It provides an update on ongoing litigation, referencing a previous intimation filed on December 05, 2025.
Nature of the Event
Update on patent infringement litigation.
Parties Involved
- Opposing Party: Fujikura LTD and Fujikura Europe Limited
- Court/Tribunal: Technical Board of Appeal of European Patent Office, Germany
Update on Dispute/Litigation
A significant development has occurred in the patent litigation concerning Fujikura's patent EP3796060, which was also involved in a separate patent infringement litigation in the UK.
The Technical Board of Appeal has revoked Fujikura's patent EP3796060 in its entirety. This decision is noted as non-appealable.
The revocation effectively brings a formal end to the UK patent litigation concerning the Company's Celesta cable family.
Financial and Operational Impact
Following this favourable outcome, the Company is actively pursuing the recovery of legal defence costs from Fujikura. The quantum of these costs or any potential financial impact from their recovery is not quantified in the disclosure.
No settlement has been reached, and therefore, details on terms of settlement, compensation/penalty paid, or impact on financial position are not applicable. The quantum of claims is also stated as not applicable.
The litigation was not against key management personnel, its promoter, or the ultimate person in control.
