FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

*This proxy statement includes forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). These forward-looking statements, which are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties, and assumptions, generally relate to the future events or our future financial or operating performance. In some cases, you can identify these statements by forward-looking words such as "believe," "may," "will," "estimate," "continue," "anticipate," "design," "intend," "expect," "could," "plan," "potential," "predict," "seek," "should," "would," "target," "project," "contemplate," or the negative version of these words and other comparable terminology that concern our expectations, strategy, plans, intentions, or projections. Forward-looking statements in this proxy statement may include, but are not limited to, statements regarding our anticipated corporate strategy and financial performance, including, without limitation, our expectations with respect to profitability, our corporate governance practices, our executive and director compensation program and our equity plan usage.* 

*We have based the forward-looking statements contained in this proxy statement primarily on our current expectations and projects about future events and trends that we believe may affect our business, financial condition, results of operation, prospects, business strategy and financial needs. These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties, and assumptions, including those described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on February 26, 2026, and subsequent filings with the SEC. These risks are not exhaustive. Moreover, we continue to operate in a very competitive and rapidly evolving environment, and new risks emerge from time to time. It is not possible for our management to predict all risks, nor can we assess the impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to materially differ from those contained in any forward-looking statements we may make. In light of these risks, uncertainties, and assumptions, the forward-looking events and circumstances discussed in this proxy statement may not occur and actual results could materially and adversely differ from those anticipated or implied and you should not place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements.* 

*In addition, forward-looking statements are based upon information available to us as of the date of this proxy statement, and while we believe such information forms a reasonable basis for such statements, such information may be limited or incomplete, and our statements should not be read to indicate that we have conducted an exhaustive inquiry into, or review of, all potentially available relevant information. These statements are inherently uncertain, and investors are cautioned not to unduly rely upon these statements.* 

*The forward-looking statements made in this proxy statement relate only to events as of the date on which the statements are made. We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statements made in this proxy statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this proxy statement or to reflect new information or the occurrence of unanticipated events or circumstances after the date of this proxy statement, except as required by law.*

**Executive Compensation**

***PHILOSOPHY***

The executive compensation program emphasizes performance-based compensation and the amount of compensation paid to our executives varies significantly based on overall strategic and financial performance. The primary objective of our executive compensation program is to build long-term stockholder value. Our approach to short-term compensation is to pay for current results and strategic actions taken that are expected to translate into improved future financial performance. Combined with our emphasis on long-term equity compensation, we believe this approach appropriately motivates, rewards and retains our executives, while providing strong alignment with our stockholders. We hold our executives to stringent performance standards and, as a result, our executive compensation plans are designed to pay competitively if strategic and financial performance objectives are met and less so if targeted performance levels are not achieved.

**XPERI** *- Proxy Statement*<sub>5</sub>

------

The Board has adopted the following practices related to executive compensation:

***Compensation Practices***

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Compensation recovery policy

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Minimum stock ownership guidelines

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•No single-trigger change in control agreements

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•No guaranteed bonuses under our annual bonus plan and extremely limited perquisites

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Prohibition on hedging, pledging and shorting shares

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•No stock option exchanges or repricing without stockholder approval

A more detailed discussion of our executive compensation program and practices is set forth under the heading "Executive Compensation and Related Information" below.

In summary, the Board unanimously recommends a vote FOR the election of each nominee for director, and FOR the ratification of the appointment of Deloitte & Touche LLP as the independent registered public accounting firm of the Company for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026.

How do I Vote My Shares?

*Voting in Advance of the Annual Meeting*

Stockholders whose shares are registered in their own names may vote by proxy by mail, over the Internet or by telephone. Instructions for voting by proxy over the Internet or by mail are set forth on the Notice Regarding the Internet Availability of Proxy Materials for the Annual Meeting mailed to you, or on the proxy card mailed to you if you chose to receive materials by mail. Instructions for voting by proxy by telephone are available on the Internet site identified on the Notice Regarding the Internet Availability of Proxy Materials for the Annual Meeting or on the proxy card mailed to you if you chose to receive materials by mail. The Internet and telephone voting facilities will close at 8:59 p.m., Pacific Time, on April 16, 2026. If you access http://www.proxyvote.com using the instructions on the Notice Regarding the Internet Availability of Proxy Materials for the Annual Meeting, you also will be given the option to elect to receive future proxy materials by e-mail or in printed form by mail. If you choose to receive future proxy materials by e-mail, you will receive an e-mail next year with instructions containing a link to the proxy materials and a link to the proxy voting site. Your election to receive future proxy materials by e-mail or in printed form by mail will remain in effect until you terminate such election.

**XPERI** *- Proxy Statement*<sub>7</sub>

------

If you sign and return a proxy card by mail but do not give voting instructions, your shares will be voted (1) FOR all seven of the nominees named in Proposal No. 1 in this proxy statement; and (2) FOR the ratification of the appointment of Deloitte & Touche LLP as the independent registered public accounting firm for the Company for the year ending December 31, 2026. As of the date of this proxy statement, our Board is not aware of any matter to be presented for action at the Annual Meeting other than the matters referred to above and does not intend to bring any other matters before the Annual Meeting. However, if other matters should come before the Annual Meeting, it is intended that the holders of proxies named in the Company's proxy card will vote thereon in their discretion.

If your shares are held in street name, the voting instruction form sent to you by your broker, bank or other nominee should indicate whether the institution has a process for beneficial holders to provide voting instructions over the Internet or by telephone. A number of banks and brokerage firms participate in a program that permits stockholders whose shares are held in street name to direct their vote over the Internet or by telephone. If your bank or brokerage firm gives you this opportunity, the voting instructions from the bank or brokerage firm that accompany this proxy statement will tell you how to use the Internet or telephone to direct the vote of shares held in your account. If your voting instruction form does not include Internet or telephone information, please complete and return the voting instruction form in the self-addressed, postage-paid envelope provided by your broker. Stockholders who vote by proxy over the Internet or by telephone need not return a proxy card or voting instruction form by mail, but may incur costs, such as usage charges, from telephone companies or Internet service providers.

*Voting in Person at the Annual Meeting*

If you plan to attend the Annual Meeting and wish to vote in person, you may vote by delivering your completed proxy card in person or you may vote by completing a ballot at the Annual Meeting. Please note, however, that if your shares are held in "street name," which means your shares are held of record by a broker, bank or other nominee, and you wish to vote at the Annual Meeting, you must obtain a legal proxy from the broker, bank or other nominee who is the record holder of your shares, authorizing you to vote at the Annual Meeting.

Can I Change My Vote After I Return My Proxy Card?

Yes, any proxy may be revoked at any time before it is exercised by filing with the Company's Secretary an instrument revoking it or by submitting prior to the time of the Annual Meeting a duly executed proxy bearing a later date. Stockholders who have voted by proxy over the Internet or by telephone or have executed and returned a proxy and who then attend the Annual Meeting and desire to vote at the Annual Meeting are requested to so notify the Secretary in writing prior to the time of the Annual Meeting. Attending the meeting will not revoke your proxy unless you vote at the Annual Meeting or send us a written notice of revocation. We request that all such written notices of revocation to the Company be addressed to Rebecca K. Marquez, Secretary, Xperi Inc., at the address of our principal executive offices at 2190 Gold Street, San Jose, CA 95002. Our telephone number is (408) 519-9100. Stockholders may also revoke their proxy by granting a subsequent proxy over the Internet or by telephone.

What Does it Mean if I Get More than One Proxy Card?

If your shares are registered differently or are held in more than one account at the transfer agent and/or with banks or brokers, you may receive more than one Internet Notice or set of proxy materials. Please vote all of your shares. To ensure that all of your shares are voted, for each Internet Notice or set of proxy materials, please submit your proxy by phone, via the Internet, or, if you received printed copies of the proxy materials, by signing, dating and returning the enclosed proxy card in the enclosed envelope.

What does "Householding" mean and How Does it Affect Me?

We have adopted a procedure approved by the SEC known as "householding." This procedure allows multiple stockholders residing at the same address the convenience of receiving a single copy of our 2025 Annual Report and proxy statement, if they have elected to receive proxy materials by mail. This allows us to save money by reducing the number of documents we must print and mail, and helps protect the environment. Householding is available to both registered stockholders (i.e., those stockholders with certificates registered in their name) and street name holders (i.e., those stockholders who hold their shares through a brokerage).

**XPERI** *- Proxy Statement*<sub>8</sub>

------

If you are a registered stockholder that has requested to receive proxy materials by mail and you have consented to our mailing of proxy materials and other stockholder information only to one account in your household, as identified by you, we will deliver or mail a single copy of our 2025 Annual Report and proxy statement for all registered stockholders residing at the same address. Your consent will be perpetual unless you revoke it, which you may do at any time by contacting the Householding Department of Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. at 51 Mercedes Way, Edgewood, NY 11717, or by calling (866) 540-7095. If you revoke your consent, we will begin sending you individual copies of future mailings of these documents within 30 days after we receive your revocation notice. If you received a householded mailing this year, and you would like to have additional copies of our 2025 Annual Report and proxy statement mailed to you, please call Investor Relations at (408) 519-9100, send an e-mail request to IR@xperi.com, or write to c/o Investor Relations, Xperi Inc., 2190 Gold Street, San Jose, CA 95002 and we will promptly mail the requested copy.

Registered stockholders that have requested to receive proxy materials by mail and have not consented to householding will continue to receive copies of our Annual Reports on Form 10-K and our proxy statements for each registered stockholder residing at the same address. As a registered stockholder, you may elect to participate in householding and receive only a single copy of the Annual Reports on Form 10-K and proxy statements for all registered stockholders residing at the same address by contacting Broadridge as outlined above.

