Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements Disclosure [Text Block] | 1. Organization and Business PDL manages a portfolio of patents and royalty assets, consisting of its Queen et al. patents, license agreements with various biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies, and royalty and other assets acquired. To acquire new income generating assets, PDL provides non-dilutive growth capital and financing solutions to late-stage public and private healthcare companies and offers immediate financial monetization of royalty streams to companies, academic institutions, and inventors. PDL has committed over $1 billion and funded approximately $937 million in these investments to date. PDL evaluates its investments based on the quality of the income generating assets and potential returns on investment. PDL is currently focused on acquiring new income generating assets, the management of its intellectual property and income generating assets and maximizing value for its stockholders. The Company was formerly known as Protein Design Labs, Inc. and changed its name to PDL BioPharma, Inc. in 2006. PDL was founded in 1986 and is headquartered in Incline Village, Nevada. PDL pioneered the humanization of monoclonal antibodies and, by doing so, enabled the discovery of a new generation of targeted treatments for cancer and immunologic diseases for which it receives significant royalty revenue. In the year ended December 31, 2015 , the Company received Queen et al. patent royalties on sales of the ten humanized antibody products listed below, all of which are currently approved for use by the FDA and other regulatory agencies outside the United States. Licensee Product Names Genentech Avastin Herceptin Xolair Lucentis Perjeta Kadcyla Biogen Tysabri Chugai Actemra Roche Gazyva Takeda Entyvio Prior to December 2008, the Company's business included biotechnology operations, which were focused on the discovery and development of novel antibodies that the Company spun off to Facet. In April 2010, Abbott Laboratories acquired Facet and later renamed the company Abbott Biotherapeutics Corp. In January 2013, Abbott Biotherapeutics, Corp. was renamed AbbVie Biotherapeutics, Inc. and spun off from Abbott as a subsidiary of AbbVie Inc. |

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Presentation The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and under the rules and regulations of the SEC. The financial statements include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) that management of PDL believes are necessary for a fair presentation of the periods presented. Principles of Consolidation The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, QHP Royalty Sub LLC. All material intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated in consolidation. Management Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the use of management’s estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Segment Disclosures Our chief operating decision-maker consists of our executive management. Our chief operating decision-maker reviews our operating results and operating plans and makes resource allocation decisions on a company-wide basis; therefore, we operate as one segment. Cash Equivalents We consider all highly liquid investments with initial maturities of three months or less at the date of purchase to be cash equivalents. We place our cash and cash equivalents with high credit quality financial institutions and, by policy, limit the amount of credit exposure in any one financial instrument. Investments The Company's investments include cost method investments and available-for-sale investments in certain publicly traded companies and privately-held companies. Cost method is used for investments over which the Company does not have the ability to exercise significant influence. Gains or losses are realized when such investments are sold or when dividends are declared or payments are received. See Note 7. Available-for-sale securities are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses recorded in "Accumulated other comprehensive income." See Note 5. Fair Value Measurements The fair value of our financial instruments are estimates of the amounts that would be received if we were to sell an asset or we paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date or exit price. The assets and liabilities are categorized and disclosed in one of the following three categories: Level 1 – based on quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities; Level 2 – based on quoted market prices for similar assets and liabilities, using observable market based inputs or unobservable market based inputs corroborated by market data, and Level 3 – based on unobservable inputs using management’s best estimate and assumptions when inputs are unavailable. Notes Receivable and Other Long-Term Receivables We account for our notes receivable at both amortized cost, net of unamortized origination fees, if any, and as dependent on collateral when the loan for which repayment is expected to be provided solely by the underlying collateral. For loans accounted for at their amortized cost, related fees and costs are recorded net of any amounts reimbursed. Interest is accreted or accrued to "Interest revenue" using the effective interest method. When and if supplemental royalties are received from certain of these notes and other long-term receivables, an adjustment to the estimated effective interest rate is effected prospectively. We evaluate the collectability of both interest and principal for each note receivable and loan to determine whether it is impaired. A note receivable or loan is considered to be impaired when, based on current information and events, we determine it is probable that we will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the existing contractual terms. When a note receivable or loan is considered to be impaired, the amount of loss is calculated by comparing the carrying value of the financial asset to the value determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at the loan's effective interest rate or to the estimated fair value of the underlying collateral, less costs to sell, if the loan is collateralized and we expect repayment to be provided solely by the collateral. Impairment assessments require significant judgments and are based on significant assumptions related to the borrower's credit risk, financial performance, expected sales, and fair value of the collateral. Convertible Notes The Company issued our Series 2012 Notes, May 2015 Notes and our February 2018 Notes with a net share settlement feature, meaning that upon any conversion, the principal amount will be settled in cash and the remaining amount, if any, will be settled in shares of our common stock. In accordance with accounting guidance for convertible debt instruments that may be settled in cash or other assets on conversion, we separated the principal balance between the fair value of the liability component and the common stock conversion feature using a market interest rate for a similar nonconvertible instrument at the date of issuance. Queen et al. Royalty Revenues Under the Company's Queen at al. Patent license agreements, the Company receives royalty payments based upon our licensees’ net sales of covered products. Generally, under these agreements we receive royalty reports from our licensees approximately one quarter in arrears, that is, generally in the second month of the quarter after the licensee has sold the royalty-bearing product. We recognize royalty revenues when we can reliably estimate such amounts and collectability is reasonably assured. As such, we generally recognize royalty revenues in the quarter reported to us by our licensees, that is, royalty revenues are generally recognized one quarter following the quarter in which sales by our licensees occurred. Under this accounting policy, the royalty revenues we report are not based upon our estimates and such royalty revenues are typically reported in the same period in which we receive payment from our licensees. The Company also received annual maintenance fees from licensees of our Queen et al. patents prior to patent expiry as well as periodic milestone payments. We had no performance obligations with respect to such fees. Maintenance fees were recognized as they became due and when payment was reasonably assured. Total annual maintenance and milestone payments in each of the last several years have been less than 1% of total revenue. Although the last of our Queen et al. patents expired in December 2014, we expect to receive royalties beyond expiration based on the terms of our licenses and our legal settlements. We do not expect to receive any meaningful revenue from our Queen et al. patents beyond the first quarter of 2016. In the second quarter of 2016, the Company's revenues are likely to materially decrease after the conclusion of receiving payments from these Queen et al. patents license agreements, which accounted for 82% of our 2015 revenue. The continued success of the Company will become more dependent on the timing and our ability to acquire new income generating assets in order to provide recurring revenues going forward and to support the Company's business model and ability to pay dividends. Royalty Rights - At Fair Value Currently, we have elected to account for our investments in royalty rights at fair value with changes in fair value presented in earnings. The fair value of the investments in royalty rights is determined by using a discounted cash flow analysis related to the expected future cash flows to be received. These assets are classified as Level 3 assets within the fair value hierarchy as our valuation estimates utilize significant unobservable inputs, including estimates as to the probability and timing of future sales of the related products. Transaction-related fees and costs are expensed as incurred. The changes in the estimated fair value from investments in royalty rights along with cash receipts each reporting period are presented together on our Consolidated Statements of Income as a component of revenue under the caption, “Royalty rights - change in fair value.” Foreign Currency Hedging We enter into foreign currency hedges to manage exposures arising in the normal course of business and not for speculative purposes. We hedge certain Euro-denominated currency exposures related to royalties associated with our licensees’ product sales with Euro forward contracts. In general, these contracts are intended to offset the underlying Euro market risk in our royalty revenues. The last of these contracts expires in the first quarter of 2016. We designate foreign currency exchange contracts used to hedge royalty revenues based on underlying Euro-denominated licensee product sales as cash flow hedges. At the inception of each hedging relationship and on a quarterly basis, we assess the hedge effectiveness. The fair value of the Euro contracts is estimated using pricing models with readily observable inputs from actively quoted markets and is disclosed on a gross basis. The aggregate unrealized gains or losses, net of tax, on the effective component of the hedge is recorded in stockholders’ equity as "Accumulated other comprehensive income." Realized gains or losses on cash flow hedges are recognized as an adjustment to royalty revenue in the same period that the hedged transaction impacts earnings as royalty revenue. Any gain or loss on the ineffective portion of our hedge contracts is reported in "Interest and other income, net" in the period the ineffectiveness occurs. Income Taxes The provision for income taxes is determined using the asset and liability approach. Tax laws require items to be included in tax filings at different times than the items are reflected in the financial statements. A current liability is recognized for the estimated taxes payable for the current year. Deferred taxes represent the future tax consequences expected to occur when the reported amounts of assets and liabilities are recovered or paid. Deferred taxes are adjusted for enacted changes in tax rates and tax laws. Valuation allowances are recorded to reduce deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that a tax benefit will not be realized. The Company recognizes tax benefits from uncertain tax positions only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such positions are then measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. See Note 16, “Income Taxes” of this Form 10-K for additional information. Comprehensive Income (Loss) Comprehensive income (loss) comprises net income adjusted for other comprehensive income (loss), using the specific identification method, which includes the changes in unrealized gains and losses on cash flow hedges and changes in unrealized gains and losses on our investments in available-for-sale securities, all net of tax, which are excluded from our net income. Property and Equipment Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization were computed using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives: Leasehold improvements Shorter of asset life or term of lease Computer and office equipment 3 years Furniture and fixtures 7 years Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers . The updated standard will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in GAAP when it becomes effective and permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. In August 2015, the FASB issued an update to defer the effective date of this update by one year. The updated standard becomes effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal year 2018, but allows the Company to adopt the standard one year earlier if it so chooses. The Company has not yet selected a transition method and is currently evaluating the effect that the updated standard will have on its Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures, and is therefore unable to determine the impact on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements. In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs , which requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. This ASU requires retrospective adoption and will be effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of 2016. The adoption of this ASU is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements. In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-17, Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes , which amends existing guidance on income taxes to require the classification of all deferred tax assets and liabilities as non-current on the balance sheet. The Company is required to adopt this ASU no later than January 1, 2018, with early adoption permitted, and the guidance may be applied either prospectively or retrospectively. The Company does not expect this ASU to have a material impact on its Consolidated Financial Statements. On January 5, 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-01, Financial Instruments - Overall: Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities . The updated guidance enhances the reporting model for financial instruments, which includes amendments to address aspects of recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure. The amendment to the standard is effective for the Company beginning on June 1, 2018. While the Company is currently assessing the impact of the new standard, it does not expect this new guidance to have a material impact on its Consolidated Financial Statements. |

Common equivalent shares used in the computation of net income per diluted share include shares that may be issued under our stock options and restricted stock awards, the Series 2012 Notes and the May 2015 Notes on a weighted-average basis for the period that the notes were outstanding, including the effect of adding back interest expense and the underlying shares using the if converted method. In the first quarter of 2012, $179.0 million aggregate principal of the February 2015 Notes was exchanged for the Series 2012 Notes, and in the third quarter of 2013, $1.0 million aggregate principal of the February 2015 Notes was exchanged for the Series 2012 Notes, and the February 2015 Notes were retired, in the first quarter of 2014, $131.7 million aggregate principal of the Series 2012 Notes was retired in a privately negotiated exchange and purchase agreements, and in the fourth quarter of 2014, the Company entered into a privately negotiated exchange agreement under which it retired approximately $26.0 million in principal of the outstanding Series 2012 Notes, and, in the first quarter of 2015, the Company completed the retirement of the remaining $22.3 million of aggregate principal of its Series 2012 Notes. In the second quarter of 2015, the Company completed the retirement of the remaining $155.1 million of aggregate principal of its May 2015 Notes. Concurrently with the retirement of the May 2015 Notes, we exercised our purchased call options and received 5.2 million of PDL's common shares, which was the amount equal to the number of shares required to be delivered by us to the note holders for the excess conversion value (Note 9). In May 2011, we issued the May 2015 Notes, and in January and February 2012 we issued the Series 2012 Notes. The Series 2012 Notes and May 2015 Notes are net share settled, with the principal amount settled in cash and the excess settled in our common stock. The weighted-average share adjustments related to the Series 2012 Notes, May 2015 Notes and February 2018 Notes, shown in the table above, include the shares issuable in respect of such excess. May 2015 Notes Purchase Call Option and Warrant Potential Dilution We excluded from our calculation of net income per diluted share 3.0 million , zero and 21.1 million shares for the years ended December 31, 2015 , 2014 , and 2013 , for warrants issued in 2011, because the exercise price of the warrants exceeded the VWAP of our common stock and conversion of the underlying May 2015 Notes is not assumed, no stock would be issuable upon conversion. Our purchased call options, issued in 2011, will always be anti-dilutive and therefore zero , 26.6 million and 24.8 million shares were excluded from our calculations of net income per diluted share for the years ended December 31, 2015 , 2014 and 2013 , respectively, because they have no effect on diluted net income per share. For information related to the conversion rates on our convertible debt, see Note 11. February 2018 Notes Purchase Call Option and Warrant Potential Dilution We excluded from our calculation of net income per diluted share 23.8 million and 29.0 million shares for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 , for warrants issued in February 2014, because the exercise price of the warrants exceeded the VWAP of our common stock and conversion of the underlying February 2018 Notes is not assumed, no stock would be issuable upon conversion. These securities could be dilutive in future periods. Our purchased call options, issued in February 2014, will always be anti-dilutive and therefore 26.9 million and 32.7 million shares were excluded from our calculation of net income per diluted share for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 , because they have no effect on diluted net income per share. For information related to the conversion rates on our convertible debt, see Note 11. Anti-Dilutive Effect of Stock Options and Restricted Stock Awards For the years ended December 31, 2015 , 2014 and 2013 , we excluded approximately 41,000 , 35,000 and 115,000 shares underlying outstanding stock options, respectively, calculated on a weighted-average basis, from our net income per diluted share calculations because their effect was anti-dilutive. For the years ended December 31, 2015 , 2014 and 2013 , we excluded approximately 450,000 , zero , and zero shares, respectively, underlying restricted stock awards, calculated on a weighted-average basis, from our net income per diluted share calculations because their effect was anti-dilutive. |

