Zi Corporation Reports Results for 2006 Second Quarter, First Six-Months
Friday August 11, 8:00 am ET
CALGARY, ALBERTA--(MARKET WIRE)--Aug 11, 2006 -- Zi Corporation (TSX:ZIC.TO - News)(NASDAQ:ZICA - News), a leading provider of intelligent interface solutions, today reported results for its second quarter and first six months ended June 30, 2006. (Unless otherwise indicated, all monetary amounts in this news release are in U.S. dollars.)
ADVERTISEMENT
Total revenues for this year's second quarter were $2.7 million compared to total revenues of $3.1 million for the second quarter of 2005. Revenue for the 2005 period included $0.2 million from e-learning operations that have since been divested. The remainder of the year-over-year decline in quarterly revenue was primarily due to decreases from two small- to mid-sized original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) that historically were significant sources of revenue, and that Zi believes are losing market share to the wireless industry's largest OEMs. The sequential revenue decline from the 2006 first quarter was due principally to revenue received in the first quarter of this year for fully paid-up licenses for the Company's technology to customers in the video gaming market, and $0.6 million of other product revenue resulting from the non-recurring, first quarter consolidation of Archer Education Group Inc. (Archer) results. Gross margin as a percentage of revenue for this year's second quarter was 97 percent versus 96 percent for the year earlier quarter.
The net loss for the 2006 second quarter was $3.0 million, or a loss per basic and diluted share of $0.07, compared to a net loss of $0.2 million, or a loss of $0.00 per basic and diluted share in the prior year period, which included a $1.4 million gain from the settlement of litigation. Year over year increases in legal fees of $0.6 million, lower revenue from licensing and implementation fees of $0.3 million and higher selling, general and administrative expense (SG&A) due to accounting for stock options and bad debt expense represented the balance of the increased loss.
This year's second quarter results included $0.4 million in stock-based compensation expense to reflect the adoption of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards 123(R), "Share Based Payment", (SFAS 123(R)) in the current year, whereas in last year's second quarter SFAS 123(R) had not been adopted.
New President and Chief Executive Officer Milos Djokovic, the Company's former Chief Technology Officer and Chief Operating Officer who was appointed President and CEO on May 26, said he was optimistic the sales and marketing initiatives currently underway would help return Zi to sustained revenue growth.
"We have several important transactions underway that we believe will provide impetus for the future," Djokovic said. "This is an important time for Zi and I look forward to leading the Company back to solid financial footing."
Djokovic noted that historically Zi has licensed its products to smaller and mid-sized mobile phone OEMs, with an emphasis on Asian-based OEMs. While the sale of mobile handsets globally reflects significant year over year growth, OEMs are under pressure by carriers to reduce device costs and ultimately the price paid by consumers. As a result of these and other factors, a number of the smaller and mid-sized OEMs have exited the handset device business, resulting in the larger OEM's increasing their relative market share because of their ability to provide low cost feature rich devices. In response to these market changes, Zi continues to shift its sales focus for its predictive text products to the largest OEMs, and has achieved some early success to such top-tier OEMs.
Zi is also shifting its focus through the development of new products, such as Qix, which is directed at mobile carriers on the basis that it can generate higher customer billings for the carrier by increasing the average revenue per user ("ARPU"). Based on higher ARPU's for the carriers, the Company believes that the carriers will pay a higher price for Qix compared to its predictive text products. Consumer market trials have shown that ARPU increases for carriers in the range of 30 percent are achievable, which has resulted in interest in Qix with a number of European and American carriers.
Djokovic said that key highlights of the second quarter included:
- The launch of Zi's most advanced predictive text solution for China to-date - a new version of eZiText® that is the only one in the world with run-on phase-level input for mobile devices - allowing users to type a phrase through Stroke, Pinyin or Zhuyin mode, even if a match cannot be found.
- The announcement of a sustained 33 percent increase in Average Revenue Per User (ARPU) for Virgin Mobile users with trial handsets since the operator began using Qix in the Summer of 2005.
- The announcement of the availability of Decuma for Arabic, the world's 5th largest language. Decuma Arabic is a personal and powerful pen-input solution featuring prediction.
- The integration of eZiText® predictive text software into Trolltech's Qtopia® application platform to enhance the power of today's mobile user interface and address the needs of the rapidly growing international market for Linux-based mobile devices.
Zi Corporation total revenues for the first six months of 2006 were $6.4 million compared to total revenues of $6.0 million for the comparable year earlier period. Revenue in this year's first six months included revenue recorded in this year's first quarter from customers in the video gaming market, which was offset by the second quarter decline in revenue from two OEMs that historically were significant sources of revenue. Total revenues for the first six months of 2006 included other product revenue from e-Learning of $0.6 million, compared to $0.4 million for the comparable year earlier period. The increase in other product revenue is principally due to the operations of Archer, which was consolidated with the Company from January 2006 to February 2006. The Company now holds approximately 45 percent of Archer common shares. Gross margin as a percentage of revenue in the first half of 2006 was 97 percent compared to 95 percent in the prior year period.
The net loss for this year's first six months was $5.3 million, or a loss per basic and diluted share of $0.11, compared to a net loss of $1.7 million, or a loss per basic and diluted share of $0.04 for the year-earlier period, which includes the $1.4 million gain for the settled litigation. The balance of the year over year increase in loss was represented by the following: increase in legal fees of $1.2 million; higher SG&A of $0.9 million as a result of accounting for stock options and bad debt expense; higher product research and development expense of $0.3 million; equity interest in the loss from Archer's operations $0.2 million; and higher income tax expense related to our Chinese operations of $0.2 million.
This year's six months results included $0.5 million in stock-based compensation expense to reflect the adoption of SFAS 123(R) in the current year, which as discussed above was not in effect last year.
The Company's balance sheet as of June 30, 2006 showed cash and cash equivalents of $4.7 million plus $1.7 million that is restricted for use for the Company's operations in China; total assets of $15.3 million; total liabilities of $6.0 million; a current ratio of 1.67:1; and shareholders' equity of $9.3 million.
Zi earned royalties from 50 and 61 licensees, respectively during the 2006 second quarter and first six months, compared to 57 and 59 in the respective year earlier periods. There were 120 new handset models embedded with eZiText released into the market in the 2006 second quarter, and for the first six months of this year, 170 new models were released into the market, bringing the total at the end of the first six months of 2006 to 1,170 compared to 930 at the end of the 2005 first six months.
SG&A expense in the second quarter of 2006 was $2.9 million compared to $2.3 million in the second quarter of 2005. The year-over-year increase in the 2006 second quarter was due to $0.3 million in stock-based compensation expense and $0.3 million in allowance for doubtful debt expense, reflecting, principally, the effective business discontinuance of certain Zi customers.
SG&A expense in the first six months of this year was $6.0 million compared to $5.1 million in the same prior last period. For the first six months of 2006, the increase in SG&A expense of $0.9 million was primarily due to the operations of Archer, which accounts for $0.6 million of the increase. This increase is offset by the deconsolidation of Archer late in the first quarter, which reduced SG&A in the second quarter by $0.3 million. The remaining increase in SG&A, after adjusting for the effects of Archer and the deconsolidation, is due to $0.3 million in stock based compensation expense and the provisions made for doubtful accounts.
The Company continues to invest in new product features and enhancements to software language databases along with continued investment in Qix and Decuma handwriting recognition software. Product research and development expense, net of capitalized costs, for the 2006 second quarter and first six months were $1.3 million and $2.5 million, respectively, compared to $1.2 million and $2.2 million in the respective year earlier periods. The Company capitalized $0.4 million and $0.8 million, respectively, in the 2006 second quarter and first six months, compared to $32,000 and $0.4 million in the respective periods in 2005.
Legal costs for the second quarter and first six months ended June 30, 2006 were $0.8 million and $1.7 million, respectively, compared to $0.3 million and $0.5 million for the same periods last year. The year-over-year increases in legal expense for the 2006 second quarter and first six months were due, in part, to defense costs related to the University of Texas action against numerous manufacturers of cell phones, of which one of the remaining defendants is a customer of Zi in the United States. As well, during 2005 a significant shareholder of the Company commenced actions to appoint its nominees to the Board of Directors of the Company, using shares that were allegedly illegally acquired and not in accordance with Alberta law or regulatory rules.

