As I’ve stated in numerous posts, I’d expect the PPS to increase the closer we get to the trial date. But, just remember one thing, if VPLM were more transparent with the damages they’re seeking and value of these patents, JUST THINK HOW MUCH HIGHER THE PPS WOULD GO? Cough, cough! LMAO
IMHO
This is one of my favorites “Don’t believe we “are entitled” to info just because someone claims it to be “ material “!
Can one imagine being encouraged into investing into VPLM, and they tell you that you’re not entitled to know material information?
LMAO
Or this might be another favorite; “ I do not want this to go to trial, I WANT IT DONE BEFORE! “ We go to trial and without some settlement, we are years out”!
Since VPLM has some sort of NDA and can’t disclose damages, like in the past, which is one of the reasons the PPS went to $.40+. The only other way for the investment community is going to know the value of the damages, is to go to trial and win! I’m not sure where it would be years out?
This just proves what I’ve been saying, all along!
IMHO
Hopefully, you’re right.
Still a little more on the downside then as we get closer to July we should see the PPS increase more. But, not as much as it should if VPLM were more transparent with the market!
IMHO
Agreed
Number of reasons and isn’t because of any bad news !
If my previous post (s) haven’t explained it, not sure what will.
IMHO
Hey Chick Hick….beep beep
You know what I meant by shareholders have a right to “KNOWING” DAMAGES sought by VPLM! Just as well as you that was a typo aka ATTACK! As you’re doing now.
Again Amazon wouldn’t allow us to benefit from this settlement, that’s why it’s a mystery to everyone.
As for the so called $ .20 for Emil to sell was tongue in cheek! See, it’s all about processing everything. You’re just not capable!
The run to $.45 was of course due to the previous forecast for billions that was blasted to the market. Process it, pal. Winning the IPR’s of court initiated the run DUE TO THE MARKET AND SHAREHOLDERS KNOWING THE POTENTIAL VALUE! Now, can you understand and comprehend this?
As for insider selling not bothering you! Are you kidding me, you called the company crying that you were going to sell because of all the insider selling! And you were told to go ahead and sell. Stop the BS!
The only surprise about the Amazon deal is the shareholders got shunned!!
So, keep in mind, that could very well happen again if things keep going the way you think they should.
Wow, a $.60 target. That would be caving on an acquisition. But you can’t process it. You just want any buyout just to liquidate all your shares. I guess you’re getting scared you’ll have to deposit your shares and the cost and trouble is probably more than the current PPS! LMAO
You know nothing! You’re just a little man with no confidence in himself. It appears you’re not a happy person and it shows. I’m just not going let a loser like you bully me.
IMHO
Agree on trial as this appears the only way we hear what the damages they’re seeking.
If not, shareholders may just get shunned again as they did with the Amazon case.
When someone is unhappy with themselves they have to project anger upon others. It comes from a poor self image. A cantankerous attitude is a sign of trying to prove his worth, when in fact he doesn’t feel he has any, Sad.
IMHO
Talk about not being about to process things.
You have no idea what you’re talking about. You’ve never offered any substance with any of your posts. ZERO. All you want to do is attach anyone that doesn’t agree with you.
First of all, SHAREHOLDERS HAVE A RIGHT TO DAMAGES SOUGHT. DAMAGES ARE MATERIAL INFORMATION ESPECIALLY WHEN A COMPANY BASES ITS SOLE VALUE ON ENFORCEMENT. SHAREHOLDERS AND POTENTIAL SHAREHOLDERS NEED TO KNOW WHAT DAMAGES ARE BEING SOUGHT IN LITIGATION TO MAKE INVESTMENT DECISIONS.
Why in the world would VPLM agree to sign a NDA, to not disclose to the public the damages? Talk about caving. How about caving to Amazon in the first MG, case. BTW, regarding caving. I first was referring to your inept evaluation of VPLM’s patents, when you felt a measly $.20-.30 is an acceptable amount on a buyout. If one would process that, it would equate to an amount with just one case.
To accept a measly $.30 or even $.50 IMHO would be caving. Remember Emil has a few billion shares, how in the world is he going to sell all those shares? We’d all love a buyout with a reasonable fair PPS. Not so you with all your restricted shares, can liquidate as well.
As for when VPLM ran to $.30, $.40, “no damages estimated then”. REALLY, VPLM BLASTED A NUMBER OF TIMES TENS OF BILLIONS OF DOLLARS IN DAMAGES. I believe I even remember $102 billion total, if iI’m not mistaken. So, I call BULLSHIT on this.
Additionally, I’ve never mentioned anything regarding 10%.
