Commenting on the results, C.K. Hong, Netlist's Chief Executive Officer, stated, "During the second quarter, we continued to focus on executing our strategic plan. We made significant progress in qualifying our newest NVvault product at one of the world's largest hyperscale customers and showcased that product as the industry's best performing NVDIMM running at 2DPC 1600 at the recent Flash Memory Summit. We are also pleased with the progress made in the trade secrets litigation against the ULLtraDIMM product from SanDisk, which it produced in partnership with Diablo, a former contractor to Netlist. In fact, Diablo acknowledged in recent court filings that earlier versions of the ULLtraDIMM did use actual Netlist chips, though they have taken the position that they were allowed to do so -- a position with which we obviously disagree. This admission and the evidence we have reviewed so far supports our assertions in the case and we intend to vigorously pursue every remedy available to us."
