CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This quarterly report on Form 10-Q contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These statements relate to, among other things:


•	our financial results, including our expectations of future revenues, and profitability, and costs related to our the transition of TiVo's CEO to non-executive chairman in the fourth quarter;


•	our intention and ability to protect our intellectual property in the future and the strength and future value of our intellectual property;


•	our TiVo-Owned Subscriptions, our future investments in subscription acquisition activities, future advertising expenditures, hardware costs and associated hardware subsidies, and other sales and marketing activities, including our sales and marketing, subscription acquisition costs (SAC), average revenue per subscription (ARPU), and subscription churn;


•	our TiVo-Owned Subscriptions, our estimates of the useful life of TiVo-enabled digital video recorders (DVRs) and Minis in connection with the recognition of revenue received from product lifetime subscriptions and the expected future increase in the number of fully-amortized TiVo-Owned product lifetime subscriptions, and our estimates of the effects of product lifetime subscriptions on churn;


•	our expectations regarding the seasonality of our business and subscription additions to the TiVo service;


•	our expectations regarding future changes in subscriptions to the TiVo service, including future increases in the number of television service operator (MSO) Subscriptions and households through international expansion and the possibility of future decreases in the TiVo-Owned Subscription base;


•	our expectations regarding future changes in our TiVo-Owned ARPU as well as fees paid by MSOs, including decreases in TiVo-Owned ARPUs as a result of increased sales of non-DVR devices such as TiVo Mini which have lower product lifetime service fees than DVRs;


•	our expectations regarding future sales of TiVo OTA (Over-the-Air) retail products;


•	our expectations regarding future media services and other revenues;


•	our expectations regarding future advertising and audience research and measurement revenues, growth in the future programmatic ad spending for television and our ability to develop data products to integrate into the emerging programmatic ad spending marketplaces;


•	our future service and hardware revenues from TiVo-Owned Subscriptions and future service, technology, and hardware revenues from MSOs;

•

our expectations regarding demand in the future advanced television services market for our services, software, and technology, which will be impacted by alternatives to and competitors with our products, such as broadband content delivered by MSOs to their customers' computers and mobile devices (such as TV Everywhere), video delivered on demand to an MSO customers' set-top box (VOD), and network DVRs;


•	our expectations regarding continued regulatory required access to and installation and operational issues surrounding cable-operator provided CableCARDs™ and switched digital devices essential for TiVo consumer devices in cable homes;


•	our expectations that in the future we may also offer services for additional non-DVR products beyond TiVo Mini, for example, that may or may not incorporate the TiVo user interface and non-DVR software including a network DVR service;


•	our expectations of the future decrease in hardware revenues and hardware margin as our U.S. MSO customers transition their hardware purchases to third-party hardware manufacturers such as Arris and our belief that this will enable us to gain additional MSO Subscriptions;


•	our expectations of the growth of the TiVo service and technology revenues outside the United States;


•	our expectations regarding a future decrease in the amount of our research and development spending and our associated ability to remain a competitive technology innovator and invest significant resources in advanced television solutions beyond the DVR;


•	our expectations regarding future increases in the amount of deferred expenses in costs of technology revenues related to development work for our television distribution partners and our ability to receive revenues equal to or greater than such deferred expenses from such television distribution partners;


•	our expectations regarding future changes in our operating expenses, including changes in general and administrative expenses, litigation expenses, sales and marketing, and subscription acquisition costs;


•	our expectations regarding our ability to oversee outsourcing of our manufacturing processes and engineering work and our ability to support the hardware, inventory, and hardware customization needs of our MSO customers;


•	our expectations regarding the usability of our finished goods inventory of DVRs and non-DVR products and the risks that hardware forecasts of our MSO customers may be reduced or delayed after we have committed manufacturing resources due to long lead times, which may require us to record write-downs if such inventory exceeds forecasted demand;


•	our expectations regarding our ability to perform or comply with laws, regulations, and requirements different than those in the United States;


•	our expectations regarding future capital allocation activities including share buy-backs, mergers and acquisitions, issuance of debt, and other alternative capital distribution activities;


•	our expectations and estimates related to long-term investments and their associated carrying value; and


•	our expectations of growth from our acquisitions of Digitalsmiths Corporation ("Digitalsmiths") and Cubiware Sp. Z.o.o. ("Cubiware").

TIVO INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited)

1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS

TiVo Inc. (together with its subsidiaries the "Company" or "TiVo") was incorporated in August 1997 as a Delaware corporation and is located in San Jose, California. The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company conducts its operations through one reportable segment.

The Company is subject to a number of risks, including delays in product and service developments; competitive product and service offerings; lack of market acceptance; the dependence on third-parties for manufacturing, marketing, and sales support, as well as third-party roll-out schedules, software development issues for third-party products which contain its technology; intellectual property claims by and against the Company; access to television programming including digital cable signals in connection with CableCARD and switched digital Internet Protocol, downloadable conditional access, and other new signal delivery and encryption technologies; dependence on over-the-top (OTT) sources of content; dependence on its relationships with third-party service providers for subscription growth; and the Company’s ability to sustain and grow both its TiVo-Owned and MSO subscription bases. The Company anticipates that its retail business will continue to be seasonal and expects to generate a significant portion of its new subscriptions during and immediately after the holiday shopping season.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information, the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not contain all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete audited annual financial statements. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair presentation of the Company’s financial position as of October 31, 2015 and January 31, 2015 and the results of operations and the statement of other comprehensive income for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2015 and 2014 and condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the nine months ended October 31, 2015 and 2014. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements, including the notes thereto, included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2015. Operating results for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for this fiscal year ending January 31, 2016 or any other periods.

Foreign Currency Translation

The Company determines the functional currency for its foreign subsidiaries by reviewing the currencies in which their respective operating activities occur. For the Company’s foreign subsidiaries where the local country’s currency is the functional currency, the Company translates the assets and liabilities of its non-U.S. dollar functional currency subsidiaries into U.S. dollars using exchange rates in effect at the end of each period. Revenue and expenses for these subsidiaries are translated using the average exchange rates during the period. Gains and losses from these translations are credited or charged to foreign currency translation adjustments, included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in stockholders’ equity.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May, 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. The ASU will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP when it becomes effective. In July 2015, the FASB approved a one year deferral to the effective date of ASU 2014-09 for all entities so that the new standard will be effective for the Company on February 1, 2018. The standard permits the use of either the retrospective or

cumulative effect transition method. The Company is evaluating the effect that ASU 2014-09 will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. The Company has not yet selected a transition method nor has it determined the effect of the standard on its ongoing financial reporting.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015‑03, Interest-Imputation of Interest, to simplify the presentation of debt issuance costs by requiring that debt issuance costs be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The new standard is effective for the Company on February 1, 2016. While permitted, the Company has elected not to early adopt this ASU. Upon adoption, the new standard will result in a total decrease of prepaid expenses and other, current and long-term assets and a decrease in the carrying amount of the Company's current and long-term convertible senior notes of approximately $4.4 million as of October 31, 2015 and $6.1 million as of January 31, 2015.

In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-11, Inventory-Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory, which, for entities that do not measure inventory using the last-in, first-out (LIFO) or retail inventory method, changes the measurement principle for inventory from the lower of cost or market to lower of cost and net realizable value. The ASU also eliminates the requirement for these entities to consider replacement cost or net realizable value less an approximately normal profit margin when measuring inventory. This ASU is effective for the Company on February 1, 2017. This ASU will be applied prospectively. The Company has not yet determined the effect of the standard on its ongoing financial reporting.

In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-17, Income Taxes: Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes, which eliminates the current requirement for companies to present deferred tax liabilities and assets as current and non-current in a classified balance sheet. Instead, companies will be required to classify all deferred tax assets and liabilities as non-current. This ASU is effective for the Company on February 1, 2017. Earlier application is permitted.

Other investment securities

TiVo has investments in private companies where the Company’s ownership is less than 20% and TiVo does not have significant influence. The investments are accounted for under the cost method and are periodically assessed for other-than-temporary impairment. The Company's cost basis in such investments was $2.7 million and $250,000 as of October 31, 2015 and January 31, 2015. Refer to Note 4 "Fair Value" for additional information on the impairment assessment of the investments.

Contractual Maturity Date

The following table summarizes the estimated fair value of the Company’s debt investments, designated as available-for-sale, classified by the contractual maturity date of the security:



	As of
	October 31, 2015		January 31, 2015
	(in thousands)
Due within 1 year	$	385,123	$	451,571

Total	$	530,004	$	564,744

4. FAIR VALUE

Inputs to valuation techniques are observable or unobservable. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect TiVo's market assumptions. These two types of inputs have created the following fair-value hierarchy:

Level 1 - Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets;

Level 2 - Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets; and

Level 3 - Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.

This hierarchy requires TiVo to minimize the use of unobservable inputs and to use observable market data, if available, when determining fair value. TiVo recognizes transfers between levels of the hierarchy based on the fair values of the respective financial instruments at the end of the reporting period in which the transfer occurred.

Cash equivalents and available-for-sale marketable securities (including asset- and mortgage-backed securities) are reported at their fair value. Additionally, carrying amounts of certain of the Company’s financial instruments including accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued expenses approximate their fair value because of their short maturities. The Company has financial liabilities for which it is obligated to repay the carrying value, unless the holder agrees to a lesser amount. These financial liabilities include TiVo's convertible senior notes which mature in March 2016 (the "4.0% Notes due 2016") and October 2021 (the "2.0% Notes due 2021"). The fair values of TiVo's convertible senior notes are influenced by interest rates, TiVo's stock price and stock price volatility and are determined by Level 2 inputs. The carrying value of the 4.0% Notes due 2016 at October 31, 2015 and January 31, 2015 was $132.5 million and $172.5 million and the fair value was $134.8 million and $193.7 million, based on the note's quoted market price as of October 31, 2015 and January 31, 2015, respectively. The carrying value of the 2.0% Notes due 2021 at October 31, 2015 and January 31, 2015 was $184.7 million and $180.1 million and the fair value was $202.2 million and $211.1 million, based on the note's quoted market price as of October 31, 2015 and January 31, 2015, respectively.

On a quarterly basis, TiVo measures, at fair value, certain financial assets and liabilities. The fair value of those financial assets and liabilities was determined using the following levels of inputs as of October 31, 2015 and January 31, 2015:

Level 1 Measurements

TiVo's cash equivalents held in money market funds are measured at fair value using Level 1 inputs.

Level 2 Measurements

The Company uses inputs such as broker/dealer quotes, and other similar data, which are obtained from quoted market prices, independent pricing vendors, or other sources, to determine the ultimate fair value of these assets and liabilities. The Company uses such pricing data as the primary input to make its assessments and

Table of Contents

determinations as to the ultimate valuation of its investment portfolio and has not made, during the periods presented, any material adjustments to such inputs.

