Fewer people will by products with Android, so that anybody who is licensed to sell products with Android will have fewer sales and make less money.

Apple's aggressive patenting (that's the only way I can think to describe it) is limiting competitor's ability to release new phones that are appealing to the market. They will now have to take more time to innovate their phones in a way that Apple can't sue them for. Meanwhile, Apple's market share will grow and Androids will fall behind. Put simply Androids franchise is being damaged by Apples lawsuits. That's my take on it.
