That's not quite what MPartners said. They reported that potential licensees would likely be delayed because IDCC feels potential buyers would prefer it that way.
I am not a big fan of speaking in absolutes. In light of the buyout speculation, the news release regarding seeking "strategic alternatives", and the corresponding MPartners report - it made sense for investors to temper any expectations regarding new or updated agreements.
But with today's news release, perhaps things have changed in that regard. It seems to be we are in new territory with IDCC. Things are moving fast and the story is being changed/updated at a quick pace. With that in mind we should all respect the fluidity that a M&A environment creates.
Someone said that they halted all licensing during these potential buyout talks.
