Adeia reports Q3 2026 earnings miss, cuts 2026 revenue guidance and appoints new CEO

Adeia Inc. posted third‑quarter 2026 revenue of $80.2 million and non‑GAAP EPS of $0.21, both falling short of consensus estimates. The company lowered its full‑year 2026 revenue outlook to a range of $375 million‑$415 million, citing delays in closing several media licensing deals. Dipti Vachani was introduced as the new chief executive officer, and the firm announced eight license agreements signed in the quarter.

Rosenblatt Securities kept a Buy rating but reduced its price target to $35, indicating that the guidance cut may pressure the stock despite the rating. The company’s cash and marketable securities of $127.7 million provide liquidity to navigate the delayed deals.
