TESSERA HOLDING CORPORATION ANNOUNCES FOURTH QUARTER AND FULL YEAR 2016 RESULTS
Company Announces New Name and Stock Ticker Symbol: Xperi Corporation (XPER)
San Jose, Calif., (February 22, 2017) — Tessera Holding Corp. (Nasdaq: TSRA) (the “Company” or “we”) today announced financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ending December 31, 2016. Total revenue for the fourth quarter of 2016 was $70.1 million. GAAP net loss for the fourth quarter of 2016 was $9.3 million, or $0.19 per basic share, and non-GAAP net income was $23.3 million, or $0.45 per diluted share.
“2016 was a transformational year with the combination of Tessera and DTS, which today we are excited to have rebranded as Xperi, reflecting our new vision of bringing together digital and physical experiences in smart, connected and personalized ways,” said Tom Lacey, chief executive officer. “While the transaction and related accounting had a significant impact on the fourth quarter results, the effect is transitory and does not reflect the underlying cash flow strength of the business. We are pleased to report the integration of DTS is on track and we are confident in our ability to realize the full benefits of the transaction. Notably, the audio and imaging businesses reached new revenue milestones in 2016 and our IP business delivered the highest recurring revenue in the last five years. Looking ahead, we are excited about the roadmap for the combined company, our momentum, and we expect to deliver strong earnings and operating cash flow in 2017.”
Fourth Quarter 2016 Results
Total revenue was $70.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2016, compared with revenue of $61.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2015. Revenue in the fourth quarter was partially impacted by the timing of the execution of an agreement which was signed in early Q1 2017. Recurring revenue was $60.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2016, compared with recurring revenue of $60.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2015. Fourth quarter 2016 revenue included $10.1 million of episodic revenue, compared with episodic revenue of $1.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2015.
Operating expenses were $75.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2016, up from $28.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2015. The year-over-year increase is primarily due to costs associated with the acquisition of DTS, including transaction costs, one month of expenses, and higher amortization and stock-based compensation. Collectively, these expenses represented $40.0 million.
Net loss was $9.3 million, or $0.19 loss per basic share, compared with net income for the fourth quarter of 2015 of $22.8 million, or $0.44 per diluted share.
Non-GAAP net income for the fourth quarter of 2016 was $23.3 million, or $0.45 per diluted share, compared with non-GAAP net income in the fourth quarter of 2015 of $29.7 million, or $0.57 per diluted share. Non-GAAP net income is defined as income and operating expenses adjusted for discontinued operations, restructuring and other exit costs, acquisition and related expenses, acquired intangible asset amortization, charges for acquired in-process research and development, stock-based compensation expense, impairment charges on long-lived assets and goodwill, expense reductions from insurance recoveries and related tax effects, using an estimated 31 percent effective tax rate on the pretax earnings of the Company.
Full Year 2016 Financial Results
Total revenue was $259.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2016, as compared with $273.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2015. Total recurring revenue for 2016 was $243.8 million as compared with $242.3 million for 2015.
Operating expenses totaled $170.2 million for 2016 as compared with $111.1 million for 2015. Net income was $56.1 million, or $1.12 per diluted share in 2016, as compared with $117.0 million, or $2.23 per diluted share in 2015, including a $6.3 million reversal of a deferred tax valuation allowance. Non-GAAP net income per share was $2.06 for 2016, compared with $2.55 for 2015.
Balance Sheet
Cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments were $113.0 million as of December 31, 2016, a decrease of $268.7 million from December 31, 2015. The decline in cash for the fiscal year was due to share repurchases of $67.7 million, the payment of $39.2 million of dividends and cash paid in connection with the fourth quarter 2016 acquisition of DTS, Inc. As a result of the acquisition, the Company has $600.0 million in debt as of December 31, 2016.
Dividends
On January 25, 2017, the Board of Directors approved a regular quarterly dividend of $0.20 per share of common stock, payable on March 22, 2017 to stockholders of record on March 1, 2017.

