ParkerVision, Inc. (NASDAQ:PRKR)

Either this company has developed a revolutionary method for converting radio signals for use in mobile devices, as it has long claimed. Or it is a "patent troll," as Motley Fool says. A patent infringement suit against Qualcomm should provide the answer. The outcome here is binary: either PRKR is worth perhaps billions of dollars, or it's worth virtually nothing. I'm betting on the former. Trial is set for October.

Since 1993, the company has only lost money, both in the form of net income/earnings for shareholders and cash flow from operations.

How is this company even in business? It consistently burns cash and contributes losses for shareholders.

There isn't a possible way in which PRKR will not continue heading towards zero. By any valuation metric, the only value of the company is its existing assets.

CEO is a fraud and incapable of telling the truth.

PA technology has no customers (in over 7 years of trying!) & almost surely doesn't work.

As soon as it becomes clear that the patent suit agains QCOM is worthless, this stock dies.

A great premise with no product and insignificant R&D.

ParkerVision has consistently overpromised and underdelivered over the past few decades. The recent steep rise is a result of their graduation from vaporware manufacturer to patent troll, which is a step up I guess.

Terrible company!

Lots of others have outlined the reasons... and you should go read that Barrons article.

Stock literally has zero value. Market will eventually figure this out. D2D has no advantage over existing receiver technology and D2P doesn't work. No revenues (from D2D or D2P) for last 17 years, CameraMan division sold for huge loss in 2004, and no future. Company management is great - at propping up stock stock and nothing else.

A garbage stock with no real products. This is such an obvious short. Who would own this thing after the Barron's article?

If a stock is going to zero, it doesn't matter if you get in at 20, 10, or 5, you're still going to make 100%.

down $2 to $7

Following StatsGeek on this. Looks like a good bet to underperform: 51 employees making $89K revenue doesn't strike me as sustainable. No debt, $19M in cash is good, but considering operating losses of $23M, $23M, and $17M (rounded) the past three years, it doesn't look like the cash will be there much longer. And they will probably have a tough time finding lenders to keep them going. Best hope is to be bought out, but what do they have to sell?

Good God, a stock with a price somehow around its 52W high and such stats!
I'm not even to deeper analysis, as all the bets become against PRKR as soon as you take a look at the coefficients, among which zero debts and overall positive movement along the last year seem to be the only brighter points.

Fraudulent technology

CEO has traveled extensively over the past few months to Finland, Sweden, and Japan. Major contracts with large hardware manufacturers are about to be signed.

This is a scam. I have followed PRKR for years, (since o/a 1996) when it used to be a video camera company ("technology" which they abandoned). They have never had significant revenue, and their "chip technology" is suspect, if not criminal. There are better long term investments.
