Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
The Company And Basis Of Presentation	THE COMPANY AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION Xperi Corporation (the “Company”) completed the acquisition of DTS, Inc. ("DTS"), a publicly-traded developer of sound-based technologies, in December 2016. At the time of the acquisition, Tessera Technologies, Inc. and DTS were combined under the newly-formed Tessera Holding Corporation. During the first quarter of 2017, the Company introduced its new corporate name, “Xperi Corporation”, stock ticker, “XPER”, and launched a new corporate logo. Xperi Corporation licenses its innovative products, technologies and inventions to global electronics companies which, in turn, integrate the technologies into their own consumer electronics and semiconductor products. The Company's technologies and inventions are widely adopted and used every day by millions of people. The Company's audio technologies have shipped in billions of devices for the home, mobile and automotive markets. The Company's imaging technologies are embedded in more than 25% of smartphones on the market today. The Company's semiconductor packaging and interconnect technologies have been licensed to more than 100 customers and have shipped in over 100 billion semiconductor chips. The accompanying interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2018 and 2017, and for the three and six months then ended, have been prepared by the Company in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) in the United States (“U.S.”) for interim financial information. The amounts as of December 31, 2017 have been derived from the Company’s annual audited financial statements. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted in accordance with such rules and regulations. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments necessary (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) to state fairly the financial position of the Company and its results of operations and cash flows as of and for the periods presented. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual audited financial statements and notes thereto as of and for the year ended December 31, 2017, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017, filed on February 23, 2018 (the “Form 10-K”). The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year ended December 31, 2018 or any future period and the Company makes no representations related thereto. Reclassification Certain reclassifications have been made to prior period balances in order to conform to the current period’s presentation.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Summary Of Significant Accounting Policies	SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The Company’s significant accounting policies are detailed in "Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies " in its Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017. Significant changes to its accounting policies as a result of adopting Topic 606 are discussed in Note 3 - Revenue . Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements In August 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-15, “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments.” This ASU addresses the classification of certain specific cash flow issues including debt prepayment or extinguishment costs, settlement of certain debt instruments, contingent consideration payments made after a business combination, proceeds from the settlement of certain insurance claims and distributions received from equity method investees. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted this standard as of January 1, 2018. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements. In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-16, "Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory." This ASU requires entities to recognize the income tax consequences of an intra-entity transfer of an asset other than inventory when the transfer occurs. For public entities, this ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. The Company adopted this standard as of January 1, 2018 on a prospective basis. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements. In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-09, “Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718) Scope of Modification Accounting.” ASU 2017-09 provides guidance about which changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment awarded require an entity to apply modification accounting. The standard is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted the standard as of January 1, 2018 on a prospective basis. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements. In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09 (Topic 606) "Revenue from Contracts with Customers." Topic 606 supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605 “Revenue Recognition” (Topic 605), and requires entities to recognize revenue when control of goods or services is transferred to customers at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for the goods or services. Under the prior standard, licensing companies generally reported revenue from per-unit royalty based arrangements one quarter in arrears. Under the new guidance, the Company estimates per-unit royalty-based revenue prior to receiving customer royalty reports. The Company also expects the standard to have a significant impact on the timing of revenue recognition associated with its fixed fee and minimum guarantee arrangements, as a majority of such revenue which had previously been recognized over the license term is expected to be recognized at the inception of the license term. On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted the new standard using the modified retrospective method, under which the Company recorded a $224 million cumulative net of tax adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings on January 1, 2018. The adjustment was determined by measuring the impact of the new standard on existing contracts that were not completed as of December 31, 2017. Prior period comparative information has not been restated and continues to be reported under Topic 605 in effect for those periods. This new standard had a material impact on the Company’s revenue and its consolidated statement of operations and balance sheet as of and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, and is expected to have a material impact on an ongoing basis, with no impact on the timing of customer billings or on cash flows. See “Note 3 - Revenue " for further discussion. The cumulative effect of the changes made to the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheet for the adoption of Topic 606 was as follows (in thousands): BALANCE SHEET Balance at December 31, 2017 Adjustments due to Topic 606 Balance at January 1, 2018 Assets Unbilled contracts receivable $ 10,866 $ 188,760 $ 199,626 Other current assets 16,949 (2,000 ) 14,949 Long-term unbilled contracts receivable 2,930 103,983 106,913 Other assets 9,772 (2,446 ) 7,326 Liabilities Accrued liabilities 47,969 432 48,401 Deferred revenue 2,686 (783 ) 1,903 Long-term deferred tax liabilities 15,085 64,520 79,605 Equity Retained earnings 68,556 224,128 292,684 The most significant impact from adopting Topic 606 was a substantial increase in unbilled contracts receivable, long-term deferred tax liabilities and retained earnings, which was driven primarily by applying the standard on fixed fee and minimum guarantee contracts that were not completed as of December 31, 2017, and secondarily by recording to retained earnings those royalties from customer shipments completed in the fourth quarter of 2017 and reported to the Company in the first quarter of 2018. The adjustments noted above had no impact on the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the six months ended June 30, 2018. Adoption of the new revenue standard had the following impact on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements as compared to the