Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

June 30, 2025

  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, 2025, the results of our operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 and our cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024. 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, 2024 (our “2024 Form 10-K”) as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 6, 2025. Definitions of capitalized terms not defined herein appear within our 2024 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 haveone 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 2024 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.

New Accounting Guidance

Accounting Standards Update: Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures

In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Updates ("ASU") No. 2023-09, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures”. The amendments in the ASU enhance income tax disclosures, primarily through standardization, disaggregation of rate reconciliation categories, and income taxes paid by jurisdiction. ASU 2023-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption allowed. We adopted this guidance as of January 1, 2025, and we will include the necessary disclosures in our annual Form 10-K. The disclosures are required on an annual basis so there was no impact to this Form 10-Q.

Accounting Standards Update: Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, "Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses". The amendments in the ASU 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: Induced Conversions of Convertible Debt Instruments

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-04, "Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20): Induced Conversions of Convertible Debt Instruments". The amendments in the ASU 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 are currently evaluating the impact of adoption on our consolidated financial statements.

During the six months ended June 30, 2025, we recognized $108.5 million of revenue that had been included in deferred revenue as of the beginning of the period. As of June 30, 2025, we had contract assets of $343.8 million included within "Accounts receivable" and $9.0 million included within "Other non-current assets, net" in the condensed consolidated balance sheet. As of December 31, 2024, we had contract assets of $162.8 million included within "Accounts receivable" in the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

Contracted Revenue

Based on contracts signed and committed as of June 30, 2025, we expect to recognize the following revenue from dynamic fixed-fee royalty payments over the term of such contracts (in thousands):

Revenue (a)
Remainder of 2025$259,231
2026425,298
2027413,782
2028322,625
2029268,989

Total Revenue$1,922,425

(a) This table includes estimated revenue related to our Lenovo arbitration. In accordance with ASC 606, this estimate is limited to the amount of revenue we expect to recognize only to the extent we believe it is probable that a subsequent change in the estimate would not result in a significant revenue reversal.

  1. 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, 2025, December 31, 2024, and June 30, 2024 to the captions within the condensed consolidated balance sheets and condensed consolidated statements of cash flows (in thousands):

June 30,December 31,June 30,
202520242024
Cash and cash equivalents$517,894$527,360$299,762
Restricted cash included within prepaid and other current assets10,94224,1879,233
Total cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash$528,836$551,547$308,995

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 90% and 84% of our accounts receivable balances of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. We perform ongoing credit evaluations of our licensees, who generally include large, multinational, wireless telecommunications 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 input 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.

Our assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment and may affect the valuation of financial assets and financial liabilities and their placement within the fair value hierarchy. We use quoted market prices for similar assets to estimate the fair value of our Level 2 investments.

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, 2025 and December 31, 2024 (in thousands):

  1. 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.

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, at an initial conversion rate of 12.9041 shares of Common Stock per $1,000 principal amount of the 2027 Notes (which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $77.49 per share). From the period January 1, 2024 through September 30, 2025, 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, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

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 initially corresponds to the initial 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 5.9 million shares of common stock. As of June 30, 2025, the warrants under the 2027 Warrant Transactions had a weighted average strike price of $106.06 per share, subject to adjustment, and mature beginning September 2027 through April 2028.

2024 Notes, and Related Note Hedge and Warrant Transactions

On June 3, 2019, we issued $400.0 million in aggregate principal amount of Senior Convertible Notes due in 2024 (the "2024 Notes") that bore interest at a rate of 2.00% per year, payable in cash on June 1 and December 1 of each year, commencing on December 1, 2019, and matured on June 1, 2024.

