From what I’ve heard, they needed the extra authorized shares in case Emil exercises all his warrants/options or whatever he has.
Verizon filed the recent ex part. According to statistics, it can take an average of 25.7 months. Although the ‘606 was under a year, if I’m not mistaken.
I’d be more concerned with knowing what the actual damages VPLM is seeking with Verizon. This is essential and will determine how the market reacts once we get closer to trial. If we get no word on damages sought, don’t expect much appreciation in the PPS. We didn’t with the Amazon case. Just saying…
IMHO
It has little to do with the PPS. Do you really think they’re selling because they know of bad news?
IMHO
Who are you referring to? This is regarding the Defendants not plaintiffs.
Therefore, what’re the standard reasoning for VPLM for not disclosing the damages, pre trial.
If they fail to do so pretrial, as they did with Amazon and they settle with Verizon, without disclosing the details aka settlement amount, don’t expect the PPS to react as one would expect it to.
PPS is falling because the market doesn’t know the value of these lawsuits aka DAMAGES.
IMHO
Good post, a trial verdict maybe the only time (until financials) shareholders find out the damages and value of the patents.
VPLM needs to be more transparent on the damages. I would expect they do after pretrial. Until they do so, I don’t expect the PPS to appreciate much.
Why haven’t they done so? Will they after pretrial? They didn’t with Amazon last year?
IMHO
Oh, we’ll need more than hope for any settlement and or buyout, from what I understand.……It’s off to trial. IMHO
PPS won’t change until the market knows the damages VPLM, is seeking.
For what….that hearsay deal fell through. There’s another four months to go….prepare to go to trial in August.
IMHO
I wouldn’t expect any positive change in the PPS until we approach the trial date, or at least the July 9th pretrial date.
Something also worth mentioning, VPLM better start doing a better job at letting the market place aware of the damages sought from at least the Verizon case!!
Until investors are aware of the potential damages, don’t expect the PPS to appreciate.
Why in the world hasn’t VPLM done a better job at this? Possibly not to upset Albright? Or have they agreed with the defendants not to do so? They didn’t do it with the Amazon case last year.
I could understand up to the pretrial date, to stay quiet but, once we’re into mid July, one would expect VPLM to let the public know exactly what damages they’re seeking! As of now, only a handful have some sort of speculation.
VPLM has done a great thus far with the legal battle. Much appreciated. NOW, they need to start promoting the value all these patents.
All shareholders must be concerned if VPLM settles with Verizon, we don’t get shunned as we did last year, with Amazon.
Everyone is expecting a buyout but, be prepared to go to trial. Just saying!
IMHO
I heard more motions from their new attorneys
August 19th first court date with Verizon with Pretrial on July 9th…..T- Mobile in November.…….Amazon, more than likely 2025.
IMHO
You would think.
Last year no damages were announced prior to the trial. Hopefully, they’ll be announced this time.
I don’t mean the dates, I’m referring to damages!
Apparently, they’re not allowed to promote the trials. Defendants won’t allow them to benefit from doing so.
If VPLM doesn’t achieve a buyout prior to trial or win in court with a $2 billion + verdict, the shareholders might just get shunned again, just like the infamous Amazon settlement.
This should be a big concern for all shareholders!
If Verizon settles more than likely the damages won’t be announced, thus the market might not react as we all are hoping.
IMHO
Hopefully, if there’s a settlement, the shareholders will know about it. If they don’t, the result will appear similar to what happened with the Amazon cases!
Agreed
Good, I guess you didn’t heard from the shareholders I did, who said we’re going to trial.
Believing, is nothing more than hope, and wishful thinking, not fact. Hearsay and hyperbole at best. We’ve experienced it in February and then now the six more weeks and then some.
I sure hope you’re right, I’ll be a the first one who will say I was wrong. IMHO
FYI, Intel’s $2.1 billion verdict was recently over turned on appeal almost three years later. Why would any one of these infringers settle, when they can just take the chance on lower the amount on appeal?