comparable data under the previous accounting standards (in thousands, except per share amounts): Three months ended June 30, 2018 Six months ended June 30, 2018 STATEMENT OF OPERATIONS As Reported Amounts under Topic 605 Effect of Change Higher/(lower) As Reported Amounts under Topic 605 Effect of Change Higher/(lower) Royalty and license fees $ 63,954 $ 96,716 $ (32,762 ) $ 129,486 $ 192,876 $ (63,390 ) Cost of revenue 2,080 2,230 (150 ) 4,404 4,329 75 Operating income (loss) (27,606 ) 5,006 (32,612 ) (60,097 ) 3,368 (63,465 ) Other income and expense, net 2,229 81 2,148 5,383 1,084 4,299 Loss before taxes (31,577 ) (1,112 ) (30,465 ) (67,232 ) (8,065 ) (59,167 ) Provision for (benefit from) income taxes (3,321 ) 2,458 (5,779 ) (5,959 ) 4,708 (10,667 ) Net loss (28,256 ) (3,570 ) (24,686 ) (61,273 ) (12,773 ) (48,500 ) Basic net loss per share $ (0.58 ) $ (0.07 ) $ (0.51 ) $ (1.25 ) $ (0.26 ) $ (0.99 ) As of June 30, 2018 BALANCE SHEET As Reported Amounts under Topic 605 Effect of Change Higher/(lower) Assets Unbilled contracts receivable $ 175,315 $ 5,568 $ 169,747 Other current assets 16,422 17,922 (1,500 ) Long-term unbilled contracts receivable 65,013 2,091 62,922 Other assets 4,959 6,609 (1,650 ) Liabilities Accrued liabilities 24,254 25,019 (765 ) Deferred revenue 4,106 4,838 (732 ) Long-term deferred tax liabilities 64,545 9,225 55,320 Equity Retained earnings 211,722 36,026 175,696 Recent Accounting Pronouncements In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, " Leases" (Topic 842) (ASU 2016-02), which generally requires companies to recognize operating and financing lease liabilities and corresponding right-of-use assets on the balance sheet. This guidance will be effective for the Company in the first quarter of 2019, and early adoption is permitted. The Company will adopt the new standard effective January 1, 2019. While the Company continues to evaluate the effect of adopting this guidance on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures, it is expected the Company's operating leases, as disclosed in Note 13 - " Commitments and Contingencies ," will be subject to the new standard. In the second quarter of 2018, the Company established an implementation team to develop a multi-phase plan to assess the Company’s leasing arrangements, as well as any changes to accounting policies, processes or systems necessary to adopt the requirements of the new standard. The Company is evaluating the full impact this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements, and expects that adoption will result in increases in lease-related Right-of-Use assets and liabilities on its consolidated balance sheet. In September 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments” (“ASU 2016-13”), which introduces an approach based on expected losses to estimate credit losses on certain types of financial instruments. It also modifies the impairment model for available-for-sale debt securities and provides for a simplified accounting model for purchased financial assets with credit deterioration since their origination. ASU 2016-13 is effective for the Company in the first quarter of the year ending December 31, 2020. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of the adoption of this new standard on its consolidated financial statements.

Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract]
Revenue	REVENUE As discussed in Note 2, on January 1, 2018, the Company adopted Topic 606 using the modified retrospective method. Results for reporting periods beginning January 1, 2018 are presented under Topic 606, while prior period amounts are not restated and continue to be reported in accordance with the historic accounting under Topic 605. Revenue Recognition The Company derives its revenue primarily from royalty and license fees for rights to use the Company’s intellectual property and technologies (“IP”). Revenue is recognized upon transfer of control of promised products, services or IP rights to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for those products, services or licensing of the IP rights. Certain licensees have entered into fixed fee or minimum guarantee arrangements, whereby licensees pay a fixed fee for the right to incorporate the Company's technology in the licensee's products over the license term. In arrangements with a minimum guarantee, the fixed fee component corresponds to a minimum number of units or dollars that the customer must produce or pay, with additional per-unit fees for any units or dollars exceeding the minimum. In most cases, the customer pays the fixed license fee in specified installments over the license term. For these agreements, the Company recognizes the full fixed fee as revenue at the beginning of the license term, when the licensee has the right to use the IP and begins to benefit from the license. If the contract term of a fixed fee or minimum guarantee arrangement is longer than one year, the Company also considers the scheduled payment arrangements to determine whether a significant financing component exists. In general, if the payment arrangements extend beyond the initial twelve months of the contract, the Company treats a portion of the payments as a significant financing component. When the payments are expected to be received within one year or less, the Company does not adjust the promised amount of consideration for the effects of a financing component. The discount rate used for each arrangement reflects the rate that would be used in a separate financing transaction between the Company and the licensee at contract inception, and takes into account the credit characteristics of the licensee and market interest rates as of the date of the agreement. As such, the amount of fixed fee revenue recognized at the beginning of the license term will be reduced by the calculated financing component. As payments are received from the licensee, the Company recognizes a portion of the financing component as interest income, reported as other income and expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. For certain licensees, royalty revenues are generated based on a licensee's production or shipment of licensed products incorporating the Company’s IP, technologies or software. Licensees with a per-unit arrangement pay a per-unit royalty for each product manufactured or sold, as set forth in its license agreement. Licensees generally report manufacturing or sales information in the quarter subsequent to when the shipment activity takes place. The Company estimates the royalties earned each quarter based on its forecast of manufacturing and sales activity incurred by its licensees in that quarter. Any differences between actual royalties owed by a licensee and the Company’s quarterly estimate are recognized in the following quarter, when the licensee’s royalty report is received. Estimating licensees’ quarterly royalties prior to receiving the royalty reports requires the Company to make significant assumptions and judgments that could have a material impact on the amount of revenue it reports on a quarterly basis. The Company actively monitors and enforces its IP, including seeking appropriate compensation from customers that have under-reported royalties owed under a license agreement and from third parties that utilize the Company’s intellectual property without a license. As a result of these activities, the Company may, from time to time, recognize revenue from payments resulting from periodic compliance audits of licensees for underreporting royalties incurred in prior periods, as part of a settlement of a patent infringement dispute, or legal judgments from a license dispute. These recoveries and settlements may cause revenue to be higher than expected during a particular reporting period and such recoveries may not occur in subsequent periods. The Company recognizes revenue from recoveries when a binding agreement has been executed and the Company concludes collection under that agreement is likely. In some instances, the Company may enter into license agreements that contain multiple performance obligations