Level 3 Measurements

The fair value of contingent purchase consideration arising from the acquisition of Cubiware (See Note 10) is determined based on a probability-based approach that includes significant unobservable inputs which include projected revenues and EBITDA, percentage probability of occurrence, and a discount rate to calculate the present value of future cash earn-out payments. A significant change in these inputs could result in a significantly higher or lower fair value measurement. The fair value of contingent purchase consideration is calculated on a quarterly basis. Any change in the fair value is recorded to interest expense and other expense, net of that period. The change in the fair value of the Company’s contingent purchase consideration liability is as follows:



	Fair Value
	(in thousands)
As of May 22, 2015	$	9,429
Add: Change in fair value of contingent purchase consideration	256
As of July 31, 2015	$	9,685
Add: Change in fair value of contingent purchase consideration	347
As of October 31, 2015	$	10,032

The Company did not have any transfers between Level 1, Level 2, and Level 3 fair value measurements during the periods presented as there were no changes in the composition of Level 1, 2, or 3 securities.

TiVo also has two direct investments in privately-held companies accounted for under the cost method, which is periodically assessed for other-than-temporary impairment. If the Company determines that an other-than-temporary impairment has occurred, TiVo will write-down the investment to its fair value. The fair value of a cost method investment is not evaluated if there are no identified events or changes in circumstances that may have a significant adverse effect on the fair value of the investment. However, if such a significant adverse events were identified, the Company would estimate the fair value of its cost method investments considering available information at the time of the event, such as pricing in recent rounds of financing, current cash position, earnings and cash flow forecasts, recent operational performance, and any other readily available data. The carrying amount of the Company's cost method investments was $2.7 million as of October 31, 2015 and $250,000 as of January 31, 2015. No events or circumstances indicating a potential impairment were identified as of as of October 31, 2015.

6. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Product Warranties

The Company’s standard manufacturer's warranty period to consumers for TiVo-enabled DVRs is 90 days for parts and labor from the date of consumer purchase, and from 91-365 days for parts only. Within the limited warranty period, consumers are offered a no-charge exchange for TiVo-enabled DVRs returned due to product defect, within 90 days from the date of consumer purchase. Thereafter, consumers may exchange a TiVo-enabled DVR with a product defect for a variable charge. The one year warranty for parts is extended beyond one year for

Table of Contents

customers on monthly service plans who also use our latest Roamio and BOLT DVRs for as long as such customers remain active. As of October 31, 2015 and January 31, 2015, the accrued warranty reserve was $480,000 and $471,000, respectively. The Company’s accrued warranty reserve is included in accrued liabilities in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The Company also includes a warranty through its Continual Care program to TiVo-Owned customers as long as they are subscribed to our service. The Company recognizes the cost associated with the Continual Care warranties at the time of the DVR sale. The Company also offers its TiVo-Owned customers who purchase a lifetime subscription a separately priced optional 2-year and 3-year extended warranties. The Company defers and amortizes cost and revenue associated with the sales of these extended warranties over the warranty period or until a warranty is redeemed. Additionally, the Company offers its MSO customers separately priced optional 3-year extended warranties. The Company recognizes the revenues associated with the sale of these MSO extended warranties over the second and third year of the warranty period. The extended warranty for MSOs applies through the end of the period of warranty. As of October 31, 2015, the extended warranty deferred revenue and cost was $2.0 million and $206,000, respectively. As of January 31, 2015, the extended warranty deferred revenue and cost was $2.1 million and $263,000, respectively.

Indemnification Arrangements

The Company undertakes indemnification obligations in its ordinary course of business. For instance, the Company has undertaken to indemnify its underwriters and certain investors in connection with the issuance and sale of its securities and the Company provides indemnification for its directors and officers in accordance with Delaware law. The Company has also undertaken to indemnify certain customers and business partners for, among other things, the licensing of its products, the sale of its DVRs, and the provision of engineering and consulting services. Pursuant to these agreements, the Company may indemnify the other party for certain losses suffered or incurred by the indemnified party in connection with various types of claims, which may include, without limitation, intellectual property infringement, advertising and consumer disclosure laws, certain tax liabilities, negligence and intentional acts in the performance of services and violations of laws, including certain violations of securities laws with respect to underwriters and investors. The term of these indemnification obligations is generally perpetual. The Company’s obligation to provide indemnification under its agreements with customer and business partners would arise in the event that a third party filed a claim against one of the parties that was covered by the Company’s indemnification obligation. As an example, if a third party sued a customer for intellectual property infringement and the Company agreed to indemnify that customer against such claims, its obligation would be triggered.

The Company is unable to estimate with any reasonable accuracy the liability that may be incurred pursuant to its indemnification obligations, if any. Variables affecting any such assessment include but are not limited to: the nature of the claim asserted; the relative merits of the claim; the financial ability of the party suing the indemnified party to engage in protracted litigation; the number of parties seeking indemnification; the nature and amount of damages claimed by the party suing the indemnified party; and the willingness of such party to engage in settlement negotiations. Due to the nature of the Company’s potential indemnity liability, its indemnification obligations could range from immaterial to having a material adverse impact on its financial position and its ability to continue operation in the ordinary course of business.

Under certain circumstances, the Company may have recourse through its insurance policies that would enable it to recover from its insurance company some or all amounts paid pursuant to its indemnification obligations. The Company does not have any assets held either as collateral or by third parties that, upon the occurrence of an event requiring it to indemnify a customer, the Company could obtain and liquidate to recover all or a portion of the amounts paid pursuant to its indemnification obligations.

Legal Matters

From time to time, the Company is involved in numerous lawsuits as well as subject to various legal proceedings, claims, threats of litigation, and investigations in the ordinary course of business, including claims of alleged infringement of third-party patents and other intellectual property rights, commercial, employment and other matters. The Company assesses potential liabilities in connection with each lawsuit and threatened lawsuits and accrues an estimated loss for these loss contingencies if both of the following conditions are met: information available prior to issuance of the financial statements indicates that it is probable that a liability has been incurred at the date of the financial statements and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. While certain matters to which the Company is a party specify the damages claimed, such claims may not represent reasonably possible

Table of Contents

losses. Given the inherent uncertainties of the litigation, the ultimate outcome of these matters cannot be predicted at this time, nor can the amount of possible loss or range of loss, if any, be reasonably estimated.

On June 15, 2011, TNS Media Research, LLC (d/b/a Kantar Media Audiences, or Kantar) brought a claim for declaratory judgment against TRA Global Inc. (which was acquired by TiVo in July 2012) in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York alleging non-infringement of United States Patent No. 7,729,940 entitled “Analyzing Return on Investment of Advertising Campaigns by Matching Multiple Data Sources” (the “940 Patent”) and its affiliate Cavendish Square Holding B.V. brought a claim for breach of contract of a Voting Agreement. On June 6, 2012 TiVo Research filed an amended answer and counterclaims alleging affirmative defenses and counterclaims alleging infringement by Kantar of the 940 Patent as well as United States Patent No. 8,000,993 entitled “Using Consumer Purchase Behavior For Television Targeting” (the “993 Patent”) and United States Patent No. 8,112,301 with the same title at the 993 Patent. TiVo Research also asserted counterclaims for aiding and abetting breach of fiduciary duty, misappropriation of trade secrets, and breach of contract. On October 3, 2013, the court granted summary judgment to Kantar on all patent and trade secret issues but denied summary judgment on TiVo Research’s claims for breach of contract and aiding and abetting breach of fiduciary duties. On November 4, 2014, the District Court granted Kantar’s motion for attorneys' fees and expenses directly related to certain arguments advanced by TiVo Research that the Court identified in its order, which approximated $1.5 million. On September 16, 2015, the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit granted in part and denied in part TRA’s appeal of the final judgment by the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York on patent and trade secret issues and remanded the case back to the District Court concluding that TiVo Research has a right to a jury trial on at least a subset of its claims. Further, in a separate ruling, the Federal Circuit vacated the District Court’s award of attorneys’ fees against TiVo Research in favor of Kantar. Consequently, the Company reversed the $1.5 million accrual for Kantar's legal fees as it no longer believes a loss is probable.

On September 8, 2015, the Company filed a complaint against Samsung Electronics Co., LTD, Samsung Electronics America, Inc., and Samsung Telecommunications America, LLC. (“Samsung”) in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas. The complaint asserts U.S. Patent No. 6,233,389 (“the ’389 patent”), entitled “Multimedia Time Warping System,” U.S. Patent No. 6,792,195 (“the ’195 patent”), entitled “Method And Apparatus Implementing Random Access And Time-Based Functions On A Continuous Stream Of Formatted Digital Data,” U.S. Patent No. 7,558,472 (“the ’472 patent”), entitled “Multimedia Signal Processing System,” and U.S. Patent No. 8,457,476 (“the ’476 patent”), entitled “Multimedia Signal Processing System,” and claims that Samsung infringes the Company’s patents by making and selling Samsung DVRs and mobile devices falling within the scope of one or more claims of the Company’s patents. The complaint claims that Samsung’s infringement is willful, seeks damages in an unspecified amount as well as an injunction. On November 17, 2015, Samsung filed its answer denying the Company’s allegations. The Company expects to incur material expenses in connection with this matter.

On November 24, 2015, Dolby Laboratories Licensing Corporation & Dolby International AB (“Dolby”) formally notified TiVo that TiVo was in material breach of certain provisions in license agreements with Dolby and that TiVo had 30 days to cure the breaches or Dolby would terminate those license agreements. Dolby alleges that TiVo owes Dolby approximately $1.7 million in connection with TiVo’s alleged failure to properly report and pay royalties for sales of certain TiVo hardware and software products, including accrued interest. Dolby further alleges that TiVo owes Dolby approximately $8.7 million in connection with certain third-party hardware products that run TiVo software. TiVo has notified Dolby that it does not agree with the results of its audit nor with its assertions that TiVo’s activities in connection with third-party hardware products in any way breach any of TiVo’s license agreements with Dolby. The Company intends to defend against these assertions vigorously; however, the Company may incur material expenses if this contractual dispute results in litigation and in the event there is an adverse outcome, the Company’s business could be harmed. No loss is considered probable at this time and the Company estimates that the range of possible loss could be between $0.3 and $10.4 million (plus accrued interest) at this time.

7. CONVERTIBLE SENIOR NOTES

4.0% Convertible Notes Due 2016: In March 2011, the Company issued $172.5 million aggregate principal amount of 4.0% Convertible Senior Notes due March 15, 2016 at par. The 4.0% Notes due 2016 may be converted under certain circumstances described below, based on an initial conversion rate of 89.6359 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of notes (which represents an initial conversion price of approximately $11.16 per share). The net proceeds to the Company from the sale of the 4.0% Notes due 2016 were approximately $166.1 million. The notes do not have cash settlement provisions.

