Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd & Anor v ZTE Corporation & Ors [2025] EWCA Civ 1383 (31 October 2025)
The Court of Appeal allowed ZTE’s appeal in a FRAND dispute, holding that seeking a preferred forum was not bad faith absent a substantiated objection to that forum.
The correct legal approach is the balancing exercise ('old test'), not an automatic redaction under the Trade Secrets Regulations. Both lump sum and per unit financial figures, as well as derived averages and totals, are confidential and their publication would materially harm the competitive position of the relevant parties. Therefore, all such information should be redacted from the published judgment. Factual errors should be corrected under the slip rule.
