Friday, January 11, 2:44 PM To little surprise, a bankruptcy judge has signed off on the $525M sale of Eastman Kodak's (EKDKQ.PK -2.4%) patent portfolio to a consortium managed by RPX (RPXC) and Intellectual Ventures, and featuring a who's who of tech giants. The approval clears the way for Kodak to obtain $830M in financing and come out of Chapter 11 in 1H13. Earlier this week, Kodak, which plans to focus on business solutions going forward, announced a deal with private JK Imaging in which JK will sell cameras under the Kodak brand. 3 Comments [Tech]
Wednesday, December 19, 2012, 10:26 AM More on Kodak: The Next Web claims the consortium organized by RPX and Intellectual Ventures includes Apple and Google, as well as Samsung, Facebook, HTC, Fuji, Microsoft, Amazon, RIM, Adobe, Huawei, and Shutterfly. It looks as if the companies decided to join forces so as to keep Kodak's IP from further enriching patent lawyers. Apple, RIM, and HTC have been involved in legal disputes with Kodak over the patents. 1 Comment [Tech]
Wednesday, December 19, 2012, 9:23 AM Eastman Kodak (EKDKQ.PK) is selling its imaging patent portfolio for $525M to a consortium led by RPX (RPXC) and patent troll Intellectual Ventures. Kodak adds the deal settles existing IP litigation between the parties. The sale figure exceeds the $500M threshold needed for a $793M financing deal to clear. Apple (AAPL) and Google (GOOG) were previously reported to have teamed up for a bid. (PR) Comment! [Tech, M&A]
Friday, November 16, 2012, 1:59 PM Alcatel-Lucent (ALU -3.4%) is still eying patent sales as a way to raise needed cash, says CFO Paul Tufano. Alcatel, which has nearly 30K issued patents and 15K pending patents, tried working with RPX (RPXC) earlier this year to monetize its IP, but that deal didn't go as planned. Reuters previously reported Alcatel is thinking of selling its declining submarine optical networking and enterprise phone businesses, moves Goldman estimates could raise up to €400M ($509M). 1 Comment [Tech, M&A]
Wednesday, September 5, 2012, 2:31 PM Alcatel-Lucent's (ALU -3.2%) board will reportedly hammer out the details of the company's restructuring plan at a meeting next week. Items for discussion include which businesses will be affected by the planned layoff of 5K workers, and how to monetize 29K patents, given a deal with RPX (RPXC) has fallen short of expectations. French unions are worried about the job cuts, which will trim the cash-burning and debt-laden telecom equipment vendor's workforce by less than 7%. 13 Comments [Tech]
Wednesday, August 1, 2012, 11:54 AM Patent protection services firm RPX (RPXC -22.1%) crumbles to all-time lows following its Q2 report. While revenue of $55.2M (+42% Y/Y) and EPS of $0.29 beat by $4.2M and $0.07, respectively, RPX is guiding for Q3 revenue of $46.7M-$47.1M and EPS of $0.15-$0.16, below a consensus of $49.9M and $0.21. Full-year guidance is in-line. BofA has downgraded shares to Neutral. Comment! [Tech, Earnings, On the Move]
Friday, July 27, 2012, 4:25 PM Two consortiums are bidding on Eastman Kodak's (EKDKQ.PK) 1,100 patents, the WSJ reports. One features Apple (AAPL), Microsoft (MSFT), and patent troll Intellectual Ventures. Another features Android partners Google (GOOG), Samsung (SSNLF.PK), LG, and HTC, along with RPX (RPXC). Bids are due on Monday. The report comes after the ITC dismissed a Kodak suit related to an image-preview patent, and Apple lost a bid to move a separate Kodak suit out of bankruptcy court. 6 Comments [Tech]
Monday, June 18, 2012, 2:20 PM Bernstein thinks Intel's (INTC) purchase of $375M worth of mobile patents from InterDigital (IDCC +28.9%) amounts to a good deal, noting Intel's price of ~$220K/patent is well below the $750K/patent paid for Nortel's IP last year (ed: of course, not all patents are created equal). Deutsche, meanwhile, thinks the deal bodes well for Alcatel-Lucent (ALU), which has tasked RPX (RPXC) with monetizing its ~29K patents and applications, and thereby improve the company's liquidity situation. 2 Comments [Tech, Quick Ideas]
Tuesday, February 14, 2012, 2:54 PM RPX (RPXC +2%) gains on positive comments out of Cowen today, saying that any pullback in the shares would be a buying opportunity. Cowen calls it a unique high growth story, citing its renewal rate, the monetization of its patents and its deal with Alcatel Lucent (ALU +3.4%). Comment! [On the Move, Quick Ideas, Tech]
Friday, February 10, 2012, 9:53 AM Alcatel-Lucent (ALU +14.4%) says it is working with RPX Corp. (RPXC +7.2%) on a plan to license its portfolio of ~29,000 patents in areas such as fixed and wireless communications, semiconductors and network security. RPX buys and licenses patents and helps big companies avoid patent lawsuits; ALU expects to earn several hundred million euros from the arrangement. Comment! [Tech, On the Move]
Friday, September 16, 2011, 9:44 AM RPX Corp. (RPXC), a provider of patent licensing services to major corporations, is up 10.7% after pricing a follow-on offering of 3M shares at $20.49/share. RPX had previously raised $159.6M in a May IPO. Comment! [Tech, On the Move]
Friday, September 16, 2011, 9:00 AM Premarket gainers: NDN +11%. RPXC +4%. NCP +4%. BCS +4%. LYG +3%. MTU +3%. DB +3%.
Losers: RIMM -23%. AGP -10%. PCX -7%. RTH -3%. Comment! [On the Move]
