Google Settles Patent Suit: Wow

Google Settles Patent Suit: Wow 08/10/2004 05:29 AM

CBS MarketWatch: Yahoo, Google settle legal dispute. As part of the agreement, Google agreed to issue Yahoo 2.7 million shares of its common stock in payment for the license, according to a Google filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

So it looks like there really was something to Overture's complaint (Overture was purchased by Yahoo) that Google was infringing. The size of this settlement tells you that Google was very afraid. The quick calculations that everyone has done about the value of the settlement also tell you something about companies' claims that they can't properly value stock options on financial statements. It's only when you can hide the money from investors that it's an issue, apparently.