that include engineering services in addition to a technology or software license. For such arrangements where all components are capable of being distinct and accounted for as separate performance obligations, the Company allocates revenue to each performance obligation based on its relative standalone selling price. The Company generally determines standalone selling prices based on the prices ordinarily charged to customers, or in some cases by applying a reasonable cost-plus margin. The consideration for engineering services is recognized as the underlying performance obligations are satisfied. Generally, the Company satisfies performance obligations over time and therefore recognizes revenue over time by measuring the progress toward completion of the performance obligation at each reporting period. Revenue is recognized gross of withholding taxes that are remitted directly by the Company's licensees directly to a local tax authority. For additional detail on the Company's revenue disaggregated by geographic location, refer to Note 14 - " Segment and Geographic Information ." Contract Balances Unbilled Contracts Receivable Timing of revenue recognition may differ significantly from the timing of invoicing to customers. Accounts receivable, net, include amounts billed and currently due from customers. Unbilled contracts receivable represent unbilled amounts expected to be received from customers in future periods, where the revenue recognized to date (or cumulative adjustments to retained earnings in the initial period of adopting Topic 606) exceeds the amount billed, and right to payment is subject to the underlying contractual terms. Unbilled contracts receivable amounts may not exceed their net realizable value and are classified as long-term assets if the payments are expected to be received more than one year from the reporting date. Deferred Revenue Deferred revenue includes payments made by licensees for which the corresponding performance obligations have not yet been fully satisfied by the Company and typically arises where performance obligations are satisfied over time. The following table presents additional revenue and contract disclosures (in thousands): Three months ended June 30, Six months ended June 30, 2018 2017 2018 2017 Revenue recognized in the period from: Amounts included in deferred revenue at the beginning of the period $ 1,642 $ 1,369 $ 1,995 $ 1,605 Performance obligations satisfied in previous periods (true ups) 54 — 54 — Remaining revenue under contracts with performance obligations represents the aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to the performance obligations that are unsatisfied (or partially unsatisfied) under the Company’s engineering services contracts. The Company's remaining revenue under contracts with performance obligations was as follows (in thousands): As of June 30, 2018 December 31, 2017 Revenue from contracts with performance obligations expected to be satisfied in: One year or less $ 6,373 $ 2,440 More than one year but less than two years 437 149 More than two years 118 240 Total $ 6,928 $ 2,829 Practical Expedients The Company expenses sales commissions when incurred because the amortization period generally would have been one year or less. In addition, sales commissions have historically not been a significant expense and are not contemplated to be significant in the future. Sales commissions are recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statement of operations.

These balances include $47.0 million and $97.8 million in cash held in operating accounts not included in the tables above at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 , respectively. The gross realized gains and losses on sales of marketable securities were not significant during the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 . Unrealized losses were $0.5 million and $0.3 million , net of tax, as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. These amounts were related to temporary fluctuations in value of the remaining available-for-sale securities and were due primarily to changes in interest rates and market and credit conditions of the underlying securities. Certain investments with a temporary decline in value are not considered to be other-than-temporarily impaired as of June 30, 2018 because the Company has the intent and ability to hold these investments to allow for recovery, does not anticipate having to sell these securities with unrealized losses and continues to receive interest at the maximum contractual rate. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 , respectively, the Company did not record any impairment charges related to its marketable securities. The following table summarizes the fair value and gross unrealized losses related to individual available-for-sale securities at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, which have been in a continuous unrealized loss position, aggregated by investment category and length of time (in thousands): June 30, 2018 Less Than 12 Months 12 Months or More Total Fair Value Gross Unrealized Losses Fair Value Gross Unrealized Losses Fair Value Gross Unrealized Losses Corporate bonds and notes $ 24,340 $ (325 ) $ 9,188 $ (52 ) $ 33,528 $ (377 ) Treasury and agency notes and bills — — 5,921 (79 ) 5,921 (79 ) Total $ 24,340 $ (325 ) $ 15,109 $ (131 ) $ 39,449 $ (456 ) December 31, 2017 Less Than 12 Months 12 Months or More Total Fair Value Gross Unrealized Losses Fair Value Gross Unrealized Losses Fair Value Gross Unrealized Losses Corporate bonds and notes $ 30,811 $ (189 ) $ 14,762 $ (41 ) $ 45,573 $ (230 ) Commercial paper 2,390 (2 ) — — 2,390 (2 ) Treasury and agency notes and bills — — 5,929 (71 ) 5,929 (71 ) Total $ 33,201 $ (191 ) $ 20,691 $ (112 ) $ 53,892 $ (303 ) The estimated fair value of marketable securities by contractual maturity at June 30, 2018 is shown below (in thousands).

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]
Fair Value	FAIR VALUE The Company follows the authoritative guidance for fair value measurement and the fair value option for financial assets and financial liabilities. Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability, or an exit price, in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The established fair value hierarchy requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. There are three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value: Level 1 Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. Level 2 Observable market-based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data. Level 3 Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets. Level 3 assets and liabilities include financial instruments whose value is determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation. When applying fair value principles in the valuation of assets, the Company is required to maximize the use of quoted market prices and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The Company calculates the fair value of its Level 1 and Level 2 instruments based on the exchange traded price of similar or identical instruments, where available, or based on other observable inputs. There were no significant transfers into or out of Level 1 or Level 2 that occurred between December 31, 2017 and June 30, 2018. The following is a list of the Company’s assets required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis and where they were classified within the hierarchy as of June 30, 2018 (in thousands): Fair Value Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1) Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2) Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3) Assets Marketable securities Money market funds (1) $ 8,781 $ 8,781 $ — $ — Corporate bonds and notes (2) 33,528 — 33,528 — Treasury and agency notes and bills (2) 5,921 — 5,921 — Total Assets $ 48,230 $ 8,781 $ 39,449 $ — The following footnotes indicate where the noted items were recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet at June 30, 2018 : (1) Reported as cash and cash equivalents.

