INTERDIGITAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 2026
(unaudited)
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited, condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of the financial position of InterDigital, Inc. (individually and/or collectively with its subsidiaries referred to as “InterDigital,” the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our,” unless otherwise indicated) as of June 30, 2026, the results of our operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 and our cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025. The accompanying unaudited, condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and, accordingly, do not include all of the detailed schedules, information and notes necessary to state fairly the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). The year-end condensed consolidated balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP for year-end financial statements. Therefore, these financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 (our “2025 Form 10-K”) as filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 5, 2026. Definitions of capitalized terms not defined herein appear within our 2025 Form 10-K. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the entire year. We have one reportable segment.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Change in Accounting Policies
There have been no material changes or updates to our existing accounting policies from the disclosures included in our 2025 Form 10-K, except as indicated below in "New Accounting Guidance".
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year amounts to conform to the current year presentation.
Supplemental Cash Flow Information
The following table presents additional supplemental cash flow information for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 (in thousands):

New Accounting Guidance
Accounting Standards Update: Induced Conversions of Convertible Debt Instruments
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-04, "Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20): Induced Conversions of Convertible Debt Instruments". The amendments in ASU 2024-04 require disclosures for determining whether certain settlements of convertible debt instruments should be accounted for as an induced conversion. ASU 2024-04 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2025, with early adoption allowed. We adopted this guidance as of January 1, 2026, and there was no impact of this adoption on our consolidated financial statements.
Accounting Standards Update: Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software
In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, "Intangibles—Goodwill and Other Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40)". The amendments in ASU 2025-06 amend certain aspects of the accounting for and disclosure of software costs under ASC 350-40. ASU 2025-06 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption allowed. We adopted this guidance as of January 1, 2026, and there was no material impact of this adoption on our consolidated financial statements.
Accounting Standards Update: Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, "Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses". The amendments in ASU 2024-03 require disclosures about specific types of expenses included in the expense captions presented on the Consolidated Statements of Income, as well as disclosures about selling expenses. ASU 2024-03 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, with early adoption allowed. We are currently evaluating the impact of adoption on our financial disclosures.
Accounting Standards Update: Interim Reporting (Topic 270): Narrow-Scope Improvements
In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-11 to amend the guidance in “Interim Reporting” (Topic 270). The amendments provide clarifications intended to improve the consistency and usability of interim disclosure requirements, including a comprehensive listing of required interim disclosures and a new disclosure principle for reporting material events occurring after the most recent annual period. The amendments do not change the underlying objectives of interim reporting but are designed to enhance clarity in application. ASU 2025-11 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, including interim periods within those fiscal years. We are currently evaluating the impact of adoption on our consolidated financial statements.

3. CASH, CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK AND FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Restricted Cash
Cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash currently consist of money market and demand accounts. The following table provides a reconciliation of total cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash as of June 30, 2026, December 31, 2025, and June 30, 2025 to the captions within the condensed consolidated balance sheets and condensed consolidated statements of cash flows (in thousands):