Stockholders who hold their shares through a brokerage may elect to participate in householding or revoke their consent to participate in householding by contacting their respective brokers.

What is a Quorum?

A quorum of stockholders is necessary to take action at the Annual Meeting. Stockholders representing a majority in voting power of the stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote, present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting will constitute a quorum. We will appoint an election inspector for the meeting to determine whether or not a quorum is present and to tabulate votes cast by proxy or in person at the Annual Meeting. If a quorum is not present or represented at the scheduled time of the Annual Meeting, the Chairperson of the Annual Meeting may adjourn the meeting.

What Vote is Required to Approve Each Proposal?

**Proposal 1—Election of Directors**

The Company has adopted a majority vote standard for non-contested director elections and a plurality vote standard for contested director elections. In an uncontested election, where a quorum is present, each director will be elected by the affirmative vote of a majority of votes cast with respect to such director by the shares represented and entitled to vote therefor at the Annual Meeting. Abstentions and broker non-votes will not be counted as votes cast, and therefore will have no effect on the outcome of the election of directors. The voting standard is discussed further under the section entitled "Proposal No. 1—Election of Directors—Required Vote and Board of Directors' Recommendation."

**Proposal 2—Ratification of Appointment of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm**

The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on the proposal is required to ratify the appointment of Deloitte & Touche LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm. Abstentions have the same effect as votes against this proposal. As discussed below, we do not expect to have any broker non-votes for this proposal because Proposal 2 is considered a "routine" matter for which brokers have discretionary authority to vote on behalf of the beneficial owners.

**XPERI** *- Proxy Statement*<sub>9</sub>

------

What are Broker Non-Votes?

If your shares are held by a broker, bank or other stockholder of record, in nominee name or otherwise (typically referred to as being held in "street name") and you do not instruct your broker how to vote your shares, your broker will not have discretion to vote your shares on any of the non-routine matters. A broker non-vote occurs when a broker, bank, or other stockholder of record, exercising its fiduciary powers, submits a proxy for the Annual Meeting but does not vote on a particular proposal because such holder does not have discretionary voting authority with respect to that proposal and has not received voting instructions from the beneficial owner. Under the rules that govern brokers, brokers have the discretion to vote on routine matters, but not on non-routine matters. At the Annual Meeting, Proposal 1 (Election of Directors) is considered a non-routine matter and therefore brokers do not have the discretion to vote and broker non-votes may occur. Proposal 2, the ratification of the appointment of Deloitte & Touche LLP as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm, is treated as a routine matter and therefore we do not expect any broker non-votes for Proposal 2.

Broker non-votes will be counted as shares present for the purpose of determining the presence of a quorum. We encourage you to provide instructions to your broker regarding the voting of your shares.

What is an Abstention?

An abstention represents a stockholder's affirmative choice to decline to vote on a proposal. Proxies marked "abstain" will be counted as shares present for the purpose of determining the presence of a quorum.

How Will Xperi Solicit Proxies?

The accompanying proxy is solicited by and on behalf of our Board of Directors, whose Notice of Annual Meeting is attached to this Proxy Statement. The costs and expenses of preparing and mailing proxy solicitation materials for the Annual Meeting and other costs of the proxy solicitation will be borne by us. Certain of our officers, employees and third parties may also solicit the submission of proxies authorizing the voting of shares in accordance with the Board of Directors' recommendations. Such solicitations may be made by telephone, email or personal solicitation. No additional compensation will be paid to officers, directors or regular employees for such services. We may pay fees to other third-party solicitors. We will reimburse banks, brokerage firms and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by them in sending proxy material to stockholders.

Will there be a Question and Answer session at the Annual Meeting?

Stockholders who attend the Annual Meeting will have an opportunity ask questions after the conclusion of the formal portion of the meeting. We intend to answer appropriate questions that are pertinent to the Company as time permits. Questions should be succinct and only cover a single topic. We will endeavor to address as many questions as time permits, and will not address questions that are, among other things:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•irrelevant to the business of the Company or to the business of the Annual Meeting;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•related to material non-public information of the Company, including the status or results of our business since our last Annual Report on Form 10-K;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•related to any pending, threatened or ongoing litigation;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•related to personal grievances;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•derogatory references to individuals or that are otherwise in bad taste;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•substantially repetitious of questions already submitted by another stockholder;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•in excess of the two question limit;

# Proposal 1—Election of Directors
The Board of Directors has nominated the seven (7) individuals identified under "Director Nominees" below for election as directors, all of whom are currently directors of the Company. Each of the nominees has agreed to be named in this proxy statement and to serve as a director if elected. Our Board of Directors has fixed the number of directors at seven (7) and is currently comprised of the below referenced (7) members. Directors are elected at each annual meeting and hold office until their successors are duly elected and qualified at the next annual meeting. In the absence of instructions to the contrary, the persons named as proxy holders in the accompanying proxy intend to vote in favor of the election of the seven (7) nominees designated below to serve until the 2027 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the "2027 Annual Meeting") and until their respective successors shall have been duly elected and qualified. Each nominee has consented to being named in this proxy statement and to serve, if elected. If any nominee should become unable to serve or for good cause will not serve as a director, it is intended that the proxies will be voted for any substitute nominee designated by the Board or the Board may elect to reduce its size. The Board has no reason to believe that the nominees named below will be unable to serve if elected.

The nominees for election to the Board of Directors, including their principal occupations, business experience and other biographical information, are as follows:

**REQUIRED VOTE AND BOARD OF DIRECTORS' RECOMMENDATION**

Our amended and restated bylaws (the "Bylaws") provide that, in an uncontested election, where a quorum is present, each director will be elected by the affirmative vote of a majority of votes cast with respect to such director by the shares represented and entitled to vote therefor at the Annual Meeting. A "majority of votes cast" means that the number of shares voted "for" a candidate for director exceeds the number of votes cast "against" that director. Abstentions and broker non-votes will not be counted as votes cast, and therefore will have no effect on the outcome of the election of directors.

Our Corporate Governance Guidelines include a director resignation policy providing that, in uncontested elections, a director candidate, nominee or appointee who receives more votes "against" election than votes "for" election (the "Subject Director") is expected to tender a written offer of resignation to the Board. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee or, if one or more of the members of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is a Subject Director or if the Board determines that a committee other than the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee should recommend whether to accept the Subject Director's resignation, a committee consisting solely of independent directors who are not Subject Directors, will promptly consider the director's offer of resignation and recommend to the Board whether to accept or reject it. The Board will act on the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee's recommendation within 90 days after receiving it.

Our Bylaws further provide that, in a Contested Election (as defined in the Bylaws), each director will be elected by a plurality of the votes cast. This means that the nominees receiving the largest number of affirmative votes will be elected.

**The Board of Directors unanimously recommends that the stockholders vote "FOR" the election of each of Darcy Antonellis, Laura J. Durr, Jeremi T. Gorman, David C. Habiger, Jon E. Kirchner, Roderick K. Randall, and Christopher Seams.**

Governance of the Company

Pursuant to the Delaware General Corporation Law and the Bylaws, our business, property and other affairs are managed by or under the direction of the Board of Directors and its committees. Members of the Board are kept informed of our business through discussions with our Chief Executive Officer and other officers and advisors, by reviewing materials provided to them and by participating in meetings of the Board and its committees.

**NON-EXECUTIVE CHAIRMAN AND BOARD LEADERSHIP**

The Corporate Governance Guidelines provide that the Board of Directors is free to choose its chairperson in any way that it considers to be in the best interests of the Company.

We believe that separating the roles of Chief Executive Officer and Chair of the Board is in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders because it provides the appropriate balance between strategy development and oversight and accountability of management. However, our Corporate Governance Guidelines do not require the separation of the offices of the Chair of the Board and the Chief Executive Officer. If the Chair is not an "independent director" as such term is defined in applicable NYSE rules, pursuant to the Corporate Governance Guidelines, the Company's independent directors will designate one of the independent directors on the Board to serve as a lead independent director.

The responsibilities of the lead independent director include:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•serving as a liaison between the independent directors and the Chief Executive Officer and Chair;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•facilitating discussion and open dialogue among the independent directors during Board meetings, executive sessions and outside of Board meetings;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•presiding over all meetings of the Board at which the Chair is not present and at each such executive session;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•calling meetings of the independent directors;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•working with the Chair to develop and approve Board meeting agendas, materials and schedules, including to ensure that there is sufficient time for discussion of all agenda items; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•ensuring availability for consultation and direct communication with significant stockholders of the Company, if requested and in coordination with management.

**BOARD ROLE IN RISK MANAGEMENT**

The Board of Directors oversees an enterprise-wide approach to risk management, designed to support the achievement of organizational objectives, including strategic objectives, to improve long-term organizational performance and enhance stockholder value. Risk management includes not only understanding company-specific risks and the steps management implements to manage those risks, but also what level of risk is acceptable and appropriate for the Company. Management is responsible for establishing our business strategy, identifying and assessing the related risks and implementing appropriate risk management practices. The Board of Directors reviews our business strategy and management's assessment of the related risk and discusses with management the appropriate level of risk for the Company. For example, the Board of Directors annually reviews management's enterprise risk management assessment, which is designed to: (1) identify risks that can negatively impact the Company's ability to achieve its business objectives; (2) estimate the magnitude of the potential risks; and (3) determine approaches to mitigate the identified risks. In addition, the Board of Directors during the Company's quarterly Board meetings regularly advises and directs management with respect to general risk management strategy and the most significant risks facing us, including risks related to strategy, liquidity, operations, compliance, litigation, and our long-term strategic planning, among others.

