How to read this chart
60‑month range $38.12 – $393.78 · fair‑value band $232.91 – $462.32 · the $335.91 price screens above the $326.38 fair value. Green steps = our fair value per fiscal year (point-in-time, no hindsight). 2 fiscal years are left out: there the valuation rested on only a fraction of the usual models. Dashed = 300-day average. As of Sep 1, 2026.
Analysis
InterDigital Inc (IDCC) currently trades at $335.91, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $326.38, implying the stock looks roughly 2.9% fairly valued today. The Quality Score stands at 68/100 (solid quality), in the Technology sector. Bull case: the DCF Models group reads highest at a median of $511.61 per share, and 13 of the 26 models we run sit above the $335.91 price. Bear case: the Dividend Discount group reads lowest at $35.51, and 13 of the 26 models stay below the price. Evidence for this calculation is high.
Over the trailing twelve months, InterDigital Inc generated revenue of $829M at a net margin of 44.2%. Revenue declined 2.4% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 35.9%. The balance sheet holds a net cash position of $233M. Fundamentals as of Sep 1, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $232.91 (bear case) to $462.32 (bull case); at $335.91, the current price sits within that range. Bear and bull are the same models run on conservative and optimistic assumptions (margins, growth, valuation multiples), so a plausible valuation range, not a price target. The share trades about 18% below its 52-week high and 59% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Technology peers we cover trades at −38% fair-value upside, at −3%, IDCC screens cheaper than that median.
Fair Value models
This estimate rests on fiscal year 2025 figures, and about 8 months have passed since. In that time the company retained roughly $5.28 per share, which is 1.6 % of the fair value. The fair value deliberately does not add this in: the models value reported figures, not a projection.
Each model estimates fair value its own way; the Fair Value above is the evidence-weighted, family-balanced blend. Evidence (0–100) measures how completely this model’s inputs are available: well-fed models carry more weight in the blend. The spread across models is intentional, each one stresses a different value driver; dividend models, for instance, come out structurally low when payout is small. Every input is real reported data, nothing guessed.
All 26 models by family
Widest divergence: DCF Models ($511.61) versus Asset-Based ($28.55). Highest evidence: FCF DCF (76).

Quality Score breakdown
Of which business quality 68 · Market factors (momentum, volatility) 48
Non-valuation factor families (profitability, growth, cashflow, financial strength, momentum …), each academically grounded. Valuation itself sits in the Fair Value and is deliberately excluded here to avoid double-counting.
All values are scores from 0 to 100 (100 = best against fixed, research-based bands), not percentages. The three market factors (momentum, 52-week proximity, low volatility) are displayed but carry zero weight in the headline number: market sentiment is not a business property.