| Cash and cash equivalents | $ | $ | $ | ||||||||||||||
| Restricted cash included within prepaid and other current assets | |||||||||||||||||
Total cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash | $ | $ | $ | ||||||||||||||
Concentration of Credit Risk and Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Financial instruments that potentially subject us to concentration of credit risk consist primarily of cash equivalents, short-term investments, and accounts receivable. We place our cash equivalents and short-term investments only in highly rated financial instruments and in United States government instruments.
Our accounts receivable and contract assets are derived principally from patent license and technology solutions agreements. Three licensees comprised 83 % and 55 % of our accounts receivable balances as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. We perform ongoing credit evaluations of our licensees, who generally include large, multinational, wireless telecommunications and consumer electronics equipment manufacturers. We believe that the book values of our financial instruments approximate their fair values.
Fair Value Measurements
We use various valuation techniques and assumptions when measuring the fair value of our assets and liabilities. We utilize market data or assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk and the risks inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique. This guidance established a hierarchy that prioritizes fair value measurements based on the types of inputs used for the various valuation techniques (market approach, income approach and cost approach). The levels of the hierarchy are described below:
Level 1 Inputs — Level 1 includes financial instruments for which quoted market prices for identical instruments are available in active markets.
Level 2 Inputs — Level 2 includes financial instruments for which there are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the instrument such as quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets) or model-driven valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data, including market interest rate curves, referenced credit spreads and pre-payment rates.
Level 3 Inputs — Level 3 includes financial instruments for which fair value is derived from valuation techniques including pricing models and discounted cash flow models in which one or more significant inputs are unobservable, including the Company’s own assumptions. The pricing models incorporate transaction details such as contractual terms, maturity and, in certain instances, timing and amount of future cash flows, as well as assumptions related to liquidity and credit valuation adjustments of marketplace participants.

Recurring Fair Value Measurements
Our financial assets are generally included within short-term investments on our condensed consolidated balance sheets, unless otherwise indicated. Our financial assets and liabilities that are accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis are presented in the tables below as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 (in thousands):

5. OBLIGATIONS
2027 Notes and Related Note Hedge and Warrant Transactions
On May 27, 2022, we issued $460.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 3.50 % Senior Convertible Notes due in 2027 (the "2027 Notes"). The net proceeds from the issuance of the 2027 Notes, after deducting the initial purchasers' transaction fees and offering expenses, were approximately $450.0 million. The 2027 Notes bear interest at a rate of 3.50 % per year, payable in cash on June 1 and December 1 of each year, commencing on December 1, 2022, and mature on June 1, 2027, unless earlier redeemed, converted or repurchased.
13
The 2027 Notes will be convertible into cash up to the aggregate principal amount of the 2027 Notes to be converted and in respect of the remainder, if any, of the Company’s obligation in excess of the aggregate principal amount of the 2027 Notes being converted, pay or deliver, as the case may be, cash, shares of the Company’s common stock or a combination thereof, at the Company’s election. The initial conversion rate was 12.9041 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of the 2027 Notes. Effective July 8, 2026, the conversion rate was adjusted to 13.0351 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of the 2027 Notes (which is equivalent to a conversion price of approximately $76.72 per share), subject to further adjustment. From the period January 1, 2024 through September 30, 2026, the holders of the 2027 Notes have the right, but not the obligation, to convert any portion of the principal amount of the 2027 Notes. As such, the 2027 Notes are included in "Current portion of long-term debt" in our condensed consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025.
The 2027 Notes are the Company’s senior unsecured obligations and rank equally in right of payment with any of the Company’s current and any future senior unsecured indebtedness. The 2027 Notes are effectively subordinated to all of the Company’s future secured indebtedness, if any, to the extent of the value of the related collateral, and the 2027 Notes are structurally subordinated to indebtedness and other liabilities, including trade payables, of the Company’s subsidiaries.
On May 24 and May 25, 2022, in connection with the offering of the 2027 Notes, we entered into convertible note hedge transactions ("2027 Note Hedge Transactions") that cover, subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments, approximately 5.9 million shares of common stock, in the aggregate, at a strike price that corresponds to the conversion price of the 2027 Notes, subject to adjustment, and are exercisable upon any conversion of the 2027 Notes. Also, on May 24 and May 25, 2022, we entered into privately negotiated warrant transactions ("2027 Warrant Transactions"), whereby we sold warrants to acquire, subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments, approximately 6.0 million shares of common stock. As of June 30, 2026, the warrants under the 2027 Warrant Transactions had a strike price of $105.43 per share, subject to adjustment, and mature beginning September 2027 through April 2028.
In December 2025, holders elected to convert $80.0 million principal amount of the 2027 Notes, which was settled in the first quarter of 2026. We paid the $80.0 million principal amount in cash and issued 0.8 million shares to settle the conversion spread. These shares issued were offset by 0.8 million shares received upon partial settlement of the 2027 Note Hedge Transactions, resulting in no incremental outstanding shares resulting from the conversion. As of June 30, 2026, $380.0 million in principal of the 2027 Notes remains outstanding, of which holders had elected to convert $80.3 million principal amount, which will settle in third quarter 2026. No incremental outstanding shares will result from such conversions due to the offsetting impact of the 2027 Note Hedge Transactions, however the 2027 Warrant Transactions described above remain outstanding.
The following table reflects the carrying value of our Convertible Notes long-term debt as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 (in thousands):