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] | |
Fair Value Measurements | 4. Fair Value Measurements The fair value of our financial instruments are estimates of the amounts that would be received if we were to sell an asset or pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date or exit price. The following table presents the fair value of our financial instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis by level of input within the fair value hierarchy defined in Note 2: December 31, 2015 December 31, 2014 (In thousands) Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Financial assets: Money market funds $ 94,801 $ — $ — $ 94,801 $ 221,792 $ — $ — $ 221,792 Corporate securities — 1,469 — 1,469 — 2,310 — 2,310 Foreign currency hedge contracts — 2,802 — 2,802 — 4,069 — 4,069 Warrants — 984 — 984 — — — — Royalty rights - at fair value — — 399,204 399,204 — — 259,244 259,244 Total $ 94,801 $ 5,255 $ 399,204 $ 499,260 $ 221,792 $ 6,379 $ 259,244 $ 487,415 There have been no transfers between levels during the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 . The Company recognizes transfers between levels on the date of the event or change in circumstances that caused the transfer. Corporate Securities Corporate securities consist primarily of U.S. corporate equity holdings. The fair value of corporate securities is estimated using recently executed transactions or market quoted prices, where observable. Independent pricing sources are also used for valuation. Royalty Rights - At Fair Value Depomed Royalty Agreement On October 18, 2013, PDL entered into the Depomed Royalty Agreement, whereby the Company acquired the rights to receive royalties and milestones payable on sales of Type 2 diabetes products licensed by Depomed in exchange for a $240.5 million cash payment. Total arrangement consideration was $241.3 million , which was comprised of the $240.5 million cash payment to Depomed and $0.8 million in transaction costs. The rights acquired include Depomed’s royalty and milestone payments accruing from and after October 1, 2013: (a) from Santarus (which was subsequently acquired by Salix, which itself was recently acquired by Valeant Pharmaceuticals) with respect to sales of Glumetza (metformin HCL extended-release tablets) in the United States; (b) from Merck with respect to sales of Janumet ® XR (sitagliptin and metformin HCL extended-release tablets); (c) from Janssen Pharmaceutica N.V. with respect to potential future development milestones and sales of its investigational fixed-dose combination of Invokana® (canagliflozin) and extended-release metformin tablets; (d) from Boehringer Ingelheim with respect to potential future development milestones and sales of the investigational fixed-dose combinations of drugs and extended-release metformin subject to Depomed’s license agreement with Boehringer Ingelheim; and (e) from LG Life Sciences and Valeant Pharmaceuticals for sales of extended-release metformin tablets in Korea and Canada, respectively. Under the terms of the Depomed Royalty Agreement, the Company receives all royalty and milestone payments due under license agreements between Depomed and its licensees until the Company has received payments equal to two times the cash payment it made to Depomed, after which all net payments received by Depomed will be shared evenly between the Company and Depomed. The Depomed Royalty Agreement terminates on the third anniversary following the date upon which the later of the following occurs: (a) October 25, 2021, or (b) at such time as no royalty payments remain payable under any license agreement and each of the license agreements has expired by its terms. As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company determined that its royalty purchase interest in Depo DR Sub represented a variable interest in a variable interest entity. However, the Company does not have the power to direct the activities of Depo DR Sub that most significantly impact Depo DR Sub's economic performance and is not the primary beneficiary of Depo DR Sub; therefore, Depo DR Sub is not subject to consolidation by the Company. The asset acquired represents a single unit of accounting. The fair value of the asset acquired was determined by using a discounted cash flow analysis related to the expected future cash flows to be generated by each licensed product. This asset is classified as a Level 3 asset within the fair value hierarchy, as our valuation utilized significant unobservable inputs, including estimates as to the probability and timing of future commercialization for products not yet approved by the FDA or other regulatory agencies. The discounted cash flows are based upon expected royalties from sales of licensed products over a seven -year period. The discount rates utilized range from approximately 21% to 25% . Significant judgment is required in selecting appropriate discount rates. At December 31, 2015, an evaluation was performed to assess those rates and general market conditions potentially affecting the fair market value. Should these discount rates increase or decrease by 2.5%, the fair value of the asset could decrease by $7.7 million or increase by $8.7 million, respectively. A third-party expert was engaged to help management develop its original estimate of the expected future cash flows. The fair value of the asset is subject to variation should those cash flows vary significantly from those estimates. We periodically assess the expected future cash flows and to the extent such payments are greater or less than our initial estimates, or the timing of such payments is materially different than our original estimates, we will adjust the estimated fair value of the asset. In February 2016, certain manufacturers of generic equivalents to Glumetza started to enter the market. Our current expected future cash flows anticipate a reduction in future cash flows of Glumetza as a result of the generic competition in 2016. Should the expected royalties increase or decrease by 2.5%, the fair value of the asset could increase by $4.1 million or decrease by $3.9 million, respectively. When PDL acquired the Depomed royalties, Glumetza was marketed by Santarus. In January 2014, Salix acquired Santarus and assumed responsibility for commercializing Glumetza, which was generally perceived to be a positive development because of Salix's larger sales force and track record in the successful commercialization of therapies. In late 2014, Salix made a number of disclosures relating to an excess of supply at the distribution level of Glumetza and other drugs that it commercialized, the practices leading to this excess of supply which were under review by Salix's audit committee in relation to the related accounting practices. Because of these disclosures and PDL's lack of direct access to information as to the levels of inventory of Glumetza in the distribution channels, PDL commenced a review of all public statements by Salix, publicly available historical third-party prescription data, analyst reports and other relevant data sources. PDL also engaged a third-party expert to specifically assess estimated inventory levels of Glumetza in the distribution channel and to ascertain the potential effects those inventory levels may have on expected future cash flows. Salix was acquired by Valeant Pharmaceuticals in early April 2015. On June 18, 2015, Valeant Pharmaceuticals implemented a price increase on Glumetza and implemented an additional price increase on July 31, 2015. As of December 31, 2015, our discounted cash flow analysis reflects our expectations as to the amount and timing of future cash flows up to the valuation date. We will monitor whether the acquisition or price increase by Valeant Pharmaceuticals has any effect on sales of Glumetza and thus royalties on such sales paid to PDL. Due to the uncertainty around Valeant's marketing and pricing strategy, as well as the near-term generic competition, we may not be able to fully assess the impact of the acquisition or price increase on sales of Glumetza and thus royalties on such sales paid to PDL. PDL exercised its audit right under the Depomed Royalty Agreement with respect to the Glumetza royalties in January 2016 and expects to conclude the audit in the second half of 2016. As of December 31, 2015 , the fair value of the asset acquired as reported in our Consolidated Balance Sheets was $191.9 million and the maximum loss exposure was $191.9 million . VB Royalty Agreement On June 26, 2014, PDL entered into the VB Royalty Agreement, whereby VB conveyed to the Company the right to receive royalties payable on sales of a spinal implant that has received PMA, in exchange for a $15.5 million cash payment, less fees. The royalty rights acquired includes royalties accruing from and after April 1, 2014. Under the terms of the VB Royalty Agreement, the Company receives all royalty payments due to VB pursuant to certain technology transfer agreements between VB and Paradigm Spine until the Company has received payments equal to two and three tenths times the cash payment made to VB, after which all rights to receive royalties will be returned to VB. VB may repurchase the royalty right at any time on or before June 26, 2018, for a specified amount. The chief executive officer of Paradigm Spine is one of the owners of VB. The Paradigm Spine Credit Agreement and the VB Royalty Agreement were negotiated separately. The fair value of the royalty right at December 31, 2015, was determined by using a discounted cash flow analysis related to the expected future cash flows to be received. This asset is classified as a Level 3 asset, as our valuation utilized significant unobservable inputs, including estimates as to the probability and timing of future sales of the licensed product. The discounted cash flow was based upon expected royalties from sales of licensed product over an eight -year period. The discount rate utilized was approximately 17.5% . Significant judgment is required in selecting the appropriate discount rate. Should this discount rate increase or decrease by 2.5%, the fair value of this asset could decrease by $1.3 million or increase by $1.4 million, respectively. Should the expected royalties increase or decrease by 2.5%, the fair value of the asset could increase by $0.4 million or decrease by $0.4 million, respectively. A third-party expert was engaged to assist management with the development of its estimate of the expected future cash flows, when deemed necessary. The fair value of the asset is subject to variation should those cash flows vary significantly from our estimates. At each reporting period, an evaluation is performed to assess those estimates, discount rates utilized and general market conditions affecting fair market value. As of December 31, 2015 , the fair value of the asset acquired as reported in our Consolidated Balance Sheets was $17.1 million and the maximum loss exposure was $17.1 million . U-M Royalty Agreement On November 6, 2014, PDL acquired a portion of all royalty payments of the U-M’s worldwide royalty interest in Cerdelga (eliglustat) for $65.6 million . Under the terms of the Michigan Royalty Agreement, PDL will receive 75% of all royalty payments due under U-M’s license agreement with Genzyme until expiration of the licensed patents, excluding any patent term extension. Cerdelga, an oral therapy for adult patients with Gaucher disease type 1, was developed by Genzyme, a Sanofi company. Cerdelga was approved in the United States on August 19, 2014 and in the European Union on January 22, 2015. In addition, marketing applications for Cerdelga are under review by other regulatory authorities. The fair value of the royalty right at December 31, 2015, was determined by using a discounted cash flow analysis related to the expected future cash flows to be received. This asset is classified as a Level 3 asset, as our valuation utilized significant unobservable inputs, including estimates as to the probability and timing of future sales of the licensed product. The discounted cash flow was based upon expected royalties from sales of licensed product over a seven -year period. The discount rate utilized was approximately 12.8% . Significant judgment is required in selecting the appropriate discount rate. Should this discount rate increase or decrease by 2.5%, the fair value of this asset could decrease by $5.8 million or increase by $6.6 million, respectively. Should the expected royalties increase or decrease by 2.5%, the fair value of the asset could increase by $1.8 million or decrease by $1.8 million, respectively. A third-party expert is engaged to assist management with the development of its estimate of the expected future cash flows, when deemed necessary. The fair value of the asset is subject to variation should those cash flows vary significantly from our estimates. The fair value of the asset is subject to variation should those cash flows vary significantly from our estimates. At each reporting period, an evaluation of those estimates, discount rates utilized and general market conditions affecting fair market value. As of December 31, 2015, the fair value of the asset acquired as reported in our Consolidated Balance Sheets was $70.2 million and the maximum loss exposure was $70.2 million . ARIAD Royalty Agreement On July 28, 2015, PDL entered into the ARIAD Royalty Agreement, whereby the Company acquired the rights to receive royalties payable from ARIAD's net revenues generated by the sale, distribution or other use of Iclusig ® (ponatinib), a cancer medicine for the treatment of adult patients with chronic myeloid leukemia, in exchange for up to $200.0 million in cash payments. The purchase price of $100.0 million is payable in two tranches of $50.0 million each, with the first tranche funded on the closing date and the second tranche to be funded on the 12-month anniversary of the closing date. The ARIAD Royalty Agreement provides ARIAD with an option to draw up to an additional $100.0 million in up to two draws at any time between the six- and 12-month anniversaries of the closing date. ARIAD may repurchase the royalty rights at any time for a specified amount. Upon the occurrence of certain events, PDL has the right to require ARIAD to repurchase the royalty rights for a specified amount. Under the ARIAD Royalty Agreement, the Company has the right to a make-whole payment from ARIAD if the Company does not receive payments equal to or greater than the amounts funded on or prior to the fifth anniversary of each of the respective fundings. In such case, ARIAD will pay to the Company the difference between the amounts paid to such date by ARIAD (excluding any delinquent fee payments) and the amounts funded by the Company. PDL has elected the fair value option to account for the hybrid instrument in its entirety. Any embedded derivative shall not be separated from the host contract. Under the terms of the ARIAD Royalty Agreement, the Company receives royalty payments at a royalty rate ranging from 2.5% to 7.5% of Iclusig revenue until the first to occur of (i) repurchase of the royalty rights by ARIAD or (ii) December 31, 2033. The annual royalty payments shall not exceed $20.0 million in any fiscal year for the years ended December 31, 2015 through December 31, 2018. If Iclusig revenue does not meet certain agreed-upon projections on an annual basis, PDL is entitled to certain royalty payments from net revenue of another ARIAD product, brigatinib, up to the amount of the shortfall from the projections for the applicable year. The asset acquired pursuant to the ARIAD Royalty Agreement represents a single unit of accounting. The fair value of the royalty right at December 31, 2015, was determined by using a discounted cash flow analysis related to the expected future cash flows to be received. This asset is classified as a Level 3 asset, as our valuation utilized significant unobservable inputs, including estimates as to the probability and timing of future sales of the licensed product. The discounted cash flow was based upon expected royalties from sales of licensed product over a seven -year period. The discount rate utilized was approximately 10.0% . Significant judgment is required in selecting the appropriate discount rate. Should this discount rate increase or decrease by 2.5%, the fair value of this asset could decrease by $8.0 million or increase by $9.2 million, respectively. Should the expected royalties increase or decrease by 2.5%, the fair value of the asset could increase by $1.3 million or decrease by $1.3 million, respectively. A third-party expert is engaged to assist management with the development of its estimate of the expected future cash flows, when deemed necessary. The fair value of the asset is subject to variation should those cash flows vary significantly from our estimates.

