ParkerVision Reports First Quarter 2024 Results

 

JACKSONVILLE, Fla., May 14, 2024 – 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 months ended March 31, 2024.

 

 2024 Summary and Recent Developments

 

 

●

The Company is awaiting a decision from the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit (CAFC) following the November 6, 2023 oral arguments in ParkerVision v. Qualcomm (Middle District of Florida - Orlando).  

 

 

●

In January 2024, the Company received favorable claim construction rulings in its patent infringement actions against MediaTek and Realtek in the Western District of Texas.

 
  ●

MediaTek is scheduled for a jury trial in December 2024.
  ● Realtek is scheduled for a jury trial in January 2025.

 

  ● A combined claim construction hearing is scheduled in mid-June 2024 for pending actions against Texas Instruments, NXP Semiconductors and the second action against MediaTek.

 

Jeffrey Parker, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “During the next eighteen months, we have four scheduled jury trials in our patent infringement cases in the Western District of Texas, beginning with MediaTek in December 2024.  Additionally, we have a number of cases currently stayed, including patent infringement actions against Qualcomm and Apple in the Middle District of Florida, LG in New Jersey, and TCL and LGE in the Western District of Texas.  These cases are stayed pending the outcome of other active cases.  We continue to be willing to negotiate a fair business arrangement with each of the defendants, however, we are also eager to present our facts to a jury."

ParkerVision reported a net loss for the first quarter of 2024 of $0.7 million, or $0.01 per common share, compared to net income of $13.1 million, or $0.16 per common share for the first quarter of 2023.   The 2023 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.
