Just a warning - I've just had my havelock account hacked and all my AM1 shares stolen, and money withdrawn from account.
I had both 2FA enabled, and login from my own country, Thailand. The thief managed to bypass both of those somehow.
I'm devastated right now - I have asked havelock if they can do anything about it ....
That is why price has gone down at havelock - someone sold my 150 shares and then withdrawn the bitcoins.
All withdrawn to: 18jURpZJjcpdp8Utdf9tePVY4VGK84DmUy

I have a question : the third-generation chip's payment considering USD and Bitcoins. What if Friedcat would receive huge of USDs, then How Friedcat pay shareholders Bitcoins ? To buy huge Bitcoins in the market will certainly be hard .
As a mining related company, buying Bitcoins from the market in order to pay out the dividends doesn't sound very plausible. However, I think in the case of receiving predominantly US dollars, the less hassle way for AM to do is to just keep the dollars for future use. As for long time investors, this might not be much of a problem (subjective opinion). Also, please note that, using Bitcoin as payment method has the advantage of being instant (relative to international wire transfers), and this advantage can be critical since chip buyers would normally expect their new ASICs to be shipped fast. Together with franchising, which generates Bitcoin revenue, we should be good.
From what I've been reading, AM would name a price for gen 3 chips in USD but accept payment in the equivalent amount of BTC. So, as the BTCUSD rate goes up, the hardware becomes cheaper in BTC.
In order to maximize BTC dividends, hope for the current low exchange rate (Bitstamp is at $630) to continue...
These problems have been addressed by friedcat in his latest statement: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.5025133

AFAIK, there have not been any reports of problems sending BTC transactions with confirmed coins. Someone please point out if I've missed problems in that scenario. The only potential issue would be if friedcat were using a bitcoin client (like QT) which allowed him to send unconfirmed coins sent to the change address and he didn't wait for the change transactions to be confirmed.
Or am I missing something about the malleable tx 'flaw'?

I think you're right. AM is safe. I am watching on-going discussion and awaiting fix soon :

Looks like all divs are confirmed at least 45 times, I was not expecting things to go this well all things considered.
Good news coming out of AM, Divs were a little higher this week, divs confirmed with little issue, overall news for bitcoin in general is positive. I see the share price going up quite a bit the next few months.

Havelock paid about 30 minutes ago, so I presume they must have have gotten confirmed payment from AM
February 12, 2014, 08:40:04 PM
Not sure if others are still having problems, but mine confirmed here. There was a several hour delay on one of them, but that isn't unusual for AM dividend payouts.

My payment is in a tx about 15 transactions down the unconfirmed chain.
I feel like this might get screwed up.

Still unconfirmed here as well

Transactions are getting confirmed, but since included tx fees are less then recommended, priority for including those tx in a block is not very high. But they are comming through. I feel like this might get screwed up.

Lets see how this transaction goes... first link in the chain has yet to be confirmed, my QT client does not even see my transaction yet... but I can see it on blockchain.info.
I'm in the same position.
February 12, 2014, 09:01:28 AM
Divs are out: 0.00038072
Getting paid quicker every week. Prefer getting larger every week but need to wait a bit for that