In connection with the offering of the 2024 Notes, we entered into convertible note hedge transactions (collectively, the "2024 Note Hedge Transactions") that covered, subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments, approximately 4.9 million shares of common stock, in the aggregate, at a strike price that corresponded to the conversion price of the 2024 Notes, subject to adjustment, and were exercisable upon any conversion of the 2024 Notes. We also entered into privately negotiated warrant transactions (collectively, the "2024 Warrant Transactions" and, together with the 2024 Note Hedge Transactions, the "2024 Call Spread Transactions"), whereby we sold warrants to acquire, subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments, approximately 4.9 million shares of common stock at an initial strike price of approximately $109.43 per share, subject to adjustment.

During second quarter 2022, we repurchased $273.8 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2024 Notes in privately negotiated transactions concurrently with the offering of the 2027 Notes. In connection with the partial repurchase of the 2024 Notes, we entered into partial unwind agreements that amended the terms of the 2024 Call Spread Transactions to reduce the number of options corresponding to the principal amount of the repurchased 2024 Notes. The unwind agreements also reduce the number of warrants exercisable under the 2024 Warrant Transactions. As a result of the partial unwind transactions, approximately 3.3 million shares of common stock in the aggregate that were covered under each of the 2024 Note Hedge Transactions and the 2024 Warrant Transactions were unwound.

On June 1, 2024, the 2024 Notes matured and we repaid the remaining $126.2 million in aggregate principal in cash and issued 0.3 million common shares to settle the remaining obligation. This issuance was effectively offset by our receipt of 0.3 million shares from the settlement of the 2024 Note Hedge Transactions. Additionally, the 2024 Warrant Transactions settled, on a net-share basis, during September through December 2024 resulting in the issuance of 0.5 million shares.

The following table reflects the carrying value of our Convertible Notes long-term debt as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 (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, 2025 and December 31, 2024 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, 2025, we recognized $0.6 million and $0.8 million, respectively, of interest expense related to this debt, compared to $1.0 million and $1.6 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively. This was included within “Interest Expense” in the condensed consolidated statements of income. Any future payments made to CPPIB Credit, or additional proceeds received from CPPIB Credit, will decrease or increase the long-term debt balance accordingly. We made $1.3 million in payments to CPPIB Credit during the six months ended June 30, 2025 and $12.9 million in payments were made during the six months ended June 30, 2024.

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 from the Madison Arrangement only, subject to certain conditions and hurdles. As of June 30, 2025, the contingent consideration liability from the revenue-sharing arrangement was deemed not probable and is therefore not reflected within the consolidated financial statements.

  1. LITIGATION AND LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

ARBITRATIONS AND COURT PROCEEDINGS

Lenovo

In fourth quarter 2024, the Company reached an agreement with Lenovo Group Limited and certain of its subsidiaries (“Lenovo”) to enter into binding arbitration to determine the final terms of a new patent license agreement, which will be effective from January 1, 2024. In November 2024, the Company filed a request forarbitration with the International Chamber of Commerce. In March 2025, the International Chamber of Commerce confirmed the full tribunal for the arbitration.

Samsung

The Company reached an agreement with Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd. (“Samsung”) to enter into binding arbitration to determine the final terms of a renewed patent license agreement to certain of the Company’s patents, to be effective from January 1, 2023. The Company and Samsung also agreed not to initiate certain claims against the other during the arbitration. In March 2023, the Company fileda request forarbitration with the International Chamber of Commerce.

The arbitration hearing was held in July 2024, and closing arguments were held in October 2024. On July 28, 2025, a panel of International Chamber of Commerce arbitrators determined the royalties of the patent license between the Company and Samsung covering Samsung’s products other than digital televisions and computer display monitors, which have been licensed under a separate agreement. The panel set the total royalties at $1.05 billion for theeight-year patent license.

Tesla

In December 2023, Tesla and certain of its subsidiaries filed a claim in the UK High Court against the Company and Avanci. The claim alleges invalidity of three of the Company’s patents relating to 5G standards: European Patent (UK) Nos. 3,718,369, 3,566,413, and 3,455,985. Tesla sought, among other relief, a declaration that the patents at issue are invalid, not essential, and not infringed, revocation of the patents at issue, a declaration that the terms of the Avanci 5G Connected Vehicle platform license are not FRAND, and adetermination of FRAND terms for a license between Tesla and Avanci covering its Avanci’s 5G Connected Vehicle platform. In March 2024, the Company filed ajurisdiction challenge; the jurisdiction challenge was heard during May and June 2024, and in July 2024 the UK High Court issued a judgment dismissing Tesla’s FRAND claims against the Company and Avanci, and maintaining Tesla’s patent claims against the Company. The patent claims against the Company were further stayed by the UK High Court.