Technicolor Patent Acquisition Long-Term Debt
On July 30, 2018, we completed our acquisition of the patent licensing business of Technicolor SA ("Technicolor"), a worldwide technology leader in the media and entertainment sector (the "Technicolor Patent Acquisition"). In conjunction with the Technicolor Patent Acquisition, we assumed Technicolor’s rights and obligations under a joint licensing program with Sony relating to digital televisions and standalone computer display monitors, which commenced in 2015 (the "Madison Arrangement"). An affiliate of CPPIB Credit Investments Inc. ("CPPIB Credit"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Canada Pension Plan Investment Board, is a third-party investor in the Madison Arrangement. CPPIB Credit made certain payments to Technicolor and Sony and agreed to contribute cash to fund certain capital reserve obligations under the arrangement in exchange for a percentage of future revenue, specifically through September 11, 2030 in regard to the Technicolor patents.
Upon our assumption of Technicolor’s rights and obligations under the Madison Arrangement, our relationship with CPPIB Credit meets the criteria in ASC 470-10-25 - Sales of Future Revenues or Various Other Measures of Income ("ASC 470"), which relates to cash received from an investor in exchange for a specified percentage or amount of revenue or other measure of income of a particular product line, business segment, trademark, patent, or contractual right for a defined period. Under this guidance, we recognized the fair value of our contingent obligation to CPPIB Credit, as of the acquisition date, as long-term debt in our condensed consolidated balance sheet. This initial fair value measurement was based on the perspective of a market participant and included significant unobservable inputs which are classified as Level 3 inputs within the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of the long-term debt as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 is disclosed within Note 3, "Cash, Concentration of Credit Risk and Fair Value of Financial Instruments." Our repayment obligations are contingent upon future royalty revenue generated from the Madison Arrangement and there are no minimum or maximum payments under the arrangement.
Under ASC 470, amounts recorded as debt are amortized under the interest method. At each reporting period, we will review the discounted expected future cash flows over the life of the obligation. The Company made an accounting policy election to utilize the catch-up method when there is a change in the estimated future cash flows, whereby we will adjust the carrying amount of the debt to the present value of the revised estimated future cash flows, discounted at the original effective interest rate, with a corresponding adjustment recognized as interest expense within “Interest expense” in the condensed consolidated statements of income. The effective interest rate as of the acquisition date was approximately 14.5 %. This rate represents the discount rate that equates the estimated future cash flows with the fair value of the debt as of the acquisition date and is used to compute the amount of interest to be recognized each period based on the estimated life of the future revenue streams. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, we recognized $0.4 million and $1.0 million, respectively, of interest expense related to this debt, compared to $0.6 million and $0.8 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively. These amounts were included within “Interest expense” in the condensed consolidated statements of income. Any future payments made to, or additional proceeds received from, CPPIB Credit will decrease or increase the long-term debt balance accordingly. We made $8.0 million and $1.3 million in payments to CPPIB Credit during the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively.
Technicolor Contingent Consideration
As part of the Technicolor Patent Acquisition, we entered into a revenue-sharing arrangement with Technicolor that created a contingent consideration liability. Under the revenue-sharing arrangement, Technicolor receives 42.5 % of future cash receipts from new licensing efforts under the Madison Arrangement only, subject to certain conditions and hurdles. As of June 30, 2026, the contingent consideration liability from the revenue-sharing arrangement was deemed not probable and is therefore not reflected within the condensed consolidated financial statements.

