I wonder how you book that to the financials and disclose it in the footnote. Hmmmmm…
'We lost a few billion, but our attorneys say that a 5 year delay will not result in treble damages or ongoing royalties, so we believe them. We paid them, of course, but only at a rate of $2,000 per hour. Please buy our stock and finance us.'
And...
'We are paying out auditors, E&Y, about $8M per year to agree with them.'
No offense...just having some fun.
