I know, the question is, what does IDCC want
Would love to know if 80 million would cover the Lenovo legal fees alone after all these years in litigation.

Lenovo Makes $80M Play To Resolve InterDigital IP Dispute
By Joanne Faulkner · Listen to article
Law360, London (January 14, 2022, 1:46 PM GMT) -- Lenovo offered to pay InterDigital a lump payment of $80 million on Friday to end a long-running battle over fair and reasonable licensing terms for mobile phone standard patents, arguing that it was comparable with deals struck by other major manufacturers.

China's Lenovo said during the early stages of a High Court trial in London to settle terms for global licenses for 3G, 4G and 5G standard patents owned by InterDigital that it had always been willing to pay for a license. But the company said it wanted similar terms to those that had been offered to its rivals including Apple, Samsung and Huawei.
InterDigital, a U.S. company, has been holding out for a "discriminatory premium" compared with the rates paid by other manufacturers — "to the tune of hundreds of millions of dollars and to which it is not entitled," Lenovo said in court documents.
The large amounts of money demanded by InterDigital are also at odds with the value of its patent portfolio, Daniel Alexander QC, counsel for Lenovo told the court on Friday.
InterDigital is trying to justify an "inflated rate" for its patents that increases the royalty burden for Lenovo and potentially the whole industry, Alexander said.
The U.S. company, meanwhile, did not put an exact figure on the amount it is seeking, arguing that a number of payment terms had to be considered by the court.
The 16-day trial is set to establish a fair, reasonable and non-discriminatory licensing rate, known as FRAND, for InterDigital's technology. The research and development company is also asking the court to make provisions for it to recover past damages for years of patent infringement by Lenovo.
Lenovo says that InterDigital's offers so far do not conform with FRAND principles. The Chinese company will urge the English courts to adopt the same approach as courts in China and the U.S. that give dominant weight to comparable agreements with other manufacturers when deciding what standard essential patent owners can charge.
This is the second FRAND license case to reach trial in the U.K. It follows in the wake of the Supreme Court's landmark decision in a case known as Unwired that England's courts have the authority to set global rates for use of standard-essential patents.
When it decides what rate to set, the court will have to resolve a dispute over whether it is appropriate to include in the FRAND terms a mechanism that takes into account the results of the international parallel proceedings.
Adrian Speck QC, counsel for InterDigital, focused during the hearing on Thursday on what he described as an "unwillingness" by Lenovo to resolve licensing talks that have been going on since 2009.
Speck accused Lenovo of opting to continue expensive litigation rather than trying to reach a fair royalty rate for InterDigital's portfolio and to delay handing over patent fees. Lenovo has been "thumbing its nose" at efforts to persuade it to take the license it lawfully needs to make and sell mobile products worldwide, Speck continued.
The only terms upon which Lenovo would do a deal "is if it was more economically advantageous than what it would cost to string out litigation," the lawyer added.
Lenovo is also ignoring the fact that the license the English court is being asked to consider is a worldwide license for every device sold by the company, Speck said. Any national determination for U.S. and Chinese patents do not have a worldwide scope.
InterDigital is arguing that it should be able to block sales of Lenovo's devices if it refuses to accept the court-determined licensing terms.
According to InterDigital, the Chinese manufacturer is trying to avoid the Supreme Court's 2020 decision. FRAND is not a "hard-edged principle of non-discrimination" — it does not require a patent owner to always offer the most advantageous terms it has ever offered, the company said in court documents.
Five InterDigital portfolio patents are also the subject of ongoing, parallel technical trials at the High Court.
In the second judgment handed down earlier this month, a judge found that one of InterDigital's standard-essential patents for 3G wireless technology is invalid because it lacks novelty. The patent covers the way in which data blocks of specified sizes are transmitted by mobile phones, according to the judgment.
This contrasts with the first technical decision from July in which InterDigital emerged on top. The High Court ruled in that instance that the Chinese tech giant had infringed a valid standard-essential patent for 4G wireless technology.
InterDigital is represented by Adrian Speck QC, Mark Chacksfield QC, Isabel Jamal, Thomas Jones and Edmund Eustace of 8 New Square, instructed by Alex Brodie and Matt Hervey of Gowling WLG.
Lenovo and Motorola are represented by Daniel Alexander QC and William Duncan of 8 New Square and James Segan QC and Ravi Mehta of Blackstone Chambers, instructed by Daniel Lim of Kirkland & Ellis International LLP.
The case is InterDigital Technology Corporation and others v Lenovo Group Limited and others, case number HP-2019-000032, in the Business and Property Courts, Intellectual Property List, Chancery Division of the High Court of Justice of England and Wales.