Safe Harbor Statement
This press release contains forward-looking statements, which are made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ significantly from those projected, particularly with respect the Company’s financial results and guidance, the achievement of the full benefits of the DTS transaction and the expected strong earnings and cash flows in 2017. Material factors that may cause results to differ from the statements made include the plans or operations relating to the businesses of the Company; market or industry conditions; changes in patent laws, regulation or enforcement, or other factors that might affect the Company’s ability to protect or realize the value of its intellectual property; the expiration of license agreements and the cessation of related royalty income; the failure, inability or refusal of licensees to pay royalties; initiation, delays, setbacks or losses relating to the Company’s intellectual property or intellectual property litigations, or invalidation or limitation of key patents; fluctuations in operating results due to the timing of new license agreements and royalties, or due to legal costs; the risk of a decline in demand for semiconductors and products utilizing our audio and imaging technologies; failure by the industry to use technologies covered by the Company’s patents; the expiration of the Company’s patents; the Company’s ability to successfully complete and integrate acquisitions of businesses; the risk of loss of, or decreases in production orders from, customers of acquired businesses; financial and regulatory risks associated with the international nature of the Company’s businesses; failure of the Company’s products to achieve technological feasibility or profitability; failure to successfully commercialize the Company’s products; changes in demand for the products of the Company’s customers; limited opportunities to license technologies due to high concentration in applicable markets for such technologies; the impact of competing technologies on the demand for the Company’s technologies; failure to realize the anticipated benefits of the Company’s recent acquisition of DTS, Inc., including as a result of integrating the business of DTS; pricing trends, including the Company’s ability to achieve economies of scale; the expected amount and timing of cost savings and operating synergies; and other developments in the markets that the Company operates, as well as management’s response to any of the aforementioned factors. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on the forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this release.
The foregoing review of important factors should not be construed as exhaustive and should be read in conjunction with the other cautionary statements that are included herein and elsewhere, including the Risk Factors included in the Company’s recent reports on Form 10-K and Form 10-Q and other documents of the Company on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The Company’s SEC filings are available publicly on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. Any forward-looking statements made or incorporated by reference herein are qualified in their entirety by these cautionary statements, and there can be no assurance that the actual results or developments anticipated by the Company will be realized or, even if substantially realized, that they will have the expected consequences to, or effects on, the Company or its business or operations. Except to the extent required by applicable law, the Company undertakes no obligation to update publicly or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise.

Recurring and Episodic Revenue
Recurring revenue is defined as revenue from payments made pursuant to a license agreement or other agreement that are scheduled to occur over at least one year of time. Episodic revenue is revenue other than revenue payable over at least one year pursuant to a contract. Episodic revenue includes non-recurring engineering fees, initial license fees, back payments resulting from audits, damages awards from courts or other tribunals, and lump sum settlement payments. Although the royalty revenue reported by the Company’s licensees on a quarterly basis is generally not assured, for ease of reference, the Company refers to these revenues as “recurring revenue”.
Importantly, a source of episodic revenue may become a source of recurring revenue, when, for example, a company settles litigation with the Company by paying a settlement amount and entering into a license agreement that calls for an initial license fee and ongoing royalty payment over several years. In that scenario, the settlement amount would be episodic revenue, as would the initial license fee, and the ongoing royalties would be recurring revenue.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to disclosing financial results calculated in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), the Company’s earnings release contains non-GAAP financial measures adjusted for discontinued operations, restructuring and other exit costs, acquisition and related expenses, acquired intangible asset amortization, charges for acquired in-process research and development, stock-based compensation expense, impairment charges on long-lived assets and goodwill, expense reductions from insurance recoveries and related tax effects, using an estimated 31 percent effective tax rate on the pretax earnings of the Company. The non-GAAP financial measures also exclude the effects of FASB Accounting Standards Codification 718, “Stock Compensation” upon the number of diluted shares used in calculating non-GAAP earnings per share. Management believes that the non-GAAP measures used in this release provide investors with important perspectives into the Company’s ongoing business performance. The non-GAAP financial measures disclosed by the Company should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, and the financial results calculated in accordance with GAAP and reconciliations to those financial statements should be carefully evaluated. The non-GAAP financial measures used by the Company may be calculated differently from, and therefore may not be comparable to, similarly titled measures used by other companies. All financial data is presented on a GAAP basis except where the Company indicates its presentation is on a non-GAAP basis.
Set forth below are reconciliations of non-GAAP net income (loss) to the Company’s reported GAAP net income (loss) and non-GAAP earnings per share to GAAP earnings per share guidance for the first quarter of 2017.