Tesla sought permission to appeal the decision; the Company also sought permission to appeal on two limited grounds conditionally, should Tesla’s request for an appeal begranted. The appeal hearing was held in December 2024, and the UK Court of Appeal upheld the lower court's decision and refused Tesla’s requestfor permission to appeal. Tesla filed an application for permission to appeal to the Supreme Court. In July 2025, the Supreme Court granted Tesla’s request for permission to appeal the issues of whether pool licenses are arguably required to be FRAND, whether all members of the Avanci 5G Platform must be joined to the case, and whether Tesla’s claim advances the possibility of a bilateral license from the Company.

OTHER

We are party to certain other disputes and legal actions inthe ordinary course of business, including arbitrations and legal proceedings with licensees regarding the termsof their agreements and the negotiation thereof. We do not currently believe that these matters, even ifadversely adjudicated orsettled, would have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. None of the preceding matters have met the requirements for accrual or disclosure of a potential range as of June 30, 2025, except as noted above.

  1. INCOME TAXES

In the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company had an estimated effective tax rate of 13.7% and 18.6%, respectively. The change in effective tax rate is due to an increase in the amount of Foreign Derived Intangible Income ("FDII") deduction benefit available to the Company and tax benefits related to share-based compensation. In addition, the Company is subject to a decrease in the Global Intangible Low-Tax Income inclusion derived from the decrease in French revenue. During the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company recorded discrete net benefits of $5.6 million and $2.4 million, respectively, primarily related to share-based compensation.

The One Big Beautiful Bill Act (the “Act”) was signed into law on July 4th, 2025. The Act contains significant tax law changes with various effective dates affecting business taxpayers. Among the tax law changes that will impact the Company relate to the timing and amount of certain tax deductions including FDII, depreciation expense, R&D expenditures and interest expense. The Company will implement the tax law changes in the third quarter of 2025. The Company is still in the process of evaluating the Act and an estimate of the financial impact cannot be made at this time.

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, 2025 and 2024, the Company paid approximately $14.5 million and $13.4 million, respectively, in foreign source creditable withholding tax.

  1. NET INCOME PER SHARE

Basic Earnings Per Share ("EPS") is calculated by dividing net income or loss available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if options or other securities with features that could result in the issuance of common stock were exercised or converted to common stock or resulting from the unvested outstanding restricted stock units ("RSUs"). The following tables reconcile the numerator and the denominator of the basic and diluted net income per share computation (in thousands, except for per share data):

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. Set forth below are the securities and the weighted average number of shares of common stock underlying such securities that were excluded from our computation of EPS for the periods presented (in thousands):

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.

  1. SEGMENT PERFORMANCE MEASURES AND EXPENSES

Our chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), who is our Chief Executive Officer, assesses company-wide performance and allocates resources based on consolidated financial information. Consequently, we view the entire organization asone 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):

  1. OTHER INCOME, NET

The amounts included in "Other income, net" in the condensed consolidated statements of income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 were as follows (in thousands):

Three Months Ended June 30,Six Months Ended June 30,
2025202420252024
Interest and investment income$8,828$10,125$18,092$21,903
Other6,3161,5577,310(974)
Other income, net$15,144$11,682$25,402$20,929

The change in Other was primarily due to a foreign currency translation net gains arising from translation of our foreign subsidiaries of $3.6 million and $5.8 million in the three and six months ending June 30, 2025, respectively, compared to losses of $0.9 million and $3.3 million in the three and six months ending June 30, 2024, respectively.
