WiLan seems to thrive purely on the money made through lawsuits such as these. We noted in 2013 that the company had come upon hard times financially and was attempting to turn around its misfortune with successful lawsuits against companies with deep pockets, such as Apple.

That's a weirdly one-sided article. If they won, they are in the right. Easy as that.

Apple ordered to pay $85M in damages following retrial of WiLan patent infringement case

A jury in San Diego, California has ruled that Apple must pay WiLan a total of $85 million for patent infringement, as reported by Bloomberg. This was a retrial of a case from last year in which WiLan won $145 million, a ruling that was set aside by U.S. District Judge Dana Sabraw.

The two patents at the heart of this infringement case cover ways to make phone calls and simultaneously download data. One is for a “method and apparatus for bandwidth request protocols in a wireless communication system,” while the other is for “adaptive call admission control for use in a wireless communication system.”
What comes next in this trial remains to be seen, but for now, Apple is on the hook for $85 million.
