Litigation
Except as set forth below, there have been no material changes to the disclosures related to our litigation matters since the filing of our Annual Report on Form 10-K. See Note 10, "Commitments and Contingencies," in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 31, 2023 for further information.
On February 18, 2022, certain stockholders filed a lawsuit against Phunware and its individual officers and directors. The case, captioned Wild Basin Investments, LLC, et al. v. Phunware, Inc., et al., was filed in the Court of Chancery of the state of Delaware (Cause No. 2022-0168-LWW). Plaintiffs alleged that they invested in various early rounds of financing while the Company was private and that Phunware should not have subjected their shares to a 180-day “lock up” period. Plaintiffs also allege that Phunware’s stock price dropped significantly during the lock up period and seek damages, costs and professional fees. We filed a motion to dismiss the complaint on May 27, 2022 and on July 15, 2022, Plaintiffs filed their answering brief in opposition to the motion to dismiss and a partial motion for summary judgement. All briefing and oral argument on the motion to dismiss and motion for partial summary judgement is complete. Both parties argued their positions before the Court of Chancery during a hearing on April 4, 2023. On June 16, 2023, the Court ruled on the motions without filing a written opinion. From the bench, Vice Chancellor Cook granted Phunware’s motion to dismiss on the Texas law-based claims and denied both the motion to dismiss and partial motion for summary judgment on the Delaware law claims. The parties engaged in mediation in July 2023 and are scheduled for further mediation in late August 2023. We intend to vigorously defend against this lawsuit and any appeals. We have not recorded a liability related to this matter because any potential loss is not currently probable or reasonably estimable. Additionally, we cannot presently estimate the range of loss, if any, that may result from the matter. It is possible that the ultimate resolution of the foregoing matter, or other similar matters, if resolved in a manner unfavorable to us, may be materially adverse to our business, financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.
From time to time, we are and may become involved in various legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business. The outcomes of our legal proceedings are inherently unpredictable, subject to significant uncertainties, and could be material to our operating results and cash flows for a particular reporting period. In addition, for the matters disclosed above that do not
include an estimate of the amount of loss or range of losses, such an estimate is not possible, and we may be unable to estimate the possible loss or range of losses that could potentially result from the application of non-monetary remedies.