The following table presents the amount of interest cost recognized relating to the contractual interest coupon and amortization of issuance costs of the 4.0% Notes due 2016 (in thousands):



	Three Months Ended October 31,				Nine Months Ended October 31,

Total interest cost recognized	$	1,822	$	1,965	$	5,752	$	5,896

Holders of the 4.0% Notes due 2016 may convert the notes at their option on any day through maturity. The notes may not be redeemed by the Company prior to their maturity date. The conversion rate will be adjusted for certain dilutive events and will be increased in the case of corporate events that constitute a “Make-Whole Fundamental Change” (as defined in the indenture governing the notes). The holders of the notes will have the ability to require the Company to repurchase the notes in whole or in part upon the occurrence of an event that constitutes a “Fundamental Change” (as defined in the indenture governing the notes including such events as a "change in control" or "termination of trading"). In such case, the repurchase price would be 100% of the principal amount of the notes plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the fundamental change repurchase date.

In September 2015, the Company repurchased 4.0% Notes due 2016 with a face value of $40.0 million on the open market at the market value of the notes on the date of the repurchase. The Company paid a total of $41.0 million in cash comprised of $40.0 million in principal and $1.0 million in premium and commissions. The Company recognized a loss on the repurchase of $1.1 million in Interest expense and other expense, net. The loss consisted of $1.0 million in premiums and commissions and $101,000 in unamortized issuance costs relating to the $40.0 million repurchased.

The Company pays cash interest at an annual rate of 4.00%, payable semi-annually on March 15 and September 15 of each year through maturity. Debt issuance costs were approximately $6.4 million and are amortized to interest expense over the term of the 4.0% Notes due 2016. As of October 31, 2015, unamortized deferred issuance cost was $274,000.

The 4.0% Notes due 2016 are unsecured senior obligations of the Company.

2.0% Convertible Notes Due 2021. In September 2014, the Company issued $230.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 2.0% Convertible Senior Notes due October 1, 2021 at par. The 2.0% Notes due 2021 may be converted under certain circumstances described below, based on an initial conversion rate of 56.1073 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of notes (which represents an initial conversion price of approximately $17.82 per share). The net proceeds to the Company from the sale of the 2.0% Notes due 2021 were

Table of Contents

approximately $223.6 million. The Company can settle the notes in cash, shares of common stock, or any combination thereof.

The Company separately accounts for the liability and equity components of the 2.0% Notes due 2021. The principal amount of the liability component of $177.9 million as of the date of issuance was recognized at fair value based on the present value of its cash flows using a discount rate of 6.0%; the Company’s borrowing rate at the date of the issuance for a similar debt instrument without the conversion feature. The residual $52.1 million was allocated to the equity component and accounted for as a discount on the notes. As of October 31, 2015, the carrying value of the equity component was unchanged from the date of issuance. The Company initially reduced stockholders' equity by $19.3 million due to the deferred tax liability related to the equity component of the notes.

The following table presents the amount of interest cost recognized relating to the contractual interest coupon, amortization of issuance costs and amortization of the discount on the liability component of the 2.0% Notes due 2021 (in thousands):



	Three Months Ended October 31,				Nine Months Ended October 31,
	2015		2014		2015		2014

Contractual interest coupon	$	1,150	$	498	$	3,450	$	498
Amortization of debt issuance cost	176		74		527		74
Amortization of debt discount	1,582		645		4,688		645
Total interest cost recognized	$	2,908	$	1,217	$	8,665	$	1,217

The effective interest rate on the liability component of the 2.0% Notes due 2021 was 6.0%. The remaining unamortized debt discount of $45.3 million as of October 31, 2015 will be amortized over the remaining life of the 2.0% Notes due 2021, which is approximately 5.9 years.

Holders of the 2.0% Notes due 2021 may convert the notes at their option on any day prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding July 1, 2021 only under the following circumstances: (1) during the five business day period after any 10 consecutive trading day period (the “Measurement Period”) in which the trading price per Note for each day of that Measurement Period was less than 98% of the product of the closing sale price of our common stock and the conversion rate on each such day; (2) during any calendar quarter after the calendar quarter ending December 31, 2014, if the last reported sale price of our common stock for 20 or more trading days in a period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter exceeds 130% of the applicable conversion price in effect on each such trading day; or (3) upon the occurrence of specified corporate events. The Notes will be convertible, regardless of the foregoing circumstances, at any time from, and including, July 1, 2021 until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the applicable maturity date. The notes may not be redeemed by the Company prior to their maturity date.

Upon conversion the Company will pay cash and, if applicable, deliver shares of its common stock, based on a “Daily Conversion Value” calculated on a proportionate basis for each “VWAP Trading Day” (each as defined in the Indenture) of the relevant 20 VWAP Trading Day observation period. The Company intends to settle the principal amount owed with respect to any 2% Notes due 2021 in cash and to settle the remaining amount in shares of the Company’s common stock. The initial conversion rate for the Notes is 56.1073 shares of common stock per $1,000 in principal amount of Notes, equivalent to a conversion price of approximately $17.82 per share of common stock. The conversion rate is subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments. Upon the occurrence of a “make-whole fundamental change” (as defined in the Indenture), the Company will in certain circumstances increase the conversion rate for a holder who elects to convert its 2.0% Notes due 2021 in connection with such a make-whole fundamental change.

The Company will pay cash interest on the 2.0% Notes due 2021 at an annual rate of 2.00%, payable semi-annually in arrears on April 1 and October 1 of each year beginning April 2015. Debt issuance costs were approximately $6.4 million, of which $1.4 million was allocated to additional paid-in capital and $5.0 million was allocated to deferred issuance costs and is amortized to interest expense over the term of the 2% Notes due 2021. As of October 31, 2015, unamortized deferred issuance cost was $4.2 million.

The 4.0% Notes due 2016 and the 2.0% Notes due 2021 are equal in rank.

Concurrently with the issuance of the 2.0% Notes due 2021, the Company purchased convertible note hedges and sold warrants. The convertible note hedge and warrant transactions are structured to reduce the potential

Table of Contents

future economic dilution associated with the conversion of the 2.0% Notes due 2021. The strike price on the warrant transactions related to the 2% Notes is initially $24.00 per share, which is 75% above the closing price of TiVo's common stock on September 16, 2014.

Convertible Note Hedge Transactions. Counterparties entered into convertible note hedge transactions with the Company covering approximately 12.9 million shares of the Company’s common stock, which is the number of shares initially underlying the 2.0% Notes due 2021. The convertible note hedge transactions, which have an initial strike price of $17.82 (corresponding to the initial conversion price of the 2.0% Notes due 2021) may be settled through net share settlement (in which case the Company will receive shares of common stock based on the amount by which the market price of the Company’s common stock, as measured under the convertible note hedge transactions, exceeds the strike price of the convertible note hedge transactions), cash settlement (in which case the Company will receive cash in lieu of the shares deliverable upon net share settlement), or a combination thereof, which settlement method will generally correspond to the settlement method elected with respect to the 2.0% Notes due 2021. The convertible note hedge transactions are only exercisable upon conversions of the 2.0% Notes due 2021 and will expire upon the earlier of the maturity date of the 2.0% Notes due 2021 or the date on which the 2.0% Notes due 2021 cease to be outstanding. Settlement of the convertible note hedge transactions through net share settlement is expected to result in the Company receiving a number of shares equal to the number of shares issuable by the Company upon net share settlement of the 2.0% Notes due 2021. The convertible note hedge transactions cost of $54.0 million has been accounted for as an equity transaction. The Company initially recorded approximately $20.0 million in stockholders’ equity from the deferred tax asset related to the convertible note hedges at inception of the transactions. As of October 31, 2015 the Company had not received any shares under these convertible note hedge transactions.

Warrants. Concurrently with the purchase of the convertible note hedge transactions, the Company received $30.2 million from the sale to the counterparties to the convertible note hedge transactions of warrants to purchase up to approximately 12.9 million shares of the Company’s common stock at an initial strike price of $24.00 per share. The warrants expire on various dates between January 1, 2022 and March 29, 2022 and are exercisable on their expiration dates. The warrants may be settled through net share settlement (in which case the Company will be required to deliver to the counterparties a number of shares based on the amount by which the market price of the Company’s common stock, as measured under the warrants, exceeds the strike price of the warrants) or, at the Company’s option, subject to certain conditions, through cash settlement (in which case the Company will owe the counterparties cash in lieu of the shares deliverable upon net share settlement). As of October 31, 2015, the warrants had not been exercised and remained outstanding. The value of the warrants was initially recorded in equity and continues to be classified as equity.

8. NET INCOME PER COMMON SHARE

Basic net income per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, excluding unvested restricted stock.

Diluted net income per common share is computed based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock plus the effect of dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period. Dilutive potential common shares include outstanding stock options, stock awards, and performance stock awards and are calculated using the treasury stock method. Also included in the weighted average effect of dilutive securities for the nine months ended October 31, 2014 is the diluted effect of the 4.0% Notes due 2016 which is calculated using the if-converted method. The 4.0% Notes due 2016 have an anti-dilutive effect on the three and nine months ended October 31, 2015 and the three months ended October 31, 2014 and have been excluded from our calculation of net income per common share for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2015 and the three months ended October 31, 2014.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per common share:

The weighted average number of shares outstanding used in the computation of diluted net income per share in the three and nine months ended October 31, 2015 and 2014 do not include the effect of the following potentially outstanding common stock because the effect would have been anti-dilutive:



	Three Months Ended October 31,		Nine Months Ended October 31,

Unvested restricted stock	138,204	71	4,158	3,426

Total	40,871,509	28,636,600	41,385,809	4,639,269

Effect of conversion on net income per share. The 2.0% Notes due 2021 have no impact on diluted net income per share until the average quarterly price of our common stock exceeds the conversion price of $17.82 per share. Prior to conversion, we will include the effect of the additional shares that may be issued if our common stock price exceeds $17.82 per share using the treasury stock method. If the average price of our common stock exceeds $24.00 per share for a quarterly period, we will also include the effect of the additional potential shares that may be issued related to the Warrants using the treasury stock method. Prior to conversion, the convertible note hedges are not considered for purposes of the calculation of net income (loss) per share, as their effect would be anti-dilutive. Upon conversion, the convertible note hedges are expected to offset the dilutive effect of the 2.0% Notes due 2021 when the stock price is above $17.82 per share.

9. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

Total stock-based compensation for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2015 and 2014 is as follows:

10. ACQUISITIONS

On May 22, 2015, the Company acquired all outstanding shares of Cubiware Sp. Z.o.o., a privately-held company based in Warsaw, Poland that is a provider of middleware, UI software, and back-office software solutions for set-top boxes to enable interactive television applications, pursuant to a Share Purchase Agreement dated May 22, 2015. This acquisition expands TiVo’s international presence, provides TiVo with a more cost effective product offering for these new developing and emerging markets, and helps TiVo expand into new product categories. The purchase consideration issued includes an initial cash payment of $16.0 million subject to customary working capital adjustments, guaranteed payments of $11.5 million to be paid over three years contingent on continued employment of certain key individuals, and additional cash earn-outs (not to exceed $20.5 million in aggregate) payable over three years contingent upon achieving certain revenue and EBITDA targets for each of the twelve month periods following the date of the Company’s acquisition. Cubiware’s results of operations and the estimated fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed were included in the Company's unaudited consolidated financial statements beginning May 22, 2015. Acquisition costs, which were expensed as incurred, were approximately $1.1 million. These acquisition costs were primarily comprised of fees for legal and accounting services, travel expenses, and local transfer taxes incurred in connection with the acquisition of Cubiware.

