On June 27, 2025, Network-1 commenced patent litigation against Samsung Electronics Co., LTD and Samsung Electronics America, Inc. (collectively, "Samsung") in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas, Marshall Division, for infringement of certain patents within Network-1's M2M/IoT Patent Portfolio. The lawsuit alleges that Samsung infringes Network-1's patents by supporting certain eSIM (embedded Subscriber Identification Module) and 5G technologies in its mobile devices, including its Galaxy smartphones, watches and tablets.
On March 31, 2025, Network-1 acquired a patent portfolio from IoT and M2M Technologies, LLC, relating to, among other things, enabling technology to support the interoperability of smart home IoT devices (the "Smart Home Patent Portfolio"). The Smart Home Patent Portfolio currently consists of eight (8) U.S. patents and one (1) international patent as well as eleven (11) U.S. pending patent applications and five (5) pending international patents.
On June 17, 2025, the Board of Directors authorized an extension and increase of Network-1's share repurchase program (the "Share Repurchase Program") to repurchase up to $5,000,000 of common stock over the subsequent 24-month period. The common stock may be repurchased from time to time in open market transactions or privately negotiated transactions at Network-1's discretion except for repurchases under its 10b5-1 plans. The timing and amount of the shares repurchased is determined by management, except for repurchases under its 10b5-1 plans, based on its evaluation of market conditions and other factors. The Share Repurchase Program may be increased, suspended or discontinued at any time. Since the inception of the Share Repurchase Program through June 30, 2025, Network-1 has repurchased an aggregate of 10,525,705 shares of its common stock at an aggregate cost of $20,185,549 (exclusive of commissions) or an average per share price of $1.92. During the three months ended June 30, 2025, Network-1 repurchased 44,811 shares at a cost of $55,337 (exclusive of commissions), or an average price of $1.23 per share. During the six months ended June 30, 2025, the company repurchased 151,473 shares at a cost of $202,194 (exclusive of commissions), or an average price of $1.33 per share. As of June 30, 2025, the remaining dollar value of shares that may be repurchased under the Share Repurchase Program was $4,994,853.
As of June 30, 2025, Network-1 had cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities of $38,485,000 and working capital of $38,288,000. Based on its current cash position, Network-1 believes it has sufficient resources to fund operations for the next twelve months and the foreseeable future.
Network-1 continues to pay dividends consistent with its dividend policy, which consists of semi-annual cash dividends of $0.05 per share ($0.10 per share annually), typically paid in March and September. On February 19, 2025, Network-1's Board of Directors declared a semi-annual cash dividend of $0.05 per share, paid on March 28, 2025 to shareholders of record as of March 14, 2025.