As of December 31, 2015, the fair value of the asset acquired as reported in our Consolidated Balance Sheets was $50.0 million and the maximum loss exposure was $50.0 million . AcelRx Royalty Agreement On September 18, 2015, PDL entered into the AcelRx Royalty Agreement with ARPI LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of AcelRx, whereby the Company acquired the rights to receive a portion of the royalties and certain milestone payments on sales of Zalviso ™ (sufentanil sublingual tablet system) in the European Union, Switzerland and Australia by AcelRx's commercial partner, Grünenthal, in exchange for a $65.0 million cash payment. Under the terms of the AcelRx Royalty Agreement, the Company will receive 75% of all royalty payments and 80% of the first four commercial milestone payments due under AcelRx's license agreement with Grünenthal until the earlier to occur of (i) receipt by the Company of payments equal to three times the cash payments made to AcelRx and (ii) the expiration of the licensed patents. Dr. Stephen Hoffman is the President of 10x Capital, Inc., a third-party consultant to the Company, and is also a member of the board of directors of AcelRx. Dr. Hoffman recused himself from the AcelRx board of directors with respect to the entirety of its discussions and considerations of the transaction. Dr. Hoffman is being compensated for his contribution to consummate this transaction by PDL as part of his consulting agreement. PDL concluded Dr. Hoffman is not considered a related party in accordance with FASB ASC 850, Related Party Disclosures and SEC Regulation S-X, Related Party Transactions Which Affect the Financial Statements . As of December 31, 2015, the Company determined that its royalty rights under the agreement with ARPI LLC represented a variable interest in a variable interest entity. However, the Company does not have the power to direct the activities of ARPI LLC that most significantly impact ARPI LLC's economic performance and is not the primary beneficiary of ARPI LLC; therefore, ARPI LLC is not subject to consolidation by the Company.

Avinger Credit and Royalty Agreement On April 18, 2013, PDL entered into the Avinger Credit and Royalty Agreement, under which we made available to Avinger up to $40.0 million (of which only $20.0 million was funded) to be used by Avinger in connection with the commercialization of its lumivascular catheter devices and the development of Avinger's lumivascular atherectomy device. On September 22, 2015, Avinger elected to prepay the note receivable in whole for a payment of $21.4 million in cash. Under the terms of the Avinger Credit and Royalty Agreement, the Company was entitled to receive royalties at a rate of 1.8% on Avinger's net revenues until the note was repaid by Avinger. Upon the repayment of the note receivable, which occurred on September 22, 2015, the royalty rate was reduced to 0.9% , subject to certain minimum payments from the prepayment date until April 2018.

Should this discount rate increase or decrease by 5.0%, the fair value of this asset could decrease by $135,000 or increase by $151,000, respectively. Should the expected royalties increase or decrease by 5%, the fair value of the asset could increase by $127,000 or decrease by $127,000, respectively. Management considered the contractual minimum payments when developing its estimate of the expected future cash flows. The fair value of the asset is subject to variation should those cash flows vary significantly from our estimates. An evaluation of those estimates, discount rates utilized and general market conditions affecting fair market value is performed in each reporting period. As of December 31, 2015, the fair value of the asset acquired as reported in our Consolidated Balance Sheets was $2.5 million and the maximum loss exposure was $2.5 million .

Warrants Warrants consist primarily of purchased call options to buy U.S. corporate equity holdings and derivative assets acquired as part of note receivable investments. The fair value of the warrants is estimated using recently quoted market prices and the Black-Scholes option pricing model.

In some instances the carrying values of certain notes receivable differed from their estimated fair market values. This is generally the result of discount rates used when performing a discounted cash flow for fair value valuation purposes. When deemed necessary we engage a third-party valuation expert to assist in evaluating our investments and the related inputs needed for us to estimate the fair value of certain investments. We determined our notes receivable assets are Level 3 assets as our valuations utilized significant unobservable inputs, including estimates of future revenues, discount rates, expectations about settlement, terminal values and required yield. To provide support for the estimated fair value measurements, we considered forward-looking performance related to the investment and current measures associated with high yield indices, and reviewed the terms and yields of notes placed by specialty finance and venture firms both across industries and in similar sectors. The Wellstat Diagnostics Note Receivable and Credit Agreement, as amended and restated, is secured by all assets and equity interests in Wellstat Diagnostics. In addition, the note is subject to a guaranty from the Wellstat Diagnostics Guarantors. The estimated fair value of the collateral assets was determined by using an asset approach and discounted cash flow model related to the underlying collateral and was adjusted to consider estimated costs to sell the assets. On December 31, 2015, the carrying values of several of our notes receivable differed from their fair value. This is the result of discount rates used when performing a discounted cash flow for fair value valuation purposes. We determined these notes receivable to be Level 3 assets, as our valuations utilized significant unobservable inputs, estimates of future revenues, expectations about settlement and required yield. To provide support for the fair value measurements, we considered forward-looking performance, and current measures associated with high yield and published indices, and reviewed the terms and yields of notes placed by specialty finance and venture firms both across industries and in a similar sector. The fair values of our convertible notes were determined using quoted market pricing or dealer quotes. |

Foreign Currency Hedging | 6. Foreign Currency Hedging We designate the foreign currency exchange contracts used to hedge our royalty revenues based on underlying Euro-denominated sales as cash flow hedges. Euro forward contracts are presented on a net basis on our Consolidated Balance Sheets as we have entered into a netting arrangement with the counterparty. As of December 31, 2015 and 2014 , all outstanding Euro forward contracts and option contracts were classified as cash flow hedges. In January 2012, we modified our existing Euro forward and option contracts related to our licensees’ sales through December 2012 into Euro forward contracts with more favorable rates. Additionally, we entered into a series of Euro forward contracts covering the quarters in which our licensees’ sales occur through December 2014. In October 2014, we entered an additional series of Euro forward contracts covering the quarters in which our licensees' sales occurred through December 2015. During the third quarter of 2012, we reduced our forecasted exposure to the Euro for 2013 royalties. We de-designated and terminated certain forward contracts, due to our determination that certain cash flows under the de-designated contracts were not probable to occur, and recorded a gain of approximately $391,000 to "Interest and other income, net," which was reclassified from other comprehensive income (loss) net of tax effects. The termination of these contracts was effected through a reduction in the notional amount of the original hedge contracts. The notional amounts, Euro exchange rates, fair values of our Euro forward contracts designated as cash flow hedges were as follows: Euro Forward Contracts December 31, 2015 December 31, 2014 (In thousands) (In thousands) Currency Settlement Price ($ per Euro) Type Notional Amount Fair Value Notional Amount Fair Value Euro 1.256 Sell Euro $ — $ — $ 6,000 $ 241 Euro 1.257 Sell Euro — — 15,750 728 Euro 1.259 Sell Euro — — 16,125 752 Euro 1.260 Sell Euro 16,500 2,802 33,000 1,468 Euro 1.270 Sell Euro — — 7,000 377 Euro 1.281 Sell Euro — — 8,000 503 Total $ 16,500 $ 2,802 $ 85,875 $ 4,069 The location and fair values of our Euro forward contracts in our Consolidated Balance Sheets were as follows: December 31, Cash Flow Hedge Location 2015 2014 (In thousands) Euro forward contracts Prepaid and other current assets $ 2,802 $ 3,352 Euro forward contracts Other assets $ — $ 717 Euro forward contracts Accrued liabilities $ — $ — Euro forward contracts Other long-term liabilities $ — $ — The effect of our derivative instruments in our Consolidated Statements of Income and our Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income were as follows: Year Ended December 31, 2015 2014 2013 (In thousands) Net gain (loss) recognized in OCI, net of tax (1) $ 4,626 $ 4,834 $ (2,432 ) Gain (loss) reclassified from accumulated OCI into "Queen et al. royalty revenue," net of tax (2) $ 5,390 $ (3,768 ) $ (1,510 ) Net gain (loss) recognized in "Interest and other income, net" -- cash flow hedges (3) $ — $ 5 $ 11 _________________________ (1) Net change in the fair value of the effective portion of cash flow hedges classified in OCI (2) Effective portion classified as royalty revenue (3) Ineffectiveness from excess hedge was approximately $0 , ($5) and ($11) for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