The Audit Committee oversees the Company's major financial risk exposures, including monitoring the Company's financial condition and investments, the integrity of the Company's financial statements, accounting matters, planning regarding business continuity and cybersecurity. The Audit Committee receives periodic internal controls and related assessments from the Company's finance department, internal audit function and, if applicable, an annual attestation report on internal control over financial reporting from the Company's independent registered public accounting firm. The Audit Committee also assists the Board of Directors in fulfilling its oversight responsibility with respect to compliance matters and meets at least quarterly with our finance department, internal auditor, independent registered public accounting firm, and internal or external legal counsel to discuss risks related to our financial reporting function. In addition, the Audit Committee monitors compliance with the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics Policy, and our corporate compliance hotline. The Audit Committee also discusses other risk assessment and risk management policies of the Company periodically with management.

The Compensation Committee reviews the Company's compensation arrangements for employees to evaluate whether incentive and other forms of pay encourage unnecessary or excessive risk taking, and reviews the relationship between risk management policies and practices, corporate strategy and the Company's compensation arrangements.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee oversees governance-related risks by working with management to establish and maintain corporate governance guidelines applicable to the Company, and making recommendations regarding director nominees, the determination of director independence, Board leadership structure, membership on Board committees, and succession planning. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee also oversees the evaluation of the Board as a whole.

**DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE**

The listing rules of the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") generally require that a majority of the members of a listed company's board of directors be independent. In addition, the NYSE rules generally require that, subject to specified exceptions, each member of a listed company's audit, compensation and nominating and corporate governance committees be independent.

In addition, audit committee members must satisfy the independence criteria set forth in Rule 10A-3 under the Exchange Act. To be considered independent for purposes of Rule 10A-3, a member of an audit committee of a listed company may not, other than in his or her capacity as a member of the audit committee, the board of directors or any other board committee: accept, directly or indirectly, any consulting, advisory or other compensatory fee from the listed company or any of its subsidiaries, or be an affiliated person of the listed company or any of its subsidiaries.

The Board has determined that all of the Company's directors nominated for election, other than Mr. Kirchner, qualify as independent directors in accordance with the applicable NYSE rules. In making these determinations, the Board reviewed and discussed information provided by the directors and the Company with regard to each director's business and personal activities and relationships as they may relate to the Company and our management, including that Mr. Habiger was the CEO of J.D. Power, with which we previously had a commercial relationship. The Board has determined that the Company's prior relationship with J.D. Power does not compromise Mr. Habiger's independence under the NYSE rules. Furthermore, the Board has determined that each member of the Audit Committee meets the enhanced independence standards for serving on an audit committee under Rule 10A-3 and the NYSE rules, and that each member of the Compensation Committee meets the NYSE's heightened independence standards for members of a compensation committee and qualifies as a "non-employee director" as defined in Rule 16b-3 of the Exchange Act.

There are no family relationships between any of the Company's directors or executive officers and any of the other directors or executive officers.

During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, the Board of Directors held a total of six (6) meetings. Each director attended at least 75% of the aggregate of the total number of Board meetings and total number of meetings of Board committees on which such director served during the time he or she served on the Board or committees.

The Board of Directors has a standing Audit Committee, Compensation Committee and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. The Audit Committee has been established in accordance with Section 3(a)(58)(A) of the Exchange Act. Each of our Audit Committee, Compensation Committee and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is composed entirely of independent directors in accordance with applicable NYSE rules. Furthermore, each member of our Audit Committee meets the enhanced independence standards established for serving on an audit committee under Rule 10A-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act and the NYSE rules. The members of the Audit Committee meet the requirements for financial literacy under the applicable NYSE rules. In addition, the Board of Directors has further determined that each of Ms. Durr, Chair of the Audit Committee, Ms. Antonellis, Mr. Habiger, and Mr. Seams is an "Audit Committee Financial Expert," as such term is defined in Item 407(d)(5) of Regulation S-K promulgated by the SEC. No Audit Committee member currently serves on the audit committee of more than three public companies. All members of the Compensation Committee meet the NYSE's heightened independence standards for members of a compensation committee and each member of the Compensation Committee qualifies as a "non-employee director" as defined in Rule 16b-3 of the Exchange Act. The Board has adopted a written charter for each of these committees.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•experience in corporate governance, such as a senior executive or former senior executive of a publicly-held company;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•experience in the Company's industry;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•experience as a board member of other publicly-held companies; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•technical expertise in an area of the Company's operations.

**Nomination to the Board of Directors**

Candidates for nomination to the Board are selected by the Board based on the recommendation of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee in accordance with the committee's charter, the Charter, the Bylaws, the Corporate Governance Guidelines, and the criteria approved by the Board regarding director candidate qualifications.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee evaluates each individual in the context of the Board as a whole, with the objective of assembling a Board that can best perpetuate the success of the Company and represent stockholder interests through the exercise of sound judgment using its diversity of experience.

Prior to each annual meeting of stockholders at which directors are to be elected, and whenever there is otherwise a vacancy on the Board of Directors, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will consider incumbent Board members and other well-qualified individuals as potential director nominees and director candidates, as applicable. To facilitate the search process, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee may solicit current directors and executives of the Company for the names of potentially qualified candidates or ask directors and executives to pursue their own business contacts for the names of potentially qualified candidates. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee may also consult with outside advisors or retain search firms to assist in the search for qualified candidates, or consider director candidates recommended by our stockholders. If the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee determines to retain an executive search firm to identify Board candidates, it will identify the search firm and approve the search firm's fees and other retention terms and will specify for the search firm the criteria to use in identifying potential candidates, consistent with the director qualification criteria described below. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will review the backgrounds of each potential candidate, evaluate candidates' independence from the Company and potential conflicts of interest and determine if candidates meet the qualifications desired by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee for candidates for election as a director. Management may assist the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee in the review process at its direction. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will select the candidate or candidates it believes are the most qualified to recommend to the Board for selection as a director nominee.

The Committee will consider candidates recommended by our stockholders as it deems appropriate in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee Charter. Such recommendations must be submitted in writing to the Chair of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, c/o Secretary, Xperi Inc., 2190 Gold Street, San Jose, California 95002. Candidates recommended by the stockholders are evaluated in the same manner as candidates identified by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee.

Other Committees

Our Board of Directors may establish other committees as it deems necessary or appropriate from time to time.

**DIRECTOR ATTENDANCE AT ANNUAL MEETINGS**

Directors are encouraged to attend the Annual Meeting of Stockholders. All members of the Board participated in the 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders in their capacity as directors of the Company.

**HOW WE COMMUNICATE WITH AND LISTEN TO YOU** 

We believe that effective corporate governance includes year-round engagement with our stockholders and other stakeholders. We meet regularly with our stockholders to discuss our business strategy, performance, compensation philosophy, corporate governance, and corporate responsibility topics. We engage with many of our large stockholders multiple times a year, both on an ad hoc basis and regularly in conjunction with our quarterly earnings announcements. Our Investor Relations team also has touchpoints with smaller stockholders each year. We find it beneficial to have ongoing dialogue with our stockholders throughout the year on a full range of topics (instead of engaging with stockholders only prior to our annual meeting on issues to be voted on in the proxy statement).

Our direct engagement with stockholders helps us better understand our stockholders' priorities, perspectives, and issues of concern, allows us to elaborate on our many initiatives and practices, and informs the Board's deliberations. We take insights from this feedback into consideration and regularly share them with the Board as we review and evolve our practices and disclosures.

The Board has created a number of other ways for interested parties to contact us and provide input, including:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Attending the Annual Meeting and submitting questions to be addressed during the meeting;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Attending quarterly earnings calls, investor conferences and other similar opportunities;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Calling the Company number, at +1-408-519-9100;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Sending an email to an individual director, a committee, or the full Board at IR@xperi.com;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Mailing a letter to an individual director, a committee, or the full Board at 2190 Gold Street, San Jose, California 95002, Attn: Corporate Secretary; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Requesting a stockholder engagement meeting via one of the means outlined here.

The Corporate Secretary will review all correspondence addressed to the Board, or any individual Board member, for any inappropriate correspondence and any correspondence more suitably directed to management. However, the Corporate Secretary will summarize all correspondence not forwarded to the Board and make the correspondence available to the Board for its review at the Board's request. The Corporate Secretary will forward appropriate correspondence from interested parties, including stockholders, communications to the Board prior to the next regularly scheduled meeting of the Board following the receipt of the correspondence.

**CODE OF BUSINESS CONDUCT AND ETHICS POLICY** 

The Company has adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics Policy that applies to all members of the Board of Directors, officers and employees, including our principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions. The Code of Business Conduct and Ethics Policy is posted on the "Investor Relations" section of our website, which is located at investor.xperi.com under "Governance Documents" in the "Governance" section of our website. We intend to satisfy the disclosure requirement

under applicable SEC and NYSE disclosure requirements regarding amendments to, or waivers of, a provision of the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics by posting such information on our website at the address and location specified above.

**ANTI-PLEDGING AND ANTI-HEDGING POLICIES** 

The Company has an insider trading policy that prohibits all directors, employees (including officers) and consultants of the Company (including any entities whose securities trading decisions they control or influence) from purchasing the Company's stock on margin, pledging the Company's stock to secure margin or other loans, engaging in short sales of the Company's stock, buying or selling put or call options on the Company's stock, or entering into other derivative contracts or hedging transactions, and placing standing or limit orders on the Company's securities.