2. GOING CONCERN BASIS OF PRESENTATION
These consolidated financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes that the Company will be able to realize its assets at the amounts recorded and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business in the foreseeable future. The Company has incurred operating losses and experienced net cash outflow on a recurring basis.
As at June 30, 2006, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $102,896,205, and for the six months then ended the Company incurred a loss of $5,315,590 and used cash in operating activities of $4,251,854. Continuing operations are dependent on the Company achieving profitable operations and being able to raise additional capital. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to the amounts and classifications of assets and liabilities that may be necessary should the Company be unable to raise additional capital and continue as a going concern. The Company can give no assurances that it will be successful in raising additional capital or achieving profitability.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements are prepared by management in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP"). The accounting policies used in preparing these interim consolidated financial statements are consistent with those used in the preparation of the 2005 annual consolidated financial statements, however, they do not include all disclosures normally provided in annual consolidated financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the 2005 annual consolidated financial statements. In management's opinion, the unaudited consolidated financial statements include all adjustments necessary to present fairly such information. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the fiscal year.
Restatement of income tax expense
For the year ended December 31, 2004, the Company's income tax expense has been restated to reflect actual income tax expense for a previously understated liability. According to the Peoples Republic of China ("PRC") taxation law, those Foreign Investment Entities ("FIE") established in China that are involved in "productive" activities are entitled to tax holidays and tax reductions. These FIE tax benefits include a two-year tax holiday followed by a 50 percent reduction of the otherwise applicable tax rate for the following three years. Our Chinese subsidiary, Huayu Zi Software Technology (Beijing) Co. Ltd. ("Huayu Zi") had been categorized as a productive-type FIE in all of its PRC statutory filings, including its routine filings to tax authorities and believed it was entitled to the tax holiday and tax rate reductions.
PRC tax authorities tightened the scope of FIE tax incentives and narrowed the tax holiday and reduction entitlement to those entities engaged in productive activities or engaged in "encouraged" industries. Changes to the operations of Huayu Zi in 2004 resulted in decreases in its research and development spending and revenues generated from productive activities (as defined under the FIE guidelines) which were below the stipulated levels required to qualify as a FIE eligible for the tax holidays and reductions. As a result, the Company should have recorded an increase in the income tax liability and expense of $336,161 for the year ended December 31, 2004. The Company previously disclosed in its consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2004, a contingent liability of $166,871 for 2004 income tax.
The accumulated deficit as at December 31, 2005, previously reported as $97,244,454, has been restated to $97,580,615 to show the effect of the restatement of the 2004 income tax expense.
Restricted cash
At June 30, 2006, the Company held the U.S. dollar equivalent of $1,747,702 (December 31, 2005 - $648,119) in Chinese Renminbis through its principal Chinese subsidiary. Due to Chinese government regulations pertaining to the capitalization of Chinese companies, these funds are available to fund the day-to-day operations of the Company's various Chinese subsidiaries and are not expected to be available to fund the non-Chinese operations of the Company in the foreseeable future.
At June 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005, the Company has classified these funds as restricted cash. The revision in classification to restricted cash of $648,119, previously reflected in cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 2005, and the corresponding adjustment to the accompanying Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2005, includes changes in restricted cash in investing activities and does not affect previously reported cash flows from operations or from financing activities in the Company's previously reported Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, or its previously reported Consolidated Statements of loss for any period.