Receivables [Abstract] | |
Notes and Other Long-term Receivables | Notes and Other Long-Term Receivables Notes and other long-term receivables included the following significant agreements: Wellstat Diagnostics Note Receivable and Credit Agreement In March 2012, the Company executed a $7.5 million two -year senior secured note receivable with the holders of the equity interests in Wellstat Diagnostics. In addition to bearing interest at 10% per annum, the note receivable gave PDL certain rights to negotiate for certain future financing transactions. In August 2012, PDL and Wellstat Diagnostics amended the note receivable, providing a senior secured note receivable of $10.0 million , bearing interest at 12% per annum, to replace the original $7.5 million note receivable. This $10.0 million note receivable was repaid on November 2, 2012, using the proceeds of the $40.0 million credit facility entered into with the Company on the same date. On November 2, 2012, the Company and Wellstat Diagnostics entered into a $40.0 million credit agreement pursuant to which the Company was to accrue quarterly interest payments at the rate of 5% per annum (payable in cash or in kind). In addition, PDL was to receive quarterly royalty payments based on a low double-digit royalty rate of Wellstat Diagnostics' net revenues, generated by the sale, distribution or other use of Wellstat Diagnostics' products, if any, commencing upon the commercialization of its products. In January 2013, the Company was informed that, as of December 31, 2012, Wellstat Diagnostics had used funds contrary to the terms of the credit agreement and breached Sections 2.1.2 and 7 of the credit agreement. PDL sent Wellstat Diagnostics a notice of default on January 22, 2013, and accelerated the amounts owed under the credit agreement. In connection with the notice of default, PDL exercised one of its available remedies and transferred approximately $8.1 million of available cash from a bank account of Wellstat Diagnostics to PDL and applied the funds to amounts due under the credit agreement. On February 28, 2013, the parties entered into a forbearance agreement whereby PDL agreed to refrain from exercising additional remedies for 120 days while Wellstat Diagnostics raised funds to capitalize the business and the parties attempted to negotiate a revised credit agreement. PDL agreed to provide up to $7.9 million to Wellstat Diagnostics to fund the business for the 120-day forbearance period under the terms of the forbearance agreement. Following the conclusion of the forbearance period that ended on June 28, 2013, the Company agreed to forbear its exercise of remedies for additional periods of time to allow the owners and affiliates of Wellstat Diagnostics to complete a pending financing transaction. During such forbearance period, the Company provided approximately $1.3 million to Wellstat Diagnostics to fund ongoing operations of the business. During the year ended December 31, 2013, approximately $8.7 million was advanced pursuant to the forbearance agreement. On August 15, 2013, the owners and affiliates of Wellstat Diagnostics completed a financing transaction to fulfill Wellstat Diagnostics' obligations under the forbearance agreement. On August 15, 2013, the Company entered into an amended and restated credit agreement with Wellstat Diagnostics. The Company determined that the new agreement should be accounted for as a modification of the existing agreement. Except as otherwise described here, the material terms of the amended and restated credit agreement are substantially the same as those of the original credit agreement, including quarterly interest payments at the rate of 5% per annum (payable in cash or in kind). In addition, PDL was to continue to receive quarterly royalty payments based on a low double-digit royalty rate of Wellstat Diagnostics' net revenues. However, pursuant to the amended and restated credit agreement: (i) the principal amount was reset to approximately $44.1 million , which was comprised of approximately $33.7 million original loan principal and interest, $1.3 million term loan principal and interest and $9.1 million forbearance principal and interest; (ii) the specified internal rates of return increased; (iii) the default interest rate was increased; (iv) Wellstat Diagnostics' obligation to provide certain financial information increased in frequency to monthly; (v) internal financial controls were strengthened by requiring Wellstat Diagnostics to maintain an independent, third-party financial professional with control over fund disbursements; (vi) the Company waived the existing events of default; and (vii) the owners and affiliates of Wellstat Diagnostics were required to contribute additional capital to Wellstat Diagnostics upon the sale of an affiliate entity. The amended and restated credit agreement had an ultimate maturity date of December 31, 2021 (but has subsequently been accelerated as described below). When the principal amount was reset, a $2.5 million reduction of the carrying value was recorded as a financing cost as a component of "Interest and other income, net". The new c arrying value is lower as a function of the variable nature of the internal rate of return to be realized by the Company based on when the note was to be repaid. The internal rate of return calculation, although increased, was reset when the credit agreement was amended and restated. In June of 2014, the Company received information from Wellstat Diagnostics that showed that it was generally unable to pay its debts as they became due. This constituted an event of default under the amended and restated credit agreement. Wellstat Diagnostics entered into a transaction involving another lender, pursuant to which Wellstat Diagnostics obtained additional short-term funding for its operations. At the same time, the Company entered into the first amendment to amended and restated credit agreement with Wellstat Diagnostics. The material terms of the amendment included the following: (1) Wellstat Diagnostics acknowledged that an event of default had occurred; (2) the Company agreed to forbear from immediately enforcing its rights for up to 60 days, so long as the other lender provided agreed levels of interim funding to Wellstat Diagnostics; and (3) the Company obtained specified additional information rights with regard to Wellstat Diagnostics’ financial matters and investment banking activities. On August 5, 2014, the Company received notice that the short-term funding being provided pursuant to the agreement with the other lender entered into during June 2014, was being terminated. Wellstat Diagnostics remained in default because it was still unable to pay its debts as they became due. Accordingly, the Company delivered the Wellstat Diagnostics Borrower Notice. The Wellstat Diagnostics Borrower Notice accelerated all obligations under the amended and restated credit agreement and demanded immediate payment in full in an amount equal to approximately $53.9 million , (which amount, in accordance with the terms of the amended and restated credit agreement, included an amount that, together with interest and royalty payments already made to the Company, would generate a specified internal rate of return to the Company), plus accruing fees, costs and interest, and demanded that Wellstat Diagnostics protect and preserve all collateral securing its obligations. On August 7, 2014, the Company delivered the Wellstat Diagnostics Guarantor Notice. The Wellstat Diagnostics Guarantor Notice included a demand that the guarantors remit payment to the Company in the amount of the outstanding obligations. The guarantors include certain affiliates and related companies of Wellstat Diagnostics, including Wellstat Therapeutics and Wellstat Diagnostics’ stockholders. On September 24, 2014, the Company filed the Wellstat Diagnostics Petition, which was granted on the same day. The order granting the Wellstat Diagnostics Petition authorizes the receiver to take immediate possession of the physical assets of Wellstat Diagnostics, with the purpose of holding, protecting, insuring, managing and preserving the business of Wellstat Diagnostics and the value of the Company’s collateral. Wellstat Diagnostics has remained in operation during the period of the receivership with incremental additional funding from the Company. On November 4, 2014, the Company entered into the third amendment to the amended and restated credit agreement with Wellstat Diagnostics. The amendment provides that additional funding, if any, to be made by the Company is conditioned upon the agreement by Wellstat Diagnostics to make certain operational changes within Wellstat Diagnostics, which the Company believes will allow the receiver to more efficiently optimize the value of the collateral. During the second quarter of 2015, the receiver initiated a process for a public sale of the assets of Wellstat Diagnostics and retained the investment banking firm of Duff & Phelps to organize and manage the sale process. The receiver filed a "Motion For Approval of Sale Procedures" with the Circuit Court for Montgomery County, Maryland, which is the court having jurisdiction over the receivership and a hearing was held on July 22, 2015 at which time arguments were heard from interested parties regarding the sale procedures. No significant substantive disagreements between the parties regarding the sale procedures remained after the hearing and a decision approving the receiver’s sale procedures was made in the third quarter of 2015. PDL has submitted a credit bid for the Wellstat Diagnostic assets at a value corresponding to some portion of the outstanding amount due under the amended and restated credit agreement which is subject to court approval. We anticipate that the sale process will be completed during the second quarter of 2016. On September 4, 2015, PDL filed in the Supreme Court of New York a motion for summary judgment in lieu of complaint which requested that the court enter judgment against Wellstat Diagnostics Guarantors for the total amount due on the Wellstat Diagnostics debt, plus all costs and expenses including lawyers’ fees incurred by the Company in enforcement of the related guarantees. On September 23, 2015, PDL filed in the same court an ex parte application for a temporary restraining order and order of attachment of the Wellstat Diagnostics Guarantors' assets. At a hearing on September 24, 2015, regarding the Company’s request for a temporary restraining order, the court ordered that the Company’s request for attachment and for summary judgment would be heard at a hearing on November 5, 2015. Although the court denied the Company’s request for a temporary restraining order at the hearing on September 24, it ordered that assets of the Wellstat Diagnostics Guarantors should be held in status quo ante and only used in the normal course of business pending the outcome of the hearing. The court in New York has yet to rule on the Company's motions for attachment and summary judgment. On October 22, 2015, the Wellstat Diagnostics Guarantors filed a complaint against the Company in the Supreme Court of New York seeking a declaratory judgment that certain contractual arrangements entered into between the parties subsequent to Wellstat Diagnostics’ default, and which relate to a split of proceeds in the event that the Wellstat Diagnostics Guarantors voluntarily monetize any assets that are the Company’s collateral, is of no force or effect. Through the period ended December 31, 2015, PDL has advanced to Wellstat Diagnostics $12.9 million to fund the ongoing operations of the business and other associated costs. This funding has been expensed as incurred. As of December 31, 2015, PDL is legally owed $94.1 million, which includes principal, un-accrued interest, and funding of operations. Effective April 1, 2014, and as a result of the event of default, we determined the loan to be impaired and we ceased to accrue interest revenue. At that time and as of December 31, 2015 it has been determined that an allowance on the carrying value of the note was not necessary as the Company believes the value of the collateral securing Wellstat Diagnostics’ obligations exceeds the carrying value of the asset and is sufficient to enable the Company to recover the current carrying value of $50.2 million . There can be no assurance that this will be true in the event of the Company’s foreclosure on the collateral, nor can there be any assurance of the timing in realizing value from such collateral, whether from the sale process currently underway or a subsequent monetization event if PDL's credit bid for the assets is successful. Hyperion Agreement On January 27, 2012, PDL and Hyperion entered into an agreement whereby Hyperion sold to PDL the royalty streams due from SDK related to a certain patent license agreement between Hyperion and SDK dated December 31, 2008. The agreement assigned the patent license agreement royalty stream accruing from January 1, 2012 through December 31, 2013 to PDL in exchange for the lump sum payment to Hyperion of $2.3 million . In exchange for the lump sum payment, PDL was to receive two equal payments of $1.2 million on each of March 5, 2013 and 2014. The first payment of $1.2 million was paid on March 5, 2013, but Hyperion has not made the second payment that was due on March 5, 2014. The Company completed an impairment analysis as of December 31, 2015. Effective with this date and as a result of the event of default, we ceased to accrue interest revenue. As of December 31, 2015, the estimated fair value of the collateral was determined to be in excess of that of the carrying value. There can be no assurance that this will be true in the event of the Company's foreclosure on the collateral, nor can there be any assurance of realizing value from such collateral. Hyperion is considering other sources of financing and strategic alternatives, including selling the company. AxoGen Note Receivable and AxoGen Royalty Agreement In October 2012, PDL entered into the AxoGen Royalty Agreement with AxoGen pursuant to which PDL would receive specified royalties on AxoGen’s net revenues (as defined in the AxoGen Royalty Agreement) generated by the sale, distribution or other use of AxoGen’s products. The AxoGen Royalty Agreement had an eight -year term and provided PDL with royalties of 9.95% based on AxoGen's net revenues, subject to agreed-upon guaranteed quarterly minimum payments of approximately $1.3 million to $2.5 million , which were to begin in the fourth quarter of 2014, and the right to require AxoGen to repurchase the royalties under the AxoGen Royalty Agreement at the end of the fourth year. AxoGen was granted certain rights to call the contract in years five through eight . The total consideration PDL paid to AxoGen for the royalty rights was $20.8 million , including an interim funding of $1.8 million in August 2012. AxoGen was required to use a portion of the proceeds from the AxoGen Royalty Agreement to pay the outstanding balance under its existing credit facility. The royalty rights were secured by the cash and accounts receivable of AxoGen. On August 14, 2013, PDL purchased 1,166,666 shares of registered common stock of AxoGen (AXGN) at $3.00 per share, totaling $3.5 million . On December 22, 2014, PDL sold these shares at $3.03 per share, totaling approximately $3.5 million . On November 13, 2014, the Company agreed to terminate the AxoGen Royalty Agreement in consideration for a payment of $30.3 million in cash, which was the sum of the outstanding principal, interest and embedded derivative. At the same time, the Company acquired 643,382 shares of registered common stock of AxoGen for approximately $1.7 million at a public offering price of $2.72 per share. The shares are classified as available for sale securities and recorded as short-term investments on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. In the third and fourth quarters of 2015, PDL sold 200,000 and 149,650 shares, respectively, at a price range between $5.46 and $5.69 per share, totaling approximately $1.9 million . As of December 31, 2015, PDL holds 293,732 shares of AxoGen common stock, which were valued at $1.5 million , which resulted in an unrealized gain of $0.7 million and is recorded in "Other comprehensive income (loss), net of tax." Avinger Credit and Royalty Agreement On April 18, 2013, PDL entered into the Avinger Credit and Royalty Agreement, under which we made available to Avinger up to $40.0 million to be used by Avinger in connection with the commercialization of its lumivascular catheter devices and the development of Avinger's lumivascular atherectomy device. Of the $40.0 million available to Avinger, we funded an initial $20.0 million , net of fees, at the close of the transaction. Outstanding borrowings under the initial loan bore interest at a stated rate of 12% per annum. On September 22, 2015, Avinger elected as per the voluntary prepayment provision under the Avinger Credit and Royalty Agreement to prepay the note receivable in whole for a payment of $21.4 million in cash, which was the sum of the outstanding principal, interest and a prepayment fee. Under the terms of the Avinger Credit and Royalty Agreement, the Company receives a low, single-digit royalty on Avinger's net revenues until April 2018. Commencing in October 2015, after Avinger repaid the note receivable prior to its maturity date, the royalty on Avinger's net revenues reduced by 50% , subject to certain minimum payments from the prepayment date until April 2018. PDL has accounted for the royalty rights in accordance with the fair value option. LENSAR Credit Agreement On October 1, 2013, PDL entered into a credit agreement with LENSAR, under which PDL made available to LENSAR up to $60.0 million to be used by LENSAR in connection with the commercialization of its currently marketed LENSAR™ Laser System. Of the $60.0 million available to LENSAR, an initial $40.0 million , net of fees, was funded by the Company at the close of the transaction. The remaining $20.0 million in the form of a second tranche is no longer available to LENSAR under the terms of the credit agreement. Outstanding borrowings under the loans bear interest at the rate of 15.5% per annum, payable quarterly in arrears. On May 12, 2015, PDL entered into a forbearance agreement with LENSAR under which PDL agreed to refrain from exercising certain remedies available to it resulting from the failure of LENSAR to comply with a liquidity covenant and make interest payments due under the credit agreement. Under the forbearance agreement, PDL agreed to provide LENSAR with up to an aggregate of $8.5 million in weekly increments through the period ending September 30, 2015 plus employee retention amounts of approximately $0.5 million in the form of additional loans subject to LENSAR meeting certain milestones related to LENSAR obtaining additional capital to fund the business or selling itself and repaying outstanding amounts under the credit agreement. In exchange for the forbearance, LENSAR agreed to additional reporting covenants, the engagement of a chief restructuring officer and an increase on the interest rate to 18.5% , applicable to all outstanding amounts under the credit agreement. On September 30, 2015, PDL agreed to extend the forbearance agreement until October 9, 2015 and provide for up to an additional $0.8 million in funding while LENSAR negotiated a potential sale of its assets. On October 9, 2015, the forbearance agreement expired, but PDL agreed to fund LENSAR's operations while LENSAR continued to negotiate a potential sale of its assets. On November 15, 2015, Lion Buyer LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Alphaeon, and LENSAR entered into the Asset Purchase Agreement whereby Lion Buyer agreed to acquire substantially all the assets and assumed certain liabilities of LENSAR subject to the satisfaction of certain closing conditions. The acquisition was consummated on December 15, 2015. In connection with the closing of the acquisition, Lion Buyer entered into an amended and restated credit agreement with PDL, assuming $42.0 million in loans as part of the borrowings under PDL’s prior credit agreement with LENSAR and changed its name to LENSAR, LLC. In addition, Alphaeon issued 1.7 million shares of its Class A common stock to PDL. Under the terms of the amended and restated credit agreement, PDL has a first lien security interest in substantially all of the assets of LENSAR, LLC. The loans bear interest of 15.5% per annum, payable quarterly in arrears. LENSAR, LLC may elect to pay in kind interest the first three interest payments in the form of additional principal amount added to the loans. The principal repayment will commence on the ninth interest payment date. The principal amount outstanding at commencement of repayment will be repaid in equal installments until final maturity of the loans which is December 15, 2020. PDL concluded that the amendment and restatement of the original LENSAR credit agreement shall be accounted for as a troubled debt restructuring due to the concession granted by PDL and LENSAR’s financial difficulties. PDL has recognized a loss on extinguishment of notes receivable of $4.0 million and expensed $3.0 million of closing fees as general & administrative costs as incurred at closing on December 15, 2015. We have estimated a fair value of $3.84 per share for the 1.7 million shares of Alphaeon Class A common stock received in connection with the transactions and recognized this investment as a cost-method investment of $6.6 million included in other long-term asset. The Alphaeon Class A common stock is subject to other-than-temporary impairment assessments in future periods. Durata Credit Agreement On October 31, 2013, PDL entered into a credit agreement with Durata, under which the Company made available to Durata up to $70.0 million . Of the $70.0 million available to Durata, an initial $25.0 million (tranche one), net of fees, was funded by the Company at the close of the transaction. On May 27, 2014, the Company funded Durata an additional $15.0 million (tranche two) as a result of Durata's marketing approval of dalbavancin in the United States, which occurred on May 23, 2014, and was the milestone needed to receive the tranche two funding. Until the occurrence of the tranche two milestone, outstanding borrowings under tranche one bore interest at the rate of 14.0% per annum, payable quarterly in arrears. Upon occurrence of the tranche two milestone, the interest rate of the loans decreased to 12.75% . On November 17, 2014, the Company received a payment of approximately $42.7 million constituting repayment in full of the outstanding principal amount of loans plus accrued interest and fees under the credit agreement. The repayment was made in connection with the acquisition of Durata by Actavis plc. Direct Flow Medical Credit Agreement On November 5, 2013, PDL entered into a credit agreement with Direct Flow Medical, under which PDL agreed to provide up to $50.0 million to Direct Flow Medical. Of the $50.0 million available to Direct Flow Medical, an initial $35.0 million (tranche one), net of fees, was funded by the Company at the close of the transaction. Pursuant to the original terms of the credit agreement, the Company agreed to provide Direct Flow Medical with an additional $15.0 million tranche, net of fees, upon the attainment of a specified revenue milestone to be accomplished no later than December 31, 2014 (the tranche two milestone). Until the occurrence of the tranche two milestone, outstanding borrowings under tranche one bore interest at the rate of 15.5% per annum, payable quarterly in arrears. On November 10, 2014, PDL and Direct Flow Medical agreed to an amendment to the credit agreement to permit Direct Flow Medical to borrow the $15.0 million second tranche upon receipt by Direct Flow Medical of a specified minimum amount of proceeds from an equity offering prior to December 31, 2014. In exchange, the parties amended the credit agreement to provide for additional fees associated with certain liquidity events, such as a change of control or the consummation of an initial public offering, and granted PDL certain board of director observation rights. On November 19, 2014, upon Direct Flow Medical satisfying the amended tranche two milestone, the Company funded the $15.0 million second tranche to Direct Flow Medical, net of fees. Upon occurrence of the borrowing of this second tranche, the interest rate applicable to all loans under the credit agreement was decreased to 13.5% per annum, payable quarterly in arrears. Principal repayment will commence on the 12th interest payment date, September 30, 2016. The principal amount outstanding at commencement of repayment will be repaid in equal installments until final maturity of the loans. The loans will mature on November 5, 2018. Direct Flow Medical may elect to prepay the loans at any time, subject to a prepayment penalty that decreases over the life of the loans. The obligations under the credit agreement are secured by a pledge of substantially all of the assets of Direct Flow Medical and any of its subsidiaries. On December 21, 2015, Direct Flow Medical and PDL entered into a waiver to the credit agreement in anticipation of Direct Flow Medical being unable to comply with the liquidity covenant and make interest payments due under the credit agreement. On January 14, 2016, both parties agreed to provide Direct Flow Medical with an extension to waive the liquidity covenant and delay the timing of the interest payments through the period ending September 30, 2016. On January 28, 2016, PDL funded an additional $5.0 million to Direct Flow Medical in the form of a short-term secured promissory note that we expect will be converted into a loan under the credit agreement with substantially the same interest and payment terms as the existing loans. The Company completed an impairment analysis as of December 31, 2015. Effective with this date and as a result of the event of default, we determined the loan to be impaired and we ceased to accrue interest revenue. As of December 31, 2015, the estimated fair value of the collateral was determined to be in excess of that of the carrying value. There can be no assurance that this will be true in the event of the Company's foreclosure on the collateral, nor can there be any assurance of realizing value from such collateral. Paradigm Spine Credit Agreement On February 14, 2014, the Company entered into the Paradigm Spine Credit Agreement, under which it made available to Paradigm Spine up to $75.0 million to be used by Paradigm Spine to refinance its existing credit facility and expand its domestic commercial operations. Of the $75.0 million available to Paradigm Spine, an initial $50.0 million , net of fees, was funded by the Company at the close of the transaction. The second and third tranches of up to an additional $25.0 million in the aggregate, net of fees, are no longer available under the terms of the Paradigm Spine Credit Agreement. On October 27, 2015, PDL and Paradigm Spine entered into an amendment to the Paradigm Spine Credit Agreement to provide additional term loan commitments of up to $7.0 million payable in two tranches of $4.0 million and $3.0 million , of which the first tranche was drawn on the closing date of the amendment, net of fees, and the second tranche is to be funded at the option of Paradigm Spine prior to June 30, 2016. Borrowings under the credit agreement bear interest at the rate of 13.0% per annum, payable quarterly in arrears. Principal repayment will commence on the 12th interest payment date, December 31, 2016. The principal amount outstanding at commencement of repayment will be repaid in equal installments until final maturity of the loans. The loans will mature on February 14, 2019. Paradigm Spine may elect to prepay the loans at any time, subject to a prepayment penalty that decreases over the life of the loans. The obligations under the Paradigm Spine Credit Agreement are secured by a pledge of substantially all of the assets of Paradigm Spine and its domestic subsidiaries and, initially, certain assets of Paradigm Spine’s German subsidiaries. kaléo Note Purchase Agreement On April 1, 2014, PDL entered into a note purchase agreement with Accel 300, a wholly-owned subsidiary of kaléo, pursuant to which the Company acquired $150.0 million of secured notes due 2029. The secured notes were issued pursuant to an indenture between Accel 300 and U.S. Bank, National Association, as trustee, and are secured by the kaléo Revenue Interests and a pledge of kaléo’s equity ownership in Accel 300. The secured notes bear interest at 13% per annum, paid quarterly in arrears on principal outstanding. The principal balance of the secured notes is repaid to the extent that the kaléo Revenue Interests exceed the quarterly interest payment, as limited by a quarterly payment cap. The final maturity of the secured notes is June 2029. kaléo may redeem the secured notes at any time, subject to a redemption premium. As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company determined that its royalty purchase interest in Accel 300 represented a variable interest in a variable interest entity. However, the Company does not have the power to direct the activities of Accel 300 that most significantly impact Accel 300's economic performance and is not the primary beneficiary of Accel 300; therefore, Accel 300 is not subject to consolidation by the Company. On October 28, 2015, Sanofi US initiated a voluntary nationwide recall of all Auvi-Q ® units effectively immediately. Sanofi is the exclusive licensee of kaléo for the manufacturing and commercialization of Auvi-Q. While Sanofi has not identified the reason for the recall, press reports indicate that a small number of units have failed to activate or delivered inadequate doses of epinephrine. It is not known at this time when Sanofi will reintroduce Auvi-Q in the U.S. Subsequent to the recall, kaléo made a full and timely payment of $9.5 million , which included all principal and interest due in the fourth quarter of 2015. On February 18, 2016, PDL was advised that Sanofi and kaléo will terminate their license and development agreement later this year. At that time, all U.S. and Canadian commercial and manufacturing rights to Auvi-Q ® will be returned to kaléo, and they intend to evaluate the timing and options for bringing Auvi-Q back to the market. As part of our financing transaction, kaléo was required to establish an interest reserve account of $20.0 million from the $150.0 million provided by PDL. The purpose of this interest reserve account is to cover any possible shortfalls in interest payments owed to PDL. As of this date, despite the recall of Auvi-Q, it is projected that the interest reserve account alone is sufficient to cover possible interest shortfalls substantially through the second quarter of 2016. kaléo has indicated that it intends to make payments due to PDL under the note agreement until Auvi-Q is returned to the market. PDL will monitor the timing and options for bringing Auvi-Q back to the market and how it may impact the ability of kaléo to meet its obligations under the note purchase agreement, but at this point it has been determined that there is no impairment. CareView Credit Agreement On June 26, 2015, PDL entered into a credit agreement with CareView, under which the Company made available to CareView up to $40.0 million in two tranches of $20.0 million each. Under the terms of the credit agreement, the first tranche of $20.0 million was to be funded by the Company upon CareView’s attainment of a specified milestone relating to the placement of CareView Systems ® , to be accomplished no later than October 31, 2015. The Company expects to fund CareView an additional $20.0 million upon CareView’s attainment of specified milestones relating to the placement of CareView Systems and Consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the credit agreement), to be accomplished no later than June 30, 2017. Outstanding borrowings under the credit agreement will bear interest at the rate of 13.5% per annum and are payable quarterly in arrears. As part of the transaction, the Company received a warrant to purchase approximately 4.4 million shares of common stock of CareView at the exercise price of $0.45 per share. We have accounted for the warrant as derivative asset with an offsetting credit as debt discount. At each reporting period the warrant is marked to market for changes in fair value. On October 7, 2015, PDL and CareView entered into an ame |

