Group 1: Investigation Details - GoPro filed the investigation on March 29, 2024, claiming that the company's products infringe on six U.S. intellectual property rights, including stabilization algorithms and design patents [1][2]. - The ITC's preliminary ruling indicated that only a portion of the company's exported products fell under one of GoPro's design patents, and the new design proposed by the company was confirmed not to infringe on that patent [2]. Group 2: Company's Response - The company has established a special task force and engaged a legal team specializing in Section 337 investigations to actively respond to the claims [2]. - The company has prepared new design solutions and has applied to the USPTO for an IPR procedure to invalidate GoPro's asserted patents, with some patents currently under review [2]. Group 3: Impact on the Company - The ongoing Section 337 investigation is an administrative review process and does not involve patent damage compensation, meaning it will not have a substantial impact on the company's current production and operations [3]. - A parallel lawsuit related to the same intellectual property claims was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California, which has been suspended pending the outcome of the ITC investigation [3].
