Notes to consolidated financial statements

Note 10. Commitments and Contingencies

Contingencies, page F-32

1. We note that you disclose the Patent Law-Based Claim initiated on November 23, 2017 on page F-32, and you indicate that you reject the claims that serve as a basis for the proceeding and intend to vigorously defend these claims. In accordance with ASC 450-20-50, please revise future filings to clearly disclose the following information for your loss contingencies: (1) the amount or range of reasonably possible losses in addition to the amounts accrued or (2) a statement that the reasonably possible losses cannot be estimated or are not material to your financial statements.
 
We respectfully acknowledge the Staff’s comment. We will provide the requested disclosures concerning our loss contingencies clearly in our future filings.
 
2. We note that the Company is a party to various other legal proceedings, the outcome of which, in the opinion of management, will not have a significant adverse effect on the financial position or profitability of the Company. With a view toward future disclosure, please explain why you have omitted the statement of cash flows or revise future filings to reference this financial statement.

We respectfully acknowledge the Staff’s comment. In future filings, we will add a reference to our statement of cash flows in order to more fully address the impact of the outcome of legal proceedings on all aspects of our results of operations and financial position.
