Sam, I don't disagree with your view, except that the assets of Lexar normally would consist of the bricks and mortar, equipment, proprietary technology (if any), and good will. Normally employees, while key to a technology company, don't appear on the books as assets. Meanwhile the liabilities would include an estimate of a judgment against Lexar if the case went to trial and the result were unfavorable for Lexar. Given that Lexar continues making chips without paying royalties, the damages by now could eat heavily into whatever assets Lexar has. But it's precisely because Lexar probably has some good employees that SanDisk might want to buy the company and retain at least some of those employees.