The cash payment was allocated to deferred issue costs of $765,000 , additional paid-in capital of $52,000 and deferred tax assets of $28,000 . The deferred issue costs were recognized over the life of the Series 2012 Notes as interest expense. In February 2012, we entered into separate privately negotiated exchange agreements under which we exchanged an additional $10.0 million aggregate principal amount of the new Series 2012 Notes for an identical principal amount of the February 2015 Notes. In August 2013, the Company entered into a separate privately negotiated exchange agreement under which it retired the final $1.0 million aggregate principal amount of the outstanding February 2015 Notes. Pursuant to the exchange agreement, the holder of the February 2015 Notes received $1.0 million aggregate principal amount of the Series 2012 Notes. Immediately following the exchange, no principal amount of the February 2015 Notes remained outstanding and $180.0 million principal amount of the Series 2012 Notes is outstanding. On February 6, 2014, the Company entered into exchange and purchase agreements with certain holders of approximately $131.7 million aggregate principal amount of outstanding Series 2012 Notes. The exchange agreement provided for the issuance by the Company of shares of common stock and a cash payment for the Series 2012 Notes being exchanged, and the purchase agreement provided for a cash payment for the Series 2012 Notes being repurchased. The total consideration given was approximately $191.8 million . The Company issued to the participating holders of the Series 2012 Notes a total of approximately 20.3 million shares of its common stock with a fair value of approximately $157.6 million and made an aggregate cash payment of approximately $34.2 million pursuant to the exchange and purchase agreements. Of the $34.2 million cash payment, $2.5 million is attributable to an inducement fee, $1.8 million is attributable to interest accrued through the date of settlement and $29.9 million is attributable to the repurchase of the Series 2012 Notes. It was determined that the exchange and purchase agreement represented an extinguishment of the related notes. As a result, a loss on extinguishment of $6.1 million was recorded. The $6.1 million loss on extinguishment included the de-recognition of the original issuance discount of $5.8 million and a $0.3 million charge resulting from the difference of the face value of the notes and the fair value of the notes. Immediately following the exchange, $48.3 million principal amount of the Series 2012 Notes was outstanding with approximately $2.1 million of remaining original issuance discount that was amortized over the remaining life of the Series 2012 Notes. On October 20, 2014, the Company entered into a privately negotiated exchange agreement under which it retired approximately $26.0 million in principal of the outstanding Series 2012 Notes. The exchange agreement provided for the issuance, by the Company, of shares of common stock and a cash payment for the Series 2012 Notes being exchanged. The Company issued approximately 1.8 million shares of its common stock and paid a cash payment of approximately $26.2 million . Immediately following the exchange, $22.3 million principal amount of the Series 2012 Notes was outstanding with approximately $0.1 million of remaining original issuance discount to be amortized over the remaining life of the Series 2012 Notes. The Series 2012 Notes were due February 17, 2015, and bore interest at a rate of 2.875% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears on February 15 and August 15 of each year. On February 17, 2015, the Company completed the retirement of the remaining $22.3 million of aggregate principal of its Series 2012 notes at their stated maturity for $22.3 million , plus approximately 1.34 million shares of its common stock. The principal amount, carrying value and unamortized discount of the Series 2012 Notes were as follows: December 31, (In thousands) 2014 Principal amount of the Series 2012 Notes $ 22,337 Unamortized discount of liability component (76 ) Net carrying value of the Series 2012 Notes $ 22,261 Interest expense for the Series 2012 Notes on the Consolidated Statements of Income was as follows: Year ended December 31, (In thousands) 2015 2014 2013 Contractual coupon interest $ 80 $ 1,726 $ 5,158 Amortization of debt issuance costs 13 1,089 1,152 Amortization of debt discount 76 2,415 6,102 Total $ 169 $ 5,230 $ 12,412 May 2015 Notes On May 16, 2011, we issued $155.3 million in aggregate principal amount, at par, of the May 2015 Notes in an underwritten public offering, for net proceeds of $149.7 million . The May 2015 Notes are due May 1, 2015, and we pay interest at 3.75% on the May 2015 Notes semiannually in arrears on May 1 and November 1 of each year, beginning November 1, 2011. Proceeds from the May 2015 Notes, net of amounts used for purchased call option transactions and provided by the warrant transactions described below, were used to redeem our 2012 Notes. Upon the occurrence of a fundamental change, as defined in the indenture, holders have the option to require PDL to repurchase their May 2015 Notes at a purchase price equal to 100% of the principal, plus accrued interest. On May 1, 2015, the Company completed the retirement of the remaining $155.1 million of aggregate principal of its May 2015 Notes at their stated maturity for $155.1 million , plus approximately 5.2 million shares of its common stock for the excess conversion value. The carrying value and unamortized discount of the May 2015 Notes were as follows: December 31, (In thousands) 2014 Principal amount of the May 2015 Notes $ 155,050 Unamortized discount of liability component (1,815 ) Net carrying value of the May 2015 Notes $ 153,235 Interest expense for the May 2015 Notes on the Consolidated Statements of Income was as follows: Year Ended December 31, (In thousands) 2015 2014 2013 Contractual coupon interest $ 1,938 $ 5,817 $ 5,822 Amortization of debt issuance costs 435 1,274 1,232 Amortization of debt discount 1,815 5,182 4,820 Total $ 4,188 $ 12,273 $ 11,874 Purchased Call Options and Warrants In connection with the issuance of our May 2015 Notes, we entered into purchased call option transactions with two hedge counterparties. We paid an aggregate amount of $20.8 million , plus legal fees, for the purchased call options with terms substantially similar to the embedded conversion options in our May 2015 Notes. We exercised the purchased call options upon conversion of our May 2015 Notes on May 1, 2015, which required the hedge counterparties to deliver shares to the Company. The hedge counterparties delivered to us approximately 5.2 million of PDL common shares, which was the amount equal to the shares required to be delivered by us to the note holders for the excess conversion value. In addition, we sold to the hedge counterparties warrants exercisable, on a cashless basis, for the sale of rights to receive up to 27.5 million shares of common stock underlying our May 2015 Notes. We received an aggregate amount of $10.9 million for the sale from the two counterparties. Under the terms of the warrant agreement, the warrant counterparties had the option to exercise the warrants on their specified expiration dates through the 120 scheduled trading days beginning on July 30, 2015 and ending on January 20, 2016 if the VWAP of PDL's common stock exceeded the strike price of the warrants on the date of conversion. Because the VWAP of our common stock never exceeded the strike price of the warrants PDL did not deliver any common stock to the warrant counterparties. The purchased call option transactions and warrant sales effectively serve to reduce the potential dilution associated with conversion of our May 2015 Notes. The strike price is approximately $6.15 , subject to further adjustment upon certain events including dividend payments, for the warrants. Because the share price was above $5.23 , but below $6.15 , upon conversion of the Company's May 2015 Notes, the purchased call options offset the share dilution, and the Company received shares on exercise of the purchased call options equal to the shares that the Company delivered to the note holders. While the purchased call options reduced the potential equity dilution upon conversion of our May 2015 Notes, prior to the conversion or exercise, our May 2015 Notes and the warrants had a dilutive effect on the Company’s earnings per share to the extent that the price of the Company’s common stock during a given measurement period exceeds the respective exercise prices of those instruments. As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, there were no related warrants exercised. The warrants are considered indexed to PDL stock, require net-share settlement and met all criteria for equity classification at inception and at December 31, 2015 and 2014. The purchased call options cost, including legal fees, of $20.8 million , less deferred taxes of $7.2 million , and the $10.9 million received for the warrant issuance, was recorded as adjustments to additional paid-in capital. Subsequent changes in fair value will not be recognized as long as the warrants continue to meet all criteria for equity classification. February 2018 Notes On February 12, 2014, we issued $300.0 million in aggregate principal amount, at par, of the February 2018 Notes in an underwritten public offering, for net proceeds of $290.2 million . The February 2018 Notes are due February 1, 2018, and we pay interest at 4.0% on the February 2018 Notes semiannually in arrears on February 1 and August 1 of each year, beginning August 1, 2014. A portion of the proceeds from the February 2018 Notes, net of amounts used for purchased call option transactions and provided by the warrant transactions described below, were used to redeem $131.7 million of the Series 2012 Notes. Upon the occurrence of a fundamental change, as defined in the indenture, holders have the option to require PDL to repurchase their February 2018 Notes at a purchase price equal to 100% of the principal, plus accrued interest. On November 20, 2015, PDL's agent initiated the repurchase of $53.6 million in aggregate principal amount of its February 2018 Notes for $43.7 million in cash in four open market transactions. The closing of these transactions occurred on November 30, 2015. It was determined that the repurchase of the principal amount shall be accounted for as an extinguishment. As a result, a gain on extinguishment of $6.5 million was recorded at closing of the transaction. The $6.5 million gain on extinguishment included the de-recognition of the original issuance discount of $3.1 million , outstanding deferred issuance costs of $0.9 million and agent fees of $0.1 million . Immediately following the repurchase, $246.4 million principal amount of the February 2018 Notes was outstanding with $14.1 million of remaining original issuance discount and $4.1 million of debt issuance costs to be amortized over the remaining life of the February 2018 Notes. As of December 31, 2015, our February 2018 Notes are not convertible. At December 31, 2015, the if-converted value of our February 2018 Notes did not exceed the principal amount. In connection with the repurchase of the February 2018 Notes, the Company and the counterparties agreed to unwind a portion of the purchased call options. As a result of the unwind transaction of the purchased call option, PDL received $270,000 in cash. The payments received have been recorded as an increase to APIC. In addition, the Company and the counterparties agreed to unwind a portion of the warrants for $170,000 in cash, payable by PDL. The payments have been recorded as a decrease to APIC. At December 31, 2015, PDL concluded that the remaining purchased call options and warrants continue to meet all criteria for equity classification. The February 2018 Notes are convertible under any of the following circumstances: • During any fiscal quarter ending after the quarter ending June 30, 2014, if the last reported sale price of our common stock for at least 20 trading days in a period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on the last trading day of the immediately preceding fiscal quarter exceeds 130% of the conversion price for the notes on the last day of such preceding fiscal quarter; • During the five business-day period immediately after any five consecutive trading-day period, which we refer to as the measurement period, in which the trading price per $1,000 principal amount of notes for each trading day of that measurement period was less than 98% of the product of the last reported sale price of our common stock and the conversion rate for the notes for each such day; • Upon the occurrence of specified corporate events as described further in the indenture; or • At any time on or after August 1, 2017. The initial conversion rate for the February 2018 Notes is 109.1048 shares of the Company's common stock per $1,000 principal amount of February 2018 Notes, which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $9.17 per share of common stock, subject to adjustments upon the occurrence of certain specified events as set forth in the indenture. Upon conversion, the Company will be required to pay cash and, if applicable, deliver shares of the Company's common stock as described in the indenture. In accordance with the accounting guidance for convertible debt instruments that may be settled in cash or other assets on conversion, we were required to separately account for the liability component of the instrument in a manner that reflects the market interest rate for a similar nonconvertible instrument at the date of issuance. As a result, we separated the principal balance of the February 2018 Notes between the fair value of the debt component and the fair value of the common stock conversion feature. Using an assumed borrowing rate of 7.0% , which represents the estimated market interest rate for a similar nonconvertible instrument available to us on the date of issuance, we recorded a total debt discount of $29.7 million , allocated $19.3 million to additional paid-in capital and allocated $10.4 million to deferred tax liability. The discount is being amortized to interest expense over the term of the February 2018 Notes and increases interest expense during the term of the February 2018 Notes from the 4.0% cash coupon interest rate to an effective interest rate of 6.9% . As of December 31, 2015, the remaining discount amortization period is 2.1 years . The carrying value and unamortized discount of the February 2018 Notes were as follows: (In thousands) December 31, 2015 December 31, 2014 Principal amount of the February 2018 Notes $ 246,447 $ 300,000 Unamortized discount of liability component (13,612 ) (23,772 ) Net carrying value of the February 2018 Notes $ 232,835 $ 276,228 Interest expense for the February 2018 Notes on our Consolidated Statements of Income was as follows: Year Ended December 31, (In thousands) 2015 2014 Contractual coupon interest $ 11,786 $ 10,633 Amortization of debt issuance costs 1 2,980 1,898 Amortization of debt discount 1 10,160 5,954 Total $ 24,926 $ 18,485 __________________ 1 The amortization of debt issuance costs and debt discount for the year end December 31, 2015, includes $3.1 million and $0.9 million , respectively, which are recorded in gain (loss) on extinguishment of debt. As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, the February 2018 Notes are not convertible. At December 31, 2015 and 2014, the if-converted value of the February 2018 Notes did not exceed the principal amount. Purchased Call Options and Warrants In connection with the issuance of the February 2018 Notes, we entered into purchased call option transactions with two hedge counterparties. We paid an aggregate amount of $31.0 million for the purchased call options with terms substantially similar to the embedded conversion options in the February 2018 Notes. The purchased call options cover, subject to anti-dilution and certain other customary adjustments substantially similar to those in the February 2018 Notes, approximately 32.7 million shares of our common stock. We may exercise the purchased call options upon conversion of the February 2018 Notes and require the hedge counterparty to deliver shares to the Company in an amount equal to the shares required to be delivered by the Company to the note holder for the excess conversion value. The purchased call options expire on February 1, 2018, or the last day any of the February 2018 Notes remain outstanding. In addition, we sold to the hedge counterparties warrants exercisable, on a cashless basis, for the sale of rights to receive shares of common stock that will initially underlie the February 2018 Notes at a strike price of $10.3610 per share, which represents a premium of approximately 30% over the last reported sale price of the Company's common stock of $7.97 on February 6, 2014. The warrant transactions could have a dilutive effect to the extent that the market price of the Company's common stock exceeds the applicable strike price of the warrants on the date of conversion. We received an aggregate amount of $11.4 million for the sale from the two counterparties. The warrant counterparties may exercise the warrants on their specified expiration dates that occur over a period of time. If the VWAP of our common stock, as defined in the warrants, exceeds the strike price of the warrants, we will deliver to the warrant counterparties shares equal to the spread between the VWAP on the date of exercise or expiration and the strike price. If the VWAP is less than the strike price, neither party is obligated to deliver anything to the other. The purchased call option transactions and warrant sales effectively serve to reduce the potential dilution associated with conversion of the February 2018 Notes. The strike price is subject to further adjustment in the event that future quarterly dividends exceed $0.15 per share. The purchased call options and warrants are considered indexed to PDL stock, require net-share settlement and met all criteria for equity classification at inception and at December 31, 2015 and 2014. The purchased call options cost of $31.0 million , less deferred taxes of $10.8 million , and the $11.4 million received for the warrants, was recorded as adjustments to additional paid-in capital. Subsequent changes in fair value will not be recognized as long as the purchased call options and warrants continue to meet the criteria for equity classification. March 2015 Term Loan On March 30, 2015, PDL entered into a credit agreement among the Company, the lenders party thereto and the Royal Bank of Canada, as administrative agent. The credit agreement consisted of a term loan of $100.0 million . The interest rates per annum applicable to amounts outstanding under the term loan were, at the Company’s option, either (a) the alternate base rate (as defined in the credit agreement) plus 0.75% , or (b) the adjusted Eurodollar rate (as defined in the credit agreement) plus 1.75% per annum. As of December 31, 2015, the interest rate, based upon the adjusted Eurodollar rate, was 2.17% . Interest payments under the credit agreement were due on the interest payment dates specified in the credit agreement. The credit agreement required amortization of the term loan in the form of scheduled principal payments on June 15, September 15 and December 15 of 2015, with the remaining outstanding balance due on February 15, 2016. This principal balance and outstanding interest was paid in full on February 12, 2016. The Company’s obligations under the credit agreement were secured by a lien on a substantial portion of its assets. The credit agreement contained affirmative and negative covenants that the Company believed were usual and customary for a senior secured credit agreement. The credit agreement also required compliance with certain financial covenants, including a maximum total leverage ratio, a debt service coverage ratio and a minimum liquidity covenant, in each case calculated as set forth in the credit agreement and compliance with which may be necessary to take certain corporate actions. The credit agreement contained events of default that the Company believed were usual and customary for a senior secured credit agreement. October 2013 Term Loan On October 28, 2013, PDL entered into a credit agreement among the Company, the lenders party thereto and the Royal Bank of Canada, as administrative agent. The October 2013 Term Loan amount was for $75.0 million , with a term of one year. The interest rates per annum applicable to amounts outstanding under the October 2013 Term Loan were, at the Company’s option, either (a) the base rate plus 1.00% , or (b) the Eurodollar rate plus 2.00% per annum. As of the final payment date, the interest rate was 2.22% . This principal balance and outstanding interest was paid in full on October 28, 2014. As of December 31, 2015 and 2014 , PDL was in compliance with all applicable debt covenants. As of December 31, 2015 , the future minimum principal payments under the February 2018 Notes were: (In thousands) February 2018 Notes 2016 $ — 2017 — 2018 246,447 Total $ 246,447 |

