2. | Current Developments, Future Operations, Liquidity and Capital Resources
The condensed financial statements have been prepared assuming that we will continue to operate as a going concern, which contemplates that we will realize returns on our assets and satisfy our liabilities and commitments in the ordinary course of business. Our consolidated financial statements do not reflect any adjustments related to the outcome of which uncertainty. Our future is highly dependent on our ability to successfully resolve our current litigation, capitalize on our portfolio of patents, generate positive cash flows and/or obtain borrowings or raise capital to meet our liquidity needs. As previously announced in August 2013, Lenovo Information Products Co., Ltd. (“Lenovo”), our only material customer, notified us of their intention to cease offering our Constellation product, the power adapter we designed and developed for Lenovo, and terminated its relationship with us. We completed shipping product to Lenovo during our third quarter ended November 30, 2013. The loss of Lenovo as a customer has had a material adverse impact on our results of operations. We have reduced and/or eliminated certain operating expenses to minimize future losses and cash burn and will continue our efforts in this regard. Two of our recent litigation matters have concluded. In the Chicony Power Technology, Co. Ltd., (“Chicony”) matter, effective as of May 15, 2014, Chicony entered into a settlement agreement with us that dismissed all claims between the two parties arising from the litigation. Pursuant to the terms of the settlement agreement, Chicony agreed to pay us $7.6 million in lieu of the jury’s net award of $9.7 million or any other related costs or fees. Settlement amounts of $4.0 million and $3.6 million were paid on May 16, 2014 and May 30, 2014, respectively. Of the $7.6 million, we received $6.5 million, net of $1.1 million in attorneys’ fees and other costs. In connection with the settlement, certain contract manufacturer costs payable to Chicony totaling $1.1 million were discharged and reflected as a reduction of cost of revenues. In our litigation with ACCO Brands USA LLC and its Computer Products Group division (collectively “Kensington”), on February 4, 2014, we entered into a confidential settlement and licensing agreement with an effective date of February 1, 2014 that dismisses all claims between the two parties arising from this matter. We believe that our patent portfolio covering key technical aspects of our products could potentially generate a future revenue stream based upon royalties paid to us by others for the use of some or all of our patents in third party products. We continue to explore opportunities to expand, protect, and monetize our patent portfolio, including through the sale or licensing of our patent portfolio. We may or may not resume our traditional activities of providing innovative charging solutions for battery powered devices. There are no assurances that any of these possible opportunities or activities will occur or be successful. We are currently generating de minimis revenues and have ceased traditional operations. Our future is highly dependent on our ability to successfully resolve our current litigation, capitalize on our portfolio of patents, generate positive cash flows and obtain borrowings or raise capital to meet our future liquidity needs. We continue to analyze a range of alternatives to build and/or preserve value for its stakeholders, including, but not limited to, exploring additional investment and incremental financing from current and/or new investors, the engagement of advisors to assist in exploring strategic options for us as well as identifying potential partnerships for the purpose of monetizing some or all of the our patent portfolio and past, present, and future infringement claims. There can be no assurances that we will be successful in implementing any of these alternatives, or if implemented, that any of these alternatives will successfully preserve or increase shareholder value.