Debt Disclosure [Abstract]
Debt	DEBT On December 1, 2016, in connection with the consummation of the acquisition of DTS, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) by and among the Company, Royal Bank of Canada, as administrative agent and collateral agent, and the lenders party thereto. The Credit Agreement provided for a $600.0 million seven -year term B loan facility (the “Term B Loan Facility”) which matures on November 30, 2023 . Upon the closing of the Credit Agreement, the Company borrowed $600.0 million under the Term B Loan facility. Net proceeds were used on December 1, 2016, together with cash and cash equivalents, to finance the acquisition of DTS. On January 23, 2018, the Company and the loan parties entered into an amendment to the Credit Agreement (the “Amendment”). In connection with the Amendment, the Company made a voluntary prepayment of $100.0 million of the term loan outstanding under the Credit Agreement using cash on hand. The Amendment provided for, among other things, (i) a replacement of the outstanding initial term loan with the new tranche term B-1 loan (the “Amended Term B Loan”) in a principal amount of $494.0 million , (ii) a reduction of the interest rate margin applicable to such loan to (x) in the case of Eurodollar loans, 2.50% per annum and (y) in the case of base rate loans, 1.50% per annum, (iii) a prepayment premium of 1.00% in connection with any repricing transaction with respect to the Amended Term B Loan within six months of the closing date of the Amendment, and (iv) certain amendments to provide the Company with additional flexibility under the covenant governing restricted payments. The Company’s obligations under the Credit Agreement, as amended by the Amendment, continue to be guaranteed by substantially all of the Company’s subsidiaries, and secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries. The Credit Agreement contains customary events of default, upon the occurrence of which, after any applicable grace period, the lenders will have the ability to accelerate all outstanding loans thereunder. The Credit Agreement contains customary representations and warranties and affirmative and negative covenants that, among other things, restrict the ability of the Company to create or incur certain liens, incur or guarantee additional indebtedness, merge or consolidate with other companies, transfer or sell assets and make restricted payments. The Company was in compliance with all requirements during the three and six months ended June 30, 2018. All lenders of the Term B Loan Facility participated in the Amendment and the changes in terms were not considered substantial. Accordingly, the repricing event was accounted for as a debt modification. The Company elected to continue to defer the unamortized debt issuance costs related to the partial pay-down of the debt as the prepayment was factored into the terms agreed to on the debt. At June 30, 2018, $494.0 million was outstanding with an interest rate, including the amortization of debt issuance costs, of 5.0% . Interest is payable monthly. There were also $13.0 million of unamortized debt issuance costs recorded as a reduction of the long-term portion of the debt. Interest expense was $6.2 million and $ 12.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively. Interest expense was $7.0 million and $13.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively. Amortized debt issuance costs, which were included in interest expense, amounted to $0.6 million and $1.3 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, and $0.6 million and $1.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively. Other than the voluntary prepayment of $100.0 million in January 2018, there were no other debt principal payments in the first two quarters of 2018 as the prepayment exceeded the minimum principal payment requirements. There were debt principal payments of $1.5 million and $3.0 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively. As of June 30, 2018, future minimum principal payments for long-term debt are summarized as follows (in thousands): 2018 (remaining 6 months) $ — 2019 — 2020 — 2021 — 2022 — Thereafter 494,000 Total $ 494,000

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]
Net Loss Per Share	NET LOSS PER SHARE The Company has a share-based compensation plan under which employees may be granted share-based awards including shares of restricted stock and restricted stock units ("RSUs"). Non-forfeitable dividends are paid on unvested shares of restricted stock. No dividends are accrued or paid on unvested RSUs. As such, shares of restricted stock are considered participating securities under the two-class method of calculating earnings per share. The two-class method of calculating earnings per share did not have a material impact on the Company’s loss per share calculation for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017. The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted shares (in thousands): Three Months Ended Six Months Ended June 30, 2018 June 30, 2017 June 30, 2018 June 30, 2017 Denominator: Weighted average common shares outstanding 49,060 49,477 49,110 49,264 Less: shares of restricted stock subject to repurchase — (2 ) — (3 ) Total common shares-basic 49,060 49,475 49,110 49,261 Effect of dilutive securities: Options — — — — Restricted stock awards and units — — — — Total common shares-diluted 49,060 49,475 49,110 49,261 Basic net income (loss) per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, excluding any unvested restricted stock awards that are subject to repurchase. Diluted net income (loss) per share is computed using the treasury stock method to calculate the weighted average number of common shares and, if dilutive, potential common shares outstanding during the period. Potential dilutive common shares include unvested restricted stock awards and units and incremental common shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options, less shares from assumed proceeds. The assumed proceeds calculation includes actual proceeds to be received from the employee upon exercise and the average unrecognized stock compensation cost during the period. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, there was no difference in the weighted average number of common shares used for the calculation of basic and diluted loss per share as the effect of all potentially dilutive shares outstanding was anti-dilutive. A total of 2.9 million and 2.9 million shares subject to stock options and restricted stock awards and units were excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, because including them would have been anti-dilutive. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, there was no difference in the weighted average number of common shares used for the calculation of basic and diluted loss per share as the effect of all potentially dilutive shares outstanding was anti-dilutive. A total 0.7 million and 1.1 million shares subject to stock options and restricted stock awards and units were excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively, because including them would have been anti-dilutive.

As of June 30, 2018 , the Company has repurchased a total of approximately 12,513,000 shares of common stock, since inception of the plan, at an average price of $26.94 per share for a total cost of $337.1 million . As of December 31, 2017, the Company had repurchased a total of approximately 11,142,000 shares of common stock, since inception of the plan, at an average price of $27.57 per share for a total cost of $307.2 million . The shares repurchased are recorded as treasury stock and are accounted for under the cost method. No expiration date has been specified for this plan. As of June 30, 2018 , the total remaining amount available for repurchase was $112.9 million . The Company plans to continue to execute authorized repurchases from time to time under the plan. Stock Option Plans The 2003 Plan As of June 30, 2018 , there were approximately 3.6 million shares reserved for future grant under the Company’s 2003 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2003 Plan”).