New White Paper Centers AI as a Critical Component of 5G Telecoms Network Success
Company Release - 12/15/2022
New research from InterDigital and ABI Research reveals the unique influences of AI/ML solutions to automate, enhance, and optimize 5G wireless networks
WILMINGTON, Del., Dec. 15, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Citing artificial intelligence (AI) and 5G as cornerstone technologies of this decade, a new whitepaper released today by InterDigital, Inc. (NASDAQ: IDCC) and written by ABI Research details the integral importance of AI to achieve 5G’s potential. The whitepaper, AI is the Key for 5G Success, examines the network domains and standards efforts where AI and ML are being integrated to automate critical 5G operations.
According to the whitepaper, 5G promises to support multiple spectral assets, from low-band to millimeter Wave frequencies, and a proliferation of diverse IoT, consumer, and enterprise use cases, therefore requiring complex AI algorithms to achieve desired network function and quality user experience. Demand for advanced AI algorithms to enhance network planning and maintenance also is expected to grow as industry considers energy costs and network sustainability and prepares for future use cases and services.
“AI/ML will deliver benefits to nearly every layer of the 5G network domain, from the RAN and core networks to business and operational applications over top. While AI/ML is increasingly integrated within the business and operational layers of 5G networks today, tech evolution will see greater AI/ML impact within network foundations like the RAN,” said Milind Kulkarni, VP and Head of Wireless Labs at InterDigital. “This new frontier of AI/ ML integration will require new R&D in machine learning algorithms, and InterDigital is proud to drive research in this rich area of innovation and standardization.”
The whitepaper describes key use cases for AI in 5G networks, including the following:
Network optimization through Dynamic Traffic Steering uses intelligent AI/ML solutions to improve user experience as the network manages traffic across different access technologies, including 4G, Wi-Fi and 5G.
The RAN is beginning to leverage AI algorithms to optimize Massive MIMO to calculate the optimal angle, position, beamwidth, and other parameters that help drive the massive capacity increase from 4G to 5G networks.
RAN Intelligence Controller (RIC) and Service Management and Orchestration (SMO) are promising network features introduced in Open RAN networks that can drive significant value by eliminating market barriers to open interfaces from third parties and allowing new entrants to apply their innovative algorithms to telecoms networks.
AI models and algorithms are being tapped to reduce network costs in a variety of domains, including bridging varying network vendor equipment and management models, leading real-time resource management, predicting future network requirements to optimize procurement decisions, and aiding with network planning and deployment.
AI/ML capabilities are critical for cellular service providers to embrace full closed-loop automation and progress towards applications that can make and implement self-driven decisions for the network, with minimal human input. This approach requires a variety of KPIs from across the mobile ecosystem and an end-to-end orchestrated and tightly integrated network.
“AI is not a new concept in cellular and telecom networks – in fact it has been used to optimize many parts of the network stack and business processes for years. However, network automation using AI/ML is now becoming vital to manage the number of devices, increasing amounts of traffic and a plethora of use cases in the network domain,” said Dimitris Mavrakis, Senior Research Director at ABI Research. “The proliferation of AI/ML in cellular networks is now creating the foundation upon which newer generations will be built, including 5G Advanced and 6G, which will introduce completely new types of service innovation and consumer experiences.”
To achieve greater network automation, cellular service providers increasingly use standards-based architectures and open APIs within AI/ML-based automation platforms to overcome extensive customization and siloed processes in the network stack. 3GPP is exploring the use of AI in the 5G network in Release 18, and InterDigital is actively supporting the effort to investigate the benefits of augmenting the New Radio Air Interface with AI/ML models to enhance performance and reduce complexity. Additionally, the ORAN Alliance has established reference architecture for RIC and SMO network elements to leverage AI algorithms in order to maintain and optimize the network, while ETSI has developed the Experiential Network (ENI) framework for AI in telecoms networks to create closed-loop management systems to enhance network operations.
As the proliferation of devices, spectrum bands, data traffic, and infrastructure vendors makes 5G networks increasingly complex, AI is an important tool to automate and manage the critical network operations today, and into the future.

