Imagine considering buying out EDIG. You are buying their patent portfolio and the encryption patents pending, essentially.
If a suitor offered $2/share which translates into a $600 million market cap, that purchase price today could likely be paid with the proceeds from their legal wranglings already in progress, and you own the patents for free, with ongoing licensing deals and what ever the encryption patents may bring.
For those companies with loads of cash looking to bolster their patent portfolios and avoid risk of future infringement, it makes $2/share look like a good strategic move, especially if you are possibly in infringement of EDIG's patents.
Now how about a bidding war? lol
TGIF ! lol
