About Acacia Research

From its filings with the US Securities and Exchange Commission

SEC filings

Acacia Research is based in New York, New York and is incorporated in Delaware. Its shares trade on Nasdaq under the ticker ACTG. The SEC classifies its business as patent owners & lessors. In the fiscal year to 31 December 2025, it reported revenue of $285.2m and net income of $21.7m. At that date it held total assets of $771.0m and shareholders' equity of $543.5m.

In its own words

Acacia Research Corporation (the “Company,” “Acacia,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) is a disciplined value-oriented acquirer and operator of businesses across public and private markets and industries including but not limited to the industrial, energy and technology sectors. We acquire businesses with a view towards strong free cash flow generation and with an ability to scale where we can tap into our deep industry relationships, significant capital base, and transaction expertise to materially improve performance. We are focused on sourcing, execution, and improvement. We find unique situations, bring a flexible and creative approach to transacting, combining relationships and expertise to drive continual improvement in operating performance. We approach transactions as business owners and operators, rather than purely as financial investors. We believe this differentiates us in creating long-term value for shareholders and partners. We define value through free cash flow generation, book value appreciation, and stock price growth. These are the pillars of the Acacia story.

We are particularly attracted to complex situations where we believe value is not fully recognized, the value of certain operations is masked by a diversified business mix, or where private ownership has not invested the capital and/or resources necessary to support long-term value. Through our public market activities, we aim to initiate strategic block positions in public companies as a path to complete whole company acquisitions or strategic transactions that unlock value.
