Litigation Update
Texas Trial Stay Lifted - jury selection commences 12 September
2022
Nanoco Group plc (LSE: NANO), a world leader in the development
and manufacture of cadmium-free quantum dots and other specific
nanomaterials emanating from its technology platform, announces an
update to its litigation against Samsung for the willful
infringement of the Group's IP.
His Honour, Judge Gilstrap, has lifted the stay on the trial to
be held in Texas. The Judge rejected Samsung's request for a
further delay and ruled in favour of Nanoco to lift the stay. The
pre-trial conference date has been set for 16 August 2022 and jury
selection has been set for 12 September 2022. The trial is expected
to follow shortly thereafter.
Brian Tenner, Chief Executive Officer of Nanoco Group plc,
said:
"We were ready and confident to go to trial in September 2021.
We won all 47 of our claims examined by the Patent Trial and Appeal
Board in May 2022. This settled the issue of validity emphatically
in Nanoco's favour. So we are ready and even more confident to go
to trial in September 2022.
"The trial can now focus on the issue of Samsung's alleged
wilful infringement and the appropriate level of damages. We remain
convinced of the strength of our case and that a favourable trial
outcome will deliver a substantial inflection point for Nanoco's
prospects and shareholder value."

Notes for editors:
About Nanoco Group plc
Nanoco (LSE: NANO) harnesses the power of nano-materials.
Nano-materials are materials with dimensions typically in the range
1 - 100 nm. Nano-materials have a range of useful properties,
including optical and electronic. Quantum dots are a subclass of
nano-material that have size-dependent optical and electronic
properties. The Group produces quantum dots and other
nano-materials. Within the sphere of quantum dots, the Group
exploits different characteristics of the quantum dots to target
different performance criteria that are attractive to specific
markets or end-user applications such as the Display, Sensor and
Electronics markets. An interesting property of quantum dots is
their absorption spectrum. Nanoco's HEATWAVE(TM) quantum dots can
be tuned to absorb light at different wavelengths across the
near-infrared spectrum, rendering them useful for applications
including image sensors. Another interesting property of quantum
dots is photoluminescence: the emission of longer wavelength light
upon excitation by light of a shorter wavelength. The colour of
light emitted depends on the particle size. Nanoco's CFQD(R)
quantum dots are free of cadmium and other toxic heavy metals, and
can be tuned to emit light at different wavelengths across the
visible and infrared spectrum, rendering them useful for a wide
range of applications including displays, lighting and biological
imaging.
Nanoco was founded in 2001 and is headquartered in Manchester,
UK, with a US subsidiary, Nanoco Inc., in Concord, MA. Nanoco
continues to build out a world-class, patent-protected IP portfolio
generated both by its own innovation engine, as well as through
acquisition.
Nanoco is listed on the Main Market of the London Stock Exchange