**EXECUTIVE SESSIONS** 

Our independent directors meet in executive session without management directors or other members of management present on a regularly scheduled basis. Each executive session of the non-management and independent directors is presided over by the Chair of the Board (or Lead Independent Director, in the case the Chair of the Board is not an independent director).

**INSIDER TRADING POLICIES AND PROCEDURES** 

The Board has adopted an insider trading policy that governs the purchase, sale and/or other disposition of the Company's securities by directors, officers and other employees of the Company. We believe our insider trading policy is reasonably designed to promote compliance with insider trading laws, rules and regulations, as well as listing standards applicable to the Company. It is also our policy to comply with applicable insider trading laws and regulations with respect to transactions in our own securities. A copy of our insider trading policy is filed as Exhibit 19.1 to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 filed with the SEC on February 26, 2026.

Under the Company's director compensation program, we pay each of our non-employee directors an annual retainer of $50,000. We pay our non-executive Chair of the Board an additional annual retainer of $50,000. In addition, we pay each of our non-employee directors the following annual retainers for their service as a member, or chair, as applicable, of our Board committees:

---

| **Annual Retainers for Committee Members:** |  |

All Board and committee retainers are paid in equal quarterly installments over the course of each year of a director's service on the Board or applicable committee. Our Chief Executive Officer does not receive any additional compensation for serving as a director.

We reimburse our non-employee directors for reasonable travel and other expenses related to Company meetings or director education.

In addition, on an annual basis, each non-employee director who continues to serve as a non-employee director following each annual meeting of stockholders will receive an annual grant of restricted stock units ("RSUs") covering shares of our common stock under our stockholder-approved equity plan. The number of shares of common stock subject to the RSU award will be determined by dividing (1) $190,000 by (2) the fair market value per share of our common stock on the date of grant. A non-employee director who is initially appointed after any annual meeting of stockholders will receive an RSU award on the date of such director's initial appointment to the Board of Directors equal to the pro-rated amount of the annual grant. These annual RSU awards (or any pro-rated grants for directors initially appointed between annual meetings) will vest on the earlier to occur of the first anniversary of the date of grant or the next annual meeting of stockholders.

Specifically, this executive compensation section provides an overview of our executive compensation philosophy, the overall objectives of our executive compensation programs and each compensation component that we provide. The discussion set forth in this section may contain forward-looking statements that are based on our current plans, considerations, expectations and determinations regarding future compensation programs. Actual compensation programs that we adopt following the date of this proxy statement may differ materially from the currently planned programs summarized in this discussion.

As an "emerging growth company" under the rules of the SEC, we have elected to comply with the scaled disclosure requirements applicable to emerging growth companies, including reduced narrative and tabular disclosure obligations regarding our executive compensation program.

**Compensation Philosophy - Pay For Performance**

We have designed our executive compensation program to reward our executive officers, including the NEOs, in alignment with the overall strategic and financial performance of the Company with the ultimate goal of building long-term stockholder value. We construct our compensation packages to provide remuneration sufficient to attract, retain and motivate our executives to exert their best efforts in the highly competitive environments in which we operate. The compensation of our NEOs is comprised of base salaries, short-term performance-based cash incentives, and long-term incentives delivered in the form of equity awards that are earned over a multi-year period.

Our incentive compensation is largely determined by successful performance against key operational and financial measures and is designed to promote long-term stockholder value. In consultation with the Compensation Committee's independent compensation consultant, Compensia Inc., the Compensation Committee identifies key metrics to measure and evaluate performance: stock price, financial, strategic, and operational metrics. To create a successful link between our performance and our employees' compensation, including our NEOs, these stock price, financial, strategic, and operational metrics are utilized in the structuring and calculation of Xperi's incentive compensation, including potential annual cash bonuses and long-term equity award payouts. As a result, our executive compensation program is intended to closely align with our business strategies, reinforce our "pay-for-performance" philosophy, and reflect competitive practices in regard to executive compensation.

Our approach to short-term compensation is to pay for current results and strategic actions taken that are expected to translate into improved future financial performance. Combined with our emphasis on long-term equity compensation, we believe this approach appropriately motivates, rewards and retains our executives, while providing strong alignment with our stockholders. We hold our executives to stringent performance standards and, as a result, our executive compensation plans are designed to pay competitively if strategic and financial performance objectives are met and less so if variable pay goals are missed.

**2025 Compensation Highlights** 

Our executive compensation program plays an important role in attracting, retaining and rewarding individuals with the ability and vision to lead our business, drive our long-term success and deliver stockholder value. For our fiscal

year ended December 31, 2025, the key highlights of our executive compensation program included:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•**Base Salaries.** Base salary is a customary, fixed element of compensation intended to attract and retain our executives. For fiscal year 2025, there were no increases in base salaries for our NEOs.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•**Pay-for-Performance - Incentive Bonus Payments.** Our cash incentive program is a performance-based, at-risk component of our executives' compensation, structured to pay only when rigorous goals are achieved. For fiscal year 2025, there were no increases in target bonuses for our NEOs. Furthermore, despite having success in several areas of our business, we did not meet the overall financial targets established for the fiscal year. As a result, the short-term incentive payments to Messrs. Kirchner, Milne, and Skaaden were funded at 49%, 91%, and 44%, respectively, of target as described in the "Performance-Based Cash Incentive Bonuses" section.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•**Pay-for-Performance - Performance-Based RSUs.** Consistent with our pay-for-performance philosophy, our NEOs forfeited all of the performance-based restricted stock units ("PSUs") granted in 2022 for which the performance period ended during 2025 (the "2022 PSUs") as a result of not meeting the stock price growth targets. The NEOs earned 50% of the PSUs granted in July 2023 (the "July 2023 PSUs") as a result of achieving the performance targets related to product deployment and Non-GAAP Operating Margin. The other 50% of the July 2023 PSUs was forfeited since the stock price growth target was not met.

**Emphasis on Pay-for-Performance Reflected in CEO Compensation**

Our Chief Executive Officer's compensation reflects a strong connection between pay and performance. The table below shows the compensation of our Chief Executive Officer and compares 2025 target compensation versus his earned compensation for 2025.

![img102459364_23.jpg](img102459364_23.jpg)

The target compensation chart above includes our CEO's base salary as of the last day of the fiscal year, the short-term incentive award opportunity at target, and long-term incentive compensation based on the grant date fair value of the underlying equity awards at target, in the case of PSU awards. The earned compensation chart includes the CEO's actual base salary earned during the fiscal year, the actual bonus award paid, and the vesting date fair market value of the equity awards that vested during the year.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1)The dollar amount reported in the Stock Awards column is equal to the aggregate grant-date fair value of the RSUs and PSUs granted to the NEOs during each reported fiscal year, calculated in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718 without taking into account any estimated forfeitures related to service-vesting conditions. The assumptions used in the calculation of the FASB ASC Topic 718 grant-date fair value of each such award are set forth in Note 13 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 filed with the SEC on February 26, 2026. For time-based RSUs, the grant-date fair value was determined using the closing share price of the Company's common stock on the date of grant. For PSUs that vest based on company-designated performance targets, the grant-date fair value was determined using the closing share price of the Company's common stock on the date of grant, as adjusted based on the probability of achievement on the date of grant. For the PSUs granted in 2024 and 2025 based on company-designated performance targets, the probability was deemed to be achievable at 100% levels on the date of grant. The grant-date fair value of PSUs that vest based on Company stock price appreciation was estimated utilizing the Monte-Carlo valuation model, using the fair value of the Company's common stock with the effect of market conditions on the date of grant, and assumes the performance goals will be attained. The grant-date fair values of the PSUs reflected in the table above assuming maximum attainment of the performance goals are as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3)The amounts in the "All Other Compensation" column for fiscal year 2025 consist of the following payments and benefits paid by the Company to or on behalf of each of Mr. Kirchner and Mr. Skaaden: Section 401(k) plan employer match - $10,500; life insurance premiums - $1,008; and for Mr. Milne: Section 401(k) plan employer match - $8,661; life insurance premiums - $1,008.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1)Each RSU award vests as follows: 25% of the shares subject to the equity awards will vest annually following the grant date, to the extent the NEO continues in service as an employee, consultant or director of the Company on the vesting dates. All time-based RSU awards are subject to acceleration of vesting pursuant to agreements entered into with the respective NEO as described and referenced below in the "Employment Contracts, Termination of Employment Arrangements, and Change of Control Arrangements" section. Equity awards listed for Messrs. Kirchner, Milne and Skaaden with a grant date prior to October 1, 2022 were granted by the Former Parent. In connection with the Separation, each award was converted into either both Xperi and Former Parent equity awards or an equity award of only Xperi stock, with certain adjustments to the underlying shares and terms of outstanding awards to preserve the aggregate intrinsic value of each award immediately after the Separation when compared to the aggregate intrinsic value immediately prior to the Separation. For all pre-Separation awards, this table reflects the converted Xperi RSU awards under the Xperi 2022 Equity Incentive Plan.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2)This market value is based on the December 31, 2025 closing price (the last trading day in 2025) of our common stock of $5.86 per share as reported by the New York Stock Exchange.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3)Represents PSU awards granted to the NEOs with a three-year performance period. The value and the vesting of such PSUs are generally linked to one or more performance goals and/or certain market conditions determined by the Company over the three-year performance period, and may range from zero to 200% of the target number of shares under the award. The PSUs are reported in the table above based on achieving "target" performance. The PSUs are subject to acceleration of vesting pursuant to agreements entered into with the NEOs as described below in the "Employment Contracts, Termination of Employment Arrangements and Change of Control Arrangements" section.

