NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

September 30, 2019

(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 September 30, 2019, and the results of our operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 and our cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018. The accompanying unaudited, condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions for 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, 2018 (our “2018 Form 10-K”) as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 21, 2019. Definitions of capitalized terms not defined herein appear within our 2018 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 revenues 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 2018 Form 10-K, except as indicated in Note 2, "Leases".

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year amounts to conform to the current year presentation.

Prior Periods Financial Statement Revision

In connection with the preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements for first quarter 2019, it was identified that we incorrectly attributed tax benefit to the net loss attributable to noncontrolling interest in our presentation of noncontrolling interest.

We assessed the materiality of this misstatement on prior periods’ financial statements in accordance with ASC Topic 250, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections, (“ASC 250”) and concluded it was not material to any prior annual or interim periods. In accordance with ASC 250, we have corrected our presentation of noncontrolling interest for all prior periods presented in this Form 10-Q by revising the condensed consolidated financial statements and other consolidated financial information included herein. We will continue to present the prior periods on this revised basis to the extent we present such prior periods in future filings. Refer to Note 12, "Revision to Noncontrolling Interest" for additional information on the revision.

Supplemental Cash Flow Information

The following table presents additional supplemental cash flow information for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 (in thousands):

New Accounting Guidance

Accounting Standards Update: Leases

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, "Leases (Topic 842)" or ("ASC 842"), which outlines a comprehensive change to the lease accounting model and supersedes prior lease guidance. Refer to Note 2, "Leases," for information regarding our adoption of this guidance effective January 1, 2019 and a discussion of the impact to information presented herein, as well as additional required disclosures under the new guidance.

Accounting Standards Update: Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting

In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-07, "Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting," which is intended to reduce cost and complexity and to improve financial reporting for share-based payments issued to nonemployees. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 and early adoption is permitted. We adopted this guidance in first quarter 2019 and it did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Accounting Standards Update: Financial Instruments - Credit Losses

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, "Financial Instruments - Credit Losses". This ASU introduces a new accounting model for recognizing credit losses on certain financial instruments and financial assets, including trade receivables, based upon an estimate of current expected credit losses, otherwise known as CECL. The new guidance requires the recognition of an allowance that reflects the current estimate of credit losses expected to be incurred over the life of the financial asset, based not only on historical experience and current conditions, but also on reasonable forecasts. Additionally, ASU No. 2016-13 made several changes to the available-for-sale impairment model. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years, and early adoption is permitted. While we are still completing our accounting assessment, we do not expect this guidance to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Accounting Standards Update: Cloud Computing Arrangements

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-15 “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other – Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement that is a Service Contract”. The amendments in this ASU align the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years, and early adoption is permitted. While we are still completing our accounting assessment, we do not expect this guidance to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Accounting Standards Update: Collaborative Arrangements

In November 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-18, "Collaborative Arrangements (Topic 808): Clarifying the Interaction Between Topic 808 and Topic 606". The amendments in this ASU provide guidance on how to assess whether certain transactions between collaborative arrangement participants should be accounted for within the revenue recognition standard. The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years, and early adoption is permitted for entities who have previously adopted the new revenue recognition guidance. While we are still completing our accounting assessment, we do not expect this guidance to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

2. LEASES

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASC 842, which outlines a comprehensive change to the lease accounting model

Table of Contents

and supersedes prior lease guidance ("ASC 840"). The new guidance requires lessees to recognize lease liabilities and corresponding right-of-use assets for all leases with lease terms of greater than 12 months, and also changes the definition of a lease and expands the disclosure requirements of lease arrangements.

The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2019 using the modified retrospective transition effective date method. As part of that adoption, we have elected the package of three practical expedients, which includes the following: an entity may elect not to reassess whether expired or existing contracts contain a lease under the revised definition of a lease; an entity may elect not to reassess the lease classification for expired or existing leases; and an entity may elect not to reassess whether previously capitalized initial direct costs would qualify for capitalization. The Company has elected not to utilize the hindsight expedient in determining the lease term, and to not record leases with an initial term of 12 months or less on our balance sheet. Additionally, the Company has elected to account for lease components and non-lease components as a single lease component for all asset classes. Lease expense is recognized over the expected term on a straight-line basis. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company's condensed consolidated statements of income or cash flows.

The Company enters into operating leases primarily for real estate to support research and development ("R&D") sites and general office space in North America, with additional locations in Europe and Asia. The Company does not currently have any finance leases. Certain of our leases include options to extend the lease at our discretion at the end of the lease term, or terminate the lease early subject to certain conditions and penalties. We do not include any renewal options in our lease terms for calculating our lease liabilities, as the renewal options allow us to maintain operational flexibility and we are not reasonably certain we will exercise these options.

At the inception of an arrangement, the Company determines whether the arrangement is or contains a lease based on the specific facts and circumstances present. Operating lease liabilities and their corresponding right-of-use assets are recorded based on the present value of lease payments over the expected lease term. The interest rate implicit in lease contracts is typically not readily determinable, and, as such, the Company utilizes its incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate based on information available on the lease commencement date. Our incremental borrowing rate represents the rate we would incur to borrow on a collateralized basis over a similar term for an amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment. We utilized the incremental borrowing rate as of January 1, 2019, our adoption date, for operating leases that commenced prior to that date. Upon our adoption of ASU 2016-02, the Company recorded the following operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities as of January 1, 2019. Additionally, the table below includes the balances of operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities as of September 30, 2019 (in thousands):



	Balance Sheet Classification	January 1, 2019		September 30, 2019

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, sublease income was insignificant. Cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of operating lease liabilities for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 was $1.4 million and $3.8 million, respectively, and was included in net cash provided by operating activities in our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. Operating lease right-of-use assets obtained in exchange for operating lease obligations

During first nine months 2019, we recognized $120.3 million of revenue that had been included in deferred revenue as of the beginning of the period. As of September 30, 2019, we had contract assets of $14.4 million and $1.3 million included within accounts receivable and other non-current assets, respectively. As of December 31, 2018, we had contract assets of $19.7 million and $5.5 million included within accounts receivable and other non-current assets, respectively.

4. INCOME TAXES

In first nine months 2019, based on the statutory federal tax rate net of discrete federal and state taxes, we had an effective tax rate of 50.1%. The effective tax rate for first nine months 2019 was impacted by losses in certain jurisdictions where the Company presently has recorded a valuation allowance against the related tax benefit. Excluding this valuation allowance, our first nine months 2019 effective tax rate would have been a benefit of 25.3%. In first nine months 2019, the Company recorded net discrete tax expenses of $3.1 million related to the acquisition of the Research & Innovation ("R&I")

Table of Contents

unit of Technicolor SA, the extinguishment of long-term debt, the filing of amended federal income tax returns and the sale of our Hillcrest Laboratories, Inc. ("Hillcrest") product business. Refer to Note 7, "Business Combinations and Other Transactions" and Note 9, "Long-Term Debt" for further discussion of these transactions. This is compared to an effective tax rate benefit of 74.4% based on the statutory federal tax rate net of discrete federal and state taxes during first nine months 2018. During first nine months 2018, we recorded discrete net benefits of $18.4 million related to share-based compensation, our sale of a commercial initiative and a benefit from the anticipated filing by the Company of amended tax returns in connection with the Competent Authority Proceeding (as defined in our 2018 Form 10-K). Excluding these discrete benefits, the effective tax rate would have been a benefit of 19.7%.

On December 22, 2017, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (the "Tax Reform Act") was signed into law. The Tax Reform Act imposes a 13.125% tax rate on income that qualifies as Foreign Derived Intangible Income ("FDII"). The reduction in benefit is primarily related to the differences in our FDII deduction between the periods. The difference in the FDII deduction between the periods was driven by the timing of income between book and tax mostly related to revenue recognition. On March 6, 2019, the IRS issued proposed regulations for FDII. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the proposed regulations and will record the impact, if any, as applicable.

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. The Company further notes that its tax positions could be altered by pending IRS regulations that could clarify certain provisions of the Tax Reform Act.

During first nine months 2019 and 2018, we paid approximately $11.5 million and $16.5 million, respectively, of foreign source withholding tax. Additionally, as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, we included approximately $0.2 million and $1.5 million, respectively, of foreign source withholding tax within our taxes payable and deferred tax asset balances. These amounts are related to receivables from foreign licensees.