In September 2025, the Company filed an application for permission to cross-appeal. The Supreme Court heard the appeal in April 2026.

In the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company had an estimated effective tax rate of 14.1 % and 13.7 %, respectively. The change in effective tax rate is due to an increase in the amount of non-deductible officer’s compensation. During the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company recorded discrete net benefits of $11.0 million and $5.6 million, respectively, primarily related to share-based compensation.
The One Big Beautiful Bill Act (the “OBBBA”) was signed into law on July 4, 2025. The OBBBA contains significant tax law changes with various effective dates affecting business taxpayers. The tax law changes affecting the Company primarily involve changes to the timing and amount of certain tax deductions, including those related to Foreign-Derived Deduction Eligible Income (FDDEI), Net CFC Tested Income (NCTI), depreciation, R&D expenditures, and interest expense. The OBBBA did not have a material impact on our financial statements in second quarter 2026.
The effective tax rate reported in any given year will continue to be influenced by a variety of factors, including timing differences between the recognition of book and tax revenue, the level of pre-tax income or loss, the foreign vs. domestic classification of the Company’s customers, and any discrete items that may occur.
During the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company paid approximately $19.7 million and $14.5 million, respectively, in foreign source creditable withholding tax.

Shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise or conversion of certain securities have been excluded from our computation of EPS because the strike price or conversion rate, as applicable, of such securities was greater than the average market price of our common stock and, as a result, the effect of such exercise or conversion would have been anti-dilutive.

Convertible Notes and Warrants
Refer to Note 5, "Obligations," for information about the Company's convertible notes and warrants and related conversion and strike prices. During periods in which the average market price of the Company's common stock is above the applicable conversion price of the Company's convertible notes, or above the strike price of the Company's outstanding warrants, the impact of conversion or exercise, as applicable, would be dilutive and such dilutive effect is reflected in diluted EPS. As a result, in periods where the average market price of the Company's common stock is above the conversion price or strike price, as applicable, under the if-converted method, the Company calculates the number of shares issuable under the terms of the convertible notes and the warrants based on the average market price of the stock during the period, and includes that number in the total diluted shares outstanding for the period.

9. SEGMENT PERFORMANCE MEASURES AND EXPENSES
Our Chief Executive Officer, who is our chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), assesses company-wide performance and allocates resources based on consolidated financial information. Consequently, we view the entire organization as one reportable segment and the strategic purpose of all operating activities is to support that one segment. Our CODM evaluates company-wide performance based on multiple performance measures, including, but not limited to, net income. Our CODM does not generally evaluate our performance using asset or historical cash flow information.
The table below provides the calculation of net income, which is the performance measure that is most consistent with GAAP, and the significant operating expenses included in this performance measure (in thousands):

