equity, or $4.86 per share.”
“We are focused on protecting our intellectual property through
the execution of new license agreements, the renewal of existing
agreements, and by proactive enforcement. We also continue to
pursue thoughtful capital allocation to increase long-term
shareholder value, including, but not limited to, our $50 million
stock repurchase program. Today, we are pleased to declare our
second consecutive quarterly dividend of $0.03 cents per share,”
said Singer.
The second quarterly dividend will be paid on April 28, 2023 to
shareholders of record on April 13, 2023. Future quarterly
dividends will be subject to further review and approval by the
Board in accordance with applicable law. The Board reserves the
right to adjust or withdraw the quarterly dividend in future
periods as it reviews the Company’s capital allocation strategy
from time-to-time. In addition, the Company’s current stock
repurchase program allows for the repurchase of shares with an
aggregate value of up to $50 million.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Immersion reports all financial information required in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP),
but it believes that evaluating its ongoing operating results may
be difficult to understand if limited to reviewing only GAAP
financial measures. Immersion discloses this non-GAAP information,
such as Non-GAAP net income, Non-GAAP operating expenses and
Non-GAAP net income per diluted share because it is useful in
understanding the company’s performance as it excludes certain
non-cash expenses like stock-based compensation expense and other
special charges, such as deferred tax assets valuation allowance,
depreciation and restructuring costs, that many investors feel may
obscure the company’s true operating performance. Likewise,
management uses these non-GAAP financial measures to manage and
assess the profitability of its business. Non-GAAP financial
measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative
for, the Company’s reported results under GAAP. The non-GAAP
financial measures are not intended to be considered in isolation
or as a substitute for results prepared in accordance with GAAP.
Such non-GAAP financial measures are reconciled to their closest
GAAP financial measures in tables contained in this press
release.
Forward-looking Statements
This press release includes forward-looking statements within
the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). The
forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties.
Forward-looking statements are identified by words such as
“anticipates,” “believes,” “expects,” “intends,” “may,” “can,”
“will,” “places,” “estimates,” and other similar expressions.
However, these words are not the only way we identify
forward-looking statements. Examples of forward-looking statements
include any expectations, projections, or other characterizations
of future events, or circumstances, including but not limited to
statements about the Company’s focus on protecting its intellectual
property, either through the execution of new or renewal license
agreements or by proactive enforcement continuing to pursue
thoughtful capital allocation to increase long-term shareholder
value, and the timing of any dividend payments.
Because forward-looking statements relate to the future, they
are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks and changes in
circumstances that are difficult to predict and many of which are
outside of our control. Actual results could differ materially from
those projected in the forward-looking statements, therefore we
caution you not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking
statements. Important factors that could cause our actual results
and financial condition to differ materially from those indicated
in the forward-looking statements include, among others, the
following: the inability to predict the outcome of any litigation,
the costs associated with any litigation and the risks related to
our business, both direct and indirect, of initiating litigation,
the effects of the COVID-19 global pandemic on the Company and its
business, and on the business of its suppliers and customers;
unanticipated changes in the markets in which the Company operates;
the effects of the current macroeconomic climate (especially in
light of the ongoing adverse effects of the COVID-19 global
pandemic); delay in or failure to achieve adoption of or commercial
demand for the Company’s products or third party products
incorporating the Company’s technologies; the inability of
Immersion to renew existing licensing arrangements, or enter into
new licensing arrangements on favorable terms; the loss of a major
customer; the ability of Immersion to protect and enforce its
intellectual property rights and other factors. For a more detailed
discussion of these factors, and other factors that could cause
actual results to vary materially, interested parties should review
the risk factors listed in Immersion’s Annual Report on Form 10-K
for 2021 and in its most recent Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q which
are on file with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Any
forward-looking statements made by us in this press release speak
only as of the date of this press release, and Immersion does not
intend to update these forward-looking statements after the date of
this press release, except as required by law.