Zi Corporation Reports Results for 2006 Second Quarter, First Six-Months
Friday August 11, 8:00 am ET
CALGARY, ALBERTA--(MARKET WIRE)--Aug 11, 2006 -- Zi Corporation (TSX:ZIC.TO - News)(NASDAQ:ZICA - News), a leading provider of intelligent interface solutions, today reported results for its second quarter and first six months ended June 30, 2006. (Unless otherwise indicated, all monetary amounts in this news release are in U.S. dollars.)
ADVERTISEMENT
Total revenues for this year's second quarter were $2.7 million compared to total revenues of $3.1 million for the second quarter of 2005. Revenue for the 2005 period included $0.2 million from e-learning operations that have since been divested. The remainder of the year-over-year decline in quarterly revenue was primarily due to decreases from two small- to mid-sized original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) that historically were significant sources of revenue, and that Zi believes are losing market share to the wireless industry's largest OEMs. The sequential revenue decline from the 2006 first quarter was due principally to revenue received in the first quarter of this year for fully paid-up licenses for the Company's technology to customers in the video gaming market, and $0.6 million of other product revenue resulting from the non-recurring, first quarter consolidation of Archer Education Group Inc. (Archer) results. Gross margin as a percentage of revenue for this year's second quarter was 97 percent versus 96 percent for the year earlier quarter.
The net loss for the 2006 second quarter was $3.0 million, or a loss per basic and diluted share of $0.07, compared to a net loss of $0.2 million, or a loss of $0.00 per basic and diluted share in the prior year period, which included a $1.4 million gain from the settlement of litigation. Year over year increases in legal fees of $0.6 million, lower revenue from licensing and implementation fees of $0.3 million and higher selling, general and administrative expense (SG&A) due to accounting for stock options and bad debt expense represented the balance of the increased loss.
This year's second quarter results included $0.4 million in stock-based compensation expense to reflect the adoption of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards 123(R), "Share Based Payment", (SFAS 123(R)) in the current year, whereas in last year's second quarter SFAS 123(R) had not been adopted.
New President and Chief Executive Officer Milos Djokovic, the Company's former Chief Technology Officer and Chief Operating Officer who was appointed President and CEO on May 26, said he was optimistic the sales and marketing initiatives currently underway would help return Zi to sustained revenue growth.
"We have several important transactions underway that we believe will provide impetus for the future," Djokovic said. "This is an important time for Zi and I look forward to leading the Company back to solid financial footing."
Djokovic noted that historically Zi has licensed its products to smaller and mid-sized mobile phone OEMs, with an emphasis on Asian-based OEMs. While the sale of mobile handsets globally reflects significant year over year growth, OEMs are under pressure by carriers to reduce device costs and ultimately the price paid by consumers. As a result of these and other factors, a number of the smaller and mid-sized OEMs have exited the handset device business, resulting in the larger OEM's increasing their relative market share because of their ability to provide low cost feature rich devices. In response to these market changes, Zi continues to shift its sales focus for its predictive text products to the largest OEMs, and has achieved some early success to such top-tier OEMs.
Zi is also shifting its focus through the development of new products, such as Qix, which is directed at mobile carriers on the basis that it can generate higher customer billings for the carrier by increasing the average revenue per user ("ARPU"). Based on higher ARPU's for the carriers, the Company believes that the carriers will pay a higher price for Qix compared to its predictive text products. Consumer market trials have shown that ARPU increases for carriers in the range of 30 percent are achievable, which has resulted in interest in Qix with a number of European and American carriers.
Djokovic said that key highlights of the second quarter included:
- The launch of Zi's most advanced predictive text solution for China to-date - a new version of eZiText® that is the only one in the world with run-on phase-level input for mobile devices - allowing users to type a phrase through Stroke, Pinyin or Zhuyin mode, even if a match cannot be found.
- The announcement of a sustained 33 percent increase in Average Revenue Per User (ARPU) for Virgin Mobile users with trial handsets since the operator began using Qix in the Summer of 2005.
- The announcement of the availability of Decuma for Arabic, the world's 5th largest language. Decuma Arabic is a personal and powerful pen-input solution featuring prediction.
- The integration of eZiText® predictive text software into Trolltech's Qtopia® application platform to enhance the power of today's mobile user interface and address the needs of the rapidly growing international market for Linux-based mobile devices.
Zi Corporation total revenues for the first six months of 2006 were $6.4 million compared to total revenues of $6.0 million for the comparable year earlier period. Revenue in this year's first six months included revenue recorded in this year's first quarter from customers in the video gaming market, which was offset by the second quarter decline in revenue from two OEMs that historically were significant sources of revenue. Total revenues for the first six months of 2006 included other product revenue from e-Learning of $0.6 million, compared to $0.4 million for the comparable year earlier period. The increase in other product revenue is principally due to the operations of Archer, which was consolidated with the Company from January 2006 to February 2006. The Company now holds approximately 45 percent of Archer common shares. Gross margin as a percentage of revenue in the first half of 2006 was 97 percent compared to 95 percent in the prior year period.
The net loss for this year's first six months was $5.3 million, or a loss per basic and diluted share of $0.11, compared to a net loss of $1.7 million, or a loss per basic and diluted share of $0.04 for the year-earlier period, which includes the $1.4 million gain for the settled litigation. The balance of the year over year increase in loss was represented by the following: increase in legal fees of $1.2 million; higher SG&A of $0.9 million as a result of accounting for stock options and bad debt expense; higher product research and development expense of $0.3 million; equity interest in the loss from Archer's operations $0.2 million; and higher income tax expense related to our Chinese operations of $0.2 million.
This year's six months results included $0.5 million in stock-based compensation expense to reflect the adoption of SFAS 123(R) in the current year, which as discussed above was not in effect last year.
The Company's balance sheet as of June 30, 2006 showed cash and cash equivalents of $4.7 million plus $1.7 million that is restricted for use for the Company's operations in China; total assets of $15.3 million; total liabilities of $6.0 million; a current ratio of 1.67:1; and shareholders' equity of $9.3 million.
Zi earned royalties from 50 and 61 licensees, respectively during the 2006 second quarter and first six months, compared to 57 and 59 in the respective year earlier periods. There were 120 new handset models embedded with eZiText released into the market in the 2006 second quarter, and for the first six months of this year, 170 new models were released into the market, bringing the total at the end of the first six months of 2006 to 1,170 compared to 930 at the end of the 2005 first six months.
SG&A expense in the second quarter of 2006 was $2.9 million compared to $2.3 million in the second quarter of 2005. The year-over-year increase in the 2006 second quarter was due to $0.3 million in stock-based compensation expense and $0.3 million in allowance for doubtful debt expense, reflecting, principally, the effective business discontinuance of certain Zi customers.
SG&A expense in the first six months of this year was $6.0 million compared to $5.1 million in the same prior last period. For the first six months of 2006, the increase in SG&A expense of $0.9 million was primarily due to the operations of Archer, which accounts for $0.6 million of the increase. This increase is offset by the deconsolidation of Archer late in the first quarter, which reduced SG&A in the second quarter by $0.3 million. The remaining increase in SG&A, after adjusting for the effects of Archer and the deconsolidation, is due to $0.3 million in stock based compensation expense and the provisions made for doubtful accounts.
The Company continues to invest in new product features and enhancements to software language databases along with continued investment in Qix and Decuma handwriting recognition software. Product research and development expense, net of capitalized costs, for the 2006 second quarter and first six months were $1.3 million and $2.5 million, respectively, compared to $1.2 million and $2.2 million in the respective year earlier periods. The Company capitalized $0.4 million and $0.8 million, respectively, in the 2006 second quarter and first six months, compared to $32,000 and $0.4 million in the respective periods in 2005.
Legal costs for the second quarter and first six months ended June 30, 2006 were $0.8 million and $1.7 million, respectively, compared to $0.3 million and $0.5 million for the same periods last year. The year-over-year increases in legal expense for the 2006 second quarter and first six months were due, in part, to defense costs related to the University of Texas action against numerous manufacturers of cell phones, of which one of the remaining defendants is a customer of Zi in the United States. As well, during 2005 a significant shareholder of the Company commenced actions to appoint its nominees to the Board of Directors of the Company, using shares that were allegedly illegally acquired and not in accordance with Alberta law or regulatory rules.