<u>Narrative Discussion of Compensation Tables</u> 

**COMPENSATION DETERMINATION PROCESS**

 *Role of the Compensation Committee*

The Compensation Committee approves the performance goals and objectives reflected in our incentive compensation programs, stays informed on competitive market levels of compensation, and based on evaluations provided by management, establishes compensation for our executive officers that correspond to our goals and objectives. The Compensation Committee reviews and approves, or recommends to the Board of Directors, corporate goals and objectives relating to the compensation of the Chief Executive Officer and other executive officers, and evaluates the performance of the Chief Executive Officer and other executive officers in light of these goals and objectives. The Compensation Committee also recommends to the Board of Directors compensation levels for the non-employee members of the Board of Directors.

The Compensation Committee meets following the end of the fiscal year to consider and approve executive officer

bonuses earned under the prior fiscal year's compensation program and approve the base salary and cash bonus compensation program for the next fiscal year. The Compensation Committee also meets annually to determine executive officer equity awards. During the process, the Compensation Committee considers such factors as the performance of the executive officers as well as an analysis of competitive market and industry data, various compensation metrics intended to further the Company's business objectives and program design "best practices". The Compensation Committee considers the input and recommendations of its independent compensation consultant as part of the process and meets without any members of management present in its discretion. The Compensation Committee met four times during fiscal year 2025.

The Compensation Committee regularly assesses our compensation structure, programs, policies and practices. Pursuant to this assessment, the Compensation Committee believes that the market level, balance of cash and equity compensation, and the performance metrics used in our executive compensation program are effective.

 *Role of Our Management* 

At the Compensation Committee's request, the Company's CEO, with the assistance and support of the Company's Chief Human Resources Officer, aids the Compensation Committee by providing annual recommendations regarding the compensation of the Company's other executives, including the other NEOs. The Compensation Committee considers, but is not bound to accept, our CEO's input given his direct knowledge of each executive's performance and contributions. The Compensation Committee sets the compensation of the Company's other executive officers after considering our CEO's input, and any such deliberation or decision regarding executive compensation may be made without him present. Our CEO is not present when the Compensation Committee deliberates and determines his compensation.

 *Role of Compensation Consultant and Comparable Market Information*

At the Compensation Committee's request, its independent compensation consultant, Compensia Inc., aids the Compensation Committee by providing competitive market and industry data and other analyses as well as other information regarding the executive compensation program and the annual compensation of the Company's NEOs and other executive officers. The Compensation Committee sets the compensation of the NEOs and other executive officers after considering its independent compensation consultant's input.

The Compensation Committee reviews competitive compensation practices and the financial performance of comparable companies on a regular basis. This analysis provides the necessary background to the Compensation Committee to ensure that compensation opportunities for our executive officers are competitive with compensation practices among comparable companies and that the actual compensation paid to our executive officers is appropriately aligned with our performance in the past year.

At the end of 2024, Compensia worked with the Compensation Committee to review and update the peer group of companies to be used in the 2025 competitive analysis of executive compensation. The companies comprising the peer group are selected because the Compensation Committee, management and Compensia believe they are representative of the type of companies with which we currently, and may in the future, compete for executive talent. In selecting peer companies, we used a number of targeted criteria designed to reflect market best practices, stockholder guidelines, and refinement criteria tailored to our industry and business model. Given the limited number of directly comparable companies from a business perspective, the criteria were expanded in some cases to include companies that the Compensation Committee considered to be a close fit in terms of business focus and/or with which we might compete for executive talent. As a result, some companies may not satisfy all of the selection criteria. Our peer group was selected after considering the following criteria:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•**Industry**: Companies in the media/entertainment technology, software, and consumer electronics industries.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•**Revenue (last four quarters)**: Companies with revenues that were 0.4x to 2.5x our revenue (approximately $202 million to $1.3 billion).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•**Market Capitalization**: Companies with market capitalization that was generally within a range of 0.3x to 3.0x our market capitalization (approximately $135 million to $1.2 billion).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•**Geographic Location**: Companies based in the U.S. with an emphasis on firms headquartered in the San Francisco Bay Area.

The updated peer group reflects the removal of Commvault Systems, InterDigital, MicroStrategy, Semtech, DZS, and ON24, and the addition of Digital Turbine, Ribbon Communications, and Turtle Beach.

Although we maintain the peer group for executive compensation and performance reference purposes, the peer group compensation data is limited to publicly available information and therefore does not necessarily provide comparisons for all executive officers. By contrast, compensation survey data has the advantage of including data on executive positions beyond what is available in public filings, but may not be specific to the selected companies in the peer group. In light of this, the Compensation Committee also reviewed data from the Radford Executive Survey, which consists of approximately 600 companies throughout the United States primarily within the technology sector with revenues between $500 million and $3 billion for our executives (other than the CEO and CFO). We look at multiple cuts of data from the survey, including national data across industries, location data across industries and specific industry cuts, and within those industry and geographic groups we align revenues to be consistent with the peer group. With respect to the survey data presented to the Compensation Committee, the identities of the individual companies included in the survey were not provided to the Compensation Committee, and the Compensation Committee did not refer to individual compensation information for such companies.

We believe that by utilizing both publicly available peer group data and the survey data from the published compensation surveys in which we participate, we are able to develop the best set of robust competitive market data reasonably available for use in making compensation decisions.

Based on the objectives outlined above, the Compensation Committee strives to set target total direct compensation opportunity at competitive levels for the markets in which we compete for executive talent and that are appropriate for the skills, experience and performance of each individual. However, the Compensation Committee does not establish compensation levels based on compensation benchmarking. The Compensation Committee instead relies on the judgment of its members in making compensation decisions regarding base salaries, target bonus opportunities and long-term equity awards after reviewing our performance and carefully evaluating each NEO's performance during the year, leadership qualities, business responsibilities, tenure with the Company, current compensation arrangements and long-term potential to enhance stockholder value. The Compensation Committee does not guarantee that any NEO will receive a specific market-derived compensation level.

**EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION COMPONENTS**

Our executive compensation program consists of base salary, an annual performance-based cash program and long-term incentives in the form of equity awards. A significant portion of our NEO's compensation is variable, at risk and tied directly to measurable Company performance. The chart below illustrates the mix of our CEO's total target direct compensation in 2025 and its heavy weighting towards at-risk and long-term incentives.

![img102459364_41.jpg](img102459364_41.jpg)

The graphic above includes the CEO's annualized base salary and annual target bonus for fiscal year 2025. The long-term incentive compensation percentage is based on the grant date fair value of the underlying equity awards (at target, in the case of PSU awards) and does not represent the compensation actually realized or currently realizable by the CEO from such awards. The RSUs vest in four equal installments upon completion of each year of service over the four-year period measured from the grant date, and the PSUs cliff vest after three years based upon achieving three-year stock price growth and Adjusted EBITDA targets.

 *Base Salary*

In general, base salaries for our Named Executive Officers are initially established through arm's length negotiation at the time the executive is hired, taking into account such executive's experience, qualifications and prior salary history. Base salaries of our Named Executive Officers are approved and reviewed annually by the Compensation Committee and adjustments to base salaries are based on the scope of an executive's responsibilities, individual contribution, prior experience, and sustained performance against defined goals and objectives. The Compensation Committee also takes into consideration competitive market and industry data provided by its independent compensation consultant. This strategy is consistent with our intent of offering compensation that is cost-effective, competitive and contingent on the achievement of clearly defined performance goals and objectives.

In January 2025, the Compensation Committee reviewed the base salaries of our NEOs. The Compensation Committee, in consultation with our Chief Executive Officer (with respect to the salaries of our other NEOs) and following review of the competitive market analysis prepared by Compensia, determined that the base salaries of our NEOs should remain at their 2024 levels.

The base salaries paid to the NEOs during 2025 are set forth below:

|:---|:---|
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**Named Executive Officer** | &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**Base Salary** |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Jon E. Kirchner | &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;$750000 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Matt Milne | &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;$465000 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Geir Skaaden | &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;$450000 |

---

Based on the current, comparable market information provided to the Compensation Committee by its independent compensation consultant, for 2025, the base salaries of Messrs. Kirchner, Milne, and Skaaden are generally approximated at the 50th, 35th, and 55th percentiles, respectively, of similarly situated executives among our peer group.

*Performance-Based Cash Incentive Bonus*

Our NEOs are eligible to receive an annual cash incentive bonus under our annual bonus plan, which we refer to as our MBO Plan. For 2025, Mr. Milne was also eligible to receive a cash incentive bonus under a sales incentive compensation plan (the "Sales Incentive Plan"). For 2025, Mr. Kirchner and Mr. Skaaden had 100% of their target bonus tied to the MBO Plan, and Mr. Milne had 15% of his target bonus tied to the MBO Plan and 85% tied to the Sales Incentive Plan.

*Individual Target Cash Incentives* 

Bonuses are set based on the Named Executive Officers' respective base salaries for the relevant bonus year. For 2025, the NEOs were eligible for bonuses under the MBO Plan and, in the case of Mr. Milne, the Sales Incentive Plan. Bonuses payable under the MBO Plan are paid in the first quarter of the following year while bonuses under the Sales Incentive Plan are paid quarterly.