Lenovo Fights To Invalidate InterDigital 4G Patent On Appeal
By Sophia Dourou · Listen to article
Law360, London (December 14, 2022, 6:30 PM GMT) -- Lenovo asked an appeals court Wednesday to find an InterDigital patent for technology used in 4G is invalid, arguing an earlier judge took the wrong approach in deciding whether the invention would be obvious given earlier technical developments.
Counsel for Lenovo told the Court of Appeal that the patent in question — which covers a way to use a non-contention-based channel allocated for use by a single device — failed to state any advantage over prior art and was therefore obvious rather than inventive.
Lenovo's counsel Thomas Hinchliffe KC said the patent, which involves reducing a message to a 1-bit size and transmitting it using an "on-off key," should have been obvious based on prior art, including a technical document submitted by Samsung in a 2005 working group meeting during the development of LTE technology.
Lenovo is appealing a June 2021 High Court ruling that the patent in question was valid and essential, and had been infringed by the Chinese tech giant.
Hinchliffe rejected the suggestion that the patent was not obvious because it used the on-off key technology previously thought to be "impractical" for cellular networks. He stressed that a skilled person would have been aware of any potential problems and tradeoffs involved in using that technology, but it would have been part of his or her common general knowledge.
But Judge Colin Birss, leading the three-judge panel, disputed the assertion that the on-off key would have been "at the forefront" of a skilled person's mind.
"If it was a technique that was part of their toolkit, it was right at the bottom of it, right under a rusty screwdriver," Judge Birss remarked.
Douglas Campbell KC, representing InterDigital, told the court that Lenovo lacked any real legal ground to mount a challenge, and said it was merely attempting to overturn the earlier judge's findings of fact on the on-off key technology. Cambell pointed out that while Lenovo relied heavily on the patent's lack of stated advantage over prior art, it did not dispute that the invention did, in fact, offer an actual advantage.
Campbell said in his written submissions there was nothing in the Samsung document suggesting using the on-off key technology, which remains "the beginning and end" of Lenovo's case as to obviousness. Campbell further accused Lenovo of relying on a partial account of the evidence given by experts over the course of the trial in his appeal.
This appeal is the latest development in a long-running battle between the two technology companies over standard-essential patents used in cellular phones. InterDigital and Lenovo have been in talks since 2009 to license InterDigital's patent portfolio covering 3G and 4G standards, with no success.
In January, Lenovo scored a victory after a judge invalidated a pattern held by InterDigital in the second of five trials. That same month, Lenovo offered to pay its rival a lump sum of $80 million to end the ongoing dispute over fair and reasonable licensing terms for mobile phone patents.
The hearing before Judges Colin Birss, Mark Warby and Sarah Falk is set to continue Thursday.
The patent-in-suit is European Patent (UK) No. 2 485 558.
InterDigital is represented by Douglas Campbell KC and Joe Delaney of Three New Square, instructed by Alex Brodie of Gowling WLG (UK) LLP.
Lenovo is represented by Thomas Hinchliffe KC and Jeremy Heald of Three New Square, instructed by Nicola Dagg of Kirkland & Ellis International LLP.
The case is InterDigital Technology Corporation & Ors v. Lenovo Group Ltd & Ors, case number CA-2021-003431, in the Court of Appeal of England and Wales.

Ho-hum…oh well maybe sooner than later this year.
And with Universal Display.
my3sons87, thank you.
I think that'll help us get a Samsung renewal :)
All joking aside, so far this year Samsung has been good at long-term
renewals with both Qualcomm and Rambus.
should be a winner

