Intellectual property licensing company, e.Digital Corporation (OTCMKTS:EDIG), declined sharply in July after the company decided to file for bankruptcy. The share price went from trading at the level of $0.03 to touch $0.0007 on July 14, 2017. We went through the latest news as well as quarterly reports and concluded that the market’s reaction may be exaggerated.

The company is a holding company that manages IP assets. The business objective of the company as stated in the annual report is:

“e.Digital Corporation They are an intellectual property licensing company developing and pursuing licensing of three intellectual property portfolios: context and interpersonal awareness systems (“Nunchi®” technology), advanced data security technologies (“microSignet™” technology) and secure communication technologies (“Synap™” technology).” Source

More specifically, according to the company’s website, Nunchi operates assets in the “areas of health, wellness, emergency response, security monitoring, personal safety, social and professional networking among others.” microSignet operates assets in the semiconductor sector. Synap owns intellectual property that is useful for the security and communications industry.

How does the company make the money?

e.Digital owns intellectual property that is used to help businesses develop its activities, and also finds companies infringing on EDIG’s patent rights to sue them. There are many other competitors operating the same business model in the United States. They all have the same necessity; a lot of cash. Why? Because cash is needed to launch law actions against other companies. If the IP agents run out of cash, they cannot operate any more. But, they leave a great gem hidden on the balance sheet; the patents accumulated.

Recent Developments

The company seemed to be operating normally. On Feb. 14, 2017, it declared the results for its last quarter. We will have a look at the balance sheet later, but the financial figures from the income statement seemed very good.

Net income of $73,365 for the third quarter of fiscal 2017 as compared to a net loss of $363,869 for the prior year’s same period.
Two patent licenses signed in the quarter with revenues of $151,000, while no revenue was reported in the same period in 2016.
Additionally, the company updated the market regarding its operations, and nothing dramatic was announced. These were the most remarkable words of Fred Falk, the CEO of e.Digital:

“The cyber security space is a notoriously difficult space to penetrate without long standing relationships or the financial resources to support product development, but can be very lucrative once a foothold is established. We continue to meet with potential investors and partners that could allow us to bring products to this burgeoning and expansive industry which is expected to grow to $170 billion annually by 2020.” Source

New patents were announced in 2017. On May 3, 2017, it was reported that e.Digital Corporation announced that the United States Patent and Trademark Office had granted them U.S. Patent 9,641,664. Fred Falk, President and CEO of e.Digital Corporation, said:

“This is the tenth patent granted into the foundational Nunchi® patent portfolio that we believe is poised to play a key role in the future of mobile communications and the Internet of Things. The claims of this new patent address specific applications of Nunchi in transportation and infrastructure, as well as providing additional coverage in the growing Internet of Things space.” Source

Additionally, new directors decided to work for the company. Would these directors join a company that is close to bankruptcy?. Not at all. On Oct. 12, 2016, e.Digital Corporation declared the appointment of Don Springer as an independent director. The CFO, MarDee Haring-Layton, was appointed as Corporate Secretary. Fred Falk, President and CEO of Digital, uttered these words:

“Don is an experienced international executive and has built a successful business providing companies, their board of directors, and executives, with valuable knowledge and direction as a result of his extensive career. We are excited that he has joined our Board, outside of his business, and we look forward to benefitting from his judgement and expertise.” Sourc
