Outlook and guidance
Licensing pipeline, especially for Edge AI, remains healthy; five consecutive quarters with ~$15M+ licensing revenue.
Royalty revenue expected to grow sequentially in H2, driven by holiday season and share gains at a US OEM smartphone customer.
Management expects sequential and year-over-year growth in the second half of 2025, but overall 2025 revenue guidance was lowered to low-single digits growth due to macroeconomic uncertainty.
Q3 revenue expected between $26M-$30M; gross margin to improve by 1% sequentially; OpEx to remain stable.
Expect double-digit percentage increase in non-GAAP net income and EPS vs. 2024.

excellent app, it gives me free access to company earnings calls and annual reports. I also love the convenience of calls being available offline so I can listen in whilst doing other things and even when internet or WiFi isn't available.

One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.