5. NET INCOME (LOSS) 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. The following tables reconcile the numerator and the denominator of the basic and diluted net income (loss) 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).



	Three months ended September 30,		Nine months ended September 30,

Convertible Notes and Warrants

Refer to Note 9, "Long-Term Debt," 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 our 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 treasury stock 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.

6. LITIGATION AND LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

COURT PROCEEDINGS

Huawei China

On January 3, 2019, InterDigital was notified that a civil complaint was filed on January 2, 2019, by Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. and certain of its subsidiaries against InterDigital, Inc. and certain of its subsidiaries in the Shenzhen Intermediate People’s Court. The complaint seeks a ruling that the InterDigital defendants have violated an obligation to license their patents that are essential to 3G, 4G and 5G wireless telecommunication standards on fair, reasonable and non-discriminatory (“FRAND”) terms and conditions. The complaint also seeks a determination of the terms for licensing all of the InterDigital defendants’ Chinese patents that are essential to 3G, 4G and 5G wireless telecommunication standards to the Huawei plaintiffs for the plaintiffs’ wireless terminal unit products made and/or sold in China from 2019 to 2023. On September 17, 2019, InterDigital filed a petition challenging the jurisdiction of the Shenzhen Intermediate People’s Court to hear the action. The court's decision regarding InterDigital's jurisdictional challenge is pending. InterDigital’s patent license agreement with Huawei expired on December 31, 2018.

Lenovo

U.K. Proceedings

On August 27, 2019, InterDigital, Inc., and its wholly owned subsidiaries InterDigital Holdings, Inc., InterDigital Technology Corporation, and InterDigital Patent Holdings, Inc., filed a claim in the High Court of Justice, Business and Property Courts, Intellectual Property List (Chancery Division), Patents Court of England and Wales (the “High Court”), against Lenovo Group Limited, Lenovo (United States) Inc., Lenovo Technology (United Kingdom) Limited, Motorola Mobility LLC, and Motorola Mobility UK Limited (Claim No. HP-2019-000032). The claim alleges infringement of four of InterDigital’s patents relating to 3G and/or 4G/LTE standards: European Patent (U.K.) Nos. 2,363,008; 2,421,318; 2,485,558; and 2,557,714.

In these proceedings, InterDigital is seeking a “FRAND injunction” of the type previously awarded by the High Court in Unwired Planet v. Huawei, preventing further infringement of InterDigital’s standards-essential patents where the court has settled the terms of a worldwide FRAND license and the defendant does not enter into a license on those terms, along with other relief concerning declarations, damages and costs.

On October 3, 2019, Lenovo filed an application challenging the jurisdiction of the High Court to hear the action, as well as the order which permitted service outside of the United Kingdom with respect to the U.S. and Hong Kong defendants. The High Court's decision regarding these challenges is pending.

District of Delaware Proceedings

On August 28, 2019, InterDigital, Inc., and its wholly owned subsidiaries InterDigital Technology Corporation, IPR Licensing, Inc., InterDigital Communications, Inc., and InterDigital Holdings, Inc., filed a complaint in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware against Lenovo Holding Company, Inc., Lenovo (United States) Inc., and Motorola Mobility LLC, alleging that Lenovo infringes eight of InterDigital’s U.S. patents—U.S. Patent Nos. 8,085,665; 8,199,726; 8,427,954; 8,619,747; 8,675,612; 8,797,873; 9,203,580; and 9,456,449—by making, using, offering for sale, and/or selling Lenovo wireless devices with 3G and/or 4G LTE capabilities. As relief, InterDigital is seeking: (a) a declaration that InterDigital is not in breach of its relevant FRAND commitments with respect to Lenovo; (b) to the extent Lenovo does not agree to negotiate a worldwide patent license, does not agree to enter into binding international arbitration to set the terms of a FRAND license, and does not agree to be bound by the FRAND terms to be set by the High Court in the separately filed U.K. Proceedings (described above), an injunction prohibiting Lenovo from continued infringement; (c) damages, including enhanced damages for willful infringement and supplemental damages; and (d) attorneys’ fees and costs.

ZTE USITC Proceedings and Related Delaware District Court Proceedings

Information regarding legal proceedings that InterDigital filed against ZTE Corporation and ZTE (USA) Inc. (collectively, "ZTE") with the United States International Trade Commission ("USITC") and the Delaware District Court can be found in the description of legal proceedings contained in InterDigital's 2018 Form 10-K. With respect to the Delaware District Court proceeding related to the 2013 USITC Proceeding (337-TA-868), on January 23, 2019, InterDigital and ZTE filed a joint status report that informed the Delaware District Court of the Federal Circuit's decision regarding the '966 and '847 patents and that the PTAB proceedings regarding the '244 patent remained pending. The parties jointly requested that the case remain stayed so that the portion of the case related to damages potentially owed by ZTE as to the three patents-in-suit could be coordinated. The court granted that request on January 25, 2019.

On October 18, 2019, InterDigital and ZTE entered into a Patent License Agreement pursuant to which the parties agreed that, upon the performance of certain obligations by ZTE, the parties will end all legal proceedings initiated by either party or otherwise pending between them. On October 25, 2019, ZTE filed an unopposed motion with the Federal Circuit to withdraw from the '244 patent PTAB remand appeal. InterDigital further expects that ZTE will withdraw from any other proceedings related to the Inter Parties Review of the '244 patent, though InterDigital has retained the right to continue to participate in such proceedings, including any remand or appeals. InterDigital expects that the Delaware District Court proceedings related to the 2011 USITC Proceeding (337-TA-800) and 2013 USITC Proceeding (337-TA-868) will be dismissed with prejudice by January 2020.

REGULATORY PROCEEDING

Investigation by National Development and Reform Commission of China (now State Administration for Market Regulation)

Table of Contents

On September 23, 2013, counsel for InterDigital was informed by China’s National Development and Reform Commission (“NDRC”) that the NDRC had initiated a formal investigation into whether InterDigital has violated China’s Anti-Monopoly Law (“AML”) with respect to practices related to the licensing of InterDigital’s standards-essential patents to Chinese companies. Companies found to violate the AML may be subject to a cease and desist order, fines and disgorgement of any illegal gains. On March 3, 2014, the Company submitted to NDRC, pursuant to a procedure set out in the AML, a formal application for suspension of the investigation that included proposed commitments by the Company. On May 22, 2014, NDRC formally suspended its investigation of the Company based on the commitments proposed by the Company. The Company’s commitments with respect to the licensing of its patent portfolio for wireless mobile standards to Chinese manufacturers of cellular terminal units (“Chinese Manufacturers”) are as follows:

Whenever InterDigital engages with a Chinese Manufacturer to license InterDigital’s patent portfolio for 2G, 3G and 4G wireless mobile standards, InterDigital will offer such Chinese Manufacturer the option of taking a worldwide portfolio license of only its standards-essential wireless patents, and comply with F/RAND principles when negotiating and entering into such licensing agreements with Chinese Manufacturers.


2.	As part of its licensing offer, InterDigital will not require that a Chinese Manufacturer agree to a royalty-free, reciprocal cross-license of such Chinese Manufacturer's similarly categorized standards-essential wireless patents.

Prior to commencing any action against a Chinese Manufacturer in which InterDigital may seek exclusionary or injunctive relief for the infringement of any of its wireless standards-essential patents, InterDigital will offer such Chinese Manufacturer the option to enter into expedited binding arbitration under fair and reasonable procedures to resolve the royalty rate and other terms of a worldwide license under InterDigital's wireless standards-essential patents. If the Chinese Manufacturer accepts InterDigital's binding arbitration offer or otherwise enters into an agreement with InterDigital on a binding arbitration mechanism, InterDigital will, in accordance with the terms of the arbitration agreement and patent license agreement, refrain from seeking exclusionary or injunctive relief against such company.

The commitments contained in item 3 above expired on May 22, 2019. With the consolidation of China’s anti-monopoly enforcement authorities into the State Administration for Market Regulation (“SAMR”) in April 2018, SAMR is now responsible for overseeing InterDigital’s commitments.

