We have about 200 Mio shares (maybe approx 250 Mio fully diluted). Simple math :
1 Bio USD (whether from SK Hynx or Google) = 5 (4) USD per share
10 Bio USD = 50 (40) USD per share.
Some people here (look back about 10 days ago) did some hedonistic price modelling for the concerned patent-infringded technology used by Google based on this reference:
https://www.criterioneconomics.com/docs/...s-and-patent-royalties.pdfThes estimated 10-12 Bio could be the sum to be paid by Google (that includes tremble because of willingful patent infringement). SK Hynx - I think at least recently nobody estimated for SK Hynx. Just a number 1-2 Bio (?)
PLUS:
- royalties/licence fees from those who lost the lawsuit (or settled)
- royalties/licence fees from other (not sued yet) once we have a precedence
- massive increase of the valuation of NLST patents once it has been shown that they are inforced.
Is 100 USD per share possible ? Mid-term yes, if all goes well. That would be a marketcapitalisation of about 20 (25) Bio USD. They would be key company for server memory modules, but still rather a "mid"-size chipmaker and by far not a giant.
But back from the "best case" scenario: alone 1 Bio from SK Hynx (and that case looks very good for us) would be extra 5 USD per share. Dont expect however a conclusion on SK HYNX much before summer (though it is possible any time now).
Once you have digested the above - you won't bother anymore with 20, 30 % or 70 % up - although, - nobody would disagree to be happy when you see a rise last days.