Item 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
OVERVIEW
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the unaudited, condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, in addition to our 2025 Form 10-K, other reports filed with the SEC and the Statement Pursuant to the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 — Forward-Looking Statements below.
Throughout the following discussion and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we refer to “catch-up revenue.” For variable and dynamic fixed-fee license agreements, “catch-up revenue” primarily represents revenue associated with reporting periods prior to the execution of the license agreement.
New Agreements
During second quarter 2026, we entered into an agreement with Amazon, covering Amazon’s services and devices, including Amazon Prime Video. The parties have agreed to resolve all pending litigation and will enter into binding arbitration to determine the final terms of the new patent license agreement. We believe this agreement advances our longer-term strategy to expand our video streaming services licensing program. During second quarter 2026, we began recognizing revenue based on a conservative estimate, consistent with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States ("GAAP"), in respect of this agreement.
Additionally, we signed a new IoT patent license agreement with a fintech company in the payments space. The agreement covers the licensee’s point-of-sale devices under InterDigital’s global patent portfolio related to the cellular 3G and 4G standards, and the Wi-Fi 5 and Wi-Fi 6 standards.
Disney UPC Injunctions
In rulings in June and July 2026, respectively, the Mannheim and Dusseldorf Local Divisions of the Unified Patent Court (the "UPC") ruled that we are entitled to injunctions over Disney’s infringement of InterDigital patents covering certain video encoding techniques related to HEVC and confirmed the validity of the patents. The UPC is a pan-European patent court which issues decisions that apply across multiple countries in the European Union (EU). The injunctions against Disney each span 11 EU countries, including France, Germany, and Italy. In their rulings, both UPC tribunals concluded that Disney is an "unwilling licensee" based on its conduct. Disney can appeal the decisions.
Other injunctions have been issued by courts in Germany and Brazil for Disney’s infringement of InterDigital’s intellectual property related to high dynamic range technology, the dynamic overlaying of multiple video streams, and additional compression technologies related to HEVC and AVC.
For more information on these proceedings, see Note 6, “Litigation and Legal Proceedings,” to the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Notes, Hedge, and Warrant Transactions
During second quarter 2026, the 2027 Notes had a dilutive impact of 3.7 million shares, which is offset from an economic standpoint by the 2027 Note Hedge Transactions and would result in no incremental outstanding shares after conversion. However, under GAAP, we are required to exclude the impact of the shares received from the 2027 Note Hedge Transactions counterparties from the calculation of weighted-average diluted shares outstanding.
From the period January 1, 2024 through September 30, 2026, the holders of the 2027 Notes have the right, but not the obligation, to convert any portion of the principal amount of the 2027 Notes. As of June 30, 2026, $380.0 million in principal of the 2027 Notes remains outstanding, of which holders had elected to convert $80.3 million principal amount, which will settle in third quarter 2026. No incremental outstanding shares will result from such conversions.
As of June 30, 2026, 6.0 million warrants remain outstanding related to the 2027 Warrant Transactions at a strike price of $105.43 per share, subject to adjustment, which mature on a net-share basis beginning September 2027 through April 2028. Refer to "Financial Position, Liquidity, and Capital Resources — Convertible Notes" for further information regarding how changes in our stock price would affect the number of shares issuable related to the 2027 Warrant Transactions. For example, if the share price averaged $275 between September 2027 and April 2028, we would issue 3.7 million shares of common stock related to the 2027 Warrant Transactions.
24
Return of Capital
In June 2026, we announced a regular quarterly cash dividend of $0.70 per share, which is a 17% increase compared to the dividend declared in second quarter 2025. During second quarter 2026, we returned $41.0 million to shareholders, including $23.0 million through the repurchase of shares of common stock and $18.1 million, or $0.70 per share, of cash dividends declared.
As of June 30, 2026, there was $96.1 million remaining under the share repurchase authorization, which we plan to utilize to periodically repurchase additional common shares. See Part II, Item 2 - Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds—Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Cash and Short-term Investments
As of June 30, 2026, we had $1.1 billion of cash, restricted cash, and short-term investments and approximately $1.9 billion of cash payments due under contracted fixed price agreements, which includes our conservative estimates of the minimum cash receipts that we expect to receive under the Lenovo and Amazon arbitrations.
93% of our second quarter 2026 revenue came from fixed-fee agreements. Such agreements often have prescribed payment schedules that are uneven and sometimes front-loaded, resulting in timing differences between when we collect the cash payments and recognize the related revenue.
The following table reconciles the timing differences between cash receipts and recognized revenue during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, including the resulting operating cash flow (in thousands):

