Parkervision Inc's

We operate in a highly competitive industry against companies with greater brand recognition and substantially greater financial, technical, and sales and marketing resources. As a result, they may have larger distribution channels and greater reach to customers than we do.

Our WiFi products compete with WiFi networking products offered by companies such as Google, Belkin/Linksys, NetGear, Eero, and others. We also expect to face competition from service providers who bundle competing networking devices with their service offering if we are not the supplier of choice for those service providers. We believe the principal competitive factors in the markets for our networking products include product performance, ease-of-installation, price, customer support, brand and the breadth of sales channels. To compete, we must continue to invest in developing new products and features, expanding our sales channels and maintaining superior customer support.

Our technologies and IC products face competition from incumbent providers of transceivers, such as Broadcom, Fujitsu, Intel, MediaTek, NVidia, Qualcomm, STMicroelectronics, Marvell, Texas Instruments, and others, as well as incumbent providers of power amplifiers, including companies such as Anadigics, Qorvo, and Skyworks, among others. Each of our competitors, however, also has the potential of becoming a licensing or product customer for our technologies. To date, we are unaware of any competing or emerging RF technologies, other than infringing products that provide all the simultaneous benefits that certain of our technologies enable. Our unique technologies process RF carriers in a more optimal manner than prior traditional technologies, thereby allowing the creation of handsets and other products that have extended battery life, lower operating temperatures, more easily incorporate multiple air interface standards and frequencies in smaller form factors, improve operational performance, and reduce manufacturing costs. One or more of these benefits enable some of the key features that can be found in high volume wireless products. Our technologies provide such attractive benefits, in part, because of their unique operational and/or circuit architectures. The benefits our technologies enable include highly accurate transmission and reception of RF carriers that use less power than traditional architectures and components, thereby extending battery life, reducing heat and enabling certain size, cost, performance, and packaging advantages.

We believe the most significant hurdle to the licensing and/or sale of our technologies and products is the widespread use of certain of our technologies in infringing products produced by companies with significantly greater financial, technical and sales and marketing resources. We believe we can gain adoption and/or secure licensing agreements with unauthorized current users of one or more of our technologies, and therefore compete, based on a solid and defensible patent portfolio and the advantages enabled by our unique circuit architectures.
