About Adeia

From its filings with the US Securities and Exchange Commission

SEC filings

Adeia is based in San Jose, California and is incorporated in Delaware. Its shares trade on Nasdaq under the ticker ADEA. The SEC classifies its business as cable & other pay television services. In the fiscal year to 31 December 2025, it reported revenue of $443.4m and net income of $111.1m. At that date it held total assets of $1.04bn and shareholders' equity of $480.5m.

In its own words

We (the “Company,” “Adeia,” “we,” “our,” and “us”) are a technology company and an innovation incubator. We have spent decades investing in advanced research and development to create market-leading technologies for the entertainment, media, consumer electronics, and semiconductor industries. Our innovative solutions support practically every aspect of consumers’ day-to-day interaction with media, consumer electronics and entertainment, enabling our customers to build customized, next-generation solutions for users around the globe. We believe our commitment to and investment in innovation has resulted in a leading intellectual property (“IP”) licensing platform in these industries, with an extensive portfolio of media and semiconductor IP. In order to serve an increasingly connected world, we invent, develop, acquire and license fundamental innovations that enhance billions of devices and shape the way millions of people explore and experience entertainment and technology across a variety of platforms.

Ideas are at the heart of our business and are embedded in our name, which means “to license” in Greek. Licensing these ideas is how we go to market – by making our ideas broadly available to the media and semiconductor industries. Our innovations address one of the biggest consumer trends in entertainment today – the massive proliferation of entertainment content and the rapidly changing habits of how consumers are finding, engaging with and enjoying entertainment and evolving technology, such as artificial intelligence (“AI”).