Again, the PPS is falling and will keep falling IMHO. Eventually the PPS will rise as we get closer to trial before damages are announced. Gee, you’re really going out on a limb. Huh. Thus, far it’s falling and I anticipate it will continue . FACT.
IMHO
That’s Gomer Pyle, Chick Hicks picked up in his car, saying “ SURPRISE SURPRISE”!!!!
GREAT POST!
LMAO
Just an FYI, that 7/15 Pretrial date was from a 04/5 court entry .
JFYI
If the market and shareholders don’t know the value of these patents, expect it to continue!
I’m probably loading more at $.01
I’m so glad VPLM doesn’t want to litigate in public! Whatever that means! LMAO
I believe once we’re past pretrial, they’ll litigate in public! lol
IMHO
How about after pretrial would that be litigating in public lol
This explains everything!
I heard the defendants will use the current PPS in their negotiations. Example : “Your PPS is $.015 why would we give you $.50?” Which make no sense. This is what I was told.
The value of the patents determines the value of the company. Not the current PPS determines the value of the company.
Therefore, why in the world wouldn’t VPLM care about the PPS?
Good Lord
AMENED SCHEDULING ORDER, six days lol
Understood! But, why “VPLM attorneys of course “? Why wouldn’t they not now do so when we’re closer to trial?
That’s the question. From what I’ve head, Amazon wouldn’t allow us to benefit from the so called settlement and not allow us to announce whatever it was!
Sure hope VPLM doesn’t cave again to this, going forward.
INHO
Yes, 2:00 pm with T-Mobile July 9th Final pretrial Conference
Also, Emil file his Initial statement of ownership with 787,916 shares. This is usually filed prelude to receiving options or buying stock! Hmmmm
IMHO
T-Mobile finally on the docket for Final Pretrial conference July 9th 2:00.
Let’s just hope once pretrial is over, VPLM disclosures “material” information on the damages they’re seeking!
What do you mean by VPLM’s attorneys of course? Are you saying VPLM’s attorneys don’t want the market and shareholders to know the damages they’re seeking? Really? We have a right to know! Why the heck do you think the PPS is tanking?
You’re saying they have decided not to allow their shareholders and potential shareholders knowledge of the potential value of their patents and investment? This is material information!!!!!!
I call BULLSHIT on this!
Do you know any interested party is going to use the current PPS in their negotiations. This is why it’s extremely important the potential value of our investment is known.
Years ago, when they first filed these lawsuits on the ‘825/‘005 they blasted tens of billions of dollars in PR’s!!!!!
And the formula on outstanding then and now versus IPR wins and billions in damages earned, is freaking night and day!
Finally, how do you know they’re going to announce the settlement amount? What happens to the PPS if they pull the same disrespect they pulled on their shareholders last year and don’t announce anything? How’s the PPS going to respond then?
This is all the reason they need to get to at least the trial where they can’t hind the damages. Which IMHO is coming from the defendant.
Whose attorneys are not allowing it? Verizon’s? VPLM’s? Why would VPLM agree to that? That’s the question? Who’s suing who?
Damages sought are material information shareholders are untitled and required to know!!
Where are you coming up with $.15-.20? Out of thin air?
Highly unlikely there’ll be any pretrial settlement! Why would Verizon do so?
Keep dreaming. We’re going to trial, unless Emil caves and takes whatever he can to liquidate all his shares.
IMHO
PPS went to $.40+ years ago on just winning two final written IPR decisions. And you think $.15-.20 is good?
Until the market knows the actual damages VPLM is seeking with the first case against Verizon, I’d expect the PPS to continue to fall.
IMHO
I apologize, I got you confused with the other poster who said this would be over weeks ago.
Hey pal, why don’t you do us all a favor, since you say you speak to Emil on a regular basis. Please ask him when is VPLM, ever going to lets us know what are the damages they’re seeking from Verizon. Is he going to shun us like with the Amazon case or will the shareholders know what value our patents are worth.
I’ll give VPLM the benefit of the doubt, up until pretrial. Then all bets are off, if they don’t come to a settlement or acquisition, shareholders need to know.
Because if they settle with an NDA, the PPS won’t do anything. All more the reason we need to go to trial and win in court.
If ParkerVision, Netlist and Virnetx can win in court, so can we.
IMHO
As I may have mentioned, I was told Amazon wasn’t going to let us benefit from their settlement.
Who really knows. Apparently, the damages weren’t much as the three remaining.cases.
This is why we need to know what the damages they’re seeking! If not, we’re going to get the same results. That’s why going to trial may be best for the PPS.
One would think after pretrial VPLM would be more transparent to their shareholders and potential shareholders.
IMHO
You should be more concerned with the market knowing what the damages VPLM is seeking than a few insiders selling sales. It’s meaningless.
IMHO
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
