This summary was created by AI, based on 2 opinions in the last 12 months.

Quarterhill Inc., under the symbol QTRH-T, has been facing challenges in its technological ventures, particularly in transitioning from technology patents to transportation sensors. The reviews highlight a chronic underperformance, although there are glimmers of hope in improved sales momentum. However, the revenue remains inconsistent, leading to a cautious outlook. One expert owns debentures, indicating a preference for safer income over direct equity exposure due to the company's volatility. There is a belief that while an improvement is possible, investor sentiment remains lukewarm, with an emphasis on liquidity preferences as the firm continues its strategic pivot, which has yet to yield desired results.

Negative

Valuation

Overvalued

Similar

NexG, NEXG

STRONG BUY

Have about $1 a share in cash. Have raised guidance in the last 18 months 3 or 4 times. Expects to see some developments shortly in terms of signings. Strong balance sheet. Looking for a lot of upside in the next 18 months.

TOP PICK

Holds patents and licenses them to technology companies. A recent hearing in Texas was beneficial to them. Have a patent on Bluetooth, which will be valuable because of drivers having to have hands-free operations. $.12 estimated earnings for 2010 and $.23 in 2011.

RISKY

Collect royalties on patents. (Also see Mosaid (MSD-T)) Backlogs rather than near-term earnings, so Ranks about neutral in his model. Markman hearings were held last week and should be a report in 90 days and expects it will be in their favour. Extremely interesting patent portfolio, which he expects will pay off in the next 1.5 to 2 years.

STRONG BUY

Believes it is a winner. Stock is above the 40-day moving average and is rising.

BUY

Have been signing more and more patent licensees. Very good management. Cheap stock.

SELL

(Market Call Minute.) Ahead of itself. Not a big fan of the business model where they raise money for legal fees.

COMMENT

(Market Call Minute.) If you own it, he would sell and buy it back later. If you don't own it would be a buy.

BUY

Good example of a company where the stock has gone down but nothing has changed. Sitting on about $1 per share plus in cash. Will be generating positive earnings cash flow this year. Very low PE ratio. Have a great patent portfolio. Low risk.

COMMENT

Signed a deal with RIM. Suing about 21 companies. Have cash on the books. Have upped their guidance, which is pretty rare these days. Has got a serious potential, but no one cares. When the market recovers, the stock should do exceptionally well.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick July 4/07. Down 63%.) Won a couple of royalty streams from a few companies but then announced they were not able to settle with a few companies that were violating their patents. Sued about 22 companies so is now a court legal situation. Sold his holdings.

BUY

The patent trolling/licensing sector took a hit because of a fear of a patent reform bill. It now looks like the bill is stalled and will not be going through. Has about $1 in cash. Has the capital to execute. So cheap, the downside is limited with potential upside.

COMMENT

Doesn't really make anything. Has a whole bunch of patents. One of the problems with patents is that it is really hard to determine their value. At this price, it is a reasonable punt but it is speculative.

COMMENT

Think they have bottomed here. While the rest of the world has been imploding, they continue to sign contracts. Sued 22 companies on patent infringements and as the year progresses, you'll see some of those companies start folding and settling or there'll be more legal action. Have the cash, good management team and patents. Considering buying this.

BUY

Just reported record revenues and earnings and has an extremely low P/E for a tech company. Making $.36 a share. Has about $1 a share in cash.

SELL

He doesn't like patent plays, particularly with small players. Intellectual property is a tough nut to crack. The chart shows lower lows and lower highs.