Income Taxes

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]
Income Taxes	INCOME TAXES For the three months ended June 30, 2018, the Company recorded an income tax benefit of $3.3 million on a pretax loss of $31.6 million and for the six months ended June 30, 2018, the Company recorded an income tax benefit of $6.0 million on a pretax loss of $67.2 million , which resulted in an effective tax rate year to date of 8.9% . The income tax benefit for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 was primarily related to tax benefit from losses and credits generated from operations offset by foreign withholding taxes, certain book-to-tax permanent differences, valuation allowance recorded against the Company’s unutilized tax credits generated in the current year, and shortfalls from stock-based compensation. For the three months ended June 30, 2017, the Company recorded an income tax provision of $26.6 million , and for the six months ended June 30, 2017, the Company recorded an income tax benefit of $8.7 million , which resulted in an effective tax rate year to date of 14.8% . The income tax provision of $26.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 was primarily related to a decrease in the Company’s estimated annual effective tax rate applied to actual year-to-date losses incurred that resulted in a reduction of actual tax benefit as compared to the prior quarter. The income tax benefit of $8.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 was primarily related to losses generated in the U.S. and foreign operations offset by foreign withholding tax liability. The Company's provision for income taxes is based on its worldwide estimated annualized effective tax rate, except for jurisdictions for which a loss is expected for the year and no benefit can be realized for those losses, and the tax effect of discrete items occurring during the period. The tax for jurisdictions for which a loss is expected and no benefit can be realized for the year is based on actual taxes and tax reserves for the quarter. The decrease in income tax benefit for the six months ended June 30, 2018 as compared to the income tax benefit during the same period in the prior year is largely attributable to valuation allowance recorded against the Company’s tax credits. As of June 30, 2018, unrecognized tax benefits were $34.1 million (which is included in long-term deferred tax and other liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet), of which $22.2 million would affect the effective tax rate if recognized. As of June 30, 2017, unrecognized tax benefits were $30.5 million (which was included in long-term deferred tax and other liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet), of which $24.0 million would affect the effective tax rate if recognized. The Company is unable to reasonably estimate the timing of the long-term payments or the amount by which the liability will increase or decrease. It is the Company's policy to classify accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in the provision for income taxes. For the six months ended June 30, 2018 and June 30, 2017, the Company recognized an insignificant amount of interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits. Accrued interest and penalties were $0.7 million and $0.6 million as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. At June 30, 2018, the Company's 2013 through 2017 tax years were open and subject to potential examination in one or more jurisdictions. In addition, in the U.S., any net operating losses or credits that were generated in prior years but not yet fully utilized in a year that is closed under the statute of limitations may also be subject to examination. The Company is currently under examination by the Internal Revenue Service for tax year 2014 and cannot estimate the financial outcome of the examination. The Company is not currently under foreign income tax examination. On December 22, 2017, the Tax Cut and Jobs Act (“Tax Act”) was signed into law. The Tax Act introduced a broad range of tax reform measures that significantly change the federal income tax laws. As of December 31, 2017, the Company recorded a provisional tax expense in the Statement of Operations of approximately $5.6 million , comprised of approximately $13.5 million tax expense from recording additional valuation allowance against federal tax credits due to certain provisions of the Tax Act, offset by approximately $7.9 million of tax benefit from the remeasurement of U.S. deferred taxes using the relevant tax rate at which the Company expects them to reverse in the future. The estimated one-time transition tax on post-1986 foreign unremitted earnings is not anticipated to have a material impact to the Company's effective tax rate. As of June 30, 2018, the Company has not recorded any adjustments to the provisional tax expense. The Company continues to monitor supplemental legislation and technical interpretations of the tax law that may cause the final impact from the Tax Act to differ from the provisionally recorded amounts. The Company expects to complete its analysis within the measurement period allowed by Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No.118, no later than the fourth quarter of 2018.

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
Commitments And Contingencies	COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Lease Commitments The Company leases office and research facilities and office equipment under operating leases which expire at various dates through 2029. Under lease agreements that contain escalating rent provisions, lease expense is recorded on a straight-line basis over the lease term. There were no material changes to our future minimum lease payments during the three and six months ended June 30, 2018. Rent expense for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 amounted to $1.8 million and $1.5 million , respectively. Rent expense for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 amounted to $3.6 million and $3.1 million , respectively. Contingencies At each reporting period, the Company evaluates whether or not a potential loss amount or a potential range of loss is probable and reasonably estimable under the provisions of the authoritative guidance that addresses accounting for contingencies. The Company is currently unable to predict the final outcome of lawsuits to which it is a party and therefore cannot determine the likelihood of loss nor estimate a range of possible loss. An adverse decision in any of these proceedings could significantly harm the Company’s business and consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Tessera, Inc. v. Toshiba Corporation, Civil Action No. 5:15-cv-02543-BLF (N.D. Cal.) On May 12, 2015, Tessera, Inc. filed a complaint against Toshiba Corporation (“Toshiba”) in California Superior Court. Tessera, Inc.’s complaint alleges causes of action for breach of contract, breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing, and declaratory relief, generally alleging that Toshiba underpaid royalties and failed to cooperate with audits conducted pursuant to the parties’ license agreement. On June 8, 2015, Toshiba removed the action to the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California. On June 18, 2015, Toshiba filed its answer, affirmative defenses, and counterclaims to Tessera, Inc.’s complaint. Toshiba alleges counterclaims for declaratory judgment and breach of the implied warranty of good faith and fair dealing. The counterclaims seek, among other things, judicial determinations about the interpretation of the parties’ agreement, termination of the agreement, an accounting of the amount of alleged overpayments by Toshiba, restitution, and damages. On July 10, 2015, Tessera, Inc. filed its answer and affirmative defenses to Toshiba’s counterclaims. On March 17, 2016, Tessera, Inc. filed an amended complaint adding a claim for declaratory relief regarding a February 12, 2016 letter sent by Toshiba to Tessera, Inc. purporting to terminate the parties’ license agreement. On March 18, 2016, Toshiba filed its amended answer, affirmative defenses, and counterclaims. On April 4, 2016, Tessera, Inc. filed an answer to Toshiba’s amended counterclaims. An initial summary judgment hearing on contract issues took place on September 22, 2016. On November 7, 2016, the Court entered an order granting Toshiba’s motion regarding the definition of “TCC,” and denying summary judgment on the other issues raised by the parties’ cross-motions. On December 6, 2016, Tessera, Inc. filed a motion pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 54(b) seeking authorization to appeal the order and for a stay. On March 6, 2017, the Court granted the Rule 54(b) motion. The Court subsequently vacated the trial date and stayed the remainder of the district court proceedings. On April 4, 2017, Tessera, Inc. filed a notice of appeal to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit. The parties completed briefing on November 2, 2017. A hearing for oral argument has been scheduled for October 15, 2018. Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. v. Panasonic Corporation (f/k/a Matsushita Electric Industrial Co.), Ltd., Pannova Semic, LLC, and Tessera Advanced Technologies, Inc. (International Chamber of Commerce) On May 18, 2018, Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. (“Samsung”) filed a Request for Arbitration against Tessera Advanced Technologies, Inc. (“Tessera”), Panasonic Corporation (f/k/a Matsushita Electric Industrial Co.) (“Panasonic”) and Pannova Semic, LLC (“Pannova”) with the International Chamber of Commerce. The Request seeks declaratory judgments that Samsung has a license to practice U.S. Patent Nos. 6,954,001, 6,784,557, 6,512,298, and 6,852,616 (“Patents-in-Suit”); damages of at least $15 million for alleged breach of contract; and a declaratory judgment that Panasonic’s assignment of the Patents-in-Suit is null and void. The Request further seeks an order requiring reimbursement to Samsung of all expenses, including attorneys’ fees, incurred in defending against lawsuits that Tessera or its affiliates filed in various jurisdictions. On June 25, 2018, Tessera and Pannova filed a Response to the Request for Arbitration, objecting to the jurisdiction of the Tribunal and denying the merits of Samsung’s claims. Other Litigation Matters The Company and its subsidiaries are involved in litigation matters and claims in the normal course of business. In the past, the Company and its subsidiaries have litigated to enforce their respective patents and other intellectual property rights, to enforce the terms of license agreements, to protect trade secrets, to determine the validity and scope of the proprietary rights of others and to defend itself or its customers against claims of infringement or invalidity. The Company expects it or its subsidiaries will be involved in similar legal proceedings in the future, including proceedings regarding infringement of its patents, and proceedings to ensure proper and full payment of royalties by licensees under the terms of its license agreements. The existing and any future legal actions may harm the Company’s business. For example, legal actions could cause an existing licensee or strategic partner to cease making royalty or other payments to the Company, or to challenge the validity and enforceability of patents owned by the Company’s subsidiaries or the scope of license agreements with the Company’s subsidiaries, and could significantly damage the Company’s relationship with such licensee or strategic partner and, as a result, prevent the adoption of the Company’s other technologies by such licensee or strategic partner. Litigation could also severely disrupt or shut down the business operations of licensees or strategic partners of the Company’s subsidiaries, which in turn would significantly harm ongoing relations with them and cause the Company to lose royalty revenue. The costs associated with legal proceedings are typically high, relatively unpredictable, and not completely within the Company’s control. These costs may be materially higher than expected, which could adversely affect the Company’s operating results and lead to volatility in the price of its common stock. Whether or not determined in the Company’s favor or ultimately settled, litigation diverts managerial, technical, legal, and financial resources from the Company’s business operations. Furthermore, an adverse decision in any of these legal actions could result in a loss of the Company’s proprietary rights, subject the Company to significant liabilities, require the Company to seek licenses from others, limit the value of the Company’s licensed technology or otherwise negatively impact the Company’s stock price or its business and consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Segment And Geographic Informat

Segment Reporting [Abstract]
Segment And Geographic Information	SEGMENT AND GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION The Company reports its financial results within two reportable segments: (1) Product Licensing and (2) Semiconductor and IP Licensing. There are certain corporate overhead costs that are not allocated to these reportable segments because these operating amounts are not considered in evaluating the operating performance of the Company’s business segments. The Chief Executive Officer is also the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) as defined by the authoritative guidance on segment reporting. The Product Licensing segment, including the Company's DTS and FotoNation subsidiaries, licenses its technologies and intellectual property related to audio, digital radio and imaging solutions under the brands DTS, HD Radio and FotoNation. The Product Licensing solutions typically include the delivery of software or hardware-based solutions, combined with various other intellectual property, including know how, patents, trademarks, and copyrights. Product Licensing represents revenue derived primarily from the consumer electronics market and related applications servicing the home, automotive and mobile markets. The Semiconductor and IP Licensing segment develops and licenses semiconductor technologies and IP to manufacturers, foundries, subcontract assemblers and others. The segment includes revenue generated from the technology and IP portfolios of Tessera, Inc., Invensas and Invensas Bonding Technologies, Inc. (formally Ziptronix, Inc.). Tessera, Inc. pioneered chip-scale packaging solutions. Invensas develops advanced semiconductor packaging and 3D interconnect solutions, including wafer bonding solutions, for applications such as smartphones, tablets, laptops, PCs, data centers and automobiles. The Company expands its technology and IP offerings in this segment through a combination of internal R&D and acquisitions. The Company also provides engineering services to customers in the form of technology demonstrations and technology transfers to assist their evaluation and adoption of the Company's technologies. Through the Company’s technology transfer service, the Company provides detailed documentation outlining design guidelines, process specifications, recommended equipment and process parameters as well as hands-on engineering support to assist its licensees in bringing up and qualifying its technologies at their facilities. This service allows licensees to readily leverage the Company’s years of experience and expertise in direct and hybrid bonding. The Company does not identify or allocate assets by reportable segment, nor does the CODM evaluate reportable segments using discrete asset information. Reportable segments do not record inter-segment revenue and accordingly there are none to report. The Company does not allocate other income and expense to reportable segments. Although the CODM uses operating income to evaluate