The target bonus opportunities for our NEOs for 2025, in each case expressed as a percentage of base salary, were as follows:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**Named Executive Officer** | &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**Target Bonus** <br>**% of Base Salary** |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Jon E. Kirchner | &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;100% |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Matt Milne | &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;100%\* |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Geir Skaaden | &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;75% |

---

\* 15% of Mr. Milne's total target bonus was based on level of achievement under the MBO Plan and 85% was based on attainment of goals under the Sales Incentive Plan.

All final bonus payments to our Named Executive officers are determined by the Compensation Committee. The actual bonuses awarded in any year, if any, depend on individual performance and achievement of corporate objectives under the MBO Plan and the revenue and other goals under the Sales Incentive Plan, and may vary based on other factors at the discretion of the Compensation Committee. Participants may receive no award under the MBO Plan if we do not achieve a threshold level of performance and awards under the MBO Plan are capped at 100% of target. Under the Sales Incentive Plan, the portion of the award related to strategic goals is capped at 200% of target, and the portion related to revenue goals is not capped. The Compensation Committee retained the discretion to decrease the bonuses that would otherwise be payable under the MBO Plan and the Sales Incentive Plan.

*2025 Corporate Financial and Operational Goals and Achievement*

Under the MBO Plan for 2025, there were corporate financial performance and operational goals. The corporate financial performance goal was related to Adjusted EBITDA (defined below) and the Company's revenue was required to be attained at the threshold level of 90% of our annual plan (which was targeted at $488 million) for any payment under the MBO Plan, regardless of the level of attainment of Adjusted EBITDA or the product and operational goals. The product and operational goals for the year directly supported our short-term and long-term strategic plans and related to product launches, business development and technology development.

------

The bonus paid to Mr. Kirchner under the MBO Plan for 2025 was based solely on our Adjusted EBITDA performance. Mr. Skaaden's bonus under the MBO Plan was based on our level of achievement of the Adjusted EBITDA goal and upon an evaluation of his performance for efforts tied to product and operational goals for the year. Mr. Milne's bonus under the MBO Plan was tied to product and operational goals for the year.

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as GAAP Net Income/(Loss), less the impact of interest expense, income taxes, stock-based compensation, depreciation expense, amortization of intangible assets, amortization of capitalized cloud computing costs, transaction and integration costs related to actual or planned acquisitions, financing, and divestitures; severance and retention costs; restructuring costs; separation costs; and other items not indicative of our ongoing operating performance.

For 2025, the Company's revenue was $448 million, satisfying the MBO Plan's threshold level for payout. Adjusted EBITDA was $77 million, which yielded a multiplier of 49% under the MBO Plan. Mr. Kirchner's actual payout was determined based solely on our Adjusted EBITDA performance. With regard to Mr. Skaaden, the Compensation Committee determined the level of attainment of the financial performance goal together with the level of achievement of his product and operational goals resulted in overall weighted achievement of 44% of his target bonus. With respect to Mr. Milne, the Compensation Committee determined his achievement with respect to his product and operational goals under the MBO Plan was 90% of that portion of his total target bonus (15%).

Under the Sales Incentive Plan for 2025, Mr. Milne was eligible for bonuses based on the level of achievement of the specific pre-established revenue goal ($488 million at target) as well as strategic and new deal goals. The Compensation Committee determined that the level of attainment of Mr. Milne's revenue, strategic and new deal goals was 91% of that portion of his total target bonus (85%).

The total bonus payouts for our NEOs for 2025 were as follows:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**Named Executive Officer** | &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**Target Bonus**  | &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**Achievement Multiplier** | &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**Final Bonus Payout** |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Jon E. Kirchner | &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;$750000 | &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;49% | &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;$367500 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Matt Milne | &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;$465000 | &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;91% | &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;$420,947\* |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Geir Skaaden | &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;$337500 | &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;44% | &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;$148838 |

---

\* Mr. Milne earned $62,775 under the MBO Plan and $358,172 under the Sales Incentive Plan.

 *Long-Term Equity Incentives*

The goal of our long-term, equity-based incentive awards is to align the interests of our NEOs and other employees, non-employee directors and consultants with the interests of our stockholders. Because vesting is based on continued employment over multiple years, our equity awards also encourage the retention of our NEOs through the vesting period of the awards. In determining the size of the equity awards to be granted to our NEOs, the Compensation Committee considers several factors, including individual performance, the value of existing long-term incentive awards, the nature and scope of their job duties, prior contributions to the Company, the size and vesting status of prior awards, as well as a competitive market analysis.

*Equity Vehicles*

The Compensation Committee grants RSUs and PSUs pursuant to our 2022 Equity Incentive Plan. The RSU awards vest based on continued employment over four years, supporting retention, while the PSU awards are used to link a significant portion of our NEOs' target total direct compensation to corporate performance because they are earned and vest only to the extent the specific pre-established performance goals are achieved. As a result, PSUs provide strong incentives for our executives to help the Company achieve its stock price, financial, strategic, or operational goals, thereby closely aligning the interests of our executives with those of our stockholders.

 *2025 Equity Awards*

The Compensation Committee approved equity awards in the form of RSUs and PSUs for our NEOs after considering several factors, including a competitive market analysis prepared by its independent compensation consultant. The RSUs will vest over a four-year period, while the PSUs will be earned and vest, if at all, at the end of

------

a three-year performance period in 2028, if and to the extent the specified stock price performance and Adjusted EBITDA goals are attained.

*Forfeiture of 2022 and July 2023 PSU Awards* 

No shares were earned by the NEOs under the 2022 PSUs, and only 50% of the shares vested under the July 2023 PSUs.

The 2022 PSUs were to be earned over a three-year performance period (2022-2025) based on pre-established stock price appreciation targets and subject to a modifier based on relative total stockholder return compared to the Russell 2000 Index. The target required a 40% increase in the Company's stock price over the performance period. The target was not achieved and none of the 2022 PSUs vested.

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; **Executive Officer** | &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**2022 PSUs Forfeited**<br> **(at Target)** |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Jon E. Kirchner | &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;229,861 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Matt Milne | &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;41,047 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Geir Skaaden | &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;65,675 |

---

The July 2023 PSUs were to be earned on a cliff basis, if at all, after 18 months based upon the achievement of an 18-month stock price appreciation target (50% of the award), a product deployment goal (25%), which required shipment of smart TVs with the Company's operating system by two TV partners, and a Non-GAAP Operating Margin goal (25%), which required the Company to achieve 10% Non-GAAP Operating Margin for 2024. Depending on the level of achievement, no shares were issuable if performance was below the threshold, and 150% of the target number of shares were issuable if the maximum performance level was achieved. 25% of the July 2023 PSUs vested as a result of achievement of the product deployment goal through shipment of smart TVs with the Company's operating system by two TV partners. An additional 25% vested due to achievement of the Non-GAAP Operating Margin goal through the Company's attainment of 10% Non-GAAP Operating Margin for 2024. The remaining 50% of the July 2023 PSUs was forfeited because the stock price appreciation target was not achieved.

Non-GAAP Operating Margin is defined as the Company's Non-GAAP Income from Operations divided by its revenue. Non-GAAP Income from Operations is defined as Operating Income less the impact of stock-based compensation; amortization of intangible assets; transaction, integration and restructuring costs; severance and retention costs; and other items not indicative of the Company's ongoing operating performance.

Employment Contracts, Termination of Employment Arrangements, and Change of Control Arrangements

The Company provides for certain severance payments and benefits if an executive officer's employment is involuntarily or constructively terminated. In addition, the Company provides enhanced severance payments and benefits if such a termination of employment occurs in connection with a change in control of the Company. Such severance payments and benefits are designed to alleviate the financial impact of an involuntary termination of employment through salary, bonus and health benefit continuation and with the intent of providing for a stable work environment. The Company believes that reasonable severance payments and benefits for those NEOs with whom we have entered into severance agreements are important because it may be difficult for these NEOs to find comparable employment within a short period of time following certain qualifying terminations of employment. The Company also believes these payments and benefits are a means of reinforcing and encouraging the continued attention and dedication of key executives of the Company to their duties of employment without personal distraction or a conflict of interest in circumstances which could arise from the occurrence of a change in control of the Company. We believe that the interests of stockholders will be best served if the interests of our senior management are aligned with them, and providing change in control payments and benefits should eliminate, or at least reduce, the reluctance of senior management to pursue potential change in control transactions that may be in the best interests of stockholders.

The Company extends change in control payments and benefits because they are essential to help the Company fulfill its objectives of attracting and retaining key managerial talent. These arrangements are intended to be competitive within our industry and company size and are necessary to attract highly qualified individuals and encourage them to remain employed with the Company. In making the decision to extend the benefits, the Compensation Committee relied on the assurances of its independent compensation consultant that the programs are representative of market practice, both in terms of design and cost.

*Employment Agreement with Mr. Kirchner*

Effective as of November 6, 2024, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Employment and Severance Agreement (the "Employment Agreement") with Mr. Kirchner. The Employment Agreement has an initial term expiring on November 6, 2027, with an automatic 12-month extension. The Employment Agreement sets forth Mr. Kirchner's compensation, including his current base salary of $750,000 and his annual target bonus of 100% of his base salary. Other than the extension of the term, the Employment Agreement provides for substantially similar terms, including severance benefits, as applied under Mr. Kirchner's employment agreement in effect prior to such amendment.

The Compensation Committee believes that the Employment Agreement provides the Company with reasonable contractual protections and that making severance commitments to the Company's CEO leads to stronger retention than if such payments and benefits were not offered.

