Just FYI these are Patent Cooperation Treaty applications, so they're not technically patent applications (at least not in the way most people think of them), and will never actually be granted. Effectively it's a way for SFI to claim "patent pending", worldwide, with a minimum of fuss/expenditure.
They can then use this PCT application to file for actual patents with individual countries down the line. This is pretty standard procedure for a company that believes it may have worldwide applications for its invention, but doesn't have the resources to immediately file for patents in all of those countries (or it may just be uncertain on exactly which countries it wants to target).
