My theory on all this is that TPL is now the new (improved) Swartz financing machine for PTSC -
Swartz was there to supply capital to keep Patriot afloat while they tried to market the Ignite - TPL wins in licensing will fuel PTSC in the same, except we`ll be giving up far fewer warrants and getting much more cash from TPL litigation bounties.
So there may not be recurring revs, or they may not be to the expectation of shareholders. But what the settlement wins from licenses will do, will be to provide a more generous income stream that can be then used to fuel a far higher profile technical marketing campaign, finally helping to lift the Ignite revenues off the launchpad.
The specs on this chip are tremendous. The bechmark tests are also exceptional. The word needs to get out on a major scale.
I bet Pohl keeps the heat on TPL to negotiate for closes, getting whatever they can.
IMHO...
