Patent Infringement Lawsuit
On June 19, 2017, Weatherproof Wireless, LLC filed a complaint against us in federal court in the District of Delaware. The complaint includes allegations against us pertaining to the infringement of Weatherproof Wireless, LLC patents by our access gateway and wireless router pods for public safety communications structures, including the Digi Utility Communication Hub with 4G LTE. On September 26, 2017 we signed a settlement and license agreement for an immaterial amount.
In addition to the matters discussed above, in the normal course of business, we are subject to various claims and litigation, which may include, but are not limited to, patent infringement and intellectual property claims. While we are unable to predict the outcome of any potential claims or litigation due to the inherent unpredictability of these matters, we believe that it is possible that we could, in the future, incur judgments or enter into settlements of claims that could have a material adverse effect on our operations in any particular period.