Should Facet default under its lease obligations, we could be held liable by the landlord as a co-tenant and, thus, we have in substance guaranteed the payments under the lease agreements for the Redwood City facilities. As of December 31, 2015 , the total lease payments for the duration of the guarantee, which runs through December 2021, are approximately $67.7 million . If Facet were to default, we could also be responsible for lease-related costs including utilities, property taxes and common area maintenance that may be as much as the actual lease payments.

Disclosure of Compensation Related Costs, Share-based Payments [Abstract] | |
Stock-Based Compensation | Stock-Based Compensation We recognize compensation expense using a fair-value based method for costs associated with all share-based awards issued to our directors, employees and outside consultants under our stock plan. The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service periods in our Consolidated Statements of Income. We have adopted the simplified method to calculate the beginning balance of the additional paid-in capital pool of the excess tax benefit and to determine the subsequent effect on the APIC pool and Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows of the tax effects of employee stock-based compensation awards that were outstanding upon our adoption. We calculate stock-based compensation expense based on the number of awards ultimately expected to vest, net of estimated forfeitures. We estimate forfeiture rates at the time of grant and revise such rates, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. The stock-based compensation expense was determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Stock-based compensation expense for employees and directors and non-employees for the years ended December 31, 2015 , 2014 and 2013 , is presented below: Year Ended December 31, Stock-based Compensation 2015 2014 2013 (In thousands) Employees and directors $ 1,952 $ 1,157 $ 655 Non-employees 93 344 217 Total $ 2,045 $ 1,501 $ 872 Stock-Based Incentive Plans We currently have one active stock-based incentive plan under which we may grant stock-based awards to our employees, directors and non-employees. The total number of shares of common stock authorized for issuance, shares of common stock issued upon exercise of options or grant of restricted stock, shares of common stock subject to outstanding awards and available for grant under this plan as of December 31, 2015 , is as follows: Title of Plan Total Shares of Common Stock Authorized Total Shares of Common Stock Issued Total Shares of Common Stock Outstanding Awards Total Shares of Common Stock Available for Grant 2005 Equity Incentive Plan (1) 6,200,000 1,515,868 — 4,684,132 2002 Outside Directors Stock Option Plan (2) 157,000 157,000 — — 1999 Non-statutory Stock Option Plan (2) 4,966,183 4,966,183 — — 1999 Stock Option Plan (2) 3,694,485 3,694,485 — — _________________________ (1) As of December 31, 2015 , there were 585,882 shares of unvested restricted stock awards outstanding. (2) Plan terminated in 2009, subject to options outstanding under the plan. Under our 2005 Equity Incentive Plan, we are authorized to issue a variety of incentive awards, including stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock awards, restricted stock unit awards, performance share and performance unit awards, deferred compensation awards and other stock-based or cash-based awards. In 2009, the compensation committee of our board of directors (the "Compensation Committee") terminated the 1991 Nonstatutory Stock Option Plan. Additionally the Compensation Committee terminated the 1999 Outside Director Stock Option Plan, the 1999 Nonstatutory Stock Option Plan and the 2002 Outside Directors Stock Option Plan, subject to any outstanding options. Also in June 2009, our stockholders approved amendments to the Company’s 2005 Equity Incentive Plan to expand persons eligible to participate in the plan to include our outside directors.

Restricted Stock Restricted stock has the same rights as other issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock, including, in some cases, the right to accrue dividends, which are held in escrow until the award vests. The compensation expense related to these awards is determined using the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of the grant, and the compensation expense is recognized ratably over the vesting period. Under the company's recent restricted stock plans, restricted stock awards typically vest over one to five years . In addition to service requirements, vesting of restricted stock awards may be subject to the achievement of specified performance goals set by the Compensation Committee. If the performance goals are not met, no compensation expense is recognized and any previously recognized compensation expense is reversed.

The significant components of our net deferred tax assets and liabilities are as follows: December 31, (In thousands) 2015 2014 Deferred tax assets: Net operating loss carryforwards $ 4,819 $ 5,441 Research and other tax credits 1,990 2,147 Intangible assets — 14,125 Stock-based compensation 465 241 Accruals 1,146 662 Debt modifications 5,526 5,407 Capital loss carryforward 2,286 — Other 12,023 8,500 Total deferred tax assets 28,255 36,523 Valuation allowance (2,286 ) — Total deferred tax assets, net of valuation allowance 25,969 36,523 Deferred tax liabilities: Deferred gain on repurchase of convertible notes (572 ) (762 ) Intangible assets (7,029 ) — Unrealized gain on foreign currency hedge contracts (1,215 ) (1,588 ) Total deferred tax liabilities (8,816 ) (2,350 ) Net deferred tax assets $ 17,153 $ 34,173 As of December 31, 2015 and 2014 , we had federal net operating loss carryforwards of $35.8 million and $37.5 million , respectively. We also had California net operating loss carryforwards of $215.5 million as of December 31, 2015 and 2014 . The federal net operating loss carryforwards will expire in the year 2023 and the California net operating loss carryforwards will expire in 2019 , if not utilized. As of December 31, 2015 and 2014 , we had $19.3 million and $19.3 million , respectively, of state tax credit carryforwards that will expire in 2028 , if not utilized. The net operating loss carryforwards and tax credit carryforwards which resulted from exercises of stock options were not recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. Utilization of the federal and state net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards may be subject to a substantial annual limitation due to the "change in ownership" provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986. The annual limitation may result in the expiration of net operating losses and credits before utilization. We have an annual limitation on the utilization of our federal operating losses of $1.8 million for each of the years ending December 31, 2015 to 2022, and $1.3 million for the year ending December 31, 2023. As of December 31, 2015, we estimate that at least $22.0 million of federal net operating loss carryforwards and zero of the state net operating losses will expire unutilized. During 2015, the Company determined that is was more likely than not that certain deferred tax carryforward assets would not be realized in the near future. As a result, $2.3 million valuation allowance against deferred tax assets was established during 2015. The net change in total valuation allowance for each of the years ending December 31, 2015 and 2014, was an increase of $2.3 million and a decrease of $5.4 million , respectively. The valuation allowance at December 31, 2015, is related to capital losses recognized during 2015 that have limited carryback and carryforward utilization. The Company does not have an expectation of future capital gains against which such losses could be utilized and as such determined that it was more likely than not that such deferred tax assets would not be realized. A reconciliation of our unrecognized tax benefits, excluding accrued interest and penalties, for 2015 , 2014 and 2013 is as follows: December 31, (In thousands) 2015 2014 2013 Balance at the beginning of the year $ 47,146 $ 32,419 $ 32,647 Increases related to tax positions from prior fiscal years — 10,216 — Increases related to tax positions taken during current fiscal year 9,979 11,006 5,490 Expiration of statute of limitations for the assessment of taxes from prior fiscal years — (6,495 ) (5,718 ) Balance at the end of the year $ 57,125 $ 47,146 $ 32,419 The future impact of the unrecognized tax benefit of $57.1 million , if recognized, is as follows: $33.4 million would affect the effective tax rate and $23.7 million would result in adjustments to deferred tax assets. We periodically evaluate our exposures associated with our tax filing positions. During 2015, as a result of the evaluation of our uncertain tax positions, we increased the unrecognized tax benefits by $10.0 million primarily related to state items. As noted below, the Company is currently under audit by the California Franchise Tax Board. The timing of the audit resolution and the amount to be ultimately paid (if any) is uncertain. At this time, the Company does not anticipate a material change in the unrecognized tax benefits related to the California audit that would affect the effective tax rate or deferred tax assets over the next 12 months. Estimated interest and penalties associated with unrecognized tax benefits increased income tax expense in the Consolidated Statements of Income by $2.3 million during the year ended December 31, 2015 , and increased income tax expense by $1.3 million during the year ended December 31, 2014 , and decreased income tax expense by $0.7 million during the year ended December 31, 2013. In general, our income tax returns are subject to examination by U.S. federal, state and local tax authorities for tax years 1996 forward. Interest and penalties associated with unrecognized tax benefits accrued on the balance sheet were $5.1 million and $2.8 million as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. In May 2012, PDL received a “no-change” letter from the IRS upon completion of an examination of the Company's 2008 federal tax return. We are currently under income tax examination in the state of California for the tax years 2009, 2010, 2011 and 2012. |

Legal Proceedings [Abstract] | |
Legal Matters and Contingencies [Text Block] | Legal Proceedings PDL BioPharma, Inc. v Merck Sharp & Dohme, Corp. On October 28, 2015, the Company filed a Complaint against Merck Sharp & Dohme, Corp (“Merck”) for patent infringement in the United States District Court for the District of Nevada. In the Complaint, the Company alleges that manufacture and sales of certain of Merck’s Keytruda product infringes one or more claims of the Company’s '761 Patent. The Company has requested judgment that Merck has infringed the '761 Patent, an award of damages due to the infringement, a finding that such infringement was willful and deliberate and trebling of damages therefore, and a declaration that the case is exceptional and warrants an award of attorney’s fees and costs. Although the '761 Patent expired on December 2, 2014, the Company believes that Merck infringed the patent through, e.g., manufacture and/or sale of Keytruda prior to the expiration of the '761 Patent. On December 21, 2015, Merck filed a Motion to Dismiss for Lack of Personal Jurisdiction. In response to Merck’s motion, on January 22, 2016, rather than dispute Merck’s contentions regarding jurisdiction, the Company elected to dismiss the action in Nevada and refile the Complaint in its entirety in the District of New Jersey. Wellstat Litigation On September 4, 2015, PDL filed in the Supreme Court of New York a motion for summary judgment in lieu of complaint which requested that the court enter judgment against Wellstat Diagnostics’ Guarantors for the total amount due on the Wellstat Diagnostics debt, plus all costs and expenses including lawyers’ fees incurred by the Company in enforcement of the related guarantees. On September 23, 2015, PDL filed in the same court an ex parte application for a temporary restraining order and order of attachment of the Wellstat Diagnostics’ Guarantors' assets. At a hearing on September 24, 2015, regarding the Company’s request for a temporary restraining order, the court ordered that the Company’s request for attachment and for summary judgment would be heard at a hearing on November 5, 2015. Although the court denied the Company’s request for a temporary restraining order at the hearing on September 24, it ordered that assets of the Wellstat Diagnostics Guarantors should be held in status quo ante and only used in the normal course of business pending the outcome of the hearing. The court in New York has yet to rule on the Company’s motions for attachment and summary judgment. On October 22, 2015, the Wellstat Diagnostics Guarantors filed a complaint against the Company in the Supreme Court of New York seeking a declaratory judgment that certain contractual arrangements entered into between the parties subsequent to Wellstat Diagnostics’ default, and which relate to a split of proceeds in the event that the Wellstat Diagnostics Guarantors voluntarily monetize any assets that are the Company’s collateral, is of no force or effect. Other Legal Proceedings From time to time, we are involved in lawsuits, arbitrations, claims, investigations and proceedings, consisting of intellectual property, commercial, employment and other matters, which arise in the ordinary course of business. We make provisions for liabilities when it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Such provisions are reviewed at least quarterly and adjusted to reflect the impact of settlement negotiations, judicial and administrative rulings, advice of legal counsel, and other information and events pertaining to a particular case. Litigation is inherently unpredictable. If any unfavorable ruling were to occur in any specific period, there exists the possibility of a material adverse impact on the results of our operations of that period and on our cash flows and liquidity. |

