We have
strongly contested the allegations and denied wrongdoing throughout the
proceedings , and will continue to pursue all legal avenues to arrive at a just
outcome to this matter. The Court 's
decision clearly demonstrates that ACNielsen acted lawfully and that
the allegations made by IRI were unfounded. The Court ruled that IRI's expert
report on liability and damages, to the extent it relied on the
improper analysis could not be presented at trial.
