InterDigital Inc (IDCC) Options

IDCC 2024 full year revenue projection in last sentence. I said about $800 million in my prior post. IDCC says $860 million.

InterDigital Announces Financial Results for Third Quarter 2024
Company delivers Q3 results above the top end of outlook and raises FY 2024 guidance
WILMINGTON, Del., Oct. 31, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- InterDigital, Inc. (Nasdaq: IDCC), a mobile, video, and AI technology research and development company, today announced results for the quarter ended September 30, 2024.
"In the third quarter we delivered revenues of about $129 million, exceeding the top end of our guidance, driven by a strong performance from our consumer electronics and IoT licensing program," commented InterDigital CEO and President Liren Chen. "In addition, at the start of the fourth quarter, we announced a new license agreement with OPPO Group, a top smartphone vendor, and a binding arbitration agreement with Lenovo. Given the increasing momentum across the business, we are raising the midpoint of our 2024 full-year revenue guidance by $145 million to $860 million

Gamco y2y revenue growth should be about $302 million or so additional for 2024, ending at maybe abour $800 million or more for the year. But I would say check my math.

Will IDCC's Acknowledgement of AI Innovations Benefit the Stock?

Written by Zacks Equity Research for Zacks -

InterDigital, Inc. IDCC was honored with three prestigious Fierce Network Innovation Awards for its outstanding advancements in AI, Sustainability and Mobile Wireless Evolution. Organized by Fierce Networks, these awards are designed to recognize the most visionary service providers and vendors for their outstanding wireless, broadband and cloud services and equipment unveiled in the past year.

IDCC’s Award-Winning Spree
In the AI category, InterDigital's AI-native Receiver Design for Future Wireless Communications, validated through Keysight Technologies, Inc.’s KEYS over-the-air testbed, was recognized. The solution represents a significant shift in wireless technology by integrating multiple traditionally separate signal processing blocks into a unified AI/Machine Learning-based block.

This novel approach allows the receiver to perform essential tasks like channel estimation, equalization, and demodulation jointly, leading to enhanced performance and improved robustness. The state-of-the-art innovation also optimizes throughput performance, reduces communication overhead and simplifies receiver architecture, making it particularly suitable for 6G applications.

In addition to its advancements in receiver design, InterDigital was recognized for its pioneering research in energy-efficient wireless systems. In collaboration with the University of Texas at Austin, the company introduced an over-the-air federated learning (OTA-FL) method. This breakthrough method enables federated model updates directly over the air, bypassing separate uplink transmissions. As a result, OTA-FL not only improves spectrum efficiency but also significantly reduces energy consumption, contributing to more sustainable wireless systems.

In trials, the technology achieved a 400% reduction in spectrum usage and energy consumption for two devices, with improvements scaling dramatically as more devices were added—up to a 70x decrease in spectrum usage and a 7x reduction in energy consumption when 20 devices were involved. These results underscore the potential of OTA-FL to accelerate model convergence, improve spectrum efficiency, and lower energy demands, ultimately contributing to greener, more energy-efficient wireless networks.

InterDigital was also acknowledged for its contributions to Integrated Sensing and Communications (ISAC), a critical component of 6G technology. ISAC enables devices and base stations to sense their environment, turning every connected device into a potential radar for detecting and mapping surroundings. This capability can transform user experiences by enabling immersive media applications, gesture recognition and environment reconstruction for digital twins. The solution was first showcased at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona.

Does IDCC Stand to Gain From the Achievements?
The Fierce Network Innovation Award acknowledges InterDigital’s continued dedication to advancing technologies that address global challenges, such as sustainability while pushing the boundaries of wireless communication and AI innovation. Through its collaborations with industry partners and academia, InterDigital is paving the way for the future of intelligent, energy-efficient, and sustainable wireless networks, leading to higher revenues. An improved financial performance will likely propel the stock upward.

Happy holidays!

I posted this on Dec 10, 2024. I still believe it’s what is going on with the stock price for now. IMHO.
Afterhours trading has IDCC at $188. Sure, there are the MM trying to drive down the stock price. I also believe there are institutional investors who going to be selling for some profit taking until the end of 2024. This will also create downward pressure on the stock price unless IDCC announces some significant new revenue/license in the next two weeks.

In 2025 its off to the races again with all the near-term good news (OPPO, Samsung) that is awaiting.

My Dec 10 post

Yesterday, though roughly 5 minutes before open market , the share price was shown down - 7.6% and -11% half an hour before. I don't know the reason why. 

Agreed. We finally came down to @50 RSI from an overbought position. The last time we came down to a 50 RSI was a share price of 145 and then we went all the way to our all time high. We traded 1.4 Million in shares today and today was also options expiration. Not predicting the share price, but we had to retract a little bit. Gonna have to see.how earnings go.

