10 years there's probably a little bit of an error here
But the observation from a Lightwave standpoint is, wow, when you see something like this taking off in less than a week, it has an impact on this graph here
That may happen, and it may not happen
It just got caught on like wildfire
Those polymers actually generate light
