Management Commentary
Fawad Maqbool, Founder, and CEO of AmpliTech commented, “2022 has been a fantastic year for AmpliTech both operationally and financially. In 2021 we were entirely focused on building and delivering the highest performance analog low noise amplifiers (LNAs) on the market, while also providing waveguide products for the RF subsystem through Specialty Microwave. We achieved industry-leading noise figures, and signal-to-noise ratio, and even implemented cryogenic versions of our amplifiers that powered quantum computing research systems at 4 Kelvin (-452℉)! Since then, we have leveraged our operating divisions and implemented these industry designs in our MMIC form factor through AGMDC, begun offering Semiconductor Integrated Circuits packaging through Spectrum, and extended the build-out of our 5G system integrator business through TGSS.”
“Yet even today the communications infrastructure is not even remotely at the level it needs to be. Ookla’s latest 5G networks speed test report shows 57-116 MB/S downstream speeds and 8-11 MB/S upstream speeds from the 3 major carriers. This is far from the 1-2 GB/S speeds that denote true 5G, including the 2-5 GB/S speeds required by AR/VR technologies like Metaverse. We at AmpliTech see this disconnect as a massive opportunity. As we build out our product suite, our goal is to improve the overall infrastructure performance closer to enabling true 5G.”
“Looking ahead, as the year goes on, we plan to continue to build and grow the AmpliTech brand. As of yet, we have not experienced any slowdown in demand. We continue to generate attractive margins despite increasing material costs as evidenced by the expansion of gross profit margins from
