"The second quarter of 2022 was marked by further fortification of our patent portfolio as well as our inclusion on the Russell 3000® Index, an important milestone and testament to the Company's potential," said Dr. Michael Lebby, Chief Executive Officer of Lightwave Logic. "We believe that our addition to this well-followed index will provide greater visibility for Lightwave Logic within the broader investment community and help to increase liquidity for our shareholders.
"We publicly announced three patent applications during the quarter, two of which focus on manufacturing simplification and a third on enhancing polymer modulator manufacturing in high-volume foundries. These represent key aspects in achieving deep market penetration, allowing our polymer technology platform to become the engine for pluggable fiber optic transceivers that are being utilized throughout internet infrastructure. The continued fortification of our intellectual property portfolio positions us to make polymers truly ubiquitous as we work to simplify the production of polymer modulators for our foundry partners.
"Looking into the second half of 2022, we continue to make significant progress to further advance our commercialization efforts alongside our global foundry partners, while buildout out our IP moat with each technology enhancement. Taken together, these improvements are enabling an expedited commercialization process through simplified manufacturing. We continue to focus on the capital markets, attending a variety of investor conferences and achieving inclusion on the Russell 3000® Index. I look forward to providing further updates as we move closer to our end goal of mass market commercialization," concluded Dr. Lebby.