reportable segments, operating costs included in one segment may benefit other segments. The following table sets forth the Company’s segment revenue, operating expenses and operating income (loss) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 (in thousands): Three Months Ended, Six Months Ended June 30, 2018 June 30, 2017 June 30, 2018 June 30, 2017 Revenue: Product licensing segment $ 51,161 $ 46,362 $ 104,377 $ 74,063 Semiconductor and IP licensing segment 12,793 44,960 25,109 84,514 Total revenue 63,954 91,322 129,486 158,577 Operating expenses: Product licensing segment 42,142 42,619 86,036 85,801 Semiconductor and IP licensing segment 18,942 21,374 38,369 44,137 Unallocated operating expenses (1) 30,476 39,829 65,178 87,447 Total operating expenses 91,560 103,822 189,583 217,385 Operating income (loss): Product licensing segment 9,019 3,743 18,341 (11,738 ) Semiconductor and IP licensing segment (6,149 ) 23,586 (13,260 ) 40,377 Unallocated operating expenses (1) (30,476 ) (39,829 ) (65,178 ) (87,447 ) Total operating loss $ (27,606 ) $ (12,500 ) $ (60,097 ) $ (58,808 ) (1) Unallocated operating expenses consist primarily of general and administrative expenses, such as administration, human resources, finance, information technology, corporation development and procurement. These expenses are not allocated because these amounts are not considered in evaluating the operating performance of the Company’s business segments. A significant portion of the Company’s revenue is derived from licensees headquartered outside of the U.S., principally in Asia, and it is expected that this revenue will continue to account for a significant portion of total revenue in future periods. The table below lists the geographic revenue for the periods indicated (in thousands): Three Months Ended, Six Months Ended, June 30, 2018 June 30, 2017 June 30, 2018 June 30, 2017 Japan $ 18,199 29 % $ 20,169 22 % $ 37,543 29 % $ 34,059 22 % Korea 17,459 27 14,103 15 31,887 25 20,990 13 U.S. 13,952 22 33,680 37 25,579 20 67,086 42 Europe and Middle East 10,925 17 5,070 6 16,134 12 6,790 4 China 1,491 2 3,599 4 15,635 12 6,653 4 Other 1,928 3 14,701 16 2,708 2 22,999 15 $ 63,954 100 % $ 91,322 100 % $ 129,486 100 % $ 158,577 100 % For the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, there were one and three customers, respectively, that each accounted for 10% or more of total revenue.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Basis of Accounting	The accompanying interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2018 and 2017, and for the three and six months then ended, have been prepared by the Company in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) in the United States (“U.S.”) for interim financial information. The amounts as of December 31, 2017 have been derived from the Company’s annual audited financial statements. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted in accordance with such rules and regulations. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments necessary (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) to state fairly the financial position of the Company and its results of operations and cash flows as of and for the periods presented. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual audited financial statements and notes thereto as of and for the year ended December 31, 2017, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017, filed on February 23, 2018 (the “Form 10-K”).
Reclassification	Reclassification Certain reclassifications have been made to prior period balances in order to conform to the current period’s presentation.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements	Recent Accounting Pronouncements In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, " Leases" (Topic 842) (ASU 2016-02), which generally requires companies to recognize operating and financing lease liabilities and corresponding right-of-use assets on the balance sheet. This guidance will be effective for the Company in the first quarter of 2019, and early adoption is permitted. The Company will adopt the new standard effective January 1, 2019. While the Company continues to evaluate the effect of adopting this guidance on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures, it is expected the Company's operating leases, as disclosed in Note 13 - " Commitments and Contingencies ," will be subject to the new standard. In the second quarter of 2018, the Company established an implementation team to develop a multi-phase plan to assess the Company’s leasing arrangements, as well as any changes to accounting policies, processes or systems necessary to adopt the requirements of the new standard. The Company is evaluating the full impact this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements, and expects that adoption will result in increases in lease-related Right-of-Use assets and liabilities on its consolidated balance sheet. In September 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments” (“ASU 2016-13”), which introduces an approach based on expected losses to estimate credit losses on certain types of financial instruments. It also modifies the impairment model for available-for-sale debt securities and provides for a simplified accounting model for purchased financial assets with credit deterioration since their origination. ASU 2016-13 is effective for the Company in the first quarter of the year ending December 31, 2020. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of the adoption of this new standard on its consolidated financial statements. Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements In August 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-15, “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments.” This ASU addresses the classification of certain specific cash flow issues including debt prepayment or extinguishment costs, settlement of certain debt instruments, contingent consideration payments made after a business combination, proceeds from the settlement of certain insurance claims and distributions received from equity method investees. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted this standard as of January 1, 2018. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements. In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-16, "Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory." This ASU requires entities to recognize the income tax consequences of an intra-entity transfer of an asset other than inventory when the transfer occurs. For public entities, this ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. The Company adopted this standard as of January 1, 2018 on a prospective basis. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements. In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-09, “Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718) Scope of Modification Accounting.” ASU 2017-09 provides guidance about which changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment awarded require an entity to apply modification accounting. The standard is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted the standard as of January 1, 2018 on a prospective basis. