By Mill Chart

Last update: Jul 31, 2025

InterDigital Inc (NASDAQ:IDCC) reported second-quarter earnings that significantly surpassed analyst expectations, driving a strong pre-market reaction. The company’s performance was buoyed by a favorable Samsung arbitration decision and a new licensing agreement with HP, contributing to record annualized recurring revenue.

Key Financial Highlights vs. Estimates

  • Revenue: Reported revenue for Q2 2025 came in at $300.6 million, far exceeding the consensus estimate of $173.4 million. This represents a 73.4% beat versus expectations.
  • Earnings Per Share (EPS): The company posted $6.52 in EPS, crushing the estimated $2.80, marking a 133% beat.
  • Annualized Recurring Revenue (ARR): Reached an all-time high of $553 million, up 44% year-over-year, reflecting strong licensing momentum.

Market Reaction

The stock surged 7.47% in pre-market trading, indicating strong investor approval of the results. Over the past month, shares had already gained 10.5%, suggesting growing optimism ahead of the earnings release. The substantial revenue and EPS outperformance likely reinforced confidence in the company’s growth trajectory.

Full-Year and Q3 Outlook vs. Analyst Estimates

InterDigital raised its full-year 2025 revenue guidance by $110 million, signaling continued strength in licensing deals. Analysts had projected $717.3 million in full-year sales, but the company’s upward revision suggests it may surpass these expectations. For Q3 2025, analysts currently estimate $152.7 million in revenue and $1.38 in EPS—figures that may now be viewed as conservative given InterDigital’s recent execution.

Press Release Takeaways
