e.Digital Announces First Quarter Results
Receives Notice of Allowance for New Patent
(firmenpresse) - SAN DIEGO, CA -- (Marketwired) -- 08/14/13 -- (OTCQB: EDIG), a long standing source of innovation and future-defining patented technologies, today reported financial results for its first quarter of fiscal 2014, ended June 30, 2013.
The Company reported a net loss of $71,437 or $(0.00) per share for the first quarter of fiscal 2014, compared to a net loss of $332,983 or $(0.00) per share for the prior year's first quarter. For the first quarter of fiscal 2014 revenues totaled $449,458 compared to $132,546 for the first quarter of the prior year. The most recent quarter included $392,000 of patent license revenues compared to no comparable patent license revenues for the first quarter of the prior year. Operating expenses increased to $520,895 from $465,529 for the prior year's comparable quarter primarily due to patent licensing and litigation costs associated with patent license revenues.
"Positive results from our Flash-R patent monetization efforts allowed us to significantly reduce losses for the quarter compared to the prior year's first quarter," commented Fred Falk, President and CEO of e.Digital. "With the assistance of our patent licensing law firm, Handal & Associates, we have been aggressively pursuing parties believed to infringe the Company's Flash-R patents covering the use of flash memory technologies. We entered into licensing and settlement agreements with multiple defendants and we expect more significant licensing revenues as we progress through the litigation and licensing process.
"Our intellectual property continues to expand as we recently received a notice of allowance from the United States Patent and Trademark Office for our patent application titled System and Method for Managing Information Stored in Semiconductors. The allowance of this patent along with a recently filed continuation, serves as the foundation of our new MicroSignet patent portfolio. The technology allows naturally occurring defects introduced in the semiconductor fabrication process to be used as a 'fingerprint' unique to each integrated circuit. As some of these faults are transient, these 'fingerprints' cannot be copied. So, every device in a system becomes part of rights management and data security. We believe this portfolio will be attractive to manufacturers of semiconductors. This is the third significant technology portfolio now including Flash-R, Nunchi and MicroSignet IP and related patents.
"The marketing of our Nunchi patent portfolio continues through IPmetrics Intellectual Property Consulting, which is managing the valuation and monetization of this portfolio. We believe they are making good progress in getting the portfolio into the hands of the prospective licensees, many of whom are currently conducting due diligence," concluded Falk.
