Q: What are your thoughts on Q2 results for Quarterhill ? They have a market cap of $230 m , but net cash of $136 m . Have they received their US$109 court award from Apple yet ? They are buying back 10% of their shares , but that still leaves a lot of cash that they seem to be allocating to M & A activity . Would not a dividend increase or a special dividend be appropriate in these circumstances ?

Q: Hi there, can you provide insight regarding Apple and the expiration of the thirty days they had to appeal? Seems as though both parties are being very quiet regarding the matter! I can't find any information or news release as I write this question. What would your experience suggest here, serious negotiations going on behind the scene...to finally settle all current and future patent claims/contracts? Possibly, a real big win for QTRH going forward with Apple?
Any insight would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

Q: Hi.
Now that their buyback is substantially complete, would you have any comments on where this may be headed in the short to medium term? I find it a difficult company to evaluate.

Q: So, the Apple saga finally over and quarterhill finally getting paid, albeit not as much as previously thought and no more appeals allowed by Apple! Stock up nicely today, doing a dutch auction. Still own lots of it. Where do you see this in three years time? Looks like the ship is being turned around.

Q: Hello, what is your opinion of Quaterhill in today's market? I have owned this for sometime in a TFSA and have been in a losing position for a long time just collecting the div. Would you sell this take the loss and move the money into something with a potential better return like ATD.B, NTR or PLC these are also owned in the same account. Or would you wait another quarter or two? The virtual AGM is on April 15th. Thanks
Q: It seems in QTRH's earnings release the numbers are quite varied - rev's up 90% yoy? Working capital up $ 22 mil yet cash and cash equivalents virtually unchanged? Please help me understand what looks like a good quarter. Question is ... how good?

Q: Quarterhill wins the Apple court case (again) and has been awarded $85.M
Can Apple appeal this judgement? This must be considered a substantial amount of money going into the QTRH coffers. What would you think this should do to the value of the company? It seemed someone knew about the award before qtrh halted the stock yesterday as the stock price jumped and
volume was over eight times the average.

Q: this stock is down almost 15% since the first of December! Other than the discontinuation of the US listing, I have not seen any additional news to justify the fall in price. Nor should it be based on tax loss selling, as at least technically, this should not be in play for this large of a drop.
are you aware of some other info that is not indicated in there news info?

Q: Quarterhill has decided to discontinue their listing on the Nasdaq... they have indicated that this will save them about $1,000,000. annually.
Was the U.S. listing that beneficial to them and do you believe that this will affect their long term growth opportunities? Also, have you heard of any rumbling in the market place regarding their lawsuit with Apple?

Q: Hello 5i team,
I am curious about the market reaction to Quarterhill's earning results. They did not hit it out of the park but was a decent earnings either way minus the decrease in recurring revenue. Is the price decrease simply market mechanics or is it the reaction to the decline in recurring revenue?