OTHER

We are party to certain other disputes and legal actions in the ordinary course of business, including arbitrations and legal proceedings with licensees regarding the terms of their agreements and the negotiation thereof. We do not currently believe that these matters, even if adversely adjudicated or settled, 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 September 30, 2019.

7. BUSINESS COMBINATIONS AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS

Acquisition of Technicolor's Patent Licensing Business

On July 30, 2018, we completed our acquisition of the patent licensing business of Technicolor, a worldwide technology leader in the media and entertainment sector (the "Technicolor Acquisition"). The Technicolor Acquisition included the acquisition by InterDigital of approximately 18,000 patents and applications, across a broad range of technologies, including approximately 3,000 worldwide video coding patents and applications. Refer to our 2018 Form 10-K for further information on the Technicolor Acquisition.

The Technicolor Acquisition met the definition of a business combination, and as such was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting. We allocated the fair value of consideration transferred to identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values as of the acquisition date. We recorded the excess of the fair value of consideration transferred over the net values of these assets and liabilities as goodwill.

The amount of revenue and earnings that would have been included in the Company’s condensed consolidated statement of income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 had the acquisition date been January 1, 2017 are reflected in the table below. These amounts have been calculated after applying the Company's accounting policies and adjusting the results to reflect additional interest expense as well as amortization that would have been charged assuming the fair value adjustments to amortizable intangible assets had been recorded as of January 1, 2017. In addition, pro forma adjustments have been made to reflect the impact of the transaction-related costs discussed below. These unaudited pro forma

combined results of operations have been prepared for comparative purposes only, and they do not purport to be indicative of the results of operations that actually would have resulted had the acquisition occurred on the date indicated, or that may result in the future. The amounts in the table are unaudited (in thousands, except for per share data):



	Three Months Ended		Nine Months Ended

Supplemental pro forma earnings	22,884		55,314
Actual diluted earnings per share	0.61		1.77
Supplemental pro forma diluted earnings per share	0.64		1.55

Acquisition of Technicolor's Research & Innovation Unit

On May 31, 2019, we completed the acquisition of the Research & Innovation, or R&I, unit of Technicolor SA. The acquisition brought the Company’s research team to approximately 340 engineers in eight R&D offices worldwide, and expanded the Company’s research capabilities in video coding, Internet of Things ("IoT") and smart home, imaging sciences, augmented reality and virtual reality, and artificial intelligence and machine learning technologies. The R&I unit was the driving creative force behind the patent portfolio that was acquired in the Technicolor Acquisition discussed above.

The acquisition of the R&I unit met the definition of an asset acquisition and was accounted for using the cost accumulation and allocation model. There was no cash consideration for the acquisition. As consideration for the acquisition, the jointly funded R&D collaboration that was entered into as part of the Technicolor Acquisition was terminated. Technicolor will continue to fund research to be performed by the R&I unit for certain limited projects for a specified time period, subject to renewal. The Company also assumed certain employee-related liabilities, including obligations for certain defined benefit post-retirement plans for the acquired R&I unit employees, which are further discussed below. Additionally, Technicolor agreed to reduce its rights under the revenue-sharing arrangement entered into as part of the Technicolor Acquisition, as further discussed below.

The acquisition of the R&I unit resulted in a net gain of approximately $14.2 million in second quarter 2019, inclusive of the $20.5 million gain from the derecognition of the contingent consideration liability described below, all of which is included within “Other Income (Expense), Net” in the condensed consolidated statement of income.

Contingent Consideration

The original revenue-sharing arrangement between the Company and Technicolor created a contingent consideration liability upon closing of the Technicolor Acquisition in third quarter 2018. Refer to our 2018 Form 10-K for further information on the initial contingent consideration liability which was accounted for at fair value each reporting period.

Under the amended revenue-sharing arrangement described above, Technicolor will now receive 42.5% of future cash receipts from new licensing efforts from the Madison Arrangement (as defined below) only, subject to certain conditions and hurdles, but will no longer receive revenue-sharing from other licensing efforts in the consumer electronics field outside of the Madison Arrangement. We determined that the initial contingent consideration liability from the Technicolor Acquisition was significantly modified in conjunction with the acquisition of the R&I unit, and, as such, the contingent consideration liability will now be accounted for under ASC 450 - Contingencies under the asset acquisition framework when the liability is deemed probable and estimable. Since the contingent consideration liability arising from the amended revenue-sharing arrangement was not probable and estimable as of the acquisition date, the carrying value of the previous contingent consideration liability was derecognized, which resulted in a $20.5 million gain during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and is included within "Other Income (Expense), Net" in the condensed consolidated statement of income.

Defined Benefit Plans

In connection with the Technicolor Acquisition and the acquisition of the R&I unit, we assumed certain defined benefit plans which are accounted for in accordance with ASC 715 - Compensation - Retirement Benefits. These plans include a retirement lump sum indemnity plan and jubilee plan, both of which provide benefit payments to employees based upon years of service and compensation levels. As of September 30, 2019, the combined accumulated projected benefit obligation related

to these plans totaled $6.5 million. Service cost and interest cost for the combined plans totaled $0.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. These plans are not required to be funded and were not funded as of September 30, 2019.

Madison Arrangement

In conjunction with the Technicolor Acquisition, effective July 30, 2018, we assumed Technicolor’s rights and obligations under a joint licensing program with Sony Corporation (“Sony”) relating to digital televisions and standalone computer display monitors, which commenced in 2015 and is referred to as the "Madison Arrangement." We also assumed Technicolor's role as sole licensing agent for the Madison Arrangement. As licensing agent, we are responsible for making decisions regarding the prosecution and maintenance of the combined patent portfolio and the licensing and enforcement of the combined patent portfolio in the field of use of digital TVs and computer display monitors on an exclusive basis during the specified term in exchange for an agent fee. The Madison Arrangement falls under the scope of ASC 808, Collaborative Arrangements (“ASC 808”). Refer to our 2018 Form 10-K for further information on the Madison Arrangement.

Long-term debt

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 has made certain payments to Technicolor and Sony and has agreed to contribute cash to fund certain capital reserve obligations under the arrangement in exchange for a percentage of future revenues, 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 September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 is disclosed within Note 8. Our repayment obligations are contingent upon future royalty revenues 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 nine months ended September 30, 2019, we recognized $0.7 million and $2.0 million, respectively, of interest expense related to this debt, which 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.

Restricted cash

Under the Madison Arrangement, the parties reserve cash in bank accounts to fund our activities to manage the portfolios. These accounts are custodial accounts for which the funds are restricted for this purpose. Refer to Note 8, "Cash, Concentration of Credit Risk and Fair Value of Financial Instruments," for a reconciliation of total cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 to the captions within the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Commitments

To receive consent from both Sony and CPPIB Credit to assume the rights and responsibilities of Technicolor under the Madison Arrangement, we committed to contributing cash to fund shortfalls in the Madison Arrangement, up to a maximum of $25.0 million, through 2020. A shortfall funding is only required in the scenario where the restricted cash is not sufficient to fund current obligations. In the event that we fund a shortfall, any surplus cash resulting from subsequent royalty receipts would be used to repay our shortfall funding plus 25% interest in advance of distributions of royalties to either Sony or CPPIB Credit, assuming they have not participated in the funding of the shortfall. As of September 30, 2019, we have not contributed any shortfall funding.

Transaction costs

Transaction and integration related costs related to the above transactions for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 were $2.1 million and $5.4 million, respectively. Transaction and integration related costs related to the above transactions for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 were $6.9 million and $9.2 million, respectively. The majority of these costs were recorded within “Patent administration and licensing” and “Selling, general and administrative” expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of income.

Sale of Business

On July 19, 2019, we completed the sale of our Hillcrest product business to a subsidiary of CEVA, Inc. In connection with the sale, we received initial proceeds of $10.0 million, with a customary portion of the purchase price placed in escrow to secure potential indemnification claims. As part of the transaction, we retained substantially all of the Hillcrest patent assets that we acquired in 2016. As a result of this transaction, we recorded an $8.5 million gain on sale which is included within “Other Income (Expense), Net” in the condensed consolidated statements of income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019.

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. As of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, four and five licensees, respectively, comprised 54% and 76% of our net accounts receivable balance, 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.

