Quarterhill Inc T.QTRH

Great idea -Merger or buyout by Vernetx

[astutein]

V-guerriero What a great idea.  Hope managment is reading.

Vernetx isa troll and technology companywith lots of cash.  with a merger and acquisition all of our cases including Apple could be pursued by Quarterhill companies including IRD.   Vernetx will have good use of its cash which is hundreds of millions and have a company with 68 lawsuits  3 majors, Google et al,  Micron .   All existing licensing contracts, ownership  of our Apple suit.

A merger price could attract us $ 6.00 with same management and combined new Board of Directors   Our cash plus Vernetx would be monsterous.  Like you said there might not be little opposition fromVernetx shareholders.   Management --go for it.

Not sure why VirnetX hasn't already taken a run at us.  Net of cash on hand out enterprise value is $120M.  They could sell IRD for almost that value, maybe more, and would get 20k patents for the takeover premium.  And if it was a $1 takeover premium that would be fully paid for by eliminating QTRH management.   Essentially, would get 20k patents for free.   This

I agree with this sentiment. VirnetX has already recived over US$400 Mil in cash in its last Apple lawsuit and is expected to get another US$600 Million from Apple on this new case. For VHC to buy out QTRH that includes IRD and all of WiLANs current open cases and the 20+k in patents. A US$350Mill buy out would be a steal of the year, and shareholders would all be happy with a $4 a share buyout

Send am email to their lawyer. You know, the one who works for us now. ;)

Kendall Larsen is the man that needs to pull the trigger. The market has no idea QTRH is even alive and management at QTRH will be cursing them selves for not buying more shares. If VirnetX does in fact pulls the trigger, this deal will be the deal of year for VHC. Come on Larsen get it done!

Blackspade It would take $ 6.00 at for us sh's to accept deal in my opinion. A merger would be a fantastic deal fo both companies.  We will have close  to 1 billion in cash as well as our Apple case plus 68 other Wilan cases with 3 major. ( Google et al, Micron,Motorola &  Virntex would  get IRD, licensing , patents the whole deal..   Virnetx I understand

[wilander]

I'd love $6.  I'd take $5. But I'd only take $5 if was within a month or two. After so long here, I would probably take the immediate bird in the hand and decide where to go from there.  (Stay, sell, reduce percentage, who knows) But the closer we get to the Apple settlement (not a bird in the hand yet)  the higher the price tag gets. If accumulation for some sort of

Given what's happened to Gamestop this past week, I'll accept $500 for each QTRH share. Canadian dollars would be okay. Doesn't need to be US dollars.

[astutein]

Blackspade-  How about sending email or to be forwarded to Kendall Larsenre exploring merger with Quarterhill and benefits to both. We have common legal team on Apple( Mckoo llp with Jeffrey Lampton.  They could get quarterhill for $ 6.00 ? and get back $ 300 million from Apple, get all our patents,68 court cases.   shareholders of Virnetx .wouldnot disapprove potential Apple.

[astutein]

v-guerrierriero,blackspade, astutein, wilander so far have expressed idea of merger or buyout by virnetx.  Virnetx is a patent troll 500 million or more in cash with similar interests to Quarterhill.   Fiight against Apple with same legal team. and looking to spend cash.  Friendly merger or buyout. Imagine company with 1 billion in CASH and opportunities forboth. In this

[wilander]

One thing is for sure, I bet Fattouche and Skippen are nearing the end of their careers now and would probably be more and more happy to cash out with a nice SP.  Sooner than later.   $$$

[timclarkes]

I’m hoping for the same.

[astutein]

Cabbie-  As you are one of the most knowledge members of board what do you think of approaching Board re idea of merger or takeover by Virnetx. Virnetx has just won second award from Apple.  Virnetx is a troll with no actual product or service revenue but has approx 800 million cash. With Quarterhills cash of 150million plus Virntex 800 million we would have company of 1 billion in cash.

Seems like many just want to get out. No wonder our price lags. 

[wilander]

When you watch all your other stocks run hard the last years as this drifted down... and then see this one have one run from the $1.40-50's and go up a buck to then stall yet again and begin the drip downward.....seemingly incapable of gaining any long term positive traction...AND all the while you know it is worth much more....it is just exhaustion and capitualtion I think lagger.  Yet

[Lagger95]

Great sales pitch.  Yes I understand your frustration and so do any buyers.

[wilander]

lol.  right?

[wilander]

It's why someone stealing this company for $4-5 bucks isnt nearly as outlandish as it seems.

[v_guerriero]

Do as the accumulator does and buy the dip! Trying to take any volume out underneath the 2.61 significant resistance line and avoid picking up the momentum algos.  Can't believe they shook more than 2 million share across exchanges last week with almost no volatility.  A real pro.

"It's why someone stealing this company for $4-5 bucks isn't nearly as outlandish as it seems." With the sentiment we have now it is not outlandish. I believe that is the goal of many buyers. Until there are motivated buyers and not motivated sellers we will languish.  Is Gamestop worth $300 US? I would suggest not, but there very motivated buyers at this time.

[wilander]

Maybe someone is paying attention.  ;) lol

[cabbieJBJ]

I agree lagger.  If QTRH was only in the licensing business, I would have bailed a couple of years ago.  The diversification strategy announced in 2017, while attractive at the time, lacked the focus necessary for successful execution.  I now believe that the ITS  has that focus and I'm looking forward to QTRH building critical mass in the sector.  That is why I'

Feel free to send email to Dave Mason, or directly to Paul Hill or the BoD.  If you believe there is a strong arument ot be made, do't delegate to IR...ask Dave to set up a time for you to discuss with management. I'm of the opinon that such a merger, while possibly timely, is not ITS strategic.  That doesn't mean it should not be considered.  A company needs to be