Zi Corporation (the "Company" or "Zi") is incorporated under the Business Corporations Act of Alberta. Zi develops software designed to enhance the usability of mobile and consumer electronic devices. On January 26, 2005, the Company purchased the assets of Decuma AB ("Decuma"), a Swedish company specializing in developing and marketing handwriting recognition software. The handwriting recognition software created by Decuma, with its patented Geometrical Invariant Technology, has the ability to recognize an individual's unique writing style. Through its e-Learning business segment which includes equity investments in Archer Education Group Inc. ("Archer") and previously Magic Lantern Group, Inc., the Company is indirectly involved in e-Learning technology, content and customer service, educational content and distribution channels to offer learning management systems and interactive online courses and network education solutions to meet diverse client requirements. Archer also provides personal and organizational teaching and learning through Canadian based schools.
2. GOING CONCERN BASIS OF PRESENTATION
These consolidated financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes that the Company will be able to realize its assets at the amounts recorded and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business in the foreseeable future. The Company has incurred operating losses and experienced net cash outflow on a recurring basis.
As at June 30, 2006, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $102,896,205, and for the six months then ended the Company incurred a loss of $5,315,590 and used cash in operating activities of $4,251,854. Continuing operations are dependent on the Company achieving profitable operations and being able to raise additional capital. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to the amounts and classifications of assets and liabilities that may be necessary should the Company be unable to raise additional capital and continue as a going concern. The Company can give no assurances that it will be successful in raising additional capital or achieving profitability.
3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The accompanying consolidated financial statements are prepared by management in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP"). The accounting policies used in preparing these interim consolidated financial statements are consistent with those used in the preparation of the 2005 annual consolidated financial statements, however, they do not include all disclosures normally provided in annual consolidated financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the 2005 annual consolidated financial statements. In management's opinion, the unaudited consolidated financial statements include all adjustments necessary to present fairly such information. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the fiscal year.
Restatement of income tax expense
For the year ended December 31, 2004, the Company's income tax expense has been restated to reflect actual income tax expense for a previously understated liability. According to the Peoples Republic of China ("PRC") taxation law, those Foreign Investment Entities ("FIE") established in China that are involved in "productive" activities are entitled to tax holidays and tax reductions. These FIE tax benefits include a two-year tax holiday followed by a 50 percent reduction of the otherwise applicable tax rate for the following three years. Our Chinese subsidiary, Huayu Zi Software Technology (Beijing) Co. Ltd. ("Huayu Zi") had been categorized as a productive-type FIE in all of its PRC statutory filings, including its routine filings to tax authorities and believed it was entitled to the tax holiday and tax rate reductions.
PRC tax authorities tightened the scope of FIE tax incentives and narrowed the tax holiday and reduction entitlement to those entities engaged in productive activities or engaged in "encouraged" industries. Changes to the operations of Huayu Zi in 2004 resulted in decreases in its research and development spending and revenues generated from productive activities (as defined under the FIE guidelines) which were below the stipulated levels required to qualify as a FIE eligible for the tax holidays and reductions. As a result, the Company should have recorded an increase in the income tax liability and expense of $336,161 for the year ended December 31, 2004. The Company previously disclosed in its consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2004, a contingent liability of $166,871 for 2004 income tax.
The accumulated deficit as at December 31, 2005, previously reported as $97,244,454, has been restated to $97,580,615 to show the effect of the restatement of the 2004 income tax expense.
Restricted cash
At June 30, 2006, the Company held the U.S. dollar equivalent of $1,747,702 (December 31, 2005 - $648,119) in Chinese Renminbis through its principal Chinese subsidiary. Due to Chinese government regulations pertaining to the capitalization of Chinese companies, these funds are available to fund the day-to-day operations of the Company's various Chinese subsidiaries and are not expected to be available to fund the non-Chinese operations of the Company in the foreseeable future.
At June 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005, the Company has classified these funds as restricted cash. The revision in classification to restricted cash of $648,119, previously reflected in cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 2005, and the corresponding adjustment to the accompanying Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2005, includes changes in restricted cash in investing activities and does not affect previously reported cash flows from operations or from financing activities in the Company's previously reported Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, or its previously reported Consolidated Statements of loss for any period.

