Parkervision Stock Price, News & Analysis

ParkerVision (OTCQB:PRKR) has filed a Rule 54(b) motion requesting the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Florida to enter final judgment on noninfringement of receiver claims in its patent infringement lawsuit against Qualcomm. The company also seeks to sever and stay remaining transmit claims pending appeal of the court's May 2025 claim construction order.

The motion follows the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit's September 2024 reversal of a 2022 summary judgment order. The recent 2025 claim construction order, issued after Qualcomm's third claim construction request, prevents ParkerVision from asserting its receiver claims. The company aims to avoid potentially holding two separate trials and seeks immediate appellate review of the 2025 construction ruling.

ParkerVision (OTCQB:PRKR) has responded to a recent U.S. District Court ruling in its 11-year patent infringement lawsuit against Qualcomm. The ruling, which only affects receiver patent claims, interprets certain patent terms in a way ParkerVision believes conflicts with Federal Circuit guidance. CEO Jeffrey Parker argues that their patents clearly show RF down-conversion occurs at a switch (UFT Module), not at capacitors as suggested by the ruling. The company contends that Qualcomm is aware capacitors cannot perform down conversion and that this interpretation contradicts both patent claims and Qualcomm's actual product operations. The dispute stems from technology ParkerVision believes has enabled billions of wireless chips. The company is considering legal options, including potential appellate review, to protect its intellectual property rights.

The shelf registration's terms and pricing would be determined at the time of any offering. ParkerVision, which specializes in developing and licensing radio-frequency (RF) technologies, is currently involved in several patent enforcement actions in the U.S. to protect its intellectual property rights.