Table of Contents

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 September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 (in thousands):

Level 3 Fair Value Measurements

Contingent consideration

As discussed in Note 7, "Business Combinations and Other Transactions," we completed the Technicolor Acquisition during third quarter 2018. In conjunction with the Technicolor Acquisition, we initially recognized a contingent consideration liability which was measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs classified as Level 3 measurements within the fair value hierarchy. We utilized a Monte Carlo simulation model to determine the estimated fair value of the contingent consideration liability through first quarter 2019. A Monte Carlo simulation uses random numbers together with volatility assumptions to generate individual paths, or trials, for variables of interest governed by a Geometric Brownian Motion in a risk-neutral framework.

During second quarter 2019, we completed the acquisition of the R&I unit of Technicolor SA. The transaction met the definition of an asset acquisition and was accounted for using the cost accumulation and allocation model. As discussed in Note 7, "Business Combinations and Other Transactions," as part of this acquisition, Technicolor reduced its rights to the

Table of Contents

revenue-sharing arrangement that created the initial contingent consideration liability from the Technicolor Acquisition. We determined that the initial contingent consideration liability from the Technicolor Acquisition was significantly modified in conjunction with the acquisition of the R&I unit, and, as such, the contingent consideration liability will now be accounted for under ASC 450 - Contingencies under the asset acquisition framework when the liability is deemed probable and estimable. Since the contingent consideration liability arising from the amended revenue-sharing arrangement was not probable and estimable as of the acquisition date, the carrying value of the previous contingent consideration liability was derecognized, which resulted in a $20.5 million gain which was included within "Other Income (Expense), Net” in the condensed consolidated statement of income for second quarter 2019. Therefore, effective as of the acquisition date of May 31, 2019, the contingent consideration liability was no longer a Level 3 fair value recurring measurement.

The following table provides a reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances of our Level 3 fair value measurements from December 31, 2018 to September 30, 2019, which includes the contingent consideration liability resulting from the Technicolor Acquisition discussed further above. The Level 3 contingent consideration liability was historically included within "Other long-term liabilities" in the condensed consolidated balance sheet prior to its derecognition in second quarter 2019.

Non-Recurring Fair Value Measurements

Investments in Other Entities

From time to time, we may make strategic investments in companies that have developed or are developing technologies that are complementary to our business. As disclosed in our 2018 Form 10-K, in conjunction with our adoption of ASU No. 2016-01, we made an accounting policy election for a measurement alternative for our equity investments that do not have readily determinable fair values, specifically related to our strategic investments in other entities. Under the alternative, our strategic investments in other entities without readily determinable fair values are measured at cost, less any impairment, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for an identical or similar investment of the same issuer, if any. Adjustments to the carrying value of those investments are considered non-recurring fair value measurements.

During third quarter 2019, we recognized a $3.3 million loss resulting from the partial impairment of one of our long-term strategic investments, which was included within “Other Income (Expense), Net” in the condensed consolidated statement of income.

2024 Senior Convertible Notes, and Related Note Hedge and Warrant Transactions

On June 3, 2019 we issued $400.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 2.00% Senior Convertible Notes due 2024 (the "2024 Notes"). The net proceeds from the issuance of the 2024 Notes, after deducting the initial purchasers' transaction fees and offering expenses, were approximately $391.6 million. The 2024 Notes bear 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 mature on June 1, 2024, unless earlier converted or repurchased.

The 2024 Notes will be convertible into cash, shares of our common stock or a combination thereof, at our election, at an initial conversion rate of 12.3018 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of 2024 Notes (which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $81.29 per share), as adjusted pursuant to the terms of the indenture governing the 2024 Notes (the "Indenture"). The conversion rate of the 2024 Notes, and thus the conversion price, may be adjusted in certain circumstances, including in connection with a conversion of the 2024 Notes made following certain fundamental changes and under other circumstances set forth in the Indenture. It is our current intent and policy to settle all conversions of the 2024 Notes through combination settlements of cash and shares of common stock, with a specified dollar amount of $1,000 per $1,000 principal amount of 2024 Notes and any remaining amounts in shares of common stock.

Prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the business day immediately preceding March 1, 2024, the 2024 Notes will be convertible only under certain circumstances as set forth in the Indenture, including on any date during any calendar quarter (and only during such calendar quarter) beginning after September 30, 2019 if the closing sale price of the common stock was more than 130% of the applicable conversion price (approximately $105.68 based on the current conversion price of the 2024 Notes) on each applicable trading day for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) in the period of the 30 consecutive trading days ending on the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter.

Commencing on March 1, 2024, the 2024 Notes will be convertible at any time prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date of the 2024 Notes.

The Company may not redeem the 2024 Notes prior to their maturity date.

If a fundamental change (as defined in the Indenture) occurs, holders may require the Company to purchase all or a portion of their 2024 Notes for cash at a repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2024 Notes to be repurchased, plus any accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the fundamental change repurchase date. The 2024 Notes are our senior unsecured obligations and rank equally in right of payment with any of our current and any future senior unsecured indebtedness, including our 1.50% senior convertible notes due 2020 (the “2020 Notes”) discussed below. The 2024 Notes are effectively subordinated to all of our future secured indebtedness to the extent of the value of the related collateral, and the 2024 Notes are structurally subordinated to indebtedness and other liabilities, including trade payables, of our subsidiaries.

On May 29 and May 31, 2019, in connection with the offering of the 2024 Notes, we entered into convertible note hedge transactions (collectively, the “2024 Note Hedge Transactions”) that cover, subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments, approximately 4.9 million shares of common stock, in the aggregate, at a strike price that initially corresponds to the initial conversion price of the 2024 Notes, subject to adjustment, and are exercisable upon any conversion of the 2024 Notes. The aggregate cost of the 2024 Note Hedge Transactions was $72.0 million.

On May 29 and May 31, 2019, 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. As consideration for the 2024 Warrant Transactions, we received aggregate proceeds of $47.6 million. The net cost of the 2024 Call Spread Transactions was $24.4 million.

The net proceeds from the issuance of the 2024 Notes, after deducting fees and offering expenses, were used for the following: (i) $232.7 million was used to repurchase $221.1 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2020 Notes (as defined below) in privately negotiated transactions concurrently with the offering of the 2024 Notes (ii) $19.6 million was used to repurchase shares of common stock at $62.53 per share, the closing price of the stock on May 29, 2019; and (iii) $24.4

Table of Contents

million, in addition to the proceeds from the 2024 Warrant Transactions discussed above, was used to fund the cost of the 2024 Call Spread Transactions.

Accounting Treatment of the 2024 Notes and Related Convertible Note Hedge and Warrant Transactions

The 2024 Call Spread Transactions were classified as equity. The Company bifurcated the proceeds from the offering of the 2024 Notes between liability and equity components. On the date of issuance, the liability and equity components were calculated to be approximately $328.0 million and $72.0 million, respectively. The initial $328.0 million liability component was determined based on the fair value of similar debt instruments excluding the conversion feature. The initial $72.0 million ($56.9 million net of tax) equity component represents the difference between the fair value of the initial $328.0 million in debt and the $400.0 million gross proceeds. The related initial debt discount of $72.0 million is being amortized over the life of the 2024 Notes using the effective interest method. An effective interest rate of 6.25% was used to calculate the debt discount on the 2024 Notes.

In connection with the above-noted transactions, the Company incurred approximately $8.4 million of directly related costs. The initial purchasers' transaction fees and related offering expenses were allocated to the liability and equity components in proportion to the allocation of proceeds and accounted for as debt and equity issuance costs, respectively. We allocated $6.4 million of debt issuance costs to the liability component, which were capitalized as deferred financing costs. These costs are being amortized as interest expense over the term of the debt using the effective interest method. The remaining $1.9 million of costs ($1.6 million net of tax) allocated to the equity component were recorded as a reduction of the equity component.