For the purpose of purchase accounting, preliminary purchase consideration is comprised of the $19.8 million of cash paid upon acquisition, which includes the initial cash payment of $16.0 million and $3.8 million of working capital adjustments, and the $9.4 million fair value of estimated cash earn-outs contingent upon achieving certain revenue and EBITDA targets for each of the three twelve-month periods following the date of the Company’s acquisition. The fair value of estimated cash earn-outs was determined as the present value of the future cash earn-outs based on probabilities of reaching future revenue and EBITDA targets and by using a present value factor of 15%. Any changes in the fair value of estimated cash earn-outs from events after the acquisition date will be recognized in earnings of each reporting period (See Note 4 for additional information on the changes in the fair value of purchase consideration). The $11.5 million of payments which are contingent upon continued employment of certain key individuals will be expensed as a compensation expense and included in operating expenses as incurred.

The purchase consideration was preliminarily allocated to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed on the basis of their respective estimated fair values on the acquisition date. During the three months ended October 31, 2015, we finalized the working capital portion of the purchase consideration, which resulted in a $187,000 decrease in goodwill as compared to the amount previously disclosed in our Form 10-Q for the three and six months ended July 31, 2015. The Company does not believe that the measurement period adjustments to date have had a significant impact on the condensed consolidated statement of operations, balance sheet or cash flows in any period previously reported and, therefore, no retrospective adjustments were made to the Company's financial statements. The final purchase price allocation is pending the valuations for income tax liabilities in Poland which may ultimately impact the overall level of goodwill associated with the acquisition. The Company will consider any additional information which existed as of the acquisition date but was unknown to the Company at that time, that may become known to the Company during the remainder of the measurement period, a period not to exceed twelve months from the acquisition date, and may result in a change in the purchase price allocation. While management believes that its preliminary estimates and assumptions underlying the valuations are reasonable, different estimates and assumptions could result in different valuations assigned to the individual

assets acquired and liabilities assumed, and the resulting amount of goodwill. The Company's preliminary allocation of the total purchase consideration is as follows:

Intangibles	16,700
Goodwill	10,436
Total purchase consideration	$	29,057

The following table presents details of the intangible assets acquired through this business combination (in thousands, except years):



Description	Asset Life in years	Fair Value
Software technology	5 - 6	$	8,900
Customer relationships	7 - 9	$	7,300
Trade name	8	$	500
Total identifiable intangible assets		$	16,700

The Company does not believe there is any significant residual value associated with these intangible assets. The Company amortizes the intangible assets on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. The value of Software technology is amortized to Costs of service and software revenues. The value of Customer relationships and Trade name is amortized to Sales and marketing within Total operating expenses. The Company's management determined the fair values of the intangible assets with the assistance of a valuation firm. The estimation of the fair value of the intangible assets required the use of valuation techniques and entailed consideration of all the relevant factors that might affect the fair value, such as present value factors, estimates of future revenues and costs. The estimated fair values of the intangibles acquired were determined based on the royalty approach for software technology, a multi-period excess earnings approach for customer relationships, and a relief-from-royalty method for trade name with key assumptions including: 1) forecasted revenue and operating results; 2) royalty rates; 3) discount rates ranging from 21.5% to 26.5%; 4) customer attrition rates; and 5) software lives.

Goodwill

Table of Contents

The goodwill amount of $10.4 million represents the excess of the purchase consideration over the fair value of the identified net tangible and intangible assets. The goodwill recognized in this acquisition was derived from expected benefits from future technology, cost synergies and knowledgeable, and experienced workforce who joined the Company after the acquisition. Goodwill will not be amortized, but will be tested instead for impairment annually or more frequently if certain indicators of impairment are present. Goodwill is not expected to be tax deductible for income tax purposes.

The results of operations related to these acquisitions have been included in our consolidated statements of operations from the acquisition date. Pro forma results of operations have not been presented because the acquisitions were not material to our results of operations.

The Company has determined that the functional currency of Cubiware is the Polish Zloty. Gains and losses from the translation of Cubiware assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses into U.S. dollars are credited or charged to foreign currency translation adjustments, included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in stockholders’ equity.

11. INCOME TAX

The Company recorded income tax expense of $5.8 million and $19.8 million, respectively for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2015 as compared to income tax expense of $7.1 million and $20.9 million, respectively for the same prior year periods. The effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2015 was 52% and 48%, respectively. The effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2014 was 53% and 47%, respectively.

The provision for income taxes for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2015 and 2014 differs from the U.S. statutory tax rate of 35% primarily due to the tax impact of non-deductible compensation, stock based compensation, and state taxes.

As of October 31, 2015, the Company believes that its deferred tax assets are more likely than not to be realized, with the exception of California deferred tax assets. The Company continues to maintain a valuation allowance on its California deferred tax assets as it is not more likely than not that these deferred tax assets will be realized.

12. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On November 17, 2015, TiVo Inc. announced that Thomas S. Rogers, its current chief executive officer and president, will be stepping down from those roles effective the earlier of January 31, 2016 or upon the appointment of his successor. Effective February 1, 2016, the Board of Directors has appointed Mr. Rogers as non-executive chairman of the Board, and he will serve out his current term as a director. In connection with the transition of Mr. Rogers, the Board of Directors has terminated Mr. Roger’s employment agreement pursuant to Section 5 (c)-(i). TiVo and Mr. Rogers entered into a transition agreement, effective as of November 13, 2015, pursuant to which Mr. Rogers will receive the following compensation and benefits under his employment agreement: a sum equal to $4.6 million, an additional bonus upon attainment of applicable performance criteria, accelerated vesting of all equity-related awards (including cash settled restricted stock units) held by Mr. Rogers and continued health and welfare coverage for up to 24 months. Based on stock price on November 17, 2015, TiVo expects to record a one-time charge in the fourth quarter of the fiscal year ended January 31, 2016 of approximately $11.0 million - 12.0 million before tax, related to Mr. Rogers’ transition.



ITEM 2.	MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

You should read the following discussion and analysis in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes included in this report and our most recent annual report on Form 10-K filed on March 19, 2015, the sections entitled “Risk Factors” in Item 1A of our most recent annual report on Form 10-K and Part II, Item 1A of this quarterly report, as well as other cautionary statements and risks described elsewhere in this report and our most recent annual report on Form 10-K filed on March 19, 2015 before deciding to purchase, sell or hold our common stock.

Company Overview

We are a global leader in next-generation television software services and innovative cloud-based software-as-a-service solutions that enable viewers to consume content across all screens in and out of the home. The TiVo experience provides an all-in-one approach for navigating the ‘content chaos’ by seamlessly combining live,

Table of Contents

recorded, video on demand or VOD, and over-the-top (e.g. Netflix, Amazon, Hulu Plus, Vudu, and YouTube, among others) television into one intuitive user interface with simple universal search, discovery, viewing and recording, creating the ultimate viewing experience. We distribute our software, technology, and services through an increasing variety of consumer electronic applications and devices, such as television set-top boxes with and without DVR functionality, smartphones, and tablets. We offer a full whole-home solution that includes 4-Tuner and 6-Tuner DVRs/gateways, non-DVR IP set-top boxes (STBs), and software to enable streaming to applications on third-party devices such as iOS and Android mobile phones and tablets through features such as What to Watch Now, OnePass, integrated search (including content from both traditional linear television, cable VOD, and broadband sources in one user interface), access to broadband video content, TiVo Online/Mobile Scheduling.

As of October 31, 2015, there were approximately 6.5 million subscriptions to the TiVo service through our TiVo-Owned and MSO businesses, and we have relationships with over 70 operators through our MSO, Digitalsmiths, and Cubiware businesses. In our TiVo-Owned business, we distribute TiVo devices through third-party retailers and through our on-line store at TiVo.com. Additionally, in our MSO business we generate service and, in some cases, hardware revenues by providing the TiVo service through agreements with leading satellite and cable television service providers and broadcasters on MSO provisioned STBs (both through TiVo supplied and third-party supplied STBs) and other devices. We also generate technology revenues through engineering professional services in connection with the development and deployment of the TiVo service to our MSO customers. Further, our Digitalsmiths' products enable television service providers to offer cloud-based search and discovery capabilities independent of the TiVo brand and particular software on the set-top box or mobile device, while our Cubiware products allow us to provide cost-effective software solutions for developed and emerging market Pay TV operators.

During the three past fiscal years ending January 31, 2015, we purchased a total of 37,588,207 shares of our common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $460 million. On September 5, 2014, our board of directors authorized the current discretionary share repurchase program that allows for total new repurchases of $550 million. This plan will expire on January 31, 2017. Under the current discretionary share repurchase program and as of October 31, 2015, we had purchased 21,538,339 shares of common stock at a weighted average price of $12.36 per share for an aggregate purchase price of $266.1 million. Shares repurchased are included in issued common shares, but are excluded from outstanding common shares. Additionally, in September 2015, the Company repurchased 4.0% Notes due 2016 with a face value of $40.0 million on the open market. This transaction was made using funds approved under the current discretionary share repurchase program. Any future repurchase or repayment of 4.0% Notes due 2016 will be made using the funds approved under the current discretionary share repurchase program. The remaining authorized amount for stock repurchases under this program was $243.9 million.

We have engaged in significant intellectual property litigation with certain television service and technology providers in the United States to protect our technology from infringement. To date, we have received cash and future technology revenue payment commitments of approximately $1.6 billion from intellectual property litigation.

Executive Overview

Fiscal year 2016

In the fiscal year ending January 31, 2016, we plan to continue to be focused on our efforts to build leading advanced television products, enter into new distribution agreements, engage in development work for existing distribution customers, and continue deployment activities for our existing distribution customers. Additionally, we have been and plan to continue to actively protect our intellectual property. We will continue to focus on the following priorities:

•We expect to continue our efforts to increase our subscription base by adding new subscriptions through our mass distribution relationships both in the U.S. and internationally.

•We also expect to continue our efforts to drive growth in our TiVo-Owned Subscriptions. These efforts include initiatives to offer products into growing segments such as OTA and product enhancements focused on streaming, content, mobile, and personalization to improve the viewing experience, including the recent launch of our TiVo BOLT™ product during the third quarter. To the extent these efforts are successful at growing our subscription base, we may invest incremental capital in subscription acquisition activities and/or further product enhancements.

