Jeff Niew, President of Knowles Electronics, stated that “Knowles manufactures its microphone packages, along with other products, through a variety of methods. While we are disappointed with the Judge’s ruling and will seek further review from the ITC Commission, we remain unaffected in our ability to deliver our products to our customers, as the ruling applies to only one of those manufacturing methods”.
Peter Loeppert, Chief Technical Officer of Knowles Acoustics, further stated, “As we seek to protect our rights via the legal process Knowles will continue to bring award-winning products to the market as it has for years. Further, this ruling will have no impact whatsoever on the ability of our customers to continue to use our products without interruption.”