2020 Senior Convertible Notes, and Related Note Hedge and Warrant Transactions

On March 11, 2015, we issued $316.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 1.50% Senior Convertible Notes due 2020, referred to as the 2020 Notes. The 2020 Notes bear interest at a rate of 1.50% per year, payable in cash on March 1 and September 1 of each year, which commenced September 1, 2015, and mature on March 1, 2020, unless earlier converted or repurchased. In connection with the initial offering of the 2020 Notes, on March 5 and March 9, 2015, we entered into convertible note hedge transactions (the “2020 Note Hedge Transactions”) that initially covered approximately 4.4 million shares of common stock at a strike price that initially corresponded to the initial conversion price of the 2020 Notes and are exercisable upon any conversion of the 2020 Notes. On March 5 and March 9, 2015, we also entered into warrant transactions (collectively, the "2020 Warrant Transactions" and, together with the 2020 Note Hedge Transactions, the "2020 Call Spread Transactions") to initially acquire, subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments, approximately 4.4 million shares of common stock. The warrants become exercisable and expire in daily tranches over a three and a half month period starting in June 2020. Refer to the 2018 Form 10-K for further details on this transaction.

As noted above, during second quarter 2019, the Company used $232.7 million from the offering of the 2024 Notes to repurchase $221.1 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2020 Notes in privately negotiated transactions concurrently with the offering of the 2024 Notes. As a result of the partial repurchase of the 2020 Notes, $94.9 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2020 Notes remain outstanding as of September 30, 2019. Additionally, on May 29, 2019, in connection with the partial repurchase of the 2020 Notes, the Company entered into partial unwind agreements that amend the terms of the 2020 Note Hedge Transactions to reduce the number of options corresponding to the principal amount of the repurchased 2020 Notes. The unwind agreements also reduce the number of warrants exercisable under the 2020 Warrant Transactions. As a result of the partial unwind transactions, approximately 1.3 million shares of common stock in the aggregate were covered under each of the 2020 Note Hedge Transactions and the 2020 Warrant Transactions as of September 30, 2019. As of September 30, 2019, the warrants under the 2020 Warrant Transactions had a strike price of approximately $86.59 per share, as adjusted. Proceeds received from the unwind of the 2020 Note Hedge Transactions were $9.0 million, and consideration paid for the unwind of the 2020 Warrant Transactions was $4.2 million, resulting in net proceeds received of $4.9 million for the combined unwind transactions which was recorded to equity in second quarter 2019.

We recognized a $5.5 million loss on extinguishment of debt during second quarter 2019 in connection with this repurchase, which was included within "Other Income (Expense), Net" in the condensed consolidated statement of income for the period. The loss on extinguishment represents the difference between the calculated fair value of the debt immediately prior to its derecognition and the carrying amount of the debt component, including any unamortized debt discount and issuance costs. The remaining consideration paid for the partial repurchase of the 2020 Notes was allocated to the reacquisition of the equity component, which equaled $13.0 million ($10.6 million net of tax) and was recorded as a reduction of equity in second quarter 2019. The remaining unamortized debt discount and issuance costs of $3.3 million will continue to be amortized throughout the remaining life of the 2020 Notes, which are set to mature in March 2020.

The remaining 2020 Notes will be convertible into cash, shares of our common stock or a combination thereof, at our election, at a current conversion rate of 14.1153 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of 2020 Notes as of September 30, 2019 (which is equivalent to a conversion price of approximately $70.85 per share), as adjusted pursuant to the

Table of Contents

terms of the indenture governing the 2020 Notes (the "2020 Notes Indenture"). The conversion rate of the 2020 Notes, and thus the conversion price, may be adjusted in certain circumstances, including in connection with a conversion of the 2020 Notes made following certain fundamental changes and under other circumstances set forth in the 2020 Notes Indenture. It is our current intent and policy to settle all conversions of the 2020 Notes through combination settlements of cash and shares of common stock, with a specified dollar amount of $1,000 per $1,000 principal amount of 2020 Notes and any remaining amounts in shares of common stock.

Prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the business day immediately preceding December 1, 2019, the 2020 Notes will be convertible only under certain circumstances as set forth in the 2020 Notes Indenture, including on any date during any calendar quarter (and only during such calendar quarter) if the closing sale price of our common stock was more than 130% of the applicable conversion price (approximately $92.11 based on the current conversion price of the 2020 Notes) on each applicable trading day for at least 20 trading days in the period of the 30 consecutive trading days ending on the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter.

Commencing on December 1, 2019, the 2020 Notes will be convertible at any time prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date of the 2020 Notes.

The Company may not redeem the 2020 Notes prior to their maturity date.

10. VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES

As further discussed below, we are the primary beneficiary of three variable interest entities. As of September 30, 2019, the combined book values of the assets and liabilities associated with these variable interest entities included in our condensed consolidated balance sheet were $41.3 million and $3.8 million, respectively. Assets included $20.8 million of cash and cash equivalents, $1.5 million of accounts receivable and prepaid assets, $17.7 million of patents, net, and $1.3 million of other non-current assets. As of December 31, 2018, the combined book values of the assets and liabilities associated with these variable interest entities included in our condensed consolidated balance sheet were $29.9 million and $6.1 million, respectively. Assets included $11.7 million of cash and cash equivalents, $1.3 million of accounts receivable, $14.4 million of patents, net, and $2.5 million of other non-current assets.

Chordant

On January 31, 2019, we launched the Company’s Chordant™ business as a standalone company. The spinout of the unit, which now includes an affiliate of Sony as an investor along with the Company, gives Chordant added independence and flexibility in driving into its core operator and smart city markets. Chordant is a variable interest entity and we have determined that we are the primary beneficiary for accounting purposes and will consolidate Chordant. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, we have allocated approximately $0.5 million and $1.2 million, respectively, of Chordant's net loss to noncontrolling interests held by other parties.

Convida Wireless

Convida Wireless was launched in 2013 and most recently renewed in 2018 to combine Sony's consumer electronics expertise with our pioneering IoT expertise to drive IoT communications and connectivity. Based on the terms of the agreement, the parties will contribute funding and resources for additional research and platform development, which we will perform. SCP IP Investment LLC, an affiliate of Stephens Inc., is a minority investor in Convida Wireless.

Convida Wireless is a variable interest entity. Based on our provision of research and platform development services to Convida Wireless, we have determined that we remain the primary beneficiary for accounting purposes and will continue to consolidate Convida Wireless. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, we have allocated approximately $0.9 million and $3.0 million, respectively, of Convida Wireless's net loss to noncontrolling interests held by other parties.

Signal Trust for Wireless Innovation

During 2013, we announced the establishment of the Signal Trust for Wireless Innovation (the “Signal Trust”), the goal of which is to monetize a large InterDigital patent portfolio related to cellular infrastructure.

The more than 500 patents and patent applications transferred from InterDigital to the Signal Trust focus primarily on 3G and LTE technologies, and were developed by InterDigital's engineers and researchers over more than a decade, with a number of the innovations contributing to the worldwide standards process.

InterDigital is the primary beneficiary of the Signal Trust. The distributions from the Signal Trust will support continued research related to cellular wireless technologies. A small portion of the proceeds from the Signal Trust will be used to fund, through the Signal Foundation for Wireless Innovation, scholarly analysis of intellectual property rights and the technological, commercial and creative innovations they facilitate.

The Signal Trust is a variable interest entity. Based on the terms of the trust agreement, we have determined that we are the primary beneficiary for accounting purposes and must consolidate the Signal Trust.

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 2018 Form

Table of Contents

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 Form 10-Q, we refer to “recurring revenues” and “non-recurring revenues.” Recurring revenues are comprised of “current patent royalties” and “current technology solutions revenue.” Non-recurring revenues are comprised of “non-current patent royalties,” which primarily include past patent royalties and royalties from static agreements, as well as “patent sales.”

Business Update

Subsequent to the end of third quarter 2019, we signed two patent license agreements with new customers, including ZTE Corporation. In connection with our go-forward patent license agreement with ZTE we have agreed to terms for dismissal of all outstanding litigation as more fully discussed in Note 6, “Litigation and Legal Proceedings”. The second license, which was also with a handset manufacturer, was obtained through a patent licensing platform that involved a number of licensors.

During third quarter 2019, we filed a patent infringement action in the United Kingdom against Lenovo as more fully discussed in Note 6, “Litigation and Legal Proceedings”.

