Q: Hi Peter…QS and GLW announced yesterday an agreement for the development and commercialization of ceramic separators presumably for QS’s batteries. There were no details. I think this is another positive step for QS and also for GLW too. No financial details were provided in the press release. Does Bloomberg have any information on the joint venture? Any change in QS’s short interest? Any thoughts you have would be appreciated.
Incidentally Jim Cramer appears to be quite bullish on GLW generally. I suppose if your company might just be making parts for an improved EV automotive battery that would be a positive. “Build a better mousetrap and the world will beat a path to your door”!
Thanks,
Jim

Q: A couple of days ago I think VW released a video showing the performance of a Ducati motorcycle using a QS battery. The stock responded with a 20% increase on high volume. The stock gave up 10% the next day, but that’s OK. EV Motorbikes exist but they seem to be fairly small and slow. My question…do you think the Ducati is a powerful racing type of bike so it is reasonable to infer that QS’s battery is more powerful than the current battery technology?
Any thoughts you have would be appreciated.
Regards,
Jim

Q: Good morning,

Please state your opinion on the state of the solid-state batteries (sorry).

Can QS be moved from highly speculative R&D to a race contender?

Thank you as always

Nick