(a) Fixed-fee cash receipts are comprised of cash receipts from Dynamic Fixed-Fee Agreement royalties, including the associated catch-up revenue.
(b) Other cash receipts are primarily comprised of cash receipts related to our variable patent royalty revenue and catch-up revenue.
When we collect payments on a front-loaded basis, we recognize a deferred revenue liability equal to the cash received and accounts receivable recorded which relate to revenue expected to be recognized in future periods. That liability is then reduced as we recognize revenue over the balance of the agreement. The following table shows the projected amortization of our current and long-term deferred revenue as of June 30, 2026 (in thousands):

Revenue
Second quarter 2026 revenue of $260.2 million includes $103.7 million of catch-up revenue, while second quarter 2025 revenue of $300.6 million includes $162.3 million of catch-up revenue. The $40.4 million decrease in total revenue was driven by lower catch-up revenue, partially offset by recurring revenue recognized from thirteen patent license agreements signed since second quarter 2025. In second quarter 2026, revenue (in descending order) from Amazon, Apple, and Samsung each comprised 10% or more of our consolidated revenue. Refer to "Results of Operations — Second Quarter 2026 Compared to Second Quarter 2025" for further discussion of our 2026 revenue.
25
Smartphone, CE, IoT/Auto, and Streaming and Cloud Services are the Company's licensing programs. The Smartphone revenue grouping consists primarily of smartphones and also includes other wireless communication devices and infrastructure equipment, such as tablets, and base stations. The CE, IoT/Auto revenue grouping consists of consumer electronics and IoT products, such as televisions, laptops, gaming consoles, set-top boxes, streaming devices, and connected automobiles. The Streaming and Cloud Services revenue grouping consists of SVOD, AVOD, global pay-TV, video conferencing, cloud gaming, and other cloud-based services.
Impact of Macroeconomic and Geopolitical Factors
We have been actively monitoring the impact of the current macroeconomic environment in the U.S. and globally characterized by market volatility, inflation, supply chain issues, high interest rates, tariffs and other potential trade-related sanctions, and the potential for a recession. These market factors, as well as the impacts of global conflicts, have not had a material impact on our business to date. However, if these conditions continue or worsen, they could have an adverse effect on our operating results and our financial condition.
Comparability of Financial Results
When comparing second quarter 2026 financial results against other periods, the following items should be taken into consideration:
Revenue
•Our second quarter 2026 revenue includes $103.7 million of catch-up revenue primarily related to the Amazon agreement signed in second quarter 2026.
Operating Expenses
•During second quarter 2026, we incurred $13.7 million of nonrecurring share-based compensation costs driven by business successes.
Other income, net
•During second quarter 2026, we recognized a gain of $1.0 million resulting from observable price changes of our long-term strategic investments, which was included within “Other income, net” in the condensed consolidated statement of income.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 2, "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and New Accounting Guidance", in the notes to condensed consolidated financial statements included in our 2025 Form 10-K. A discussion of our critical accounting policies, and the estimates related to them, are included in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our 2025 Form 10-K. There have been no material changes to our existing critical accounting policies from the disclosures included in our 2025 Form 10-K. Refer to Note 1, “Basis of Presentation,” in the notes to condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for updates related to new accounting pronouncements and changes in accounting policies.
FINANCIAL POSITION, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Our primary sources of liquidity are cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments, as well as cash generated from operations. We believe we have the ability to obtain additional liquidity through debt and equity financings. From time to time, we may engage in a variety of transactions to augment our liquidity position as our business dictates and to take advantage of favorable interest rate environments or other market conditions, including the incurrence or issuance of debt and the refinancing or restructuring of existing debt. Based on our past performance and current expectations, we believe our available sources of funds, including cash, cash equivalents, short-term investments, and cash generated from our operations, will be sufficient to finance our operations, capital requirements, debt obligations, existing stock repurchase program, dividend program, and other contractual obligations discussed below in both the short-term over the next twelve months, and the long-term beyond twelve months.
26
Cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, and short-term investments
As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, we had the following amounts of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, and short-term investments (in thousands):
| June 30, 2026 | December 31, 2025 | Increase/(Decrease) | |||||||||||||||
| Cash and cash equivalents | $ | 615,590 | $ | 738,960 | $ | (123,370) | |||||||||||