Recurring Revenue

Third quarter 2019 recurring revenue was $72.1 million compared to $75.0 million in third quarter 2018, with the decrease primarily driven by lower royalties from one of our Taiwanese licensees. The third quarter 2019 results did not include any revenue from the aforementioned new agreements discussed above. Refer to "Results of Operations -- Third Quarter 2019 Compared to Third Quarter 2018" for further discussion of our 2019 revenue.

Hillcrest Sale

New Accounting Guidance

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASC 842, which outlines a comprehensive change to the lease accounting model and supersedes prior lease guidance (ASC 840). The new guidance requires lessees to recognize lease liabilities and corresponding right-of-use assets for all leases with lease terms of greater than 12 months, and also changes the definition of a lease and expands the disclosure requirements of lease arrangements. We adopted this guidance on January 1, 2019 using the modified retrospective transition effective date method, and, upon adoption, reflected $13.6 million of right-of-use assets and $17.2 million of lease liabilities within the condensed consolidated balance sheet. The adoption did not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated statements of income or cash flows.

Share Repurchase Program

During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, we repurchased 2.5 million shares of our common stock for $171.3 million under our existing share repurchase program (the “2014 Repurchase Program”). On May 29, 2019, we announced that our Board of Directors authorized a $100 million increase to the 2014 Repurchase Program. Under the 2014 Repurchase Program, the Board authorized a $300 million stock repurchase program in June 2014, which was increased to $400 million in June 2015, to $500 million in September 2017, and then to $600 million in December 2018. This latest increase brings the total authorization to $700 million. As of September 30, 2019, there was approximately $96.8 million remaining under the 2014 Repurchase Program.

Comparability of Financial Results

When comparing third quarter 2019 financial results against other periods, the following items should be taken into consideration:


•	the Technicolor Acquisition and the acquisition of the R&I unit of Technicolor SA, which closed on July 30, 2018 and May 31, 2019, respectively, contributed $4.2 million to our third quarter 2019 revenue and $15.8 million to our third quarter 2019 operating expenses;


•	The $15.8 million of operating expenses is comprised of $13.7 million of recurring costs, of which $4.2 million relates to patent amortization, and the remaining $2.1 million relates to transaction-related and integration costs; and

Table of Contents


•	third quarter 2019 "Other Income (Expense), Net" includes an $8.5 million gain on sale of our Hillcrest product business, as well as a $3.3 million loss resulting from the partial impairment of one of our strategic long-term investments.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 2 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in our 2018 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 2018 Form 10-K. There have been no material changes to our existing critical accounting policies from the disclosures included in our 2018 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. Based on our past performance and current expectations, we believe our available sources of funds, including cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments and cash generated from our operations, will be sufficient to finance our operations, capital requirements, debt obligations (including the repayment of the remaining $94.9 million of our 2020 Notes), existing stock repurchase program and dividend program for the next twelve months.

Cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and short-term investments

As of September 30, 2019, and December 31, 2018, we had the following amounts of cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and short-term investments (in thousands):



	September 30, 2019		December 31, 2018		Increase / (Decrease)
Cash and cash equivalents	$	735,886	$	475,056	$	260,830
Restricted cash included within prepaid and other current assets	9,229		13,677		(4,448		)
Restricted cash included within other non-current assets	1,080		—		1,080
Short-term investments	211,737		470,724		(258,987		)
Total cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and short-term investments	$	957,932	$	959,457	$	(1,525	)

The net decrease in cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and short-term investments was attributable to cash used in financing activities of $58.7 million, primarily related to share repurchases, dividend payments, and cash payments for payroll taxes upon vesting of restricted stock units, partially offset by net proceeds from the debt refinancing and related expenses and proceeds received from non-controlling interests. Cash used in investing activities of $19.2 million, excluding sales and purchases of short-term investments, primarily related to capital investments for patents and fixed assets, partially offset by proceeds received from the sale of our Hillcrest product business during third quarter 2019. Cash provided by operating activities of $72.0 million partially offset these decreases. Refer to the sections below for further discussion of these items.

Cash flows from operations

We generated (used) the following cash flows in our operating activities in first nine months 2019 and 2018 (in thousands):



	Nine months ended September 30,
	2019		2018		Increase / (Decrease)
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	71,976	$	176,617	$	(104,641	)

Our cash flows provided by operating activities are principally derived from cash receipts from patent license and technology solutions agreements, offset by cash operating expenses and income tax payments. The $104.6 million decrease in net cash provided by operating activities was driven by lower cash receipts in first nine months 2019 as compared to first nine months 2018 related to timing of cash receipts from our dynamic fixed-fee royalty agreements and a timing difference within our working capital accounts in the prior year related to the Competent Authority Proceeding discussed and defined in our 2018

Table of Contents

Form 10-K. The table below sets forth the significant items comprising our cash flows provided by operating activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 (in thousands).



	Nine months ended September 30,
	2019		2018		Increase / (Decrease)
Cash Receipts:
Patent royalties	$	217,284	$	252,783	$	(35,499	)
Technology solutions	5,765		9,306		(3,541		)
Total cash receipts	223,049		262,089		(39,040		)

Cash Outflows:
Cash operating expenses ^a	140,590		121,429		19,161
Income taxes paid ^b	16,483		24,459		(7,976		)
Total cash outflows	157,073		145,888		11,185

Other working capital adjustments	6,000		60,416		(54,416		)

Cash flows provided by operating activities	$	71,976	$	176,617	$	(104,641	)

(a) Cash operating expenses include operating expenses less depreciation of fixed assets, amortization of patents, non-cash compensation and non-cash changes in fair value.

(b) Income taxes paid include foreign withholding taxes.

Working capital

We believe that working capital adjusted to exclude cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and short-term investments and to include current deferred revenue provides additional information about non-cash assets and liabilities that might affect our near-term liquidity. While we believe cash and short-term investments are important measures of our liquidity, the remaining components of our current assets and current liabilities, with the exception of deferred revenue, could affect our near-term liquidity and/or cash flow. We have no material obligations associated with our deferred revenue, and the amortization of deferred revenue has no impact on our future liquidity and/or cash flow. Our adjusted working capital, a non-GAAP financial measure, reconciles to working capital, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 (in thousands), as follows:



	September 30, 2019			December 31, 2018			Increase / (Decrease)
Current assets	$	1,022,523		$	1,024,250		$	(1,727	)
Less: current liabilities	334,299			179,395			154,904
Working capital	688,224			844,855			(156,631		)
Subtract:
Cash and cash equivalents	735,886			475,056			260,830
Restricted cash included in current assets	9,229			13,677			(4,448		)
Short-term investments	211,737			470,724			(258,987		)
Add:
Current deferred revenue	171,433			111,672			59,761
Adjusted working capital	$	(97,195	)	$	(2,930	)	$	(94,265	)

The $94.3 million increase in negative adjusted working capital is primarily attributable to the classification of our remaining outstanding 2020 Notes, which are due March 2020, as a current liability within the September 30, 2019 condensed consolidated balance sheet.

Cash flows from investing and financing activities

Net cash provided by investing activities in first nine months 2019 was $244.2 million, a $247.0 million change from $2.8 million net cash used in investing activities in first nine months 2018. During first nine months 2019, we sold $263.4 million of short-term marketable securities, net of purchases. We also received initial proceeds of $10.0 million related to the sale of our Hillcrest product business, with a customary portion of the purchase price placed in escrow to secure potential indemnification claims. During first nine months 2018, we sold $174.9 million of short-term marketable securities, net of purchases, and applied a substantial portion of the proceeds from our sale of short-term marketable securities toward the $143.0 million, net of cash acquired, paid for the Technicolor Acquisition.

Net cash used in financing activities for first nine months 2019 was $58.7 million, a $23.4 million decrease from net cash used in financing activities of $82.1 million for first nine months 2018. This change was attributable to several offsetting factors. The second quarter 2019 debt refinancing and related expenses resulted in net proceeds of $140.2 million during first nine months 2019. Additionally, proceeds from noncontrolling interests were $10.0 million and there was a $4.2 million decrease in payroll taxes paid upon the vesting of restricted stock units during first nine months 2019 as compared to first nine months 2018. These increases in cash were offset by a $127.8 million increase in repurchases of common stock and a $6.4 million decrease in proceeds received from the exercise of stock options.