•We believe giving operators a choice of hardware platforms is critical to attracting new MSO customers, and driving increased penetration in current MSO customers to increase our MSO service revenues in the long term. As a result, we expect MSO hardware revenues and margins to likely decline in

Table of Contents

the future as U.S. MSO customers transition to third-party hardware such as Arris, Evolution, and other products which can support our TiVo service. Although we lose hardware margin in the short term from decreased hardware sales, we believe we gain additional subscribers through MSOs that would not otherwise be willing to sell the TiVo service.

•We expect to see revenue growth from our Digitalsmiths products and services. Digitalsmiths currently has business relationships with seven of the top ten U.S. Pay TV operators as well as various consumer electronics manufacturers and content providers. Additionally, we are focused on signing additional distribution customers for Digitalsmiths both in the U.S. and internationally as well as launching new Digitalsmiths' products and services.

•We plan on supporting Cubiware's growth potential as an innovative provider of cost-effective software solutions for developed and emerging market Pay TV operators. With more than 40 Pay TV operators in 25 countries, Cubiware has expanded TiVo's international presence, positioning TiVo to offer a broader array of compelling, cost effective solutions for Pay TV operators across the world.

•We believe that our investment in research and development is critical to remaining competitive and being a leader in advanced television solutions. We expect to continue to invest to launch and pursue new product developments including enhanced cloud-based services such as network DVR, a more personalized user experience, expanded mobile applications, out-of-home streaming capabilities, data analytics, and a variety of back-office enhancements which increase our operational capacity to handle more operator deployments.

•We will continue our efforts to protect our technological innovations and intellectual property. As such, our litigation expenses may be higher for the remainder of the fiscal year ending January 31, 2016 and beyond as we have recently filed a patent infringement lawsuit against Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd., Samsung Electronics America, Inc., and Samsung Telecommunications America, LLC.

•We expect to continue our development efforts under our existing MSO deployment arrangements. As part of these arrangements, we typically receive some payments upfront and a portion over time that is a recoupment of costs to develop or implement. As such, to the extent that our development costs exceed upfront development or implementation fees from such arrangements, but the recovery of such development costs through future service fees from these MSOs is reasonably assured, we will defer such development costs and start expensing them in our Statement of Operations later upon deployment with the MSO. As of October 31, 2015 we had deferred costs of approximately $16.8 million related to development work, largely related to Com Hem, Charter Communications Operating, LLC (Charter) and Cogeco. However, despite the deferral of these development costs, we do incur cash outflows associated with these development efforts resulting in potentially higher cash usage in the near term. Also for international MSOs outside of North America, when related revenues from service fees are received, they are first recognized as technology revenues until the previously deferred costs of development of such arrangements are expensed. Based on the contractual commitments or recent MSO activities, full recovery of the deferred costs is reasonably assured. However, we face the risk of unexpected losses if we are forced to recognize these deferred costs early if we don't successfully complete the developments and deployments with the MSO partners or these partners default on future guaranteed service fees or are otherwise able to terminate their contracts with us.

Key Business Metrics

Management periodically reviews certain key business metrics in order to evaluate our operations, allocate resources, and drive financial performance in our business. Management monitors these metrics together and not individually as it does not make business decisions based upon any single metric.

Subscriptions and Households. Management reviews the number of subscriptions and households, and believes they may be useful to investors, in order to evaluate our relative position in the marketplace and to forecast future potential service revenues. Below is a table that details the change in our subscription base during the last eight quarters. The TiVo-Owned Subscription lines refer to subscriptions sold directly or indirectly by TiVo to consumers who have TiVo-enabled devices (such as a DVR or TiVo Mini) and for which TiVo incurs acquisition costs. The MSO Subscription lines refer to subscriptions sold to consumers by MSOs such as Cogeco, Com Hem, Mediacom, Vodafone Spain (ONO), RCN, Suddenlink, and Virgin, among others, and for which TiVo expects to incur little or no acquisition costs. Additionally, we provide a breakdown of the average subscriptions for the quarter, the total MSO households and the MSO average households for the quarter, the number of fully amortized active product lifetime subscriptions, and percent of TiVo-Owned Subscriptions for which consumers pay recurring fees as opposed to a one-time prepaid product lifetime fee.

We define a “subscription” as a contract referencing a TiVo-enabled device such as a DVR or a non-DVR device such as a TiVo Mini for which (i) a consumer has paid or committed to pay for the TiVo service and (ii) service is not canceled. Each TiVo-Owned Subscription represents a single TiVo-enabled device (as defined above) and therefore one or more TiVo-Owned Subscriptions may be present in a single household. TiVo-Owned Subscriptions currently pay for the TiVo service on a recurring payment plan (such as a monthly or annual payment plan) or on a one-time basis for the life of TiVo-enabled device (referred to as product lifetime subscriptions here and sold commercially as All-in subscriptions). Beginning in October 2014, each TiVo Mini sale has included a product lifetime subscription for that TiVo Mini device, which have much lower average revenues than DVRs. Sales of the TiVo Mini device began in March 2013. TiVo Mini represented 13% and 6% of cumulative TiVo-Owned Subscriptions as of October 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Increasing sales of TiVo Minis have helped slow, and in some quarters, led to increases in our cumulative TiVo-Owned Subscriptions as well as increased the number of subscriptions (devices) per TiVo-Owned household. This trend has resulted in a slower rate of decline in the total number of TiVo-Owned households. The 44% increase in gross additions of TiVo-Owned Subscriptions in the quarter compared to the year ago quarter led to a net addition of TiVo-Owned Subscriptions, which was driven primarily on changes in our whole-home pricing, including the bundling of product lifetime subscriptions with each TiVo Mini device, sales of our TiVo OTA (over-the-air) product, and the launch of our latest innovation the TiVo BOLT™ product. Subscriptions do not include soft-clients (i.e. iPad application or web portal) or digital tuning adapter users. We count product lifetime subscriptions in our subscription base until both of the following conditions are met: (i) the period we use to recognize product lifetime subscription revenues ends; and (ii) the related TiVo-enabled device has not made contact with the TiVo service within the prior six month period. Product lifetime subscriptions past this period which have not called into the TiVo service for six months are not counted in this total.

We define a "household" as one or more devices associated with the same contract or customer number. We currently do not report TiVo-Owned households as we currently receive incremental revenue for each new TiVo-Owned Subscription in the TiVo-Owned business whereas, in some cases, our MSO customers pay us on a per household basis. MSO Subscriptions are a count of the number of devices that connect to the TiVo service and one or more devices may be present in a single MSO Household.

We calculate average subscriptions for the period by adding the average subscriptions for each month and dividing by the number of months in the period. We calculate the average subscriptions for each month by adding the beginning and ending subscriptions for the month and dividing by two. We calculate Average MSO Households for the period by adding the average households for each month and dividing by the number of months in the

period. We calculate the average households for each month by adding the beginning and ending households for the month and dividing by two. We are not aware of any uniform standards for defining subscriptions or households and caution that our presentation may not be consistent with that of other companies. Additionally, the fees that our MSOs pay us are typically based upon a specific contractual definition of a subscriber, subscription, household or a TiVo-enabled device which may not be consistent with how we define a subscription or household for our reporting purposes nor be representative of how such fees are calculated and paid to us by our MSOs. Our MSOs Subscription and MSO Household data is dependent in part on reporting from our third-party MSO partners.

TiVo-Owned Subscriptions increased by 11,000 during the three months ended October 31, 2015, as compared to a decrease of 9,000 in the same prior year period. The TiVo-Owned installed subscription base increased to 952,000 subscriptions as of October 31, 2015 as compared to 928,000 as of October 31, 2014. We believe the year over year increase in total TiVo-Owned Subscriptions and improvement in net TiVo-Owned Subscription losses was primarily due to increased sales of TiVo Minis and TiVo OTA as well as the launch of the TiVo BOLT.

Our MSO installed subscription base increased by 418,000 subscriptions during the three months ended October 31, 2015, to 5.5 million subscriptions as of October 31, 2015. The increase in cumulative MSO Subscriptions of approximately 1.3 million subscriptions from October 31, 2014 is due to subscription growth from a variety of partners including Cogeco, Com Hem, Mediacom, ONO, RCN, Suddenlink, Virgin, and others. This subscription growth is largely related to international MSO subscriptions though domestic MSO subscription growth has increased as a contributor. We expect continued growth in our MSO installed subscription base through continued growth from existing distribution and as additional MSO distribution deals launch.

TiVo-Owned Churn Rate per Month. Management reviews this metric, and believes it may be useful to investors, in order to evaluate our ability to retain existing TiVo-Owned Subscriptions (including both monthly and product lifetime subscriptions) by providing services that are competitive in the market. Management believes factors such as service enhancements, service commitments, higher customer satisfaction, and improved customer support may improve this metric. Conversely, management believes factors such as increased competition, lack of competitive service features such as high definition television recording capabilities in our older model DVRs or access to certain digital television channels or MSO Video On Demand services, as well as increased price sensitivity, CableCARD^TM installation issues, and CableCARD^TM technology limitations, may cause our TiVo-Owned Churn Rate per month to increase.

We define the TiVo-Owned Churn Rate per month as the total TiVo-Owned Subscription cancellations in the period divided by the Average TiVo-Owned Subscriptions for the period (including both monthly and product lifetime subscriptions), which then is divided by the number of months in the period. We calculate Average TiVo-Owned Subscriptions for the period by adding the average TiVo-Owned Subscriptions for each month and dividing by the number of months in the period. We calculate the average TiVo-Owned Subscriptions for each month by adding the beginning and ending subscriptions for the month and dividing by two. We are not aware of any uniform standards for calculating churn and caution that our presentation may not be consistent with that of other companies.

The following table presents our TiVo-Owned Churn Rate per month information:

TiVo-Owned Churn Rate per month was (1.4)% and (1.6)% for the quarters ended October 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The decrease in churn for the quarter ended October 31, 2015 was largely due to the increase in the base of TiVo-Owned subscriptions. Included in our TiVo-Owned Churn Rate per month are those product lifetime subscriptions that have both reached the end of the revenue recognition period and whose DVRs have not contacted the TiVo service within the prior six months. Conversely, we do not count as churn product lifetime subscriptions that have not reached the end of the revenue recognition period, regardless of whether such subscriptions continue to contact the TiVo service.

Subscription Acquisition Cost or SAC. Management reviews this metric, and believes it may be useful to investors, in order to evaluate trends in the efficiency of our marketing programs and subscription acquisition strategies. We define SAC as our total TiVo-Owned acquisition costs for a given period divided by TiVo-Owned Subscription gross additions for the same period. We define total acquisition costs as sales and marketing, subscription acquisition costs less net TiVo-Owned related hardware revenues (defined as TiVo-Owned related gross hardware revenues less rebates, revenue share and market development funds paid to retailers) plus TiVo-Owned related cost of hardware revenues. The sales and marketing, subscription acquisition costs line item includes advertising expenses and promotion-related expenses directly related to subscription acquisition activities, but does not include expenses related to advertising sales. We do not include third-parties’ subscription gross additions, such as MSOs' gross additions with TiVo subscriptions, in our calculation of SAC because we typically incur limited or no acquisition costs for these new subscriptions, and so we also do not include MSOs’ sales and marketing, subscription acquisition costs, hardware revenues, or cost of hardware revenues in our calculation of TiVo-Owned SAC. We are not aware of any uniform standards for calculating total acquisition costs or SAC and caution that our presentation may not be consistent with that of other companies.

As a result of the seasonal nature of our subscription growth in the past, total acquisition costs have varied significantly during the year. Management primarily reviews the SAC metric on an annual basis due to the timing difference between our recognition of promotional program expense and the subsequent addition of the related subscriptions. For example, we have historically experienced increased TiVo-Owned Subscription gross additions during the fourth quarter; however, Sales and marketing, subscription acquisition activities occur throughout the year.

During the three months ended October 31, 2015, our total acquisition costs were $9.5 million, an increase of $3.9 million, as compared to the same prior year period. This increase was largely driven by price reductions on consumer hardware which led to a higher TiVo-Owned hardware loss of $3.1 million as compared to the same prior year period. Additionally, we had an increase in Sales and marketing, subscription costs of $878,000 related to the launch of TiVo BOLT.

During the twelve months ended October 31, 2015 our total acquisition costs were $28.6 million, an increase of approximately $5.1 million compared to the same prior year period. This increase was largely driven by price

Table of Contents

reductions on consumer hardware which led to a higher TiVo-Owned hardware loss of $6.7 million as compared to the same prior year period. The increase was partially offset by decreased sales and marketing subscription acquisition costs of $1.6 million largely related to a high level of marketing efforts during the three months ended January 31, 2014 associated with the release and holiday sales of our Roamio DVRs.

The decrease in SAC of $10 for the twelve months ended October 31, 2015 as compared to the same prior year period was largely a result of an increase in the number of TiVo-Owned Subscription gross additions.

TiVo-Owned Average Revenue Per Subscription or ARPU. Management reviews this metric, and believes it may be useful to investors in order to evaluate the potential of our subscription base to generate service revenues. Investors should not use ARPU as a substitute for measures of financial performance calculated in accordance with GAAP. Management believes it is useful to consider this metric excluding the costs associated with rebates, revenue share, and other payments to channel because of the discretionary and varying nature of these expenses and because management believes these expenses, which are included in hardware revenues, net, are more appropriately monitored as part of SAC. We are not aware of any uniform standards for calculating ARPU and caution that our presentation may not be consistent with that of other companies.

We calculate TiVo-Owned service revenues by subtracting MSOs'-related service revenues and Media services and other service and software revenues (include Advertising, Research, Cubiware revenues, and Digitalsmiths revenues), from our total reported net Service and Software revenues. The table below provides a more detailed breakdown of our Service and Software revenues, and reconciles to our total Service and Software revenues in our Statement of Operations as reported:

We calculate ARPU per month for TiVo-Owned Subscriptions by taking total reported net TiVo-Owned service revenues and dividing the result by the number of months in the period. We then divide the resulting average service revenue by Average TiVo-Owned Subscriptions for the period, calculated as described above for churn rate. The following table shows this calculation:

The decrease in TiVo-Owned ARPU per month for the three months ended October 31, 2015 as compared to the same prior year period was due primarily to an increase in sales of service for TiVo Mini, which have much lower average revenues than DVRs.

Critical Accounting Estimates

In preparing our condensed consolidated financial statements, we make assumptions, judgments and estimates that can have a significant impact on our revenue, operating income (loss) and net income (loss), as well as on the value of certain assets and liabilities on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. We base our assumptions, judgments and estimates on historical experience and various other factors that we believe to be

Table of Contents

reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. At least quarterly, we evaluate our assumptions, judgments and estimates and make changes accordingly. Historically, our assumptions, judgments and estimates relative to our critical accounting estimates have not differed materially from actual results. Other than the critical accounting estimates relating to the fair value of estimated cash earn-outs for the acquisition of Cubiware as discussed in Note 10, there have been no other changes to our critical accounting estimates from our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2015.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May, 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. The ASU will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP when it becomes effective. In July 2015, the FASB approved a one year deferral to the effective date of ASU 2014-09 for all entities so that the new standard will be effective for the Company on February 1, 2018. The standard permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. The Company is evaluating the effect that ASU 2014-09 will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. The Company has not yet selected a transition method nor has it determined the effect of the standard on its ongoing financial reporting.

In April 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2015‑03, Interest-Imputation of Interest, to simplify the presentation of debt issuance costs by requiring that debt issuance costs be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The new standard is effective for the Company on February 1, 2016. While permitted, the Company has elected not to early adopt this ASU. Upon adoption, the new standard will result in a total decrease of prepaid expenses and other, current and long-term assets and a decrease in the carrying amount of the Company's current and long-term convertible senior notes of approximately $4.4 million as of October 31, 2015 and $6.1 million as of January 31, 2015.

Net Revenues.

Our net revenues for the nine months ended October 31, 2015 and 2014 as a percentage of total net revenues were as follows:

Service and Software Revenues. The increase in Service and software revenues of $8.0 million and $18.1 million for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2015, as compared to the same prior year periods was related to an increase in MSO-related service revenues of $6.4 million and $15.5 million due to an increased subscription base and recognition of ONO service revenues which began during the three months ended January 31, 2015 as well as from an increase in Media service and other service and software revenues of $2.9 million and $6.9 million for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2015, primarily driven by the Cubiware acquisition and, to a lesser extent, increased revenue from Digitalsmiths products and services. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in TiVo-Owned Subscription revenues of $1.3 million and $4.2 million during the three and nine months ended October 31, 2015. This decrease in TiVo-Owned Subscription revenues is primarily due to the lower revenue associated with our TiVo Mini product, partially offset by an increase in our subscription base.

Technology Revenues. Technology revenues for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2015 increased by $6.8 million and $15.5 million as compared to the same prior year periods primarily due to an increase in the number and scope of technology related projects for our MSO partners and to a lesser extent an increase in licensing revenue from Verizon and AT&T.

Revenue and cash from the contractual minimums (i.e. the following amounts do not include any additional revenues from our AT&T agreement) under our licensing agreements with EchoStar, AT&T, Verizon, and Cisco and Google/Motorola Mobility through October 31, 2015 have been:

Hardware Revenues. Hardware revenues, net of allowance for sales returns and net of revenue share and marketing development fund payments for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2015 decreased by $0.9 million and $4.5 million as compared to the same prior year periods. These decreases were primarily driven by decreased TiVo-Owned hardware sales. While we had an increase in TiVo-Owned units sold, this was offset by lower prices which primarily caused the decrease in revenue. Additionally, during the nine months ended October 31, 2015, we saw a decrease in units sold to MSO operator partners as they transition to third party hardware. We expect hardware revenue related to our MSO business to decrease in the future as many of operator partners choose to deploy the TiVo service on third-party hardware.

Cost of service and software revenues consists primarily of telecommunication and network expenses, employee salaries, service center, credit card processing fees, and other expenses related to providing the TiVo service and amortization of acquired developed technology associated with our acquisitions. Cost of service and software revenues increased by $2.8 million and $5.8 million for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2015, as compared to the same prior year periods. The increases were driven by supporting our increased service and software revenues from MSO partners. Service and software gross margins increased by 1% to 60% and 62% for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2015 as compared to the same prior year periods which was driven by increased service and software revenues from MSO partners as compared to the related costs.

periods. This increase was related primarily to increased volume of development work for certain MSO partners, such as Virgin.

Technology gross margin for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2015 decreased by 5% and 4% as compared to the same prior year periods. Technology revenues consists of revenues from technology related projects for our MSO partners and licensing revenue. We earn close to a 100% gross margin on licensing revenue. As revenues from technology related projects increase as a percentage of total Technology revenues, our margin will usually decrease. During the three and nine months ended October 31, 2015, revenues from technology related projects were 16% and 14% of total Technology revenues as compared to 11% and 10% for the same prior year periods.

In certain of our distribution deals, TiVo is not being paid in full for the upfront development cost. However, in exchange, TiVo is receiving guaranteed financial commitments over the duration of the distribution deal. If we are reasonably assured that these arrangements as a whole will be profitable (assuming successful completion of development), we do not expense the development costs that exceed cash payable for the development work as incurred but rather we defer those costs and recognize these costs later when we receive service fees. However, despite the deferral of these development costs, we do incur cash outflows associated with these development efforts resulting in potentially higher cash usage in the near term. As a result, a portion of service fees used to recover the initial development costs would be classified as technology revenues and timing of recognition of these costs and revenues may differ from when these costs are actually incurred.

In accordance with our revenue recognition policies, we have deferred costs of approximately $16.8 million related to development work, largely related to Com Hem, Charter, and Cogeco and these costs are recorded on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets under deferred cost of technology revenues, current and deferred cost of technology revenues, long-term as of October 31, 2015. In instances where TiVo does not host the TiVo service, these costs (up to the amount billed) will be recognized when related revenues are recognized upon billing our customers, as specified in the agreement. In instances where TiVo hosts the TiVo service, starting upon deployment, these costs will be amortized to cost of revenues over the longer of the contractual or customer relationship period.

Cost of hardware revenues.

Cost of hardware revenues include all product costs associated with the TiVo-enabled DVRs and non-DVRs we distribute and sell, including manufacturing-related overhead and personnel, warranty, certain licensing, order fulfillment, and freight costs. We sell this hardware primarily as a means to grow our service revenues and, as a result, generating positive gross margins from hardware sales that are linked with the sale of TiVo-Owned service is not the primary goal of the consumer business.

Cost of hardware revenues for the three months ended October 31, 2015 increased by $2.7 million as compared to the same prior year period. The increase was largely due higher number of units to both MSO Operator partners and TiVo-owned customers. Hardware gross margins for the three months ended October 31, 2015 decreased from 7% to (5)% as compared to the same prior year period largely due to the mix of units sold sold during the period as compared to the same prior year period.

Cost of hardware revenues for the nine months ended October 31, 2015 increased by $3.1 million as compared to the same prior year period. The increase was largely due to a change in sales mix wherein we sold units which have a higher average cost primarily due to higher number of sales of DVRs to MSO Operator partners. Additionally, we recognized a $1.2 million charge for excess and obsolete inventory during the three months ended April 30, 2015. Hardware gross margins for the nine months ended October 31, 2015 decreased from 8% to (2)%

as compared to the same prior year period largely due to the mix of units sold sold during the period as compared to the same prior year period.

Our MSO partner absolute margins are likely to decline in future quarters as MSO partners continue to transition to third-party hardware such as the Pace and, in the future, Arris DVR and non-DVR products.

Research and development expenses.

