Experience

Three recent engagements highlight SP&H’s track record of valuing intellectual property of

emerging technologies.

Spin-Off of Medical Device Patents and License

SP&H determined the value of intellectual property spun off in a strategic alliance and equity investment between a private company and public suitor to develop surgical tools and procedures. The publicly traded scientific company required a professional appraisal for financial reporting purposes.

Infringement of Technology Patent: Calculation of Damages and Lost Value

SP&H determined the economic damages resulting from interference by a competitor who falsely claimed ownership of assigned technology patents. Damage calculations required valuation of lost territory rights and the tax impact of a renegotiated distribution agreement resulting from the interference.

Below Cost Pricing and Patent Infringement: Calculation of Lost Profits

SP&H determined lost profits for a leading components manufacturer, which lost customers as a result of a competitor’s patent infringement and below cost pricing.
