Callaway Golf Company (NYSE:ELY) today announced that the United States
Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit has rejected the majority of
the arguments raised by the Acushnet Company on its appeal from the
trial court’s ruling that the Titleist Pro V1 family of golf balls had
infringed valid patents owned by Callaway. In particular, the Court
specifically rejected Acushnet’s request to dismiss the entire case. The
appellate court instead returned the case to the United States District
Court for the District of Delaware for further proceedings on certain
issues specifically identified in the opinion. Callaway Golf is
confident that it will prevail, and looks forward to presenting its
claim for damages.