The Employment Agreement provides the Company a balance of contractual protections in exchange for a severance payment for Mr. Kirchner in the event of his termination of employment without cause and resignation for good reason, each as defined below. The Employment Agreement does not contain a "single trigger" provision that would generally allow him to voluntarily terminate his employment because of a change of control of the Company, as defined below, nor does it entitle him to receive severance payments and benefits under the Employment Agreement solely as a result of change of control of the Company. The Employment Agreement was structured in this fashion so he would not be eligible for such payments and benefits absent other factors, such as a termination of employment without cause or resignation for good reason.

The Employment Agreement provides that, if Mr. Kirchner's employment is terminated by the Company without cause or if he resigns for good reason, he will be entitled to receive the following severance payments and benefits:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•a lump sum cash payment equal to 200% of his annual base salary;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•200% multiplied by his target annual bonus for the calendar year in which termination occurs (which bonus shall be prorated for the portion of the calendar year that has elapsed prior to the date of termination if such termination occurs more than 60 days prior to or more than 18 months following a change in control of the Company);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•continuation of health benefits for a period of up to 24 months following the date of termination;

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **XPERI** *- Proxy Statement* | 49 |

---

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•immediate acceleration of vesting of his outstanding equity awards that would have vested over the 12-month period following the date of his separation from service had he remained continuously employed during such period (with any performance awards that are eligible to be earned vesting based on performance for the fiscal year in which his termination occurs vesting at the target) (provided that if such termination occurs within 60 days prior to or within 18 months following a change in control of the Company, all of Mr. Kirchner's unvested equity awards will vest (with performance awards vesting at target) on the later of the date of his termination or the date of the change in control); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•a post-termination exercise period for his outstanding stock options of 12 months from the date of termination, or, if earlier, the remaining life of the equity grants.

The post-employment payments and benefits described above will be paid upon Mr. Kirchner's execution of a general release of claims in favor of the Company and are subject to his continued compliance with the confidentiality and proprietary rights covenant set forth in the Employment Agreement.

Nonrenewal of the term by the Company so that the term is not extended for the additional 12 month renewal period will be deemed a termination of employment without cause and will result in the payments and benefits described above, while expiration of the term under any other circumstances will not be deemed a termination of employment without cause and will not give rise to any payments or benefits. The term of the Employment Agreement will automatically be extended for 18 months following a change in control of the Company if the term would otherwise have expired during such 18-month period.

In the event that the severance pay and other benefits provided for in the Employment Agreement or otherwise payable to Mr. Kirchner constitute "parachute payments" under Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code and would be subject to excise taxes, then such benefits will either be delivered in full or delivered as to such lesser extent which would result in no portion of such severance pay and other benefits being subject to excise taxes, whichever results in the receipt by the executive of the greatest amount of benefits.

 *Severance Agreements with Messrs. Milne and Skaaden*

We have entered into severance agreements with Messrs. Milne and Skaaden. These agreements have an initial term through September 2027 plus a one-year automatic renewal, or, if earlier, the date on which all payments or benefits required thereunder have been paid or provided in their entirety. Each term may be renewed by mutual agreement between the Company and the NEO.

Each of the severance agreements provides that, if the NEO's employment is terminated by us without cause or if he resigns for good reason, each as defined below, more than 60 days prior or more than 18 months following a change in control, he will be entitled to receive the following payments and benefits:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•a lump sum cash payment equal to 100% of his annual base salary;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•his target annual bonus for the calendar year in which termination occurs (which bonus shall be prorated for the portion of the calendar year that has elapsed prior to the date of termination); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•continuation of health benefits for a period of 12 months following the date of termination.

The severance payments and benefits described above will be paid upon the NEO's execution of a general release of claims in favor of the Company and are subject to the NEO's continued compliance with the confidentiality and proprietary rights covenant set forth in the severance agreement.

 *Change in Control Severance Agreements with Messrs. Milne and Skaaden*

We have entered into separate change in control severance agreements with Messrs. Milne and Skaaden. These agreements have an initial term through September 2027 plus a one-year automatic renewal, or, if earlier, the date on which all payments or benefits required thereunder have been paid or provided in their entirety; provided, that the term of each agreement will automatically be extended for 18 months following a change in control of the Company if the term would otherwise have expired during such period.

Each of the change in control severance agreements provide that, if the NEO's employment is terminated by us without cause or if he resigns for good reason, in either case, within 60 days prior to or within 18 months following a change in control, as defined below, he will be entitled to receive the following payments and benefits:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **XPERI** *- Proxy Statement* | 50 |

---

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•a lump sum cash payment equal to 100% of the NEO's annual base salary;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•the NEO's target annual bonus for the calendar year in which termination occurs;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•continuation of health benefits for a period of up to 12 months following the date of termination; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•immediate acceleration of vesting of the NEO's outstanding equity awards (with any performance-based awards vesting at target, except to the extent alternative acceleration is specifically provided for pursuant to the grant documents) as of the later of the date of termination or the date of such change in control.

The severance payments and benefits described above will be reduced by any severance payments and benefits payable under their severance agreements and will be paid upon the NEO's execution of a general release of claims in favor of the Company and are subject to the NEO's continued compliance with the confidentiality and proprietary rights covenant set forth in the change in control severance agreement.

 *Defined Terms*

For purposes of the Employment Agreement and the severance agreements and the change in control severance agreements, "cause" means, generally, an executive's gross negligence or willful misconduct in the performance of his duties, the executive's willful and habitual neglect of or failure to perform his duties, the executive's commission of any material act of fraud, dishonesty or financial or accounting impropriety with respect to our Company which results in a personal benefit to the executive, the executive's failure to cooperate with us in any investigation or formal proceeding initiated by a governmental authority or otherwise approved by our Board of Directors or the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors, the executive's conviction of or plea of guilty or nolo contender to felony criminal conduct (other than moving vehicle violations), the executive's material violation of our confidentiality and proprietary rights agreement or any similar agreement with the Company, or the executive's material breach of any obligation or duty under the agreement or any written employment or other written policies of our Company.

For purposes of the Employment Agreement and the severance agreements and the change in control severance agreements, "good reason" means, generally, a material diminution in the executive's authority, duties or responsibilities, a material diminution in the executive's base compensation or target bonus opportunity, unless such a reduction is imposed across-the-board to senior management, a material change in the geographic location at which the executive must perform his duties, or any other action that constitutes our material breach of the agreement.

For purposes of the Employment Agreement and the change in control severance agreements, "change in control" is generally defined as:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•a merger or consolidation in which the Company is a party, or the sale of all or substantially all of the Company's assets, in either case other than a transaction that results in our outstanding voting securities immediately before the transaction continuing to represent a majority of the voting power of the acquiring company's outstanding voting securities; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•the acquisition by any person of beneficial ownership of the Company's securities representing more than 50% of the total combined voting power of the Company.

 *2022 Equity Incentive Plan*

We routinely grant our executive officers stock awards pursuant to our 2022 Equity Incentive Plan. In the event of a change of control of the Company, if the successor corporation refuses to assume the awards, or to substitute substantially equivalent awards, the vesting of each outstanding award shall be subject to accelerated vesting such that 100% of the awards will become vested and exercisable or payable, as applicable.

Other Elements of Compensation

**HEALTH, WELFARE AND RETIREMENT BENEFITS**

The establishment of competitive benefit packages for our employees is an important factor in attracting and retaining highly qualified personnel.

------

*Health and Welfare Benefits*

Our NEOs are eligible to participate in our employee benefit plans, including our medical, dental, vision, group life, disability and accidental death and dismemberment insurance plans, in each case on the generally same basis as all of our other employees.

*Retirement Benefits*

We also maintain a defined contribution employee retirement plan, or 401(k) plan, for our employees. Our NEOs are eligible to participate in the 401(k) plan on the same basis as our other employees. The 401(k) plan is intended to qualify as a tax-qualified plan under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended. The 401(k) plan provides that each participant may make pre-tax deferrals from his or her compensation up to the statutory limit, which was $23,500 for calendar year 2025. Participants who are 50 years or older can also make "catch-up" contributions, which in the calendar year 2025 could be up to an additional $7,500 above the statutory limit. The 401(k) plan provides for discretionary matching contributions, and we currently contribute up to a maximum of 50% of the first 6% of an employee's deferrals.

*Other Benefits*

Our Board may elect to adopt qualified or non-qualified benefit plans in the future if it determines that doing so is in the Company's best interests. We generally do not provide substantial perquisites or personal benefits to our NEOs.

**Executive Stock Ownership Guidelines**

To align the interests of the Company's executives with stockholders, our Stock Ownership Guidelines provide that all executives will be expected to own common stock of the Company with a market value equal to 1.5 times their respective annual base salaries (five times in the case of our CEO). Our executives have until the fifth anniversary of the later to occur of (a) October 1, 2022 (the date of adoption of the guidelines), (b) the date of any amendment to the ownership threshold applicable to such executive, or (c) the date of first appointment as an executive, to meet these requirements. All of our executives have not yet reached the applicable deadline for compliance.

Equity Award Timing Policies and Practices

We use equity awards to compensate our employees, including our Named Executive Officers, both in the form of initial grants in connection with the commencement of employment and annual refresher grants. Annual equity awards for our Named Executive Officers are typically granted during the first quarter of each year. While we intend that the majority of stock awards to our employees be made pursuant to initial grants or our annual grant program, the Compensation Committee retains discretion to make equity awards to employees at other times, including in connection with the promotion of an employee, to reward an employee, for retention purposes or other circumstances as may be recommended by management or the Compensation Committee. We do not grant equity awards in anticipation of the release of material nonpublic information and we do not time the release of material nonpublic information for the purpose of affecting the value of executive compensation. In fiscal year 2025, we did not grant awards of stock options, stock appreciation rights, or similar option-like instruments to our Named Executive Officers or our employees.