Other

Our combined short-term and long-term deferred revenue balance as of September 30, 2019 was approximately $278.9 million, an increase of $9.6 million from December 31, 2018. This increase in deferred revenue was due to cash receipts from our dynamic fixed-fee royalty agreements.

Based on current license agreements, we expect the amortization of dynamic fixed-fee royalty payments to reduce the September 30, 2019 deferred revenue balance of $278.9 million by $171.4 million over the next twelve months.

Convertible Notes

Our 2024 Notes and 2020 Notes, which for purposes of this discussion, we refer to as the combined "Convertible Notes", are included in the dilutive earnings per share calculation using the treasury stock method. Under the treasury stock method, we must calculate the number of shares of common stock issuable under the terms of the Convertible Notes based on the average market price of our common stock during the applicable reporting period and include that number in the total diluted shares figure for the period. At the time we issued the Convertible Notes, we entered into the 2024 Call Spread Transactions and 2020 Call Spread Transactions that together were designed to have the economic effect of reducing the net number of shares that will be issued in the event of conversion of the Convertible Notes by, in effect, increasing the conversion price of the Convertible Notes from our economic standpoint. However, under GAAP, since the impact of the 2024 Note Hedge Transactions and 2020 Note Hedge Transactions (together, the "Note Hedge Transactions") is anti-dilutive, we exclude from the calculation of fully diluted shares the number of shares of our common stock that we would receive from the counterparties to these agreements upon settlement.

During periods in which the average market price of our common stock is above the applicable conversion price of the Convertible Notes ($81.29 per share for the 2024 Notes and $70.85 per share for the 2020 Notes as of September 30, 2019) or above the strike price of the warrants ($109.43 per share for the 2024 Warrant Transactions and $86.59 per share for the 2020 Warrant Transactions as of September 30, 2019), the impact of conversion or exercise, as applicable, would be dilutive and such dilutive effect is reflected in diluted earnings per share. As a result, in periods where the average market price of our common stock is above the conversion price or strike price, as applicable, under the treasury stock method, we calculate 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.

Under the treasury stock 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 fully diluted earnings per share calculation. As described in Note 9, "Long-Term Debt," it is our current intent and policy to settle all conversions of the Convertible Notes through a combination settlement of cash and shares of common stock, with a specified dollar amount of $1,000 per $1,000 principal amount of the Convertible Notes and any remaining amounts in shares ("net share settlement"). Assuming net share settlement upon conversion, the following table illustrates how, based on the $400.0 million aggregate principal amount of the 2024 Notes and the $94.9 million remaining aggregate principal amount of the 2020 Notes as of September 30, 2019, and the approximately 4.9 million warrants related to the 2024 Notes and the 1.3 million remaining warrants related to the 2020 Notes, outstanding as of the same date, changes in our stock price would affect (i) the number of shares issuable upon conversion of the Convertible Notes, (ii) the number of shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants subject to the 2024 Warrant Transactions and 2020 Warrant Transactions (together, the "Warrant Transactions"), (iii) the number of additional shares deemed outstanding with respect to the Convertible Notes, after applying the treasury stock method, for purposes of calculating diluted earnings per share ("Total Treasury Stock Method Incremental Shares"), (iv) the number of shares of common stock deliverable to us upon

Revenues

The following table compares third quarter 2019 revenues to third quarter 2018 revenues (in thousands):



	Three months ended September 30,
	2019			2018		Total Increase/(Decrease)
Variable patent royalty revenue	$	4,683		$	13,645	$	(8,962	)	(66	)%
Fixed-fee royalty revenue	63,736			60,272		3,464			6	%

Patent sales ^b	750			—		750			—	%
Total revenue	$	72,523		$	75,079	$	(2,556	)	(3	)%


a.	Recurring revenues are comprised of current patent royalties, inclusive of Dynamic Fixed-Fee Agreement royalties, and current technology solutions revenue.


b.	Non-recurring revenues are comprised of non-current patent royalties, which primarily include past patent royalties and royalties from static agreements, as well as patent sales.

The $2.6 million decrease in total revenue was primarily driven by lower royalties from a Taiwanese licensee, whose licensing arrangement was restructured in first quarter 2019. As a result of this restructuring, this licensee's revenues are now classified as fixed-fee royalty revenue instead of variable patent royalties and have declined as compared to prior year. These decreases were partially offset by an increase in fixed-fee royalties, primarily resulting from new agreements signed in fourth quarter 2018. Current technology solutions revenue increased $2.7 million due to the inclusion of engineering services revenue related to our on-going relationship with Technicolor.

In third quarter 2019 and third quarter 2018, 77% and 84% of our total revenue, respectively, was attributable to companies that individually accounted for 10% or more of our total revenue. In third quarter 2019 and third quarter 2018, the following companies accounted for 10% or more of our total revenue:



	Three months ended September 30,

Operating Expenses

The following table summarizes the changes in operating expenses between third quarter 2019 and third quarter 2018 by category (in thousands):



	Three months ended September 30,
	2019		2018		Increase/(Decrease)
Patent administration and licensing	$	34,772	$	32,077	$	2,695	8	%
Development	20,506		17,276		3,230		19	%

Total operating expenses	$	68,749	$	62,159	$	6,590	11	%

Operating expenses increased to $68.7 million in third quarter 2019 from $62.2 million in third quarter 2018. The $6.6 million increase in total operating expenses was primarily due to changes in the following items (in thousands):

Table of Contents



	Increase/ (Decrease)
Technicolor Acquisitions: Recurring costs	7,596
Intellectual property enforcement and non-patent litigation	1,989
Other	356
Technicolor Acquisitions: Transaction and integration costs	(3,351		)
Total increase in operating expenses	$	6,590

The $6.6 million increase in operating expenses was primarily driven by the Technicolor Acquisition and the acquisition of the R&I unit of Technicolor SA (together, the "Technicolor Acquisitions"), which contributed $15.8 million to our third quarter 2019 operating expenses. The $15.8 million of operating expenses is comprised of $13.7 million of recurring costs, of which $4.2 million relates to patent amortization, and the remaining $2.1 million relates to transaction and integration costs. This compares to $11.5 million of operating expenses in third quarter 2018, which was comprised of $6.1 million for two months of recurring costs, and the remaining $5.4 million related to transaction and integration costs.

The $2.0 million increase in intellectual property enforcement and non-patent litigation was primarily due to new litigation launched in third quarter 2019 and existing licensee disputes.

Patent Administration and Licensing Expense: The increase in patent administration and licensing expense primarily resulted from the above-noted increases related to the Technicolor Acquisitions, intellectual property enforcement and non-patent litigation, and patent maintenance.

Development Expense: The increase in development expense primarily related to the above-noted increases resulting from the Technicolor Acquisitions and was partially offset by reduced spending on commercial initiatives.

Selling, General and Administrative Expense: The increase in selling, general and administrative expense primarily resulted from the above-noted increases related to the Technicolor Acquisitions and increased personnel-related costs, as well as increased consulting services primarily related to spending on corporate initiatives.

Non-Operating Income (Expense)

The following table compares third quarter 2019 non-operating income (expense) to third quarter 2018 non-operating income (expense) (in thousands):



	Three months ended September 30,
	2019			2018			Change
Interest expense	$	(10,920	)	$	(9,039	)	$	(1,881	)	(21	)%
Interest and investment income	3,684			3,740			(56		)	(1	)%
Gain on sale of business	8,515			—			8,515			—	%
Other income (expense), net	(4,396		)	(8,654		)	4,258			49	%
Total non-operating income (expense)	$	(3,117	)	$	(13,953	)	$	10,836		78	%

The change in non-operating income (expense) between periods was primarily driven by the recognition of a gain of $8.5 million related to the sale of our Hillcrest product business in third quarter 2019. Additionally, third quarter 2019 includes a $3.3 million loss resulting from the partial impairment of one of our strategic long-term investments, which is included in the "Other income (expense), net" caption in the table above. This compares to an $8.4 million loss resulting from the sale of our entire ownership interest in one of our strategic long-term investments and the impairment of a separate strategic long-term investment during third quarter 2018, which is also included in the "Other income (expense), net" caption in the table above. Higher interest expense relates to interest on the 2024 Notes and interest incurred on long-term debt resulting from the Technicolor Acquisition.

