Android and Its Patent Licenses Help Microsoft to Get $444 Million Every Year Android and Its Patent Licenses Help Microsoft to Get $444 Million Every Year(0)

It is already known that Microsoft will generate an income of $444 million every year, starting with 2011. Based on the analysts who work for Goldman Sachs, Microsoft is able to get these great results by simply closing different Android patent deals.

Currently, Microsoft gets between $3 and $6 per every Android device that it sells. And the patent deals add about $0.04 to its revenue. However, although these figures sound incredible for Microsoft, the total revenue for the fiscal year 2012 highlights only $75 billion, which actually means a $2.86 in EPS.

Thus, the incomes that Microsoft gets from Android are not that high after all. And besides the aspect that relates to the financial sphere, Android also damages the dominance that relates to Microsoft’s name within this market segment.