Proposal 2—Ratification of Appointment of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

The Audit Committee has appointed Deloitte & Touche LLP as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2026. Our Board has directed that this appointment be submitted to our stockholders for ratification at the Annual Meeting. Deloitte & Touche LLP served as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm for the year ended December 31, 2025. Although ratification of our appointment of Deloitte & Touche LLP is not required, we value the opinions of our stockholders and believe that stockholder ratification of our appointment is a good corporate governance practice.

Representatives of Deloitte & Touche LLP will attend the Annual Meeting and will have an opportunity to make a statement if they desire to do so. They will also be available to respond to appropriate questions.

**CHANGE OF AUDITORS** 

As previously disclosed, on April 2, 2024, the Audit Committee approved the engagement of Deloitte & Touche LLP as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024 and, on the same date, dismissed PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP ("PwC") as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm, in each case effective immediately. PwC served as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm for the year ended December 31, 2023.

The reports of PwC on the Company's financial statements for each of the two fiscal years ended December 31, 2022 and 2023 did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, nor were they qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles. In the fiscal years ended December 31, 2022 and 2023 and in the subsequent interim period through April 2, 2024, there were no (a) "disagreements" (as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K) and the related instructions thereto between the Company and PwC on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedures which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of PwC, would have caused PwC to make reference to the matter in its report, or (b) "reportable events," as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

The Company provided PwC with a copy of the disclosures contained in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on April 8, 2024, and requested that PwC furnish the Company with a letter addressed to the SEC stating whether it agrees with the statements contained therein. A copy of PwC's letter, dated April 8, 2024, was filed as Exhibit 16.1 to the Company's Form 8-K filed with the SEC on the same date.

During the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2023 and through April 2, 2024, neither the Company nor anyone on its behalf consulted with Deloitte & Touche LLP with respect to (a) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company's consolidated financial statements, and neither a written report nor oral advice was provided to the Company that Deloitte & Touche LLP concluded was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to any accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue, or (b) any matter that was either the subject of a "disagreement" (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions thereto) or a "reportable event" (as described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).

**AUDIT COMMITTEE PRE-APPROVAL POLICIES**

Before the independent registered public accounting firm is engaged by the Company or its subsidiaries to render audit or non-audit services, the Audit Committee will be required to pre-approve the engagement. Audit Committee pre-approval of audit and non-audit services will not be required if the engagement for the services is entered into pursuant to pre-approval policies and procedures established by the Audit Committee regarding the Company's engagement of the independent registered public accounting firm, provided the policies and procedures are detailed as to the particular service, the Audit Committee is informed of each service provided and such policies and procedures do not include delegation of the Audit Committee's responsibilities under the Exchange Act to the Company's management. The Audit Committee may delegate to one or more designated members of the Audit Committee the authority to grant pre-approvals, provided such approvals are presented to the Audit Committee at a subsequent meeting. If the Audit Committee elects to establish pre-approval policies and procedures regarding non-audit services, the Audit Committee must be informed of each non-audit service provided by the independent registered public accounting firm. Audit Committee pre-approval of non-audit services (other than review and attest services) also will not be required if such services fall within available exceptions established by the SEC. All non-audit services provided by Deloitte & Touche LLP during 2025 were pre-approved by the Audit Committee in accordance with applicable pre-approval policies.

**VOTING AND BOARD OF DIRECTORS' RECOMMENDATION**

The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on the proposal is required to ratify the appointment of Deloitte & Touche LLP.

**The Board of Directors unanimously recommends that the stockholders vote "FOR" the ratification of the appointment of Deloitte & Touche LLP as the independent registered public accounting firm of the Company for the year ending December 31, 2026.**

In fulfilling its oversight responsibilities, the Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed the Company's audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025 with management and Deloitte & Touche LLP, the Company's independent registered public accounting firm. In addition, the Audit Committee has discussed with Deloitte & Touche LLP, with and without management present, their evaluation of the Company's internal accounting controls and overall quality of the Company's financial reporting. The Audit Committee also discussed with Deloitte & Touche LLP the matters required to be discussed by the applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board ("PCAOB") and the SEC. The Audit Committee has also received the written disclosures and the letter from Deloitte & Touche LLP required by applicable requirements of the PCAOB regarding the independent accountant's communications with audit committees concerning independence and the Audit Committee has discussed with Deloitte & Touche LLP the independence of Deloitte & Touche LLP from the Company.

Based on the Audit Committee's review and discussions noted above, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board of Directors that the audited financial statements be included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 for filing with the SEC.

# Certain Relationships a nd Related Transactions
Since January 1, 2025, there has not been, nor is there currently planned, any transaction or series of similar transactions to which we were or are a party in which the amount involved exceeds $120,000 and in which any director, nominee for director, executive officer or holder of more than 5% of our capital stock or any member of their immediate families had or will have a direct or indirect material interest other than the compensatory transactions described above and the agreements and transactions described below.

**Indemnification Agreements**

We have entered into indemnification agreements with each of our directors and officers. As permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law, we have adopted provisions in the Charter that limit or eliminate the personal liability of our directors to us for monetary damages for a breach of their fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability for:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to us or our stockholders;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•any act or omission not in good faith or that involves intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•any unlawful payments related to dividends or unlawful stock repurchases, redemptions or other distributions; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.

Pursuant to the Charter and the Bylaws, we are obligated, to the maximum extent permitted by Delaware law, to indemnify each of our directors and officers against expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines, settlements and other amounts actually and reasonably incurred in connection with any proceeding, arising by reason of the fact that such person is or was an agent of the corporation.

We have entered into indemnification agreements with each of our directors and officers that are, in some cases, broader than the specific indemnification provisions permitted by Delaware law, and that may provide additional procedural protection. The indemnification agreements require us, among other things, to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•indemnify officers and directors against certain liabilities that may arise because of their status as officers or directors; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•advance expenses, as incurred, to officers and directors in connection with a legal proceeding, subject to limited exceptions.

At present, there is no pending litigation or proceeding involving any of our directors, officers or employees in which indemnification is sought, nor are we aware of any threatened litigation or proceeding that may result in claims for indemnification.

**Relationship with our Chief Content Officer**

Bill Neighbors serves as the Chief Content Officer and is the brother-in-law of Chief Executive Officer and director, Jon E. Kirchner. During the year ended December 31, 2025, Mr. Neighbors received compensation of approximately $367,605 in base salary, $86,019 in bonus, and $11,155 in cash incentives. Mr. Neighbors' current base annual salary is $376,800 and he is eligible for a target bonus of 45% of his base annual salary.

**PROCEDURES FOR APPROVAL OF RELATED PERSON TRANSACTIONS**

The Company recognizes that Related Person Transactions ("RPT") can present potential or actual conflicts of interest and may raise questions among stockholders as to whether those transactions are consistent with the best interests of the Company and its stockholders. The Company maintains a written RPT policy to enter into RPTs only when the Board, acting through the Audit Committee, reviews and approves or ratifies such transaction.

The RPT policy defines "Related Person Transaction" as a transaction, arrangement or relationship (or any series of similar transactions, arrangements or relationships) in which the Company (including any of its subsidiaries) was, is or will be a participant and the amount involved exceeds $120,000, and in which any Related Person (as defined below) had, has or will have a direct or indirect material interest. A "Related Person" includes a director, director nominee, or executive officer of the Company, any person who is known to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of any class of the Company's voting securities, or any immediate family member of such person, as well as any entity in which any of the foregoing persons is employed or is a partner or principal or in which such person has a 5% or greater beneficial ownership interest.

The Company's RPT policy requires that all directors or executive officers provide notice to the Company's Chief Legal Officer of the relevant facts and circumstances prior to entering into a potential RPT. The Chief Legal Officer will assess whether the proposed transaction is a RPT for purposes of the policy and provide the material facts of the transaction to the Audit Committee if she determines that the proposed transaction is an RPT.

The disinterested members of the Audit Committee will approve or ratify only those RPTs that are in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders, as the committee determines in good faith. The Audit Committee will consider all of the relevant facts and circumstances available, including, among other factors it deems appropriate, the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•the Related Person's interest in the transaction;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•the availability of other sources for comparable products or services;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•the terms of the transaction;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•the purpose of, and the potential benefits to the Company of, the transaction; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•any other information regarding the RPT or the Related Person that would be material to investors in light of the circumstances of the particular transaction.

In the event the Company becomes aware of an RPT that has not been approved under the RPT Policy, the matter must be reviewed by the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee will consider all of the relevant facts and circumstances with respect to such transaction, including the items listed above, and will evaluate all options available to the Company, including ratification, revision or termination of such transaction, and will take such course of action as the committee deems appropriate under the circumstances.

The RPT Policy is posted on the "Investor Relations" section of our website, which is located at investor.xperi.com under "Governance Documents" in the "Governance" subsection.

**COMPENSATION COMMITTEE INTERLOCKS AND INSIDER PARTICIPATION**

During the year ended December 31, 2025, Ms. Antonellis, Ms. Durr, Mr. Habiger, Mr. Randall and Mr. Seams served as members of the Compensation Committee. None of such Compensation Committee members has ever been an officer or employee of the Company or any of its subsidiaries during their service as a member of the Compensation Committee. In addition, during the year ended December 31, 2025, none of our executive officers served as a member of the Board of Directors or Compensation Committee of an entity that has one or more executive officers serving as members of our Board of Directors or our Compensation Committee.