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements. In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09 (Topic 606) "Revenue from Contracts with Customers." Topic 606 supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605 “Revenue Recognition” (Topic 605), and requires entities to recognize revenue when control of goods or services is transferred to customers at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for the goods or services. Under the prior standard, licensing companies generally reported revenue from per-unit royalty based arrangements one quarter in arrears. Under the new guidance, the Company estimates per-unit royalty-based revenue prior to receiving customer royalty reports. The Company also expects the standard to have a significant impact on the timing of revenue recognition associated with its fixed fee and minimum guarantee arrangements, as a majority of such revenue which had previously been recognized over the license term is expected to be recognized at the inception of the license term. On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted the new standard using the modified retrospective method, under which the Company recorded a $224 million cumulative net of tax adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings on January 1, 2018. The adjustment was determined by measuring the impact of the new standard on existing contracts that were not completed as of December 31, 2017. Prior period comparative information has not been restated and continues to be reported under Topic 605 in effect for those periods. This new standard had a material impact on the Company’s revenue and its consolidated statement of operations and balance sheet as of and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, and is expected to have a material impact on an ongoing basis, with no impact on the timing of customer billings or on cash flows. See “Note 3 - Revenue " for further discussio
Revenue Recognition	Practical Expedients The Company expenses sales commissions when incurred because the amortization period generally would have been one year or less. In addition, sales commissions have historically not been a significant expense and are not contemplated to be significant in the future. Sales commissions are recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statement of operations. Contract Balances Unbilled Contracts Receivable Timing of revenue recognition may differ significantly from the timing of invoicing to customers. Accounts receivable, net, include amounts billed and currently due from customers. Unbilled contracts receivable represent unbilled amounts expected to be received from customers in future periods, where the revenue recognized to date (or cumulative adjustments to retained earnings in the initial period of adopting Topic 606) exceeds the amount billed, and right to payment is subject to the underlying contractual terms. Unbilled contracts receivable amounts may not exceed their net realizable value and are classified as long-term assets if the payments are expected to be received more than one year from the reporting date. Deferred Revenue Deferred revenue includes payments made by licensees for which the corresponding performance obligations have not yet been fully satisfied by the Company and typically arises where performance obligations are satisfied over time. Revenue Recognition The Company derives its revenue primarily from royalty and license fees for rights to use the Company’s intellectual property and technologies (“IP”). Revenue is recognized upon transfer of control of promised products, services or IP rights to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for those products, services or licensing of the IP rights. Certain licensees have entered into fixed fee or minimum guarantee arrangements, whereby licensees pay a fixed fee for the right to incorporate the Company's technology in the licensee's products over the license term. In arrangements with a minimum guarantee, the fixed fee component corresponds to a minimum number of units or dollars that the customer must produce or pay, with additional per-unit fees for any units or dollars exceeding the minimum. In most cases, the customer pays the fixed license fee in specified installments over the license term. For these agreements, the Company recognizes the full fixed fee as revenue at the beginning of the license term, when the licensee has the right to use the IP and begins to benefit from the license. If the contract term of a fixed fee or minimum guarantee arrangement is longer than one year, the Company also considers the scheduled payment arrangements to determine whether a significant financing component exists. In general, if the payment arrangements extend beyond the initial twelve months of the contract, the Company treats a portion of the payments as a significant financing component. When the payments are expected to be received within one year or less, the Company does not adjust the promised amount of consideration for the effects of a financing component. The discount rate used for each arrangement reflects the rate that would be used in a separate financing transaction between the Company and the licensee at contract inception, and takes into account the credit characteristics of the licensee and market interest rates as of the date of the agreement. As such, the amount of fixed fee revenue recognized at the beginning of the license term will be reduced by the calculated financing component. As payments are received from the licensee, the Company recognizes a portion of the financing component as interest income, reported as other income and expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. For certain licensees, royalty revenues are generated based on a licensee's production or shipment of licensed products incorporating the Company’s IP, technologies or software. Licensees with a per-unit arrangement pay a per-unit royalty for each product manufactured or sold, as set forth in its license agreement. Licensees generally report manufacturing or sales information in the quarter subsequent to when the shipment activity takes place. The Company estimates the royalties earned each quarter based on its forecast of manufacturing and sales activity incurred by its licensees in that quarter. Any differences between actual royalties owed by a licensee and the Company’s quarterly estimate are recognized in the following quarter, when the licensee’s royalty report is received. Estimating licensees’ quarterly royalties prior to receiving the royalty reports requires the Company to make significant assumptions and judgments that could have a material impact on the amount of revenue it reports on a quarterly basis. The Company actively monitors and enforces its IP, including seeking appropriate compensation from customers that have under-reported royalties owed under a license agreement and from third parties that utilize the Company’s intellectual property without a license. As a result of these activities, the Company may, from time to time, recognize revenue from payments resulting from periodic compliance audits of licensees for underreporting royalties incurred in prior periods, as part of a settlement of a patent infringement dispute, or legal judgments from a license dispute. These recoveries and settlements may cause revenue to be higher than expected during a particular reporting period and such recoveries may not occur in subsequent periods. The Company recognizes revenue from recoveries when a binding agreement has been executed and the Company concludes collection under that agreement is likely. In some instances, the Company may enter into license agreements that contain multiple performance obligations that include engineering services in addition to a technology or software license. For such arrangements where all components are capable of being distinct and accounted for as separate performance obligations, the Company allocates revenue to each performance obligation based on its relative standalone selling price. The Company generally determines standalone selling prices based on the prices ordinarily charged to customers, or in some cases by applying a reasonable cost-plus margin. The consideration for engineering services is recognized as the underlying performance obligations are satisfied. Generally, the Company satisfies performance obligations over time and therefore recognizes revenue over time by measuring the progress toward completion of the performance obligation at each reporting period. Revenue is recognized gross of withholding taxes that are remitted directly by the Company's licensees directly to a local tax authority.