InterDigital has near-term upside and a medium-term opportunity - Jefferies
Stock Markets Dec 09, 2022 04:11PM ET
By Sam Boughedda
Jefferies initiated coverage of InterDigital (NASDAQ:IDCC) with a Buy rating and $80 price target in a note to clients on Friday.
Analysts told investors in a note that the company has posted a three-year revenue CAGR of 11% as it expanded existing relationships and signed new licensees, and they model an 11% CAGR through 2027 that "delivers operating leverage and five-year EPS power of $6.75."
"IDCC is a provider of leading cellular and video compression/streaming IP (>28k total patents and 50% increase in patent assets since '17) that it licenses into the smartphone, consumer electronics, auto, and IoT markets. It has decades-long relationships with Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL), Samsung (KS:005930), LG and Sharp (OTC:SHCAY), multi-year relationships with SONY, Huawei, ZTE (HK:0763) and Google (NASDAQ:GOOGL), and more recently signed Xiaomi (OTC:XIACF) and Vizio. We view its fixed fee, multi-year license contracts with Apple, Samsung, and Xiaomi as providing a highly predictable stream of recurring revs and CFs," explained the analysts.
They went on to state that the company has a near-term upside from smartphone licensing and a medium-term opportunity from consumer electronics (CE).
"IDCC collects ~$350m in recurring revs from smartphone vendors today (primarily Apple, Samsung, Xiaomi, and Huawei), reflecting ~55% market share in smartphones units. Over the next 3 years, we expect additional smartphone revs of $150m, primarily driven by signing unlicensed Chinese vendors (Oppo, Lenovo, and Vivo)," the analysts wrote. "IDCC's annualized recurring revs from CE have more than doubled over the past 1.5 years, growing to ~$54m/yr from ~$23m/yr. We expect additional CE licensing opportunities to add another ~$100m of annual revs over the next 5 years, primarily driven by signing TV manufacturers like Samsung and LG."
LTE may you also be blessed with ample investment returns.
How about me? Do I get any wishes for luck?
I sold Dec 16, 2022 50 strike puts and took in $4.10 in premium.
So far, so good on that score!
That's just in addition to the stock that I own.
I'm glad that Jeffries agrees that IDCC's stock is on sale.
Jealmc, may your wife collect on her calls.
Hopefully they wait until after next Friday. Wife’s got some 52.5 covered calls yet.
It would be very nice to have Samsung renew their license with a sizable prepayment.

JEFFERIES INITIATES COVERAGE ON IDCC WITH A TARGET OF 80 - what's that about?
Universal Display Corporation Announces Passing of Founder and Visionary Entrepreneur Sherwin I. Seligsohn
4:15 pm ET December 6, 2022 (BusinessWire) Print
Universal Display Corporation (Nasdaq: OLED) today announced that Founder Sherwin I. Seligsohn passed away on December 3, 2022. The entire UDC community mourns the loss of Sherwin, an esteemed visionary, leader and friend, and extends deepest condolences to his family and loved ones.
With an exceptional intellect and fervent curiosity, Sherwin leaves an indelible mark on the display and wireless industries. Born in 1935, Sherwin's immense drive for learning eclipsed conventional teaching methods, so he left high school and pursued his life's interests, including the stock market. Throughout his entire life, Sherwin loved the Jersey Shore and he would regularly spend time on the beach with his young children. Sherwin's curiosity to track the financial markets and get real-time stock quotation updates, without having to leave the beach, sparked the idea of a portable data machine. His pursuit and passion for wireless technology led Sherwin to form his first multi-billion dollar company in 1972, International Mobile Machines Corporation (IMM), now known as InterDigital, Inc. (Nasdaq: IDCC). In 1990, Sherwin stepped down as Chairman of IMM and began to look for his next venture. After reading about novel research work by Drs. Forrest and Thompson in self-emissive organic materials in Nature magazine, Sherwin decided to explore this groundbreaking technology with a visit to the electrical engineering school at Princeton University. There, he observed a green dot, with a 9-volt battery hanging from it, light up for seconds before it expired. From that tiny organic green dot, Sherwin envisioned the future of display technology and founded Universal Display Corporation in June 1994. Fast forward to today, Universal Display has grown and evolved from an R&D start-up to a global leader in the OLED industry.
"Sherwin's extraordinary vision, entrepreneurial passion and unique leadership led to the creation of two of the most impactful enabling technology companies in the global OLED and digital cellular ecosystems," said Steven V. Abramson, President and Chief Executive Officer of Universal Display Corporation. "I had the privilege of working closely with Sherwin for more than 40 years. He was not only my brilliant mentor, but also my wonderful and generous friend. With a long-term strategic vision, Sherwin cultivated and nurtured UDC's guiding principles of curiosity, respect, humility and determination. His mindset of constantly 'thinking outside the box' and courageous conviction have been embedded into the Company's DNA and are key to UDC's remarkable success. Sherwin's incredible legacy will continue to drive the Company forward on its path of growth and innovation. We will miss him tremendously."
In addition to founding Universal Display Corporation, Sherwin I. Seligsohn served as its Chairman of the Board of Directors from June 1995 until June 2022 when he was named Chairman Emeritus. He also served as Chief Executive Officer of UDC from June 1995 through December 2007, and as President from June 1995 through May 1996. From June 1990 to October 1991, Sherwin was Chairman Emeritus of InterDigital, Inc., formerly International Mobile Machines Corporation. He founded InterDigital, and from August 1972 to June 1990 served as its Chairman of the Board of Directors. Sherwin was also a member of the Industrial Advisory Board of the Princeton Institute for the Science and Technology of Materials (PRISM) at Princeton University.

