That's exactly what they have to do, deny deny deny, regardless guilty or not, to say anything otherwise would jeopardise their own case. If there's more to this they cannot publicly disclose that,

who would say: "oh yeah sorry we found some old emails that says we agreed to this sorry our bad."

No one would, you deny and fight this because they have too much to lose and if they did admit there was an agreement in public their share price would plummet and mzn win, so no they would not say anything at all other than deny whether it's true or not the court will decide
