Significant Patent Litigation Update with Cisco WebEx
A jury awarded the company $65.7 million in a patent infringement lawsuit against Cisco WebEx. However, the trial court granted a new trial with respect to damages, and an appeal is pending, making the ultimate proceeds uncertain. The company estimates receiving no more than one-third of the gross award.

Substantial Increase in Authorized Common Stock
Stockholders approved an amendment to increase authorized common stock from 25 million to 50 million shares on May 8, 2025.

Intelligent Protection Management Corp.'s 2025 annual report highlights a significant business transformation, pivoting from consumer applications to IT and cloud-based solutions through the acquisition of Newtek Technology Solutions, Inc. (NTS) and the divestiture of legacy assets. This strategic shift resulted in a remarkable 2050% increase in total revenue to $23.6 million for 2025. While the company improved its net loss and Adjusted EBITDA, it remains unprofitable. A major development is the ongoing patent litigation with Cisco WebEx, where the company was awarded $65.7 million by a jury, though a new trial for damages has been granted and an appeal is pending, introducing significant uncertainty to this potential windfall. Concurrently, the company faces another patent infringement claim from Cisco regarding its ManyCam software. The increase in authorized common stock from 25 million to 50 million shares presents a substantial potential dilution of approximately 450% if fully issued. The company also initiated a $400,000 stock repurchase plan, of which $301,048 was executed in 2025. A notable risk is the concentration of revenue, with Newtek, a related party, accounting for 32% of total revenue. The report also details the achievement of SOC 2 Type 1 compliance, a positive for its cybersecurity offerings.
