It used to be an over-the-counter company.

What it does is, it actually developed a breakthrough in what are called compounded semiconductors.

We'll call it a breakthrough in terms of trying to build semiconductors for the quantum computing revolution.

These compounded semiconductors basically let them run on less power.

They're more efficient.
