Patent control/licensing doesn't usually impress me. MDVX.OB and VHC seem to think that patent control is about sueing large companies such as Microsoft and then celebrating when you get a Marksman ruling that your "suit" may have merit. Try prosecuting it to conclusion before you cheer. Acacia Research as a 3 star stock doesn't get much respect either, but making money off of licensing can be one of the most lucrative markets to be in. Yes, it does require some overhead monitoring and fighting for your patents. If a work around can be designed, it will be by someone. The margins, however, are outstanding! Acacia hasn't had the greatest of revenue quarters of late, but no debt, positive cash flow and low overhead it has good potential with the right combination. Recent acquisitions are in some technology areas that could be important. Even in cases Acacia loses, they still typically acquire additional portfolios or customers.