This will go the way as the Netlist, Virnetx and ParkerVision, cases went. VPLM, will more than likely win in court and the PPS will increase probably more than what some are expecting a buyout to do. IMHO. Unless, they settle and we get shunned as we did with the Amazon case last May. A concern all should have.
Just trying to be real…..just saying.
IMHO
Wow, I just heard from a shareholder, that this will be over by the end of the month……..Then I just got a text from another shareholder who heard from someone who heard from someone, that’s in the “know”, and he said no, 6-8 more week…….Then a day later, a different shareholder called and said, no, no,I heard from someone, who heard from someone, who heard from someone in the “know” and said, it’ll be an additional 6-8 more weeks!!!!! Then, I got an email saying, we’re going to trial. LMFAO
Round and round we go, let’s see who can predict the exact day. How pathetic can this get.
Obviously, with all the rumors that didn’t come to fruition, something fell through, or possibly delayed. I’ve excepted the strong possibility we’re going to trial. Hopefully, in August. I’d love to be proven wrong but, I doubt it.
IMHO
Hey, there he is…..I was wondering where you went. What happened with your previous predictions ? Wasn’t this supposed to be over last week?
Credibility is above done.
IMHO
Some online media had an article on VoIP-pal.com executive’s spouse selling over $ 13,000 in stock!! $ 13,000 and this is in an article. States she still has 89,590,022 shares.
In the positive side, the article did state VPLM holds more cash than debt on its balance sheet. Moreover, the company’s liquid assets exceed its short-term obligations, indicating a solid position to cover immediate loss liabilities.
IMHO
Looks like your imaginary friend aka Carnac, is on Fantasy Island with Ricardo Montalban and Tattoo LMAO
Da plane, da plane……
Wait a minute, I thought your prediction was for the end of this week? Now, you’re changing it to next week, and even a few more months? Hmmmm, you’re really going out on a limb huh? Seems to me, you’re being lead on, just to keep you from selling so the PPS stays up, so the insiders can sell more shares.
I get the feeling some deal fell through and or was delayed.
My prediction is that VPLM, is going to trial, just like the others did. Aka, ParkerVision, Virnetx, Netlist and Kove. I sure hope I’m wrong and we get this over with within the next four months.
IMHO
Is this another one of your fantasies?
Don’t tell me, you heard it from someone who heard it from someone else, who heard it from Emil!
More than likely, we’re heading to trial.
IMHO
WOW, unbelievable not being able to process the idiocy of a CEO speaking to individual shareholders and telling them not to sell, as his wife and other insiders continue to sell. INCREDIBLE to say the least.
What a predicament, if VPLM doesn’t come to fruition! Scary stuff, I certainly wouldn’t want to be out in that situation!
Hopefully, VPLM can monetize and the stupidity of this won’t be an issue!
IMHO
And the Huawei claims construction was reset for May 29, 2024.
Added value for any acquisition deal!
IMHO
Excellent! I believe this will be the route we’re heading to. Companies do win patent cases. A court victory validates VPLM’s patents and enhances any chance of an acquisition and increases the value!!
I believe this is a private company, so we can’t see how a PPS would react to a trial victory.
IMHO
Good points. Talk about loose lips, telling his shareholders not to sell, while his wife and insiders continue to do so. Yikes! I guess this explains why Emil shouldn’t be talking to shareholders, huh? Doesn't take a brain surgeon to comprehend this. Not a very good situation to be in, if VPLM doesn’t monetize. WOW
IMHO
VPLM has got to be more transparent to the market place and get the damages made public. Until this is known, the PPS will remain stable. Obviously, in addition to the insiders no longer selling.
Just saying IMHO
Just think, if this never comes to fruition, someone has a lot of explaining to do! Telling shares not to sell, while insiders bump their shares. Just crazy!
Again, Emil should never be talking to individual shareholders! NEVER!! A conference call would be more appropriate.
IMHO
Good post and I agree.
Why haven’t the damages been made public? Hopefully, by the time VPLM goes to trial they will be.
