For the second quarter of 2008 the Company's revenue from continuing operations was $1.9 million, compared to $0 for the second quarter of 2007. The revenue is from a settlement and license agreement that the Company entered into in May 2008 with respect to the Company's intellectual property. For the six months ended June 30, 2008, the Company had net income of $2.1 million compared to a net loss of $1.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007. The net income per common share for the six months ended June 30, 2008 was $0.09, basic and diluted, compared to a net loss of $0.04, basic and diluted, for the six months ended June 30, 2007. The Company's revenue from continuing operations for the six months ended June 30, 2008 was $8.1 million. All of the revenue is from three settlement and license agreements entered into with AT&T, Verizon and Sprint. The Company had no operating revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2007. On June 13, 2008, the United States federal court (the "Court") issued a claim construction ("Markman") ruling in the Company's ongoing patent litigation, which was begun in June 2006. The Court rejected the claim constructions of the defendants on each of the nine disputed claim terms, while construing six of them in the manner originally proposed by the Company. For the other three claim terms, the Court adopted a construction that had not been proposed by either side. "We are extremely pleased with our continued success in licensing our patents to companies with the stature of AT&T, Verizon and Sprint, and with the outcome of the Markman hearing. We plan to continue to pursue licenses from other entities that are using our patented technology, which includes corresponding patents in Australia, Canada, China and Europe", said Allan Silber, Chairman and CEO of C2.
