Operating Results for the Quarter Ended June 30, 2014

 

·As of June 30, 2014, we had approximately $34.2 million in current assets, including $31.7 million of cash and $2.3 million in court deposits in Germany and Brazil to enforce injunctions against ZTE Corporation and certain of its subsidiaries. We expect the court deposits to be returned in the next 12 months.

·Our net loss from continuing operations was approximately $10.0 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2014 (including $4.1 million of non-cash costs), mainly attributable to the following:

·General and administrative, and other expenses of $1.4 million.

 

·Revenue from settlements and licensing of $0.8 million.

 

·Non-cash expenses of $4.1 million mainly related to equity-based compensation and amortization of our patents, and $0.3 million of non-cash income related to the valuation of warrants.

 

·During the quarter ended June 30, 2014, we received $10.7 million in cash from the exercise of warrants and options.

 

·On a per share basis, our total net loss (from both continuing and discontinued operations) was $0.12 per basic share, compared to a net loss of $0.13 per basic share for the quarter ended June 30, 2013.