Give it a break. IDCC has been one of the best stocks the last several moths. nothing goes straight up. Probably has to back and fill or pull back before next move up. I have no complaints.

Israt

Everything else on my watchlist up 2% or more today.  Our MM seems determined to keep us in the red.

Paullee thanks for the link. However they are reciting the same old message of being a willing licensee but for the lack of a FRAND rate. Which they want to set.

https://news.lenovo.com/pressroom/press-releases/lenovo-statement-on-the-us-international-trade-commission-ruling/

Paullee, once an infringer and remaining unlicensed for years,why not go for the gold of not paying. May the legal system and patent owner(s) finally get their just rewards. "A signed license and past use payments from the infringer."

OT - Lenova never learns


ITC judge rules Lenovo's Motorola phones infringe Ericsson's patents
Lenovo states it's a willing licensee but the ITC final initial determination says that Ericsson's SEPs are valid and Motorola Mobility phones and components infringe.

It is high time for IDCC to give us some news.

I don't know. Share holders aren't.

Do the arbiters get paid by the day?

Sounds like he really made a risky call.

scooby they act like: gypsies, tramps and thieves. They have done a number on us the last couple of days.

Come on IDCC give us something regarding the Oppo settlement monies and rate. Additionally, some info regarding the Samsung arbitration decision. It is time to put a foot in the shorts azzes.

Our market makers are thieves

Gamco, I read the judges decision and I agree that holding other patents holders lacking any connection to the UK to a FRAND rate is a Nono starter.

Patent holders with no UK patents or business should not be held to a FRAND rate set by a country or court lacking jurisdiction over them.

At any rate we shall see what happens when the Tesla UK appeal decision is rendered. The 2 day hearing held this week is over.

From Gemini:


The potential implications of Tesla's appeal for a UK global FRAND rate ruling against Avanci/InterDigital are significant and could reshape the landscape of patent licensing in the tech industry.
What's at Stake:
 * Global FRAND Rates: A successful appeal could establish a precedent for setting global FRAND rates in the UK, impacting not just Tesla and Avanci but potentially all companies involved in SEP licensing.
 * Patent Pool Dynamics: The case challenges the traditional approach to patent pools, where individual SEP holders negotiate licenses. A global FRAND rate could disrupt this model, potentially leading to more centralized licensing.
 * Industry-Wide Impact: The outcome could influence how companies value and license SEPs, potentially impacting innovation and competition across various industries.
Potential Outcomes:
 * Increased Certainty: A global FRAND rate could bring more certainty to SEP licensing, reducing the need for lengthy and costly negotiations.
 * Reduced Litigation: A clear framework for FRAND rates could potentially decrease the number of patent infringement lawsuits.
 * Fairer Licensing: A global rate could ensure that SEP holders are fairly compensated while preventing excessive royalties that could stifle innovation.
Challenges and Considerations:
 * Complexity: Setting a single global FRAND rate for a diverse portfolio of patents across different jurisdictions is a complex undertaking.
 * Resistance: SEP holders and patent pools may resist a centralized approach to licensing, preferring to maintain control over their individual portfolios.
 * Unintended Consequences: A global FRAND rate could have unintended consequences, such as discouraging innovation in essential technologies.
Overall:
Tesla's appeal is a high-stakes legal battle with the potential to significantly impact the future of SEP licensing. While the outcome remains uncertain, it is clear that the case will have far-reaching implications for the tech industry and beyond.

This week’s two-day hearing will produce one of the most important SEP-related decisions of 2025

sure seems like the MM is shaking the tree to get stop loss orders for a short covering....with institutions owning 109% insiders at 1.26% and shorts holding 3.1 million shares out of a float of less than 26m, something has to give...there is a lot of good news on the horizon and as the days go bye we get closer to announcements.......it does feel better going up though

We have been way overbought for awhile…there are probably some stop/loss bids out there that the MMs are after too. It would be great to get an rev/earnings estimate update…maybe next week. IMO.

Did I miss some bad news or a downgrade?

Why are we down 4% today?

thanks guys, things are looking good....we may be in a very good position here going forward..exciting times ahead

Lumpy don't forget the Samsung arbitration is concluded and should be announced anytime. Also Lenovo has agreed to arbitration for a license from 2023 forward. This arbitration should start during 2025.

Lumpy, Monterey posted the OPPO settlement information before saw your post. And his post.

What a board.

Plenty of road left for Tesla's FRAND dispute with Avanci
Global, United Kingdom, USA December 2 2024

The UK Courts are in the spotlight again for FRAND litigation with the appeal hearing for Tesla v Avanci and InterDigital is listed to be heard by the Court of Appeal today and tomorrow (2nd and 3rd December 2024).

