So if this case, and even many cases like this that are either in court or would potentially be filed in the next several quarters, actually do succeed and Microsoft ends up paying a few billion in damages ... it will have a minimal impact on the company's bottom line.
I think there is a bit of a concern out there regarding the health of their advertising and e-commerce revenues and some concern regarding the backlog. I think it's possible that they could miss the (ad and e-commerce) number.
I'm not concerned about their cash position, financial health or the impact it would have on their bottom line. And it certainly won't have any impact on their top line.
The financial impact to Microsoft would be minimal.
