Superconductor Technologies Inc. to Participate at Upcoming Industry Events
August 31 2016 - 6:30AM
- Presenting at the Applied Superconductivity
Conference, Sept. 4th to 9th -- Participating at 2016 IEEE Coated
Conductors for Applications, Sept. 11th to 14th -
Superconductor Technologies Inc. (STI) (Nasdaq:SCON) will
participate at two industry conferences in September.
- At the Applied Superconductivity Conference (ASC) STI’s
technical lead, Dr. Jeong Huh, will deliver a presentation titled
“2G HTS Coated Conductors 1 km Scale-Up at STI” on September 5th at
3:15 p.m. MT. ASC will be held Sept. 4-9 in Denver.
- At the 2016 IEEE Coated Conductors for Applications (CCA) Ken
Pfeiffer, STI’s VP, Engineering, will participate in a working
group on Coated Conductors. CCA16 will be held Sept. 11-14 in
Aspen, CO.
“ASC is an ideal setting to meet with our customers who are
producing fault current limiter, magnet and power transmission
cable products using HTS wire technology,” said Adam Shelton, STI's
VP of Marketing and Product Line Management. “At CCA16 we will join
with industry participants and researchers from all over the world
who are focused on the development of coated conductors for the
large market segments we are targeting. A major emphasis is on
system designs stressing reliable, long term use that can compete
economically with other technologies. At these events, we will
continue to collaborate with our customers that are building new
disruptive machines for commercial deployments in the near term. We
are excited about the growing adoption of superconducting
technology as an enabler of energy efficiency and the related
market opportunities for Conductus® wire.”
About Superconductor Technologies Inc.
(STI)Superconductor Technologies Inc. is a global leader
in superconducting innovation. Its Conductus® superconducting wire
platform offers high performance, cost-effective and scalable
superconducting wire. With 100 times the current carrying capacity
of conventional copper and aluminum, superconducting wire offers
zero resistance with extreme high current density. This provides a
significant benefit for electric power transmission and also
enables much smaller or more powerful magnets for motors,
generators, energy storage and medical equipment. Since 1987, STI
has led innovation in HTS materials, developing more than 100
patents as well as proprietary trade secrets and manufacturing
expertise. For more than 20 years STI utilized its unique HTS
manufacturing process for solutions to maximize capacity
utilization and coverage for Tier 1 telecommunications operators.
Headquartered in Austin, TX, Superconductor Technologies Inc.'s
common stock is listed on the NASDAQ Capital Market under the

Statement Statements in this press release
regarding our business that are not historical facts are
"forward-looking statements" that involve risks and
uncertainties. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees
of future performance and are inherently subject to uncertainties
and other factors, which could cause actual results to differ
materially from the forward-looking statements. These factors and
uncertainties include, but are not limited to: our limited cash and
a history of losses; our need to materially grow our revenues from
commercial operations and/or to raise additional capital (which
financing may not be available on acceptable terms or at all) in
the very near future, before cash reserves are depleted (which
reserves are expected to be sufficient into the first quarter of
2017), to implement our current business plan and maintain our
viability; the performance and use of our equipment to produce wire
in accordance with our timetable; overcoming technical challenges
in attaining milestones to develop and manufacture commercial
lengths of our HTS wire; the possibility of delays in customer
evaluation and acceptance of our HTS wire; the limited number of
potential customers and customer pressures on the selling prices of
our products; the limited number of suppliers for some of our
components and our HTS wire; there being no significant backlog
from quarter to quarter; our market being characterized by rapidly
advancing technology; the impact of competitive products,
technologies and pricing; manufacturing capacity constraints and
difficulties; the impact of any financing activity on the level of
our stock price; the dilutive impact of any issuances of securities
to raise capital; the steps required to maintain the listing of our
common stock with a U.S. national securities exchange and the
impact on the liquidity and trading price of our common stock if we
fail to maintain such listing; the cost and uncertainty from
compliance with environmental regulations; and local, regional, and
national and international economic conditions and events and the
impact they may have on us and our customers.
Forward-looking statements can be affected by many other
factors, including, those described in the "Business" and
"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations" sections of STI's Annual Report on Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2015 and in STI's other public
filings. These documents are available online at STI's website,
www.suptech.com, or through the SEC's website, www.sec.gov.
Forward-looking statements are based on information presently
available to senior management, and STI has not assumed any duty to
update any forward-looking statements.