Income taxes

In third quarter 2019, we had an income tax benefit of $0.2 million, driven by a net discrete tax benefit of $0.4 million related to the filing of amended federal income tax returns and the sale of our Hillcrest product business. The third quarter 2019 rate was impacted by losses in certain jurisdictions where the Company presently has recorded a valuation allowance against the related tax benefit. Third quarter 2018 included a tax benefit of $21.1 million, including discrete net benefits of

Table of Contents

$14.7 million primarily related to anticipated refunds from amending tax returns for tax years covered by the Competent Authority Proceeding discussed further and defined in our 2018 Form 10-K.

On December 22, 2017, the Tax Reform Act was signed into law. The Tax Reform Act imposes a 13.125% tax rate on income that qualifies as FDII. The reduction in benefit is primarily related to the differences in our FDII deduction between the periods. The difference in the FDII deduction between the periods was driven by the timing of income between book and tax mostly related to revenue recognition. On March 6, 2019, the IRS issued proposed regulations for FDII. We are currently evaluating the impact of the proposed regulations and will record the impact, if any, as applicable.

First Nine Months 2019 Compared to First Nine Months 2018

Revenues

The following table compares first nine months 2019 revenues to first nine months 2018 revenues (in thousands):



	For the Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2019			2018		Total Increase/(Decrease)
Variable patent royalty revenue	$	22,557		$	26,322	$	(3,765	)	(14	)%
Fixed-fee royalty revenue	190,345			178,207		12,138			7	%
Current patent royalties ^a	212,902			204,529		8,373			4	%
Non-current patent royalties ^b	(4,908		)	25,489		(30,397		)	(119	)%
Total patent royalties	207,994			230,018		(22,024		)	(10	)%
Current technology solutions revenue ^a	7,794			2,060		5,734			278	%
Patent Sales ^b	975			—		975			—	%
Total revenue	$	216,763		$	232,078	$	(16,290	)	(7	)%


(a)	Recurring revenues are comprised of current patent royalties, inclusive of Dynamic Fixed-Fee Agreement royalties, and current technology solutions revenue.


(b)	Non-recurring revenues are comprised of non-current patent royalties, which primarily include past patent royalties and royalties from static agreements, as well as patent sales.

The $16.3 million decrease in total revenue was driven by a decrease in non-current patent royalties, primarily resulting from new agreements signed in the first half 2018, as well as a $5.5 million net charge recorded as contra non-recurring revenue during first quarter 2019 related to a restructured licensing arrangement with a long-term customer. The decrease in non-current patent royalties was partially offset by a $12.1 million increase in fixed-fee royalties resulting primarily from new dynamic fixed-fee agreements signed during 2018. The decrease in variable patent royalties was primarily due to a restructured licensing arrangement with a long-term customer in first quarter 2019 whose revenues are now classified as fixed-fee royalty revenue and have declined as compared to prior year. These decreases were partially offset by the inclusion of variable patent royalty revenue from agreements assumed as part of the Technicolor Acquisition. Current technology solutions revenue increased $5.7 million due to the renewal of a license agreement with an existing customer as well as the inclusion of engineering services revenue related to our on-going relationship with Technicolor.

In first nine months 2019 and first nine months 2018, 77% and 71% of our total revenue, respectively, was attributable to companies that individually accounted for 10% or more of our total revenue. In first nine months 2019 and first nine months 2018, the following companies accounted for 10% or more of our total revenue:



	Nine months ended September 30,

The following table summarizes the changes in operating expenses between first nine months 2019 and first nine months 2018 by category (in thousands):



	Nine months ended September 30,
	2019		2018		Increase/(Decrease)
Patent administration and licensing	$	108,196	$	85,480	$	22,716	27	%
Development	56,028		49,279		6,749		14	%

Total operating expenses	$	204,224	$	173,328	$	30,896	18	%

Operating expenses increased 18% to $204.2 million in first nine months 2019 from $173.3 million in first nine months 2018. The $30.9 million increase in total operating expenses was primarily due to changes in the following items (in thousands):



	Increase/(Decrease)
Technicolor Acquisitions: Recurring costs	$	28,187
Personnel-related costs	4,178
Other	921
Technicolor Acquisitions: Transaction and integration costs	(2,390		)
Total increase in operating expenses	$	30,896

The $30.9 million increase in operating expenses was primarily driven by the Technicolor Acquisitions, which contributed $41.1 million to our first nine months 2019 operating expenses. The $41.1 million of operating expenses is comprised of $34.3 million of recurring costs, of which $12.5 million relates to patent amortization, and the remaining $6.9 million relates to transaction and integration costs during first nine months 2019. This compares to $15.3 million of operating expenses in first nine months 2018, which was comprised of $6.1 million for two months of recurring costs, and the remaining $9.2 million related to transaction and integration costs.

The increase in personnel-related costs was primarily related to severance and related expenses associated with ongoing efforts to optimize our cost structure, as well as one-time costs associated with the sale of our Hillcrest product business.

Development Expense: The increase in development expense primarily resulted from the above-noted increases related to the Technicolor Acquisitions, and increased personnel-related expenses, as discussed above. These increases were partially offset by reduced spending on the development of commercial solutions in an ongoing effort to optimize our cost structure.

Non-Operating Income (Expense)

The following table compares first nine months 2019 non-operating income (expense) to first nine months 2018 non-operating income (expense) (in thousands):

Table of Contents



	Nine months ended September 30,
	2019			2018			Change
Interest expense	$	(30,305	)	$	(27,242	)	$	(3,063	)	(11	)%
Interest and investment income	11,173			11,013			160			1	%

Total non-operating income (expense)	$	(6,533	)	$	(25,136	)	$	18,603		74	%

The change in non-operating income (expense) between periods was primarily driven by the recognition of an aggregate $22.7 million gain on asset acquisition and sale of business during first nine months 2019, of which $14.2 million relates to the Technicolor R&I acquisition in second quarter 2019 and $8.5 million relates to the gain on sale of our Hillcrest product business in third quarter 2019. These gains were partially offset by the recognition of a $5.5 million loss on extinguishment of debt recognized in connection with the settlement of a portion of our 2020 Notes in second quarter 2019. Additionally, first nine months 2019 includes a $3.3 million loss resulting from the partial impairment of one of our strategic long-term investments, which is included in the "Other income (expense), net" caption in the table above. This compares to an $8.4 million loss during first nine months 2018 resulting from the sale of our entire ownership interest in one of our strategic long-term investments and the impairment of a separate strategic long-term investment, which is also included in the "Other income (expense), net" caption in the table above. Higher interest expense relates to interest on the 2024 Notes and interest incurred on long-term debt resulting from the Technicolor Acquisition.

Income taxes

In first nine months 2019, based on the statutory federal tax rate net of discrete federal and state taxes, we had an effective tax rate of 50.1%. The first nine months 2019 rate was impacted by losses in certain jurisdictions where the Company presently has recorded a valuation allowance against the related tax benefit. Excluding this valuation allowance, our first nine months 2019 effective tax rate would have been a benefit of 25.3%. In first nine months 2019, we recorded a net discrete tax expense of $3.1 million related to the acquisition of the R&I unit of Technicolor SA, the extinguishment of long-term debt, the filing of amended federal income tax returns and the sale of our Hillcrest product business. This is compared to an effective tax rate benefit of 74.4% based on the statutory federal tax rate net of discrete federal and state taxes during first nine months 2018. During first nine months 2018, we recorded discrete benefits of $18.4 million related to share-based compensation, our sale of a commercial initiative and a benefit from the anticipated filing by us of amended tax returns in connection with the Competent Authority Proceeding. The effective tax rate would have been a benefit of 19.7% not including these discrete benefits.

As noted above, on December 22, 2017, the Tax Reform Act was signed into law. The Tax Reform Act imposes a 13.125% tax rate on income that qualifies as FDII. The reduction in benefit is primarily related to the differences in our FDII deduction between the periods. The difference in the FDII deduction between the periods was driven by the timing of income between book and tax mostly related to revenue recognition. On March 6, 2019, the IRS issued proposed regulations for FDII. We are currently evaluating the impact of the proposed regulations and will record the impact, if any, as applicable.
