“The first half of 2019 marked a period of transition within Finjan in which we changed our executive team, focused on improving the cadence of our licensing program, implemented new litigation strategies, augmented our licensing program for Finjan Blue, and evaluated numerous opportunities that both energize our teams and we believe will build value for our shareholders,” said Phil Hartstein, President and CEO of Finjan. “Our second quarter was highlighted by bringing Jevan Anderson on board as CFO to help us optimize the future of Finjan, a license and settlement agreement with Zscaler, and unexpected but manageable shifts in our ESET and Juniper litigations, which in keeping with our best practices, we will utilize this interim period to explore global resolutions.”

“We have spent the last two months rigorously exploring new avenues to expand our business. We are confident that we now have a sufficient pipeline of new investment and partnership opportunities ahead in which we can capitalize on our expertise of monetizing IP. Whether through investments, acquisitions, partnerships or joint ventures our focus remains on growth and driving the most value for our shareholders,” concluded Phil Hartstein.
