The Announcement

According to Everspin, the terms of the agreement include an up-front license fee to Everspin in addition to future royalties. However, specific financial terms of the agreement were not disclosed. Everspin's portfolio spans across over 500 worldwide patents and applications covering its magnetoresistive technology, where the agreement would further expand the Company's existing group of memory and sensor licenses. Reportedly, Everspin was recognized by IEEE in its Patent Power 2017 report as having one of the world's top 20 most valuable patent portfolios for semiconductor manufacturing. According to Everspin, its magnetoresistive patent portfolio is valuable to multiple significant market applications beyond the core focus in magnetoresistive theory.

Alps Electric, is a leading global manufacturer of high-quality electronic components for mobile devices, home electronics, vehicles, and industrial equipment. Alps Electric currently supplies over 40,000 different components to about 2,000 companies across the world. Everspin, on the other hand, is the worldwide leader in designing, manufacturing, and commercially shipping discrete and embedded MRAM into markets and applications where data persistence, performance, and endurance are crucial. The Company has more than 70 million MRAM products deployed in data center, cloud storage, energy, industrial, automotive, and transportation markets. Everspin has built the strongest and fastest-growing foundation of MRAM users in the world according to the press release.

Company Growth Prospects

Prior to the announcement, on March 15, 2018, Eversping reported its Q4 FY17 and full year FY17 results for the period ended December 31, 2017.

The Company further added that it made progress on several strategic priorities, including 256Mb STT-MRAM, with the start of production and first recognized revenues in Q4 FY17.

In order to raise the necessary capital for executing the strategy, Everspin raised about $24.5 million, after underwriter fees, through a secondary public stock offering in February 2018. The Company further added that the funds would be used as working capital to support ongoing operations and scale production, while developing both new products and future advanced MRAM technology.
