Dolby Laboