Xperi Inc. Fair Value Disclosure
NOTE 6 – FAIR VALUE
The Company follows the authoritative guidance for fair value measurement and the fair value option for financial assets and financial liabilities. The Company carries its financial instruments at fair value with the exception of its note receivable, deferred consideration from divestitures, short-term debt, and long-term debt. Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability, or an exit price, in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The established fair value hierarchy requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. There are three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
Level 1 Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets.
Level 2 Observable market-based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data.
Level 3 Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets. Level 3 assets and liabilities include financial instruments whose value is determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation.
When applying fair value principles in the valuation of assets and liabilities, the Company is required to maximize the use of quoted market prices and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The Company calculates the fair value of its Level 1 and Level 2 instruments based on the exchange traded price of similar or identical instruments, where available, or based on other observable inputs.
The Company’s derivative financial instruments (as described in Note 5—Financial Instruments), consisting of foreign currency forward contracts, are reported at fair value on a recurring basis and classified as Level 2.

(1) Includes $11.9 million as of December 31, 2025 of the net carrying amount of the holdback consideration from the Perceive Transaction (as described in Note 7—Divestitures), which approximates its associated fair value and is classified as current in the consolidated balance sheets.
The fair value of the note receivable, including accrued interest, and the deferred consideration resulting from the AutoSense Divestiture and the Perceive Transaction were estimated based on an income and market approach with valuation inputs such as the U.S. Treasury constant maturity yields, comparable bond yields, and credit spreads over the term of the same or similarly issued instruments. They are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
Debt is classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. As of December 31, 2025, long-term debt included the AR Facility (as defined in Note 9—Debt and Receivables Securitization) with a floating interest rate based on market conditions. As of December 31, 2024, short-term debt included the senior unsecured promissory note. The carrying amounts of these two debt instruments approximated their respective fair values. Refer to Note 9—Debt and Receivables Securitization for additional information on these two debt instruments.

About Fair Value Disclosures
Fair value disclosures classify all assets and liabilities measured at fair value into a three-level hierarchy: Level 1 (quoted market prices), Level 2 (observable inputs like yield curves), and Level 3 (unobservable inputs requiring management estimates). The proportion of Level 3 assets directly reflects how much of the balance sheet depends on internal models rather than market evidence.
Key signals: a growing Level 3 balance relative to total fair-value assets increases valuation uncertainty and earnings volatility risk. Watch for transfers between levels — assets moving from Level 2 to Level 3 often signal deteriorating market liquidity. Unrealized gains and losses on Level 3 positions flow through earnings or other comprehensive income, so large swings deserve scrutiny. For financial institutions, examine the sensitivity disclosures that show how Level 3 valuations change under alternative assumptions. Compare the fair value of debt against its carrying amount to gauge hidden leverage.
