Company receives one-time payment and annual
license fee
Impinj, Inc. (NASDAQ: PI), a leading RAIN RFID provider and
Internet of Things pioneer, today announced a successful settlement
of its patent disputes with NXP Semiconductors N.V. As outlined in
an 8-K filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission
today, the agreement terminates all pending legal proceedings,
releases each party from liability for past patent infringement,
and licenses each party’s patents to the other. It also releases
resellers and end users from infringement claims for the sale or
use of the parties’ UHF RFID products before the date of the
agreement.
The agreement, which concludes a multi-year patent dispute
during which Impinj prevailed in multiple trials, includes both an
up-front payment and a yearly license fee to Impinj. “Impinj is
passionately inventive,” said Chris Diorio, Impinj co-founder and
CEO. “Our more-than 305 issued and allowed RAIN RFID patents are
the hard-earned fruits of that passion and reflect significant
investment, dedication and sheer hard work. We are committed to
safeguarding those patented inventions, ensuring free and fair
competition and innovating solutions for our enterprise end users.
I believe this settlement advances all three objectives and am
pleased with the final outcome.”