Total cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, and short-term investments | $ | 1,121,204 | $ | 1,258,468 | $ | (137,264) | |||||||||||
The net decrease in cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, and short-term investments was attributable to cash used in financing activities of $211.3 million and cash used in investing activities of $29.3 million, excluding sales and purchases of short-term investments, partially offset by cash provided by operating activities of $98.6 million. Refer to the sections below for further discussion of these items.
Cash flows provided by operating activities

| Net cash provided by operating activities | $ | 98,617 | $ | 85,129 | $ | 13,488 | |||||||||||
Our cash flows provided by operating activities are principally derived from cash receipts from patent license agreements, offset by cash operating expenses and income tax payments. The $13.5 million change in cash provided by operating activities was primarily driven by higher cash receipts due to the timing of receipts under new and existing agreements and was partially offset by higher cash operating expenses, including increased revenue share and intellectual property enforcement costs. The table below sets forth the significant items comprising our cash flows provided by operating activities during the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 (in thousands):

______________________________
(a) Cash operating expenses include operating expenses less depreciation and disposals of fixed assets, amortization of patents, and non-cash compensation. Amount includes revenue share costs of $28.4 million and $5.2 million in first half 2026 and 2025, respectively.
(b) Income taxes paid include foreign withholding taxes.
Cash flows from investing and financing activities
Net cash used in investing activities for first half 2026 was $17.2 million, a $5.0 million change from $22.2 million in first half 2025. During first half 2026, we sold $12.1 million of short-term marketable securities, net of purchases, and capitalized $31.0 million of patent costs and capital expenditures. During first half 2025, we sold $18.0 million of short-term marketable securities, net of purchases, and capitalized $40.2 million of patent costs and capital expenditures.
27
Net cash used in financing activities for first half 2026 was $211.3 million, a change of $125.6 million from $85.6 million in first half 2025. This change was primarily attributable to an $80.0 million payment related to the partial conversion of the 2027 Notes in first half 2026. The change also reflects higher cash outflows in 2026, including a $22.6 million increase in taxes withheld on restricted stock unit vestings due to a higher share price at vesting and a $9.0 million increase in dividends paid following the increases in the declared dividend from $0.60 to $0.70. In addition, during first half 2025, we received $7.3 million due to the exercise of stock options.
Other
Our combined short-term and long-term deferred revenue balance as of June 30, 2026 was approximately $442.2 million, a net increase of $112.6 million from December 31, 2025. This increase in deferred revenue was primarily due to cash receipts on new and existing patent license agreements, partially offset by amortization of deferred revenue recognized in the period.
Based on current license agreements, we expect the amortization of dynamic fixed-fee royalty payments to reduce the June 30, 2026 deferred revenue balance of $442.2 million by $325.7 million over the next twelve months.
Convertible Notes
See Note 5, “Obligations” to the Notes to condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for definitions of capitalized terms below.
From January 1, 2024 through September 30, 2026, the holders of the 2027 Notes have the right, but not the obligation, to convert any portion of the principal amount of the 2027 Notes.
Our 2027 Notes are included in the diluted earnings per share ("diluted EPS") calculation using the if-converted method in accordance with GAAP. Under the if-converted method, we assume that conversion of convertible securities occurs at the beginning of the reporting period. The 2027 Notes are convertible into cash up to the aggregate principal amount of the 2027 Notes to be converted and any value in excess of the principal amount (the "conversion spread") may be settled in cash, shares of the Company’s common stock, or a combination thereof. As the principal amount is required to be paid in cash and only the conversion spread may result in shares being issued, we only include the net number of incremental shares that would be issued upon conversion. We calculate the number of shares of our common stock issuable under the terms of the 2027 Notes based on the average market price of our common stock during the applicable reporting period and include that number in the weighted‑average diluted shares outstanding for the period.
At the time we issued the 2027 Notes, we entered into the 2027 Note Hedge Transactions and 2027 Warrant Transactions (collectively, the "2027 Call Spread Transactions") that together were designed to have the economic effect of reducing potential dilution upon conversion of the 2027 Notes by, in effect, increasing the conversion price of the 2027 Notes on an economic basis. However, under GAAP, since the impact of the 2027 Note Hedge Transactions is anti-dilutive, we exclude from the calculation of diluted EPS the shares of our common stock that we would receive from the counterparties upon settlement of the 2027 Note Hedge Transactions.
During periods in which the average market price of our common stock is above the applicable conversion price of the 2027 Notes (conversion price of approximately $76.72 per share, subject to adjustment), or above the strike price of the warrants (strike price of $105.43 per share, subject to adjustment), the impact of conversion of the 2027 Notes or exercise of the warrants, as applicable, would be dilutive and such dilutive effect is reflected in diluted earnings per share. In those periods, we calculate the incremental shares associated with the 2027 Notes (under the if‑converted method) or the warrants based on the average market price of our common stock during the period and include those incremental shares in weighted‑average diluted shares outstanding.
Under the if-converted method, changes in the price per share of our common stock can have a significant impact on the number of shares that we must include in the diluted EPS calculation. As described in Note 5, "Obligations" in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the 2027 Notes are convertible into cash up to the aggregate principal amount of 2027 Notes to be converted and any remaining obligations may be settled in cash, shares of the Company’s common stock or a combination thereof ("net share settlement"). Assuming net share settlement upon conversion, the following table illustrates how changes in our stock price would affect the shares issuable under the 2027 Notes and related warrant transactions, the incremental shares included in diluted EPS under the if‑converted method (“Total Incremental Shares”), the shares deliverable to us under the 2027 Note Hedge Transactions, and the resulting net incremental shares, based on $380.0 million aggregate principal amount outstanding and approximately 6.0 million related warrants as of June 30, 2026 (in thousands):

