Grones
It appears that somewhere around 1.5 million shares was in the money at the close. The bulk being in the $25.00 calls, but a lot of deeper in the money calls were left open.
I think the stock has a better than 50% chance of being over $30.00 by the end of December maybe earlier.
I just wish I could understand a CEO talking about maintain a $1.50 a unit by 2012 because by 2012 the selling price should come down. In order to maintain that $1.50 with expectations that by 2012 retail prices will be down then the per unit average now should be a lot higher.
I also find it hard to understand the CEO using the $1.50 per unit number, when above all knows exactly who they are going to license in order to reach the licensed goal they have on the chart. They know its Samsung, and Nokia that will be the big part of that chart at the present time. Yet the CEO still has used the $2.00 per unit number and the maintain the $1.50 number for 2012. How is this possible when the uniformed want to use .50 cents for the present license. What part of something doesn't add up am I missing?
I would hate to think we have a CEO who could be that far off on his projections. If the people not at IDCC know more than the CEO maybe they should get his job, as he surely is not in touch with reality.
I am going to keep the faith and trust that a CEO wouldn't stand up before a conference in England and still not refute the per unit number after standing up and saying a Samsung deal is done. If ever a idea of what the per unit number should be, it should be now, as we know Nokia or think we know Nokia will not pay a higher rate than Samsung. Hence when 2 companies presently have 50% of the market and you haven't altered your number, you would either be a idiot for using them or a out and out right liar. I don;t think Mr Merritt falls into either category.
Just my personal opinion.