Hallo DR.DIAMOND,
Habe hier nochmal eine Meldung aus 2005 ausgegraben:
Zi Corp's Decuma Japanese handwriting technology selected for new Motorola 3G smartphone
06/09/2005 by Parthajit
Zi Corporation, a provider of intelligent interface solutions, today announced that its advanced handwriting recognition solution, Decuma Japanese, is embedded in the newly launched FOMATM M1000 3G smartphone, now available through Japan's mobile operator NTT DoCoMo, Inc. Co-developed by NTT DoCoMo and Motorola, the FOMA M1000 is reported to be the world's first-ever WLAN-integrated W-CDMA and GSM/GPRS dual-mode smartphone. The FOMA M1000 is manufactured by Motorola.
The Decuma Japanese handwriting recognition solution is expected to provide FOMA M1000 smartphone owners with a new interface capability that will allow them to significantly increase writing speed.
Quelle: http://www.digitalmediaasia.com/default.asp?ArticleID=10031
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Gehe ich recht in der Annahme, dass Zi Corp bzw. Decuma diese Technik auch für die chinesische Sprache liefern?
Ich bin darauf durch die folgende Motorola Meldung gekommen:
Telekommunikation / 15.08.2006 / 10:54 Trackback
China: SMS mit 13.000 Schriftzeichen
Software erkennt mit dem Finger gemalte Zeichen
Motorola hat ein System entwickelt, mit dem auch Chinesen SMS tippen können. Knackpunkt: Die traditionelle chinesische Schrift hat etwa 13.000 Zeichen, die vereinfachte Version immer noch über 6.000 Schriftzeichen. Zeichen für Zeichen eintippen geht also nicht. Malen dagegen ist eine Lösung.
Im Rahmen einer Fallstudie hat Motorola gezeigt, wie Chinesen eine SMS schreiben können. Zum Einsatz kommt jedoch kein klassischer Touchscreen - der wäre in der Produktion viel zu teuer - sondern ein System, mit dem der Nutzer die Zeichen malen kann.
Die Entwickler der Motorola Labs Shanghai mussten dabei mehrere technische Hürden überwinden: Zum einen stand mit einer gewöhnlichen Handytastatur nur ein sehr begrenzter Raum zur Verfügung, auf dem gemalt werden kann. Zum anderen muss die Technik, um exakt zu arbeiten, genau den Druckpunkt im Zentrum des Fingers erfühlen, um so exakt zu bestimmen, welche Laute gezeichnet werden.
Die Forscher entschieden sich für eine kapazitive Drucktechnik, wie sie auch in Lift-Knöpfen verwendet wird und kombinierten sie mit einer Schrift-Erkennunngs-Software, die den Tipppunkt des Fingers bestimmen, Schriftzüge erkennen und mögliche weitere Zeichen bzw. Worte ähnlich wie T9 voraussagen kann.
Den Forschern gelang es schließlich, ein System zu entwickeln, das Zeichen erkannte, die mit einem Zug ausgeführt wurden. Zugleich konnte das System auch Zeichen identifizieren, die in einer anderen als der üblichen Reihenfolge gezeichnet wurden. Schließlich wurde eine Silbenerkennung hinzugefügt, die auf Pinyin-Unterstützung basiert und selbst weitere Silben bzw. mögliche Wörter vorschlägt.
Ende 2004 wurden erste Prototypen getestet. Inzwischen gibt es in China drei Mobiltelefone von Motorola, die die Schreibtechnik unterstützen. Wie das aussieht, demonstriert Motorola in einem kurzen Video. (yg)

Frage: Ist das eine reine Motorola-Entwicklung? Oder steckt da nicht auch ZI Corp/Decuma mit drin?

