-
Q1 2026 saw $104.8M revenue, 60% adjusted EBITDA margin, and strong cash flow, driven by new multi-year deals with AMD and Microsoft. Non-pay TV recurring revenue grew 28% year-over-year, and S&P upgraded the credit rating to BB. CEO announced plans to step down later in 2026.

The company has transformed post-separation by expanding its patent portfolio and diversifying revenue streams beyond pay-TV into OTT, e-commerce, and semiconductors. Hybrid bonding and RapidCool are driving innovation, while major deals with Amazon, Disney, and AMD set industry precedents.
Fiscal Year 2025
-
Record 2025 revenue and EBITDA exceeded guidance, driven by new deals in OTT, semiconductors, and media. 2026 guidance anticipates continued growth, with OTT and non-pay-TV segments expanding and litigation expenses rising to support IP protection.
-
Q3 revenue was $87.3 million, with strong non-Pay TV recurring growth and new license deals. 2025 revenue guidance was revised down to $360–$380 million due to AMD litigation, but a robust pipeline supports optimism for 2026 growth.
-
Second quarter revenue was $85.7 million with strong cash generation and debt reduction. Recurring revenue in non-pay TV segments grew 28% year-over-year, and the company reiterated full-year guidance, supported by new customer wins and the launch of RapidCool technology.
-
Q1 2025 saw $87.7M in revenue and strong cash flow, with four new customers and ten license deals signed. Full-year guidance is unchanged, with growth in OTT, semiconductors, and social media offsetting Pay TV declines. Litigation and macro risks are being monitored.
Fiscal Year 2024
-
Record Q4 revenue and cash flow were driven by strong deal momentum, especially in OTT and semiconductors. Debt reduction, share repurchases, and new patent acquisitions supported growth, while 2025 guidance anticipates mid to high single-digit revenue growth and increased litigation expenses.
-
Q3 revenue reached $86.1M with a 60% Adjusted EBITDA margin, driven by seven new and renewed deals across key verticals. Revenue guidance for 2024 was adjusted to $370M–$400M due to deal timing, while a $200M share repurchase program was authorized.
-
Q2 revenue and Adjusted EBITDA met expectations, driven by new and renewed licensing deals across key markets. Debt repricing improved financial flexibility, and full-year guidance was reiterated with lower expense forecasts. Significant pipeline growth is expected in OTT and semiconductors.
