2 cases as defendant.
I'll research this company before writing the profile.
Let me research the specific case and the plaintiff.
Fujifilm North America Corporation (commonly "Fujifilm North America" or FNAC) is the principal U.S. marketing and sales subsidiary of FUJIFILM Holdings America Corporation, the Americas regional headquarters based at 200 Summit Lake Drive, Valhalla, New York. It was created effective January 1, 2010 (Florida foreign-corporation registration filed January 15, 2010), consolidating FUJIFILM U.S.A., Inc. and FUJIFILM Graphic Systems U.S.A. Inc. Both entities are subsidiaries of FUJIFILM Holdings Corporation (Tokyo; TSE: 4901), the publicly traded Japanese parent, which reports over 70,000 employees globally across its healthcare, electronics, business innovation, and imaging segments. FNAC's own headcount and revenue are not separately disclosed in public sources; only the parent's consolidated figures are available.
FNAC operates as a distribution and marketing organization with multiple divisions, per Fujifilm's own site: Imaging (INSTAX instant cameras, instant film, smartphone printers, photographic paper, film, one-time-use cameras); Electronic Imaging (GFX and X Series mirrorless digital cameras, lenses, accessories); Optical Devices (broadcast, cinematography, CCTV, and industrial lenses, plus binoculars); Graphic Communication / Business Innovation (digital inkjet presses, production toner printers, CTP plates, Sericol and UV inks, workflow software); Industrial Products (data storage tape including LTO media, desalination and filtration membranes); and Non-Destructive Testing (radiography). It is an operating company, not an NPE.
Its tracked patent-litigation posture is defensive: 0 cases as plaintiff and 1 as defendant. In that sole case it is a co-defendant, consistent with an operating company being targeted rather than asserting patents.
The tracked case is Cine Graphic Solutions LLC v. FUJIFILM Holdings America Corporation et al., No. 1:21-cv-07917 (S.D.N.Y.), filed in 2021 and assigned to Judge Vernon S. Broderick. Plaintiff Cine Graphic Solutions is characterized by Unified Patents as an NPE and a subsidiary of Strategic Intellectual Solutions, LLC; the asserted patents (including U.S. 7,388,587, covering embedding animation in electronic communications such as emails and websites) have also been asserted against Motorola and Samsung. The venue is the Southern District of New York, not the Eastern District of Texas. Unified Patents ran a prior-art contest on the '587 patent in late 2021.
RAH Color Technologies LLC sued Fujifilm entities in the Northern District of Illinois; the '314 patent was one of eight asserted patents. The outcome was not confirmed in the narrative.
Cine Graphic Solutions LLC sued FUJIFILM Holdings America Corp. and Fujifilm North America Corp. in S.D.N.Y., docket 1:21-cv-07917. The narrative reports early-stage activity in late 2021, as part of the 2021–2022 NPE wave asserting US 8,035,644 and sibling patents US 7,388,587 and US 7,629,977, but does not verify the outcome.
