Transmeta zu myNews hinzufügen Was ist das?
Transmeta Corporation (NASDAQ: TMTA) today confirmed that its first
licensee began its production ramp of the first commercial product
licensed to use Transmeta’s LongRun2
technologies and has achieved volume production levels. As a result,
Transmeta expects to recognize approximately $215,000 in royalty revenue
in the first quarter of 2008 for products using Transmeta’s
LongRun2 technologies that were sold by its licensee during the fourth
quarter of 2007. This compares with sample production royalty revenues
of approximately $1,000 and $2,000 that the Company recognized from its
first licensee in the third and fourth quarters of 2007, respectively.
"We are very pleased that the first commercial
product licensed to use our LongRun2 technologies is now in volume
production,” said Les Crudele, president and
chief executive officer of Transmeta. "This is
an important milestone and highlights the long-term opportunity of our
IP licensing business.” About Transmeta Corporation
