Frequently asked questions
What is InterDigital Inc's revenue?
InterDigital Inc's trailing twelve-month revenue is $828.92M, and consensus projects about $1.33B by 2030. Revenue is the top line the whole model builds on, and at this scale the question shifts from how fast it grows to whether margins hold as it compounds.
How profitable is IDCC?
In its most recent fiscal year, IDCC ran a gross margin of 80.30%, an operating margin of 55.26%, and a net margin of 48.76%. Margins this high mean most of each extra dollar of revenue drops through to profit, which is the signature of real pricing power.
How much free cash flow does IDCC generate?
IDCC produced $528.56M in free cash flow in its most recent fiscal year. Free cash flow is what is left after running and reinvesting in the business, and it is the cash that actually funds buybacks, dividends, and a stronger balance sheet.
Is IDCC's balance sheet healthy?
IDCC holds $738.96M in cash and equivalents against $16.29M in long-term debt, on $1.10B of shareholder equity. Cash on hand exceeds long-term debt, so the balance sheet adds little financial risk to the thesis.
