Lawsuit Alleges Unethical Biz Practices from CI Brands Perceived as Upstanding Citizens

On Monday, Snap One revealed that it had filed a lawsuit against two other well-known, if smaller, brands, alleging patent infringement and a range of illicit and unethical business practices that it claims violated existing contractual agreements. The defendants in this matter are Josh.ai and AVA.

The allegations, if true, are really quite surprising.

Masimo in Massive Proxy War with Politan; Future of Sound United Hangs in the Balance

June 8, 2023 by Ted Leave a Comment

These are turbulent times at Masimo Corp. [NASDAQ: MASI] as the company continues its pitched battles against Apple Inc. for patent infringement and against activist investment group Politan Capital Management which seeks two Board seats for new oversight at the company. Mailings to MASI investors began in early May and continue to increase in frequency – and intensity – in the days leading up to the company’s Annual Meeting of Stockholders on June 26, 2023.

What’s it all about? Largely, it is about Masimo’s $1 billion acquisition of Sound United (now Masimo Consumer) which caused the company’s market value to drop over $5 billion the day after the acquisition was announced. It appeared to be a clear repudiation of the management strategy by Masimo investors.

Parasound CEO Sheriff Presents His Plan to Dealers; Some Won’t Be Around to Benefit

June 2, 2023 by Ted 6 Comments

Parasound CEO David Sheriff

Last week, in a national online Teams conference with dealers, Parasound CEO David Sheriff presented his plans for the company’s future. Tightly scripted, the CEO spoke with a firm resolve in a no-nonsense manner. It was clear that the initiatives he announced that day were not topics for more discussion or debate, but rather what is going to happen. And he made it clear that some dealers viewing the online presentation that day will likely not agree with these plans, and that’s fine.

“Let’s talk about parting ways,” Sheriff said, looking directly into the camera without blinking.