Change from same prior year period	10		%	(6		)%	3		%	(4		)%
Percentage of net revenues	21		%	22		%	22		%	23		%

Our research and development expenses consist primarily of employee salaries, related expenses, and consulting expenses related to our development of new technologies and products, such as whole-home DVR technology and new features and functionality as well as investments in creating an integrated software code base across our product lines to increase the efficiency of our product development efforts in the future and in expanding those service and software services acquired through TiVo Research, Digitalsmiths, and Cubiware. Our research and development expenses increased by $2.5 million and $2.4 million for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2015 as compared to the same prior year periods. The increase was largely related to increased headcount and headcount related costs in the three and nine months ended October 31, 2015 which were driven by our expanding product lines of DVR's, minis, and service and software services acquired through TiVo Research, Digitalsmiths, and Cubiware.

Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of employee salaries related expenses, consulting expenses, amortization of acquired intangibles, as well as advertising expenses and promotional expenses other than those related to our efforts to acquire new TiVo-Owned Subscriptions to the TiVo service which are included in Sales and marketing, subscription acquisition costs. Sales and marketing expenses for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2015 increased by $1.6 million and $3.9 million as compared to the same prior year periods which was principally related to increased compensation related expenses largely due to increased headcount as well as other sales and marketing activities largely related to the release of the TiVo BOLT which occurred at the end of September 2015. As a percentage of revenue, sales and marketing expenses have remained flat during the three months ended October 31, 2015 and increased by 1% during the nine months ended October 31, 2015 as compared to the same prior year periods.

Sales and marketing, subscription acquisition costs include advertising expenses and promotional expenses directly related to our efforts to acquire new TiVo-Owned Subscriptions to the TiVo service. Sales and marketing, subscription acquisition expenses increased by $878,000 and $969,000 for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2015 as compared to the same prior year period due to changes in advertising spending during the current periods largely related to the release of the TiVo BOLT which occurred at the end of September 2015.

General and administrative expenses.

General and administrative expenses consist primarily of employee salaries and related expenses for executive, administrative, accounting, and legal and professional fees. During the three and nine months ended October 31, 2015, general and administrative expenses decreased by $831,000 and $1,243,000 as compared to the same prior year period which was primarily related to a reversal of the $1.5 million accrual for the Kantar litigation as the Federal Appeals Court vacated the District Court's $1.5 million fee award against TiVo Research in the three months ended October 31, 2015. This reversal was partially offset by legal fees in litigating the matter. General and administrative, net of litigation expense increased by $1.4 million and $1.8 million during the three and nine months ended October 31, 2015 as compared to the same prior year period largely due to expenses related to the acquisition of Cubiware including the amortization of guaranteed payments to be paid over three years contingent on continued employment of certain key individuals. Cubiware acquisition, general and administrative expenses during the three and nine months ended October 31, 2015 were $1.6 million and $2.8 million.

Interest income. Interest income for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2015 decreased by $3,000 and $273,000 as compared to the same prior year periods. The average cash and short-term investment balance held during the nine months ended October 31, 2015 was lower as compared to the same prior year period causing interest income to decrease over the respective period.

Interest expense and other. Interest expense and other income for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2015 increased by $2.8 million and $8.8 million compared to the same prior year periods due to amortization of the debt issuance costs and debt discount on 2.0% Notes due 2021 which were issued in September 2014. This increase was partially offset by a reduction of interest on the 4.0% Notes due 2016 due to the repurchase of 4.0% Notes due 2016 with a face value of $40 million during September 2015. Additionally, the fair value of the contingent purchase consideration related to the acquisition of Cubiware increased by $347,000 and $603,000 during the three and nine months ended October 31, 2015.

Provision for income taxes.

The provision for income taxes for the three and six months ended October 31, 2015 and 2014 differs from the U.S. statutory tax rate of 35% primarily due to the tax impact of non-deductible compensation, stock based compensation and state taxes.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We have financed our operations and met our capital expenditure requirements primarily from the proceeds from the sale of equity securities, issuance of convertible senior notes, litigation proceeds, and cash flows from operations. Our cash resources are subject, in part, to the amount and timing of cash received from our license agreements, subscriptions, deployment agreements, and hardware customers. As of October 31, 2015, we had over $670.9 million of cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments. We have $132.5 million in outstanding convertible senior subordinated notes, which are due on March 15, 2016 (the "4.0% Notes due 2016"). The 4.0% Notes due 2016 are unsecured senior obligations of TiVo and we may not redeem these notes prior to their maturity date although investors may convert the notes into TiVo common stock at any time until March 14, 2016 at their option at a conversion price of $11.16 per share. In September 2015, the Company repurchased 4.0% Notes due 2016 with a face value of $40.0 million on the open market at the market value of the notes on the date of the repurchase. The Company paid a total of $41.0 million in cash comprised of $40.0 million in principal and $1.0 million in premium and commissions. We also have $230.0 million in outstanding convertible senior notes, which are due on October 1, 2021 (the "2.0% Notes due 2021"). The 2.0% Notes due 2021 are unsecured senior obligations of TiVo. We intend to settle the principal of 2.0% Notes due 2021 in cash upon maturity. We may not redeem these notes prior to their maturity date, although investors may convert the notes at any time until July 1, 2021 at their option at a conversion price of $17.82 per share, under certain circumstances. Concurrently with the issuance of the 2.0% Notes due 2021, we purchased convertible note hedges and sold warrants. In purchasing the convertible note hedges for $54.0 million, counterparties agreed to sell to us up to approximately 12.9 million shares of our common stock, which is the number of shares initially issuable upon conversion of the 2.0% Notes due 2021 in full, at a price of $17.82 per share. TiVo received $30.2 million from the same counterparties from the sale of warrants to purchase up to approximately 12.9 million shares of our common stock at a strike price of $24.00 per share.

We believe our cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments, provide sufficient resources to fund operations, capital expenditures, future repurchases of TiVo shares in connection with our previously announced share repurchase authorization, payment of principal on 4.0% Notes due 2016 unless converted, and working capital needs through the next twelve months.

Statement of Cash Flows Discussion

The following table summarizes our cash flow activities:



	Nine Months Ended October 31,
	2015			2014
	(in thousands)
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	23,153		16,998
Net cash used in investing activities	$	(20	)	$	(101,472	)
Net cash used in financing activities	$	(60,010	)	$	(21,031	)

Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities

During the nine months ended October 31, 2015, our net cash provided by operating activities increased by $6.2 million to $23.2 million as compared to $17.0 million during the same prior year period. This is principally due to the changes in working capital offsetting lower profitability (adjusted for non-cash charges) of our business.

Net Cash Used in Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended October 31, 2015 was approximately $20,000 as compared to $101.5 million for the same prior year period.

For the nine months ended October 31, 2015, the principal uses of cash for investing activities were $16.6 million cash paid to acquire Cubiware, net of cash acquired, the purchase of property and equipment and other long-term assets of $8.2 million which is used to support our business, a long-term cost method investment of $2.4 million, and intangibles assets of $1.0 million. Those outflows were partially offset by a net cash inflow of $28.2 million related to our cash management process, and the purchase and sales of short-term investments.

For the nine months ended October 31, 2014, the principal use of cash for investing activities was the usage of $128.4 million for our acquisition of Digitalsmiths and was partially offset by a net cash inflow of $31.6 million related to our cash management process, and the purchase and sales of short-term investments. Additionally we acquired property and equipment of $4.7 million which is used to support our business.

Net Cash Used in Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities for the nine months ended October 31, 2015 was approximately $60.0 million as compared to $21.0 million for the same prior year period.

For the nine months ended October 31, 2015, the principal uses of cash for financing activities were repurchases of 4.0% Notes due 2016 for $41.0 million and $30.4 million of TiVo stock comprised of $20.3 million in repurchases pursuant to a 10b5-1 plan and $10.1 million in repurchases of restricted stock to satisfy employee tax withholdings on vesting of stock-based awards. This outflow was partially offset by proceeds from the issuance of common stock upon exercise of stock options which generated $7.6 million combined with proceeds from the issuance of common stock pursuant to the employee stock purchase plan of $3.8 million.

For the nine months ended October 31, 2014 the principal uses of cash for financing activities were repurchases of $242.5 million of TiVo stock comprised of $227.7 million in repurchases pursuant to a 10b5-1 plan and $14.8 million in repurchases of restricted stock to satisfy employee tax withholdings on vesting of stock-based awards offset by proceeds from the issuance of common stock upon exercise of stock options which generated $4.9 million, excess tax benefits from employee stock-based compensation of $12.3 million, and proceeds from the issuance of common stock pursuant to the employee stock purchase plan of $3.6 million. Additionally, in September 2014, the Company issued convertible senior notes payable for proceeds of $224.5 million net of issuance costs paid during the nine months ended October 31, 2014. In conjunction with the issuance of the convertible senior notes payable, the Company issued warrants for proceeds of $30.2 million and purchased convertible note hedges for $54.0 million.

Financing Agreements

Share Repurchases. During the three past fiscal years ending January 31, 2015, we purchased a total of 37,588,207 shares of our common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $460 million. On September 5, 2014, our board of directors authorized the current discretionary share repurchase program that allows for total new repurchases of $550 million. This plan will expire on January 31, 2017. Under the current discretionary share repurchase program and as of October 31, 2015, we had purchased 21,538,339 shares of common stock at a weighted average price of $12.36 per share for an aggregate purchase price of $266.1 million. Shares repurchased are included in issued common shares, but are excluded from outstanding common shares. Additionally, in September 2015, the Company repurchased 4.0% Notes due 2016 with a face value of $40.0 million on the open market. This transaction was made using funds approved under the current discretionary share repurchase program. Any future repurchase or repayment of 4.0% Notes due 2016 will be made using the funds approved under the current discretionary share repurchase program. The remaining authorized amount for stock repurchases under this program was $243.9 million.

Universal Shelf Registration Statement. We are a well-known seasoned issuer and are eligible to file a registration statement on Form S-3 which would be immediately effective upon filing with the SEC under which we may issue an unlimited amount of securities, including debt securities, common stock, preferred stock, and warrants. Depending on market conditions, we may issue securities under future registration statements or in private offerings exempt from registration requirements.

The table above excludes certain future payments to be made in relation to the acquisition of Cubiware which are contingent upon the occurrence of specified events. The excluded payments include the guaranteed payments of $11.5 million to be paid over three years contingent on continued employment of certain key individuals and additional cash earn-outs (not to exceed $20.5 million in aggregate) payable over three years contingent upon the achievement of certain revenue and EBITDA targets for each of the twelve month periods following the date of the Company’s acquisition (See Note 10).