Subsequent Events [Abstract] | |
Subsequent Events [Text Block] | Subsequent Event On January 28, 2016, PDL funded an additional $5.0 million to Direct Flow Medical in the form of a short-term secured promissory note that we expect will be converted into a loan under the credit agreement with substantially the same interest and payment terms as the existing loans. The Company completed an impairment analysis as of December 31, 2015. Effective with this date and as a result of the event of default, we determined the loan to be impaired and we ceased to accrue interest revenue. As of December 31, 2015, the estimated fair value of the collateral was determined to be in excess of that of the carrying value. There can be no assurance that this will be true in the event of the Company's foreclosure on the collateral, nor can there be any assurance of realizing value from such collateral. On February 18, 2016, PDL was advised that Sanofi and kaléo will terminate their license and development agreement later this year. At that time, all U.S. and Canadian commercial and manufacturing rights to Auvi-Q ® will be returned to kaléo, and they intend to evaluate the timing and options for bringing Auvi-Q back to the market. PDL entered into a secured note purchase agreement with Accel 300, a wholly-owned subsidiary of kaléo, which as of December 31, 2015, had a principal balance of $144.8 million due to PDL. An interest reserve account previously set up as part of the note agreement will substantially cover interest payments due to PDL through the end of the second quarter of 2016, and kaléo has indicated that it intends to make payments due to PDL under the note agreement until Auvi-Q is returned to the market. |

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Investment, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Investments The Company's investments include cost method investments and available-for-sale investments in certain publicly traded companies and privately-held companies. Cost method is used for investments over which the Company does not have the ability to exercise significant influence. Gains or losses are realized when such investments are sold or when dividends are declared or payments are received. See Note 7. Available-for-sale securities are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses recorded in "Accumulated other comprehensive income." See Note 5. |
Income Tax, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Income Taxes The provision for income taxes is determined using the asset and liability approach. Tax laws require items to be included in tax filings at different times than the items are reflected in the financial statements. A current liability is recognized for the estimated taxes payable for the current year. Deferred taxes represent the future tax consequences expected to occur when the reported amounts of assets and liabilities are recovered or paid. Deferred taxes are adjusted for enacted changes in tax rates and tax laws. Valuation allowances are recorded to reduce deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that a tax benefit will not be realized. The Company recognizes tax benefits from uncertain tax positions only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such positions are then measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. See Note 16, “Income Taxes” of this Form 10-K for additional information. |
Basis of Presentation, Policy | Basis of Presentation The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and under the rules and regulations of the SEC. The financial statements include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) that management of PDL believes are necessary for a fair presentation of the periods presented. |
Principles of Consolidation, Policy | Principles of Consolidation The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, QHP Royalty Sub LLC. All material intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated in consolidation. |
Management Estimates, Policy | Management Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the use of management’s estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. |
Segment Disclosures, Policy | Segment Disclosures Our chief operating decision-maker consists of our executive management. Our chief operating decision-maker reviews our operating results and operating plans and makes resource allocation decisions on a company-wide basis; therefore, we operate as one segment. |
Cash Equivalents and Investments, Policy | Cash Equivalents We consider all highly liquid investments with initial maturities of three months or less at the date of purchase to be cash equivalents. We place our cash and cash equivalents with high credit quality financial institutions and, by policy, limit the amount of credit exposure in any one financial instrument. |
Fair Value Measurements, Policy | Fair Value Measurements The fair value of our financial instruments are estimates of the amounts that would be received if we were to sell an asset or we paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date or exit price. The assets and liabilities are categorized and disclosed in one of the following three categories: Level 1 – based on quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities; Level 2 – based on quoted market prices for similar assets and liabilities, using observable market based inputs or unobservable market based inputs corroborated by market data, and Level 3 – based on unobservable inputs using management’s best estimate and assumptions when inputs are unavailable. |
Notes Receivable and Other Long-Term Receivables, Policy | Notes Receivable and Other Long-Term Receivables We account for our notes receivable at both amortized cost, net of unamortized origination fees, if any, and as dependent on collateral when the loan for which repayment is expected to be provided solely by the underlying collateral. For loans accounted for at their amortized cost, related fees and costs are recorded net of any amounts reimbursed. Interest is accreted or accrued to "Interest revenue" using the effective interest method. When and if supplemental royalties are received from certain of these notes and other long-term receivables, an adjustment to the estimated effective interest rate is effected prospectively. We evaluate the collectability of both interest and principal for each note receivable and loan to determine whether it is impaired. A note receivable or loan is considered to be impaired when, based on current information and events, we determine it is probable that we will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the existing contractual terms. When a note receivable or loan is considered to be impaired, the amount of loss is calculated by comparing the carrying value of the financial asset to the value determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at the loan's effective interest rate or to the estimated fair value of the underlying collateral, less costs to sell, if the loan is collateralized and we expect repayment to be provided solely by the collateral. Impairment assessments require significant judgments and are based on significant assumptions related to the borrower's credit risk, financial performance, expected sales, and fair value of the collateral. |
Debt, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Convertible Notes The Company issued our Series 2012 Notes, May 2015 Notes and our February 2018 Notes with a net share settlement feature, meaning that upon any conversion, the principal amount will be settled in cash and the remaining amount, if any, will be settled in shares of our common stock. In accordance with accounting guidance for convertible debt instruments that may be settled in cash or other assets on conversion, we separated the principal balance between the fair value of the liability component and the common stock conversion feature using a market interest rate for a similar nonconvertible instrument at the date of issuance. |
Intangible Asset, Policy | Royalty Rights - At Fair Value Currently, we have elected to account for our investments in royalty rights at fair value with changes in fair value presented in earnings. The fair value of the investments in royalty rights is determined by using a discounted cash flow analysis related to the expected future cash flows to be received. These assets are classified as Level 3 assets within the fair value hierarchy as our valuation estimates utilize significant unobservable inputs, including estimates as to the probability and timing of future sales of the related products. Transaction-related fees and costs are expensed as incurred. The changes in the estimated fair value from investments in royalty rights along with cash receipts each reporting period are presented together on our Consolidated Statements of Income as a component of revenue under the caption, “Royalty rights - change in fair value.” |
Foreign Currency Hedging, Policy | Foreign Currency Hedging We enter into foreign currency hedges to manage exposures arising in the normal course of business and not for speculative purposes. We hedge certain Euro-denominated currency exposures related to royalties associated with our licensees’ product sales with Euro forward contracts. In general, these contracts are intended to offset the underlying Euro market risk in our royalty revenues. The last of these contracts expires in the first quarter of 2016. We designate foreign currency exchange contracts used to hedge royalty revenues based on underlying Euro-denominated licensee product sales as cash flow hedges. At the inception of each hedging relationship and on a quarterly basis, we assess the hedge effectiveness. The fair value of the Euro contracts is estimated using pricing models with readily observable inputs from actively quoted markets and is disclosed on a gross basis. The aggregate unrealized gains or losses, net of tax, on the effective component of the hedge is recorded in stockholders’ equity as "Accumulated other comprehensive income." Realized gains or losses on cash flow hedges are recognized as an adjustment to royalty revenue in the same period that the hedged transaction impacts earnings as royalty revenue. Any gain or loss on the ineffective portion of our hedge contracts is reported in "Interest and other income, net" in the period the ineffectiveness occurs. |
Revenue Recognition, Policy | Queen et al. Royalty Revenues Under the Company's Queen at al. Patent license agreements, the Company receives royalty payments based upon our licensees’ net sales of covered products. Generally, under these agreements we receive royalty reports from our licensees approximately one quarter in arrears, that is, generally in the second month of the quarter after the licensee has sold the royalty-bearing product. We recognize royalty revenues when we can reliably estimate such amounts and collectability is reasonably assured. As such, we generally recognize royalty revenues in the quarter reported to us by our licensees, that is, royalty revenues are generally recognized one quarter following the quarter in which sales by our licensees occurred. Under this accounting policy, the royalty revenues we report are not based upon our estimates and such royalty revenues are typically reported in the same period in which we receive payment from our licensees. The Company also received annual maintenance fees from licensees of our Queen et al. patents prior to patent expiry as well as periodic milestone payments. We had no performance obligations with respect to such fees. Maintenance fees were recognized as they became due and when payment was reasonably assured. Total annual maintenance and milestone payments in each of the last several years have been less than 1% of total revenue. Although the last of our Queen et al. patents expired in December 2014, we expect to receive royalties beyond expiration based on the terms of our licenses and our legal settlements. We do not expect to receive any meaningful revenue from our Queen et al. patents beyond the first quarter of 2016. In the second quarter of 2016, the Company's revenues are likely to materially decrease after the conclusion of receiving payments from these Queen et al. patents license agreements, which accounted for 82% of our 2015 revenue. The continued success of the Company will become more dependent on the timing and our ability to acquire new income generating assets in order to provide recurring revenues going forward and to support the Company's business model and ability to pay dividends. |
Comprehensive Income, Policy | Comprehensive Income (Loss) Comprehensive income (loss) comprises net income adjusted for other comprehensive income (loss), using the specific identification method, which includes the changes in unrealized gains and losses on cash flow hedges and changes in unrealized gains and losses on our investments in available-for-sale securities, all net of tax, which are excluded from our net income. |
Property and Equipment, Policy | Property and Equipment Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization were computed using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives: Leasehold improvements Shorter of asset life or term of lease Computer and office equipment 3 years Furniture and fixtures 7 years |
New Accounting Pronouncements, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers . The updated standard will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in GAAP when it becomes effective and permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. In August 2015, the FASB issued an update to defer the effective date of this update by one year. The updated standard becomes effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal year 2018, but allows the Company to adopt the standard one year earlier if it so chooses. The Company has not yet selected a transition method and is currently evaluating the effect that the updated standard will have on its Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures, and is therefore unable to determine the impact on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements. In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs , which requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. This ASU requires retrospective adoption and will be effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of 2016. The adoption of this ASU is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements. In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-17, Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes , which amends existing guidance on income taxes to require the classification of all deferred tax assets and liabilities as non-current on the balance sheet. The Company is required to adopt this ASU no later than January 1, 2018, with early adoption permitted, and the guidance may be applied either prospectively or retrospectively. The Company does not expect this ASU to have a material impact on its Consolidated Financial Statements. |

Should the expected royalties increase or decrease by 2.5%, the fair value of the asset could increase by $0.4 million or decrease by $0.4 million, respectively. A third-party expert was engaged to assist management with the development of its estimate of the expected future cash flows, when deemed necessary. The fair value of the asset is subject to variation should those cash flows vary significantly from our estimates.

Fair Value Measurements, Sensitivity Analysis, Description | Should these discount rates increase or decrease by 2.5%, the fair value of the asset could decrease by $7.7 million or increase by $8.7 million, respectively. A third-party expert was engaged to help management develop its original estimate of the expected future cash flows. The fair value of the asset is subject to variation should those cash flows vary significantly from those estimates. We periodically assess the expected future cash flows and to the extent such payments are greater or less than our initial estimates, or the timing of such payments is materially different than our original estimates, we will adjust the estimated fair value of the asset. In February 2016, certain manufacturers of generic equivalents to Glumetza started to enter the market. Our current expected future cash flows anticipate a reduction in future cash flows of Glumetza as a result of the generic competition in 2016. Should the expected royalties increase or decrease by 2.5%, the fair value of the asset could increase by $4.1 million or decrease by $3.9 million, respectively. | |||||||||||