Total revenue of $260.2 million decreased compared to second quarter 2025, primarily due to catch-up revenue from the Samsung arbitration and HP agreement recognized in second quarter 2025, partially offset by catch-up revenue from the Amazon agreement recognized in second quarter 2026. This decrease was partially offset by revenue from thirteen new agreements signed in the last twelve months, including the Amazon agreement and the previously announced Xiaomi, Honor, and LG TV agreements.
In second quarter 2026 and 2025, 68% and 78%, respectively, of our total revenue was attributable to licensees that individually accounted for 10% or more of our total revenue. In second quarter 2026 and 2025, the following licensees accounted for 10% or more of our total revenue:

Operating expenses increased to $120.9 million in second quarter 2026 compared to $95.2 million in second quarter 2025. The $25.8 million increase in total operating expenses was primarily due to changes in the following items (in thousands):

| Share-based compensation | 12,267 | ||||
| Other | 41 | ||||
Total increase in operating expenses | $ | 25,762 | |||
The $25.8 million increase in operating expenses was driven by a $13.5 million increase in intellectual property enforcement costs related to ongoing proceedings and a $12.3 million increase in share-based compensation costs due to recent business successes.
Research and portfolio development expense: Research and portfolio development expense increased slightly compared to second quarter 2025 primarily due to the above-noted share-based compensation costs and depreciation.
Licensing expense: Licensing expense increased compared to second quarter 2025 primarily due to the above-noted change in intellectual property enforcement costs.
General and administrative expense: General and administrative expense increased compared to second quarter 2025 primarily due to the above-noted increase in share-based compensation costs.

Income Taxes
In second quarter 2026 and 2025, based on the statutory federal tax rate net of discrete federal and state taxes, we had an effective tax rate of 18.8% and 14.4%, respectively. The change in effective tax rate is primarily due to an increase in the amount of non-deductible officer’s compensation.
