I did state that in an earlier post.

We will be lucky beyond our imagination if we get 45 positive results. The 174 are simply a guess of potential infringers based on what I believe was a pretty time consuming project where specific company products appeared to utilize a portion or all of an edig patent.

The results will only be known at to the validity of the infringer after a settlement or the court decides in our favor.

The chance of getting even 45 to compensate edig for any patent violation, I think is not high, in fact pretty slim, of course others will state that the totals mentioned by edig is more appropriate in evaluation the future income stream and attempt to pump up the issue.