Following is a pdf concerning the tech rivalry between the USA and China. For a shorter reading there is an executive summary (pages 1-4) and a section on 5G (pages 10-13). What has baffled me at times is the importance of IDCC in the telecommunications space for the USA. Yet IDCC only has a current market cap of approximately one and a half billion dollars. Meanwhile there are entertainment and social media companies with much higher market caps.

Finding good stocks at good prices, and discovering which companies are trading under their true value, are what value investors like to focus on.

Cramer is a clown.
Cramer usually says the same thing about IDCC and not much else. He said basically the same thing on Feb 11 2021 when IDCC was in the $60 price range.

Why Did Interdigital Join the Streaming Video Alliance?
InterDigital is involved in many industry alliances and standards bodies dedicated to the transition to streaming video, particularly focused on streaming over cellular wireless networks at scale. We believe our unique research expertise can contribute to the good work of SVTA in a few domains, specifically video compression, network streaming protocols, and energy reduction/sustainability.
What Do You Believe is the Biggest Technical Challenge Facing the Streaming Video Industry the Alliance Can Help Address?
We believe the streaming industry is suffering from the “launch codec” legacy device difficulty with H.264, as broadcast and cable experienced with MPEG-2 a few years ago. It is challenging to migrate to more efficient codecs, despite their dramatic increase in efficiency. In fact, VVC delivers a greater than 3:1 benefit when compared to H.264. We are also concerned with streaming’s relative energy consumption as compared to multicast-capable systems like ATSC 3.0. We believe a hybrid broadcast-broadband approach could mitigate some of the inefficiencies, which would be good for both the industry and the planet.
How Does an Organization Like the Streaming Video Alliance Bring Value to the Industry?
The streaming industry has grown quickly, often leaving gaps in authoritative voices to provide apples-to-apples comparisons of solutions. SVTA members intimately understand quality of experience and the challenges of scale, and this group can be industry’s leading voice, as supported by unbiased testing and reporting.

Moderators |
The principle objective of the iHub message boards is to maintain a high signal-to-noise ratio while encouraging the exchange of all points of view. Moderators are an important part of making our message boards beneficial to all participants and readers. Moderating a stock-specific board, particularly those which are controversial due to many divergent perspectives or newsworthy events, can be a challenging and time consuming role. The time and effort expended by our Members who volunteer their time to fulfill this valuable role is greatly appreciated and our Moderators should be treated with the respect they deserve for donating their time and efforts to the collective benefit of our community. Company-specific boards are the lifeblood of iHub. The Moderators' role is simple to define for company-specific boards:
To promote the civil exchange of on-topic dialog that complies with the Investors Hub Terms of Service. |
It is no accident that neither the above definition nor the Terms of Service makes mention of investment sentiment, shareholder interests, or considerations such as "the good of the company." That is because the TOS are blind to investment sentiment. In order to be a successful Moderator and conduct a board within the scope of iHub's TOS, it is critical that Moderators distinguish their role and privileges as Moderator from their role and privileges as a posting Member. That is often easier said than done, particularly on active boards with both the typical and atypical controversy.
If a post does not fit into any of these categories the post must not be removed.
Some posts fall into a "gray" area and are borderline depending upon the way they are read. As inclusion is favored over exclusion, please err or the side of not removing posts if they are not clear violations. Please use the "Report TOS Violation" button at the bottom of the post with your comments if the post is not egregious in nature and Site Admins will review the message.
Bottom line: Please use your best judgment in removing posts based on the above guidelines and let us know if you have any questions or need any help. And keep in mind that post removal and non-removal have to be given the same emphasis. It is not permissible, for example, to remove a post that calls someone a "pumper" while not also removing a post that calls someone a "basher". Investor sentiment, including your own, can NOT be part of the removal/non-removal decision.
