CAP-XX shares fell 51% in early trade, marking their worst ever
one-day percentage fall, after the company said that a U.S. court
has ruled against it over a patent infringement case against a
subsidiary of Tesla.
Shares at 0941 GMT were down 0.88 pence at 0.83 pence. They are
currently down 78% over the year to date.
The London-listed Australia-based maker of thin, prismatic
supercapacitors said Monday that the U.S. District Court for the
District of Delaware ruled on Dec. 15 that CAP-XX's patents were
invalid and therefore Tesla's Maxwell Technologies didn't infringe
on them and is therefore not liable to pay damages nor license
fees.
"Whilst CAP-XX is disappointed with this decision, it is in
discussions with its attorneys to agree the appropriate next
steps," the company said
It added that the company plans to proceed with its current
product range, supported by a strong portfolio of current IP, to
focus on the key short-term actions to maximize sales and deliver
profitability.
