Apple has won over his rival Taiwan - HTC. HTC was found guilty of violating patents on technology used in smart phones and Tablet PCs.
International Trade Commission ruled that Taiwan's HTC, the second largest Asian producer of smartphones, has violated the ten patents owned by Apple. It is an intellectual property associated with software for e-mail and text messages to portable electronic devices, as well as hardware that is used in the touch screen and motion sensors.
HTC appealed to the commission to consider an appeal against the decision of the American Administrative Court handed down on July 15. Previously, the court found guilty of violating the HTC patents Apple. Now the U.S. may ban import of some phones, HTC, who use the Android operating system from Google, as well as Tablet PCs HTC Flyer.
Because of this defeat, stock quotes, HTC fell by 5% to its lowest level in six months. To increase the stock price, HTC announced its intention to purchase 20 million shares (it is approximately 2.44% of its equity) to 17 September. Approximately half of these shares will be distributed to employees, the other half revoked. In addition, to attract investors, HTC plans this year to pay dividends on its shares.
Note that the International Trade Commission is currently considering a complaint against HTC Apple, also associated with the violation of intellectual property rights. A decision on the complaint will be issued on September 16.
