5. ROYALTIES

 

The Company is a party to two licensing agreements with SensorMedics and VivoMetrics. The Company received royalty income from the sale of its diagnostic monitoring hardware and software from SensorMedics and previously received royalties from VivoMetrics prior to its bankruptcy. There was no royalty income from the SensorMedics license during the three and nine months ended April 30, 2016 and 2015. SensorMedics indicated they will discontinue licensed product sales after inventory is depleted and, therefore, the royalty revenue from SensorMedics is expected to be minimal to none. There were no royalties recognized from VivoMeterics for the three and nine months ended April 30, 2016 and 2015. VivoMetrics ceased operations in July 2009 and filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in October 2009. Under VivoMetrics’ approved bankruptcy plan of reorganization, our license with VivoMetrics was assigned to another company; however, there can be no assurance as to the future amount of royalty income, if any, that may result from this license.