Antwort auf Beitrag Nr.: 23.454.190 von NOBODY_III am 15.08.06 13:38:12So weit ich informiert bin ist Zi und Decuma auch beteiligt an dieser Entwicklung.
Antwort auf Beitrag Nr.: 23.458.962 von DR.DIAMOND am 15.08.06 19:08:16Dann müsste sich das doch auch noch auszahlen. Oder ist das Pulver schon verschossen?
Antwort auf Beitrag Nr.: 23.459.130 von NOBODY_III am 15.08.06 19:20:33Ich glaube nicht das Zi das Pulver schon verschossen hat.Aber
anscheinend kann man mit dieser Technologie kein Geld - oder anders

Zi Corporation Signs Agreement with One of Top Ten Global Wireless Service Operators for Qix'TM'
Wednesday September 27, 8:00 am ET
First Deployment of Qix Mobile Search & Discovery Solution
CALGARY, ABLBERTA--(MARKET WIRE)--Sep 27, 2006 -- Zi Corporation (TSX:ZIC.TO - News)(NASDAQ:ZICA - News), a leading provider of intelligent interface solutions for mobile devices, today announced it has signed a contract with a major global wireless service operator to incorporate Zi's revolutionary mobile search and service discovery solution, Qix, into its wireless mobile devices. It is expected that a joint announcement will be made with the operator when units ship into the marketplace during fourth quarter of 2006.
ADVERTISEMENT
The agreement calls for Zi to receive an upfront fee plus a unit license fee for every handset embedded with Qix sold by the operator. A full customization package will be provided to support carrier branding and enhance end-user experience. Zi expects that a successful initial rollout will be followed by large-scale deployment on multiple handsets and platforms.
This deal follows a trial with UK operator Virgin Mobile that demonstrated a 33 percent increase in ARPU (average revenue per user) among consumers in the trial. These trial results back Zi's claim that Qix is the key to removing barriers to revenue-producing features on mobile handsets. Based on the significant revenue opportunities that Qix brings to customers, the fee structure for this type of agreement represents a considerable increase when compared to the license fees the Company typically receives for its other user input technologies.
Zi President and CEO Milos Djokovic commented, "This agreement is a major milestone achievement for Zi. It is the first revenue generating agreement for our breakthrough Qix technology with a major wireless operator and it is a key step in our strategy to capture a significant share of the global wireless market with Qix."
"We are proud of our reputation as innovators and with Qix we feel we have made a significant contribution towards helping users get the most from their phones - while helping operators generate much-needed increased revenues," added Djokovic. "Qix has already proved itself with Virgin Mobile and it is now set to help other operators around the world."
About Qix
Qix is an innovative mobile search and service discovery solution that enables rapid discovery of contacts, features, services and more, on mobile handsets. Qix removes barriers to revenue-producing features on mobile phones by significantly reducing the number of key presses needed to navigate through content. As a result, it increases service usage and adoption resulting in greater ARPU for carriers. Qix interactive memory remembers user data for future access, and tracks and prioritizes frequently used personal selections based on individual usage patterns.
About Zi Corporation
Zi Corporation is a technology company that delivers intelligent interface solutions to enhance the user experience of wireless and consumer technologies. The company provides device manufacturers and network operators with a full range of intuitive and easy-to-use input solutions, including: eZiType(TM) for keyboard prediction with auto-correction; eZiText® for one-touch predictive text entry; Decuma® for predictive pen-input handwriting recognition; and the Qix search and service discovery engine to enhance the user experience and drive service usage and adoption. Zi's product portfolio dramatically improves the usability of mobile phones, PDAs, gaming consoles and television set-top boxes and the applications on them including SMS, MMS, e-mail and Internet browsing. Zi supports its strategic partners and customers from offices in Asia, Europe and North America. A publicly traded company, Zi Corporation is listed on the Nasdaq National Market (ZICA) and the Toronto Stock Exchange (ZIC).

echt wahnsinn das teil heute....bin mal gespannt ob dann morgen hier mehr handel ist. also eigentlich müsste das doch so sein, oder!?!
Antwort auf Beitrag Nr.: 24.240.117 von kiwi03 am 27.09.06 19:49:44Die deutschen Anleger hatten ja sogar recht damit, sich bei Zi Corp
zurückzuhalten. Sie haben sich dadurch erhebliche Kursverluste erspart.
Heute gab es nur einen vorsichtigen Kauf an der Börse Frankfurt:
Frankfurt
ZIC / EUR 0,73 +35,19 % 18:38:52 27.09.2006 Vol. 2.500
In Amerika ist soeben die 1,00 USD Marke geknackt worden mit einem Plus von 49,25 %.
Volume: 351,919
Kurse oberhalb der 1,00 USD Marke sind dringend nötig, um einem Delisting an der Nasdaq zu entgehen.
Früher wurde Zi Corp auch in D stärker beachtet, wie der folgende Chart zeigt:
Schade, dass es Zi Corp nicht geschafft hat, aus dem Boom in Japan, Korea und China Kapital zu schlagen, noch nicht.
Hinzu kommen einige Börsen-Querelen in Amerika, die noch nicht geklärt sind und den Kurs entsprechend belasten. Näheres geht aus dem vorigen Zi Corp Thread hervor.
Inzwischen hatte die Aktie mit 1,07 USD + 59,7 % ein neues Tageshoch erreicht, fiel danach aber wieder auf 1,04 USD zurück.
Bin gespannt wie es weitergeht. Bisher setzte 2, spätestens 3 Tage nach solchen Spurts wieder eine Gegenbewegung ein. Leider ist Zi Corp ein Zocker-Wert geworden.
Es wäre schön, wenn sich die Qualität mal wieder durchsetzen könnte.

