Westerngeco LLC, Petitioner v. Ion Geophysical Corporation.

Summary

The Court held that § 284 permits recovery of lost foreign‑profit damages when infringement is found under § 271(f)(2), reasoning that the statutory focus is the domestic act of supplying components and thus the damages are a permissible domestic application. It reversed the Federal Circuit’s denial of lost‑profits damages and remanded for further proceedings consistent with this opinion.