Tesla are revving up for the next round of their dispute with patent pool provider, Avanci, and patent owner, InterDigital, where Tesla will argue that the court should overturn the High Court's decision to dismiss the claims due to jurisdictional issues.

For those who have not been submerged in patent pool litigation here is a brief recap of the dispute:

Tesla brought a claim in the UK High Court against Avanci and InterDigital for declaratory relief on fair, reasonable and non-discriminatory (FRAND) terms for a patent pool licence. On 15 July 2024 the High Court ruled against Tesla and dismissed the claim on the basis that it did not have jurisdiction over the licensing claims or that they should be struck out. Tesla had also brought collateral patent claims against InterDigital that were stayed.

Avanci, a company headquartered in Texas, operates a licensing platform that offers automotive manufacturers patent pool licences for 2G, 3G, 4G and 5G technology. InterDigital owns several 5G patents licensed under Avanci's patent pool. InterDigital was joined to the action as a representative of the companies who license their patents through Avanci's patent pool.

Tesla previously dipped its toes in Avanci's patent pool and held a license for a pool of 2G, 3G and 4G patents. Now, Tesla wants to introduce 5G technology to its cars and has sought a licence for the 5G standard essential patents (SEPs) on Avanci's platform. Avanci offered a rate of $32 per vehicle for a license of approximately 170,000 patents from 65+ patent owners. Tesla disputes this rate and asked the UK court to determine a global FRAND rate for the entire patent pool.

Avanci disagrees with Tesla and argues that although bilateral license agreements for a SEP must be on FRAND terms, Avanci is not a patentee and therefore is not bound by the requirement under ETSI (the telecoms regulator) to offer a licence on FRAND terms. It further argues that the platform licence is a commercial alternative to obtaining bilateral licences with each patentee.

Unfortunately, these arguments could not be fully considered as Avanci and InterDigital successfully argued that there was not a strong enough connection to the UK for the UK court to have jurisdiction. Both companies are headquartered in the U.S. and some Avanci licensors may not hold a single UK patent.

Mr Justice Fancourt, the judge at first instance, was sympathetic to Tesla's desire for judicial guidance on whether Avanci's pool license terms (including the $32 rate) are FRAND, and seemingly would have applied the UK SEP case law, as UK courts have but could not get over the jurisdictional issues at play.

The wheels are in motion for the latest instalment of this dispute and we are excited to see where this road takes us…

{

It may seem odd that a claim which Tesla has a legitimate interest in pursuing and which would in principle serve a proper purpose cannot be pursued here. The conclusion that it cannot has given me some concern. It would be very odd indeed if Tesla could not obtain a decision on its claim in any jurisdiction that is reasonably suitable.

Irwin Gross • 3rd+Partner at Gross Capital Partners, LLC17hMr. Chen. I have been away from IDDC since 1983. i am probably one of the last of the orriginal founderrs. i provided early capital to IMM in those days, and became the second largestt shareholder to Sherwin. He and i guuided the company through the lean years and conceived, patented and funded the first early technologies. Historically, in 76 we demonstragted the worlds first wireless phone, on the Hill in Belmont Plaza in Philly on the 100 th anniversity of Alexander Bells first phone. I gave the speech to introduce the product.
As the second largest shareholder i was very instrumental and doing our first iPO witht DHBlair in 81. i became the COO.

i held that position, until we did our secondary in 83, and i recruited and Hired Hilsman to be the President. I stayed on for a short while and moved on to multiple other companies from there.

There is more to the story and if interested i could give more color.

The history is an adventure.

I am wondering what positive affect on the share price the OPPO settlement payments will have on the share price for this qtr and end of year.  Couple that with a possible Samsung arbitration rate announcement for this 4th qtr and end of year. Makes me say wow.

I wonder if the company will be buying back shares at this price?  All of the shares they have bought back to date have added value!

Not a fan of Merritt, but buying Technicolor RI in 2018/2019 transformed this company, even though it was deemed expensive by some at the time.
Props to Liren & Chief Licensing Officer Eeva.
Here is a thesis for IDCC intrinsic value to be $256 FWIW.
https://simplywall.st/stocks/us/software/nasdaq-idcc/interdigital/news/interdigital-inc-nasdaqidcc-shares-could-be-28-below-their-i

What dynamic causes someone to purchase shares at $10 above the prior closing price?

Is this one short covering?

$203.90 OOOO RRRR EEEE EEEE NNNN OOOO ! ! ! !

When will the shorts cover?  Is this the short squeeze we've been waiting for?

Still here, still holding, IDCC going higher, apparently wireless tech is still a thing.

Good luck to the longs.
