SAP AG, on trial because a now-defunct subsidiary downloaded Oracle Corp. software without authorization, owes at most $40.6 million for royalties it should have paid, SAP’s expert told a federal court jury.
Stephen Clarke, a damages expert hired by SAP to analyze how much the company may owe for infringing Oracle’s software, said damages should be based on the 358 customers the unit actually garnered, not the 3,000 customers that SAP had estimated might have left Oracle to become SAP customers.
