Jim, thanks so much for that uplifting post......2006 will be a very good year for all of us!

Billion dollar profit or billion dollar gross sale number? Big difference.

Can you imagine what $1 Billion dollars in profit would mean to a company with a 50 million share float?

Question..Since IDCC filed an 8K incorporating their Presentation..Would an Investor be led to believe that the Company is using a 3G License Rate of 1% in their Page 7 Representation as GOAL."Secure revenue on every 3G mobile device..Close to one billion mobile phone shipped in 2009..60% to be 3G".Followed by their Representation of Page 8 that has a chart that indicates Avg.$ per device and in each instance (25%-50%-75%-100%) they forecast revenue , computed on a formula of 1% of 600 Million 3G phones (60% of 1 Billion)? TIA

Jim,

Please express our gratitude to the person who provided the notes from the Needham conference.

If you happen to communicate with them, I too am interested if they heard the comment on Motorola.

Thanks for sharing that Jimlur!

I agree with Claremont and L2V, aside from a technical glitch with the audio that was out of IDCC's control, I too thought the presentation was all-in-all pretty good. Of course, it covered much old ground that we here are aware of, but IDCC shared some of their new, evolving ideas and direction as well. Remember, most in the audience at Needham probably know far less about IDCC than even the average poster here.

I think it was presented in a positive and professional manner, properly aimed at the audience it was meant for: i.e. the analysts, brokers, fund managers, etc. that were present at the conference. It was not meant to be some flashy, glitzy infomercial... pressuring the audience for one quick sale or 5 easy payments of $19.99. After all, they are not selling Vegematics or Ginsu knives or even George Foreman's grill; they are trying to garner interest and instill confidence in IDCC as a viable investment, an investment creating long term value.

Using Janet instead of Fagan, while making the presentation "sexier" for some here (including myself, hehe), would probably not have added anything of substance for the target audience. This is not to say that Janet is not qualified to give a substantive presentation, and I LOOK forward to seeing more participation by Janet in the future.

Granted, while Fagan's oratorical skills insure he will not be mistaken for the reincarnation of William Jennings Bryan, utilizing the CFO of the company does add an element of credibility to the presentation that maybe some previous presenters, Rip for instance, did not have.

From your post... "Can you imagine what $1 Billion dollars in profit would mean to a company with a 50 million share float? That would be $20 a share earning per year and a share price somewhere between $200 and $400 a share."

Wow! My first thought was... "great, that is a lofty goal to strive for!"

My second thought was... "It's a good thing the person making that statement remains anonymous. Can you imagine the ridicule that would be inflicted upon me or another long here if we had made such a prediction?" Many already think I'm CRAZY... that would seal the deal, LOL!

Thanks, Jim, for the report.

I sure hope that providing technical solutions can get more companies licensed. And I want to see the effect by the end of Feb, at least for some small to mid OEM/ODMs(in fact, any new license will do).

Two comments:

Very focused on signing more than 1 tier 1 manufacturer to 3G NOW.

I remember the original words were "one or more tier 1 manufacturers...".

I also liked the reference to the 2009 $1.2 billion sale number. It was handled very well. Basically the revenue will be generated depending upon the average selling price of the 3G units. If they go down in 2009 they make less. If they do not achieve 100% penetration they make less. It gives a clarity to the entire situation. It also allows them to show potential without sounding like they are hyping the stock.

Can you imagine what $1 Billion dollars in profit would mean to a company with a 50 million share float? That would be $20 a share earning per year and a share price somewhere between $200 and $400 a share.

LOL, Anyone really believes this kind of fantasy thinking?

1. Handset ASP will go down as market matures, that's for sure.

2. 100% coverage only exist in dream. 90% and I will give our management two-thumb up.

3. Even if 1&2 holds, the expense will go up. When revenue reaches 1 billion, the expense will be over 200 million. I can bet on this with anyone on this board. Name your wage.

4. Now even if 1&2 holds and expense won't go up. 1.2b revenue gives 1b profit BEFORE TAX. What will be the profit?
about 600 million. Can't believe people alway forget tax part. Maybe those people never pay tax in real life. Maybe I should ring IRS for a checkup... LOL.

Now re-do the calculation.
