Q4 fiscal 2025 licensing revenue is guided at $263 million–$293 million, implying a potential sequential decline from Q3’s total licensing-driven revenue and underscoring moderating end-market demand (PR Newswire 07/31/2025)

GAAP net margin in Q3 FY 2025 was only ~14.6% ($46 million net income on $316 million revenue), substantially below the full-year GAAP margin target of ~20%, indicating quarter-to-quarter profitability volatility (PR Newswire 07/31/2025)
