ParkerVision Reports Third Quarter 2024 Results
ParkerVision, Inc. (OTCQB:PRKR) ("ParkerVision" or the "Company"), a developer and marketer of technologies and products for wireless applications, today announced results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024.
2024 Summary and Recent Developments
In September 2024, the Company received a favorable decision from the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit (CAFC) in ParkerVision v. Qualcomm and the case has been remanded back to the Middle District of Florida, Orlando division for trial.
The parties have requested a scheduling conference in December 2024 to determine any remaining issues for resolution prior to trial and to establish a trial calendar.
Including the Qualcomm case in Orlando, Florida, the Company has 13 total patent infringement cases against seven different defendants, including four currently scheduled for jury trials in the Western District of Texas in 2025.
On November 4, 2024, the Company filed a petition for Writ of Certiorari with the United States Supreme Court challenging the CAFC's practice of issuing summary affirmations rather than opinions.
This petition stems from two CAFC rulings in June 2024 affirming the PTAB invalidation of portions of two of the Company's patents that were challenged in IPRs by TCL and LGE.
Jeffrey Parker, CEO of ParkerVision, commented, "In September, ParkerVision received a long-awaited ruling from the CAFC in our patent infringement case against Qualcomm. The court agreed with ParkerVision on all three issues under appeal and provided supporting guidance on each. We are now seeking a jury trial in this case in the Middle District of Florida. We believe the CAFC's detailed opinion will be helpful in resolving disputes and clarifying key issues remaining between the parties, and we look forward to bringing this case to trial after a lengthy ten-year wait."
Mr. Parker continued, "The CAFC decision to remand the Qualcomm case back to district court results in an increase in our estimated probability of the future collection of damages from Qualcomm. Accordingly, the estimated fair value of our secured contingent payment obligation to our litigation funder increased by approximately $10 million this quarter, bringing it back in line with the estimated value of this obligation in early 2022, prior to the district court's now vacated summary judgment ruling."
Financial Results
ParkerVision reported a net loss for the third quarter of 2024 of $10.8 million, or $0.12 per common share, compared to a net loss of $3.9 million, or $0.05 per common share for the third quarter of 2023. On a year-to-date basis, the Company reported a net loss for the first nine months of 2024 of $11.8 million, or $0.13 per common share, compared to net income of $10.6 million, or $0.12 per common share for the first nine months of 2023.
The increase in net loss for the three months ended September 30, 2024, is primarily the result of a $9.7 million non-cash charge for a change in fair value of the Company's contingent payment obligations. The increase in fair value of the Company's contingent payment obligations results from changes in estimated amounts and timing of projected future cash flows from patent infringement actions. These estimates were impacted by the favorable CAFC decision received in September 2024 that remanded the Qualcomm case back to district court for trial.
The 2023 year-to-date net income was the result of a $25 million patent license and settlement agreement entered into in February 2023, net of contingent fees and expenses
The Company used approximately $2.1 million in cash for operations for the first nine months of 2024 and ended the quarter with $0.8 million in cash and cash equivalents.
Subsequent to September 30, 2024, approximately $0.64 million in outstanding convertible notes were converted, at the holders' option, into shares of our common stock at conversion prices ranging from $0.10 to $0.25 per share.