Exactly, especially when no one reads past the third sentence. Wasted energy with zero substance.
NYT, you just can’t process the importance of 36 IPR wins means. This is a “you”‘problem, not an “I” problem.
These infringers don’t have a leg to stand on in terms of patent validity. ZERO chance of proving this patent invalid! PERIOD
The best thing is to go to court and get the damages public and it’s off !
IMHO
NYT……you need to go ask the defendants in all cases versus ParkerVision, Virnetx and Netlist. I’ve answered your question, gave you examples and you just can’t seem to either admit it or process it. PERIOD! Checkmate
NYT…..
The positives of winning any IPR PTAB challenges. IPR’s were originally created by the BIGS, as an alternative way for defendants in a patent case to knock out a patent and its patent claims before they even got to trial. IPR’s at the PTAB are filed to INVALIDATE a patent and its claims.
Conversely, if a plaintiff, aka, patent owner “VPLM”, successfully overcame any patent/claims challenge via the IPR review, the patent in challenge would become STRONGER, as the IPR challenge failed to undermine the integrity of the patent.
Winning (overcoming) IPR challenges only further strengthens a plaintiff’s position in trial court as they attempt to enforce their patent rights by providing the presumption of validity leaving the plaintiff with the sole task of proving the defendant has actually infringed.
OVERCOMING AN IPR CHALLENGE IS A MUST-DO STEP IN ENFORCING ANY PATENT RIGHTS!!!! Which was accomplished by Voip-PAL.COM, 36 times!
Oh, I almost forgot, how about having a successful ex parte reexamination, in the ‘606 patent case, originally filed by Twitter?
Therefore, here you go. Please refer to the court cases won by; Virnetx, ParkerVision and Netlist. Need I say more?
Can’t wait until August 19th.
IMHO
Fung…totally agree, Emil should never be talking directly to individual shareholders. Then have that shareholder run his mouth on a public forum like he knows information, no one else does. Not very good optics. IMHO
No wonder why Warren Buffett hasn’t been returning my calls.
Well, there’s no trial date set for Amazon. If they were negotiating and intending on acquiring VPLM, why would they now bring on these new attorneys? Oh yeah I get it, it to scare VPLM that they have every intention on taking this to trial. There’s no urgency to settle, as there’s no trial date. Therefore , they have to prepare for a trial. Who knows, things could easily change once we get to the August trial.
As perviously posted, keep an eye on the court documents. This is telling. Not just some prognosticators projecting like they know what’s happening. It doesn’t take a brain surgeon to predict the closer we get to the trial, the possibility of a deal, is more likely.
IMHO
You made a few good points and I laughed over one.
EXACTLY, I couldn’t agree more. Any scenario where the damages and or settlement amount is made public, would be best for the PPS to appreciate.
My biggest concern, as you mentioned, is the shareholders get shunned again. aka, Amazon.
We’d all love a nice acquisition but, I believe VPLM needs to win a case in court and validate the damages, prior to anyone acquiring them. I hope I’m wrong but, we’ll just have to wait and see.
IMHO
Excellent points. I’ve mentioned this before.
Keep in mind, the so called 95% settled cases, aren’t always as they appear to be. VPLM can attest to that.
There were some scheduling events set yesterday and both trials seem to be set for their scheduled dates. There’s nothing to do now but just wait and see how things develop. Just have to check the court documents. Certainly doesn’t seem by now, any of the pending motions to dismiss were granted or even ruled on. If so, they should have been PR’d. Highly doubt these trial dates will be moved again. They already got an additional year, in the so-called Rocket Docket.
Let’s hope for an excellent settlement with Verizon or go to trial with a win. Either way, if damages are made public, the PPS should appreciate accordingly.
IMHO
I didn’t say it was low, rather I’m expecting this goes to trial.
Let’s hope so. As well as let’s hope we don’t get shunned on any settlement terms, as we did with the Amazon deal. That wouldn’t surprise me one bit. Just saying….
Still say we’re headed to trial with Verizon. I sure hope I’m wrong but, I doubt it. IMHO