Purchase Commitments with Contract Manufacturers and Suppliers. We purchase components from a variety of suppliers and use several contract manufacturers to provide manufacturing services for our products. During the normal course of business, in order to manage manufacturing lead times and help assure adequate component supply, we enter into agreements with contract manufacturers and suppliers that either allow them to procure inventory based upon criteria as defined by us or to establish the parameters defining our requirements. The table above displays that portion of our purchase commitments arising from these agreements that is firm, non-cancelable, and unconditional. If there are unexpected changes to anticipated demand for our products or in the sales mix of our products, some of the firm, non-cancelable, and unconditional purchase commitments may result in TiVo being committed to purchase excess inventory.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As part of our ongoing business, we generally do not engage in transactions that generate relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, such as entities often referred to as structured finance or special purpose entities. Accordingly, our operating results, financial condition, and cash flows are not generally subject to off-balance sheet risks associated with these types of arrangements. We did not have any material off-balance sheet arrangements as of October 31, 2015.



ITEM 3.	QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are exposed to financial market risks, including changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates.

Interest Rate Risk: Our exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to our investment portfolio. We do not use derivative financial instruments in our investment portfolio. We currently invest the majority of our cash in money market funds, investment-grade government and corporate debt, and investment-grade foreign corporate and government securities, all denominated in U.S. dollars. We maintain our investments with two financial institutions with high credit ratings. As part of our cash management process, we perform periodic evaluations of the relative credit ratings of issuers of these securities. We have not experienced any credit losses on our cash, cash equivalents, or short and long-term investments. Our investment portfolio only includes instruments with original maturities of less than two years held for investment purposes, not trading purposes. Due to the short-term nature of our cash equivalents and short-term investments we do not anticipate any material effect on our portfolio due to fluctuations in interest rates. Our convertible senior debt has a fixed interest rate and therefore we are not exposed to fluctuations in interest rates on this debt.

Table of Contents

Foreign Currency Risk: The majority of our revenue and cost is transacted in the U.S. dollar, with less than 5% of revenue and cost transacted in other currencies (primarily Euro and Polish Zloty). We also have various monetary assets and liabilities held by our wholly-owned Cubiware subsidiary and denominated in Euro and Polish Zloty. These balances are immaterial to the financial statements as a whole.



ITEM 4.	CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

We are committed to maintaining disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our periodic reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management necessarily is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures and implementing controls and procedures based on the application of management's judgment.

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act.

Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined above, were effective in reaching a reasonable level of assurance as of October 31, 2015 (the end of the period covered by this quarterly report).

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended October 31, 2015 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Inherent Limitations of Disclosure Controls and Procedures and Internal Control over Financial Reporting

A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple errors or mistakes. Additionally, controls can be circumvented or over-ridden by the individual acts of some persons, by the collusion of two or more people, or by management. The design of any system of controls is also based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements or omissions due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION



ITEM 1.	LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

The information under the heading “Legal Matters” set forth under Note 6 of Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this report, is incorporated herein by reference.



ITEM 1A.	RISK FACTORS

Before deciding to purchase, hold or sell our common stock, you should carefully consider the risk factors described below, as well as those in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 31, 2015 in the section entitled “Risk Factors”, in addition to the other cautionary statements and risks described elsewhere, and the other information contained in this report and in our other filings with the SEC, including our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 31, 2015, and subsequent reports on Form 10-Q and Form 8-K.

Privacy concerns and laws, evolving regulation of television viewing behavior as well as cloud computing, cross-border data transfer restrictions and other domestic or foreign regulations may limit the use and adoption of our services and adversely affect our business.

Regulation related to the provision of services similar to what TiVo provides through the Internet is increasing, as federal, state and foreign governments continue to adopt new laws and regulations addressing data privacy and the collection, processing, storage and use of personal information, including television viewing data. In some cases, foreign data privacy laws and regulations, such as the European Union’s Data Protection Directive, and the country-specific laws and regulations that implement that directive, also govern the processing of personal information. Further, laws are increasingly aimed at the use of personal information for marketing purposes, such as the European Union’s e-Privacy Directive, and the country-specific regulations that implement that directive. Such laws and regulations are subject to new and differing interpretations and may be inconsistent among jurisdictions. These and other requirements could reduce demand for our services or restrict our ability to store and process data or, in some cases, impact our ability to offer our services in certain locations or our customers' ability to deploy our solutions globally. For example, the European Court of Justice recently invalidated the U.S.-EU Safe Harbor framework that had been in place since 2000, which allowed companies to meet certain European legal requirements for the transfer of personal data from the European Economic Area to the United States. While other adequate legal mechanisms to lawfully transfer such data remain, the invalidation of the U.S.-EU Safe Harbor framework may result in different European data protection regulators applying differing standards for the transfer of personal data, which could result in increased regulation, cost of compliance and limitations on data transfer for TiVo and its customers. The costs of compliance with and other burdens imposed by laws, regulations and standards may limit the use and adoption of our services, reduce overall demand for our services, lead to significant fines, penalties or liabilities for noncompliance, or slow the pace at which we sign new operator customers outside the U.S., any of which could harm our business.

Our future growth depends substantially on the contributions and abilities of key executives. Our business could be harmed if we are unable to recruit, retain and motivate key personnel and our management team.

We must continue to recruit, retain and motivate key personnel and members of our management in order to maintain our current business and support our projected growth. As announced in our November 17, 2015 press release, we have initiated an executive transition plan whereby our chief executive officer will transition to non-executive chairman of our Board of Directors. The transition of our chief executive officer involves significant risks, and our ability to successfully manage this transition, recruit a new qualified chief executive officer, retain key personnel and members of our management team and manage other organizational changes resulting from this transition could adversely impact our business. If we are unable to identity or employ a successor chief executive officer by January 31, 2016, our operational performance could be negatively impacted by the appointment of an interim chief executive officer.

We depend on a limited number of third-parties to manufacture, distribute, and supply critical components, technologies, assemblies, and services for the DVRs that enable the TiVo service. We may be unable to operate our business if these parties do not perform their obligations or we are unable to incorporate such critical components or technologies into our products.

The TiVo service is enabled through the use of a DVR manufactured for us by a third-party contract manufacturer. In addition, we rely on sole suppliers for a number of key components and technologies for these DVRs and other devices we manufacture. We also rely on third-parties with whom we outsource supply-chain activities related to inventory warehousing, order fulfillment, distribution, and other direct sales logistics. We cannot be sure that these parties will perform their obligations as expected or that any revenue, cost savings, or other benefits will be derived from the efforts of these parties. If any of these parties breaches or terminates its agreement with us or otherwise fails to perform its obligations in a timely manner or we are unable to purchase or license such third party components or technologies, we may be delayed or prevented from commercializing our products and services. Because our relationships with these parties are non-exclusive, they may also support products and services that compete directly with us, or offer similar or greater support to our competitors. Any of these events could require us to undertake unforeseen additional responsibilities or devote additional resources to commercialize our products and services or require us to remove certain features or functionalities from our products which may decrease the commercial appeal of our products for our customers. Any of these outcomes would harm our ability to compete effectively and achieve increased market acceptance and brand recognition.

In addition, we face the following risks in relying on these third-parties:

Table of Contents

If our manufacturing relationships are not successful, we may be unable to satisfy demand for our products and services. We manufacture DVRs and non-DVRs that enable the TiVo service through a third-party contract manufacturer. Delays, product shortages, and other problems could impair our retail distribution and brand image and make it difficult for us to attract subscriptions. In addition, the loss of a manufacturer would require us to identify and contract with alternative sources of manufacturing, which we may be unable to do or which could prove time-consuming and expensive.

We are dependent on sole suppliers for key components, technologies and services. If these suppliers fail to perform their obligations or we are unable to purchase or license such third party components, technologies or services, we may be unable to find alternative suppliers or deliver our products and services to our customers on time or with the features and functionality they expect. We currently rely on sole suppliers for a number of the key components used in the TiVo-enabled DVRs and the TiVo service, of which we may not have written supply agreements with certain sole suppliers for key components or services for our products. For example, Broadcom is the sole supplier of the system controller for our DVR. We do not currently have a long-term written supply agreement with Broadcom although we do have limited rights to continue to purchase from Broadcom in the event Broadcom notifies us a product is being discontinued. Therefore, Broadcom is not contractually obligated to supply us with these key components on a long-term basis or at all. In addition, because we are dependent on sole suppliers for key components and services, our ability to manufacture our DVRs and other devices is subject to increased risks of supply shortages (without immediately available alternatives), exposure to unexpected cost increases in such sole supplied components, as well as other risks to our business if we were to fail to comply with conflict mineral requirements due to our reliance on these suppliers. Additionally, certain features and functionalities of our TiVo service and DVRs are dependent on third party components and technologies. If we are unable to purchase or license such third party components or technologies, we would be unable to offer certain related features and functionalities to our customers. In such a case, the desirability of our products to our customers could be reduced, thus harming our business.

Tribune is the sole supplier of the program guide data for the TiVo service. Tribune Media Services, Inc., (Tribune), is the current sole supplier of program guide data for the TiVo service. Our current Television Listings Data Agreement with Tribune originally became effective on May 14, 2007 and had an initial term of five years which TiVo has renewed for four additional years. The agreement provides each party with a termination right if the other party becomes controlled by certain third parties. If Tribune breaches its obligation to provide us with data, rejects the agreement or otherwise fails to perform its obligations under our agreement, we would be unable to provide certain aspects of the TiVo service to our customers until we are able to incorporate an alternate source of guide data. While we have a license to an alternative sources of guide data, we are not currently using it and there would be significant cost and delay involved in integrating such an alternative source of guide data should we do so in the future. Depending upon the amount of notice we receive of such a breach or rejection of our agreement, and the amount of development work required by us to incorporate an alternate source of guide data, we may be subject to a period of time in which we are unable to provide the TiVo service to our customers and distribution partners. In such an event, our business would be harmed.

If our arrangements with Broadcom or Tribune or with our third-party contract manufacturer or other suppliers of critical third party components or technologies were to terminate or expire without a replacement arrangement in place, or if we or our manufacturers were unable to obtain sufficient quantities of these components, technologies, or required program guide data from our suppliers, our search for alternate suppliers could result in significant delays, added expense or disruption in product or service availability.

We depend upon third-parties to provide supply chain services related to inventory management, order fulfillment, and direct sales logistics. We rely on third-party vendors to provide cost-effective and efficient supply chain services. Among other activities, these outsourced services relate to direct sales logistics, including order fulfillment, inventory management and warehousing, and distribution of inventory to third-party retailers. If one or several of our third-party supply chain partners were to discontinue services for us, our ability to fulfill direct sales orders and distribute inventory timely, cost effectively, or at all, would be hindered which could in turn harm our business.

We are dependent on our major retail partners for distribution of our products to consumers. We currently rely on our relationships with major retail distributors including Best Buy, Amazon, and others for distribution of TiVo-enabled DVRs. We do not typically enter into long-term volume commitments with our major retail distributors. If one or several of our major retail partners were to discontinue selling our products, the volume of TiVo-enabled DVRs sold to consumers could decrease which could in turn harm our business.
