InterDigital Reports Record Annualized Recurring Revenue and Raises Full-Year 2026 Guidance
InterDigital (IDCC) delivered strong third-quarter 2026 financial results, characterized by a 17% increase in total revenue to $193.4 million. The growth was primarily driven by a new licensing agreement with a major PC manufacturer and significant expansion in the Consumer Electronics, IoT, and Auto sectors, which nearly doubled year-over-year. Annualized Recurring Revenue reached an all-time high of $628.9 million. Despite a 10% decline in smartphone revenue, the company's profitability improved significantly, with Adjusted EBITDA rising 25% to $131.3 million and Non-GAAP EPS of $3.11 exceeding previous guidance. Management raised its full-year 2026 revenue and EPS outlook, citing strong existing contracts. The company also continues to see success in patent enforcement, reporting recent injunctions against TCL in Brazil and multiple wins against Disney in European courts.