Hallo DR.DIAMOND,
Müssen wir nach der heutigen Rallye wieder einen neuen Thread aufmachen? Oder sollten wir das
Thema: ZI CORP - ein einziges Desaster [Thread-Nr: 1076481]
als Kontraindikator betrachten? War ja auch etwas provoziert....
Was sagst Du zu der heutigen Entwicklung? Du bist ja gewöhnlich gut informiert in Sachen Zi Corp.
Die Aktie schwankt inzwischen heftig zwischen 1,12 und 1,19 USD.
Volumen mittlerweile 666.359 Aktien.
Hier ein interessanter Beitrag aus dem Message Board:
ZICA - the 'Animal House' of stocks (Not rated) 36 minutes ago Gotta love today's 'double secret' announcement...i.e. 'we have a contract, but we can't talk about it for up to 3 months'! Well, if that were the case, why did they even bring it up....oh, that's right, they needed to support their stock price and allow some profit taking and dumping and help them avoid a delisting notice (LOL)! Pure manipulation, but probably just 'legal' enough to avoid SEC investigation, so enjoy it while you can...if you're smart enough to get out while you can.
Watch the dead cat bounce...yet again.

Hallo DR.DIAMOND,
Im Message Board fand ich folgenden Beitrag:
Magic Lantern also signed a big (Not rated) 16-Oct-06 contract with Sympatico and then it went broke. Anybody remembers that? I hope it doesn't happen to Zi with all this hype over Qix, LOL.
Hast Du eine Ahnung, was damit gemeint ist?

Zi Corporation Licenses eZiText'R' to Nintendo for Revolutionary Wii Games Console
Monday November 6, 11:52 am ET
eZiText'R' Enters Rapidly Expanding Global Video Gaming Industry
CALGARY, ALBERTA--(MARKET WIRE)--Nov 6, 2006 -- Zi Corporation (NASDAQ:ZICA - News) (TSX:ZIC.TO - News), a leading provider of intelligent interface solutions, today announced that it has signed, exclusive licensing agreement with Nintendo Co., Ltd. to embed its predictive text input technology, eZiText, into Wii, Nintendo's revolutionary new video games console. Wii launches on 19th November in North America, 2nd December in Japan and 8th December in Europe.

"Nintendo is a worldwide leader in video game systems and has a reputation for bringing innovative technology to the market," said Milos Djokovic, President and CEO, Zi Corporation. "By embedding eZiText in Wii, Nintendo is empowering its customer with a more user friendly method for text input."
"This announcement heralds the future use of eZiText outside of conventional mobile usage," continued Djokovic. "The global gaming industry has become a worldwide phenomenon and is becoming an important new avenue for the distribution of our products. As such, we will continue to progressively pursue new gaming customers."
Nintendo characterizes Wii as a console that "will revolutionize how people play games...it will entice new players into the world of video games by offering a variety of entertainment, information and communication channels."
The announcement with Nintendo is the third entrance into the multi-billion dollar international gaming industry for Zi products and the second agreement with Nintendo, a well-known Japanese company and a global leader in video gaming. In 2005, Zi licensed its Decuma® handwriting recognition technology to Nintendo for use in the Nintendo DS handheld video game system. Also in early 2005, Gizmondo Europe Ltd embedded Zi Corporation's eZiTap(TM) predictive text technology into a feature-rich handheld entertainment console.

Who sold at 94 cents yesterday (Not rated) 25 minutes ago must be real geniuses...not. Even a fool could make money on Zi because today's event was telegraphed long in advance, all you had to do was to buy and wait, ahaha. Even this guy who sold today could be a fool because now we have the second leg of the rally after the initial selloff earlier. Let's see where this thing ends. We could have another "Googgle" here in the long run.

Hallo DR.DIAMOND,
Bei der Suche nach ähnlich starken Umsätzen (heute bislang 4,848,205 Aktien) bin ich auf einen Zi Corp Kurs von 40,88 USD am 7.2.2000 gestoßen.
So weit wird es wohl so schnell nicht mehr gehen, aber doch bemerkenswert.
Hast Du eine Erklärung für die heutige Rallye?
Wie wird es Deiner Meinung nach weitergehen?
Aktuell Rücksetzer bis auf 1,87 USD.

Nun,dass Problem bei Zi ist bekannt.Viele Kontrakte aber kein
grosser Gewinn.Ich weis auch nicht warum das so ist.Weitere gute
Meldungen müssen folgen um die Investoren bei der Stange zu halten.
Das wird sich dann automatisch auf den Kurs auswirken.In solchen

Antwort auf Beitrag Nr.: 26.423.947 von DR.DIAMOND am 23.12.06 08:28:53Ich bin gespannt was heute abgeht.Alles ist möglich
Antwort auf Beitrag Nr.: 26.470.400 von DR.DIAMOND am 26.12.06 09:01:23Ist Dir auch aufgefallen, daß da jemand mit 100er Positionen versucht hat, die Kursbildung zu beieinflussen? Die Ausführung lag dann zum Teil kräftig oberhalb der Ask-Kurse.
Ich glaube, im Message Board hat auch jemand darauf hingewiesen.
In der Schlußphase liefen dagegen kräftige Gewinnmitnahmen oder auch Leerverkäufe.
Besondere News, die über die bereits bekannten Meldungen hinausgehen, habe ich nicht gefunden. Insofern bin ich auch sehr gespannt auf die heutige Entwicklung.

Zi Corp ist damit innerhalb 2 Tagen von 0,94 auf 2,56 USD gestiegen. Das entspricht einem Plus von 172,34 %.
Diese Entwicklung ist vom Volumen her nicht vergleichbar mit den bisherigen 2 tägigen Rallies, denen gewöhnlich ein herber Kurssturz folgte.

Inzwischen scheint man umzudenken. Das Shorten der Zi Corp Aktie funktioniert nicht mehr. Im Gegenteil, die Leerverkäufer müssen sich jetzt eindecken. Entweder treibt eine Short Squeeze die Kurse. Oder es steckt noch mehr dahinter.
Möglicherweise ist Zi Corp nach den letzten Abschlüssen auf dem Ausverkaufsniveau von 0,94 USD ein interessanter Übernahmekandidat geworden. Vielleicht hat das auch der eine oder andere Hedgefonds erkannt und versucht nun, daraus Kapital zu schlagen. Das wäre ja nicht das erste Mal.
Morgen muß sich zeigen, ob es sich lediglich um eine der üblichen Spekulationen handelt oder ob mehr dahinter steckt.

