Network-1 Reports Second Quarter Results

NEW YORK, NY / ACCESSWIRE / August 12, 2021 / Network-1 Technologies, Inc. (NYSE American:NTIP), a company specializing in the development, licensing, and protection of its intellectual property assets, today announced financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2021.

Network-1 had no revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and revenue of $18,692,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2021, as compared to revenue of $55,000 and $216,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively. The increase in revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was due to revenue of $18,692,000 from Network-1's resolution of a contractual dispute with Cisco Systems, Inc. concerning the licensing of Network-1's Remote Power Patent.

Network-1 realized a net loss of $783,000 or $0.03 per share basic and diluted for the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared with a net loss of $584,000 or $0.02 per share basic and diluted for the three months ended June 30, 2020. The increased net loss was primarily due to an increase in litigation costs of $184,000.

Network-1 realized net income of $8,668,000 or $0.36 per share basic and $0.35 diluted for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared with a net loss of $1,921,000 or $0.08 per share basic and diluted for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The increase in net income was primarily due to $18,692,000 of revenue from the resolution of a contractual dispute with Cisco during the three months ended March 31, 2021.

At June 30, 2021, Network-1 had cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities of $53,775,000 and working capital of $51,611,000. Network-1 believes based on its current cash position it will have sufficient cash to fund its operations for the foreseeable future.

On July 26, 2021, Network-1 agreed to settle its patent litigation against Hewlett-Packard Company and Hewlett-Packard Enterprise Company (collectively, "HP") pending in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Texas, Tyler Division, for infringement of Network-1's Remote Power Patent. Under the terms of the settlement agreement, Hewlett-Packard Enterprise Company paid Network-1 $17,000,000 in full settlement of the litigation and HP received a fully paid license and release to the Remote Power Patent for its full term (which expired on March 7, 2020), which applies to sales of Power over Ethernet ("PoE") products by HP and its wholly owned subsidiary Aruba Networks, LLC. The HP settlement will be recorded in the quarter ended September 30, 2021.

On June 9, 2020, the Board of Directors of Network-1 approved the continuation of Network-1's dividend policy which consists of semi-annual cash dividends of $0.05 per share ($0.10 per share annually) which dividends are anticipated to be paid in March and September of each year. On February 23, 2021, Network-1's Board of Directors declared a semi-annual cash dividend of $0.05 per share with a payment date of March 31, 2021 to all shareholders of record as of March 16, 2021. Network-1's dividend policy undergoes a periodic review by the Board of Directors and is subject to change at any time depending upon Network-1's earnings, financial requirements and other factors existing at the time.