ZI Corp. (ZICA): the rally of Calgary, Canada based software maker last for two days as profit taking today send the stock down 13.67% to $2.21 per share with ten times average volumn of 3.37 million shares traded. The stock was the fourth leading decliner on Nasdaq.
http://stockonthemove.blogspot.com/2006/12/stocks-on-move-de…
Im Zica Message Board meint man:
This is a keeper (diese Aktie hält man).
Nach Handelsbeginn rauschte Zi Corp von 2,21 erstmal in den Keller (1,94 USD) und pendelt nun wieder um 2,16 USD - 2,27 %.
Alles wundert sich über das seit 3 Tagen riesige Handelsvolumen um 6 Mio, aber bisher traute sich niemand, über die Hintergründe zu orakeln.
Bisher liefen die Zi Corp Rallies immer nur 2 Tage. Dann folgte die Trendwende. Wie es scheint, läuft es auch dieses Mal nach dem Muster ab. Ich würde mich im eigenen Interesse freuen, wenn ich mich heute irre.

Zi Corporation and Marty Steinberg, Receiver for the Lancer Funds, Enter into Standstill Agreement
Thursday June 22, 8:00 am ET
CALGARY, ALBERTA--(MARKET WIRE)--Jun 22, 2006 -- Zi Corporation (TSX:ZIC.TO - News)(NasdaqNM:ZICA - News), a leading provider of intelligent interface solutions, today announced that it has entered into a mutual agreement with Marty Steinberg, the receiver for the Lancer Funds, that will facilitate discussion towards a possible resolution of each others\' concerns.
ADVERTISEMENT
The Lancer Entities, which have been in receivership since 2003, control approximately 40 percent of Zi\'s outstanding common shares. These shares represent one of the Lancer Entities\' most significant assets. Both Zi and the Receiver initiated legal actions against each other.
The standstill agreement provides for, among other things:
- Adjournment and stay of all legal proceedings currently underway for 90 days.
- An agreement that Zi and the Receiver will not start any new legal proceedings against each other for 90 days.
- Dialogue between Zi and the Receiver about the Receiver\'s concerns regarding the constitution of Zi\'s board of directors, and the timing and manner of the Receiver\'s disposition of its Zi shares.
Because the legal proceedings between Zi and the Receiver are in part about whether the Receiver can vote its Zi shares for a different slate of directors at Zi\'s 2006 Annual General Meeting (AGM), Zi and the Receiver have also agreed that Zi will seek a Court Order allowing it to adjourn the holding of its AGM to no later than February 28, 2007.
In order to implement the standstill, Zi and the Receiver will have to make several joint applications to the courts and securities commission for adjournments. The standstill is conditional on those applications being granted.

Zi Corporation Sells its Minority Ownership Stake in Archer Education Group
Friday March 30, 8:00 am ET
CALGARY, ALBERTA--(MARKET WIRE)--Mar 30, 2007 -- Zi Corporation (Toronto:ZIC.TO - News)(NasdaqGM:ZICA - News) ("Zi" or the "Company"), a leading provider of intelligent interface solutions for mobile devices, today announced the sale of the minority ownership stake held by Zi and one of its subsidiaries in privately-held Archer Education Group Inc., a Vancouver-based international education company ("Archer"), for CDN$736,800 in cash, or approximately US$629,300.
ADVERTISEMENT
The book value of the Archer shares sold had previously been reduced to zero by Zi; therefore, the Company expects to record a gain on the sale in the first quarter of this year of approximately US$629,300.
Zi's President and Chief Executive Officer Milos Djokovic said, "With the completion of this sale, we no longer have any ownership interest in Archer and the e-Learning business segment. The funds we received from this transaction will be combined with our other resources and invested in growing our core Zi Technology business, which we believe is well positioned to capitalize on the many near and longer-term opportunities we see in the expanding mobile handset and gaming markets worldwide."

Zi Corporation Responds to Nuance's Litigation Proceedings
Wednesday August 20, 5:55 pm ET
CALGARY, ALBERTA--(MARKET WIRE)--Aug 20, 2008 -- Zi Corporation (Toronto:ZIC.TO - News) (NasdaqCM:ZICA - News) ("Zi" or the "Company") today announced that it received notice yesterday from Nuance Communications, Inc. ("Nuance") of a motion filed against Zi in the United States District Court, Northern District of California, San Francisco Division.
The motion accuses Zi of violating a 2002 consent judgment which settled a patent litigation with Tegic Communications, Inc. ("Tegic") involving Zi's eZiText software. Tegic was recently acquired by Nuance.
ADVERTISEMENT
Milos Djokovic, President and CEO of Zi stated: "This motion for contempt is without merit. Providing this notice is clearly a tactic employed by Nuance in light of its failed proposal to acquire Zi last week at a low valuation. The timing of this motion is highly suspicious and is an unnecessary legal tactic by Nuance. We are disappointed that Nuance is resorting to these kinds of tactics to acquire Zi without recognizing its full value. We will vigorously defend ourselves in this litigation proceeding. We are examining all legal remedies available to us with respect to Nuance's tactics."
Zi reported on August 15, 2008 that it has declined to enter into negotiations with Nuance for a cash offer for Zi shares at a price of US$0.80 per common share, after Zi's board of directors concluded that such proposal did not recognize the full value of Zi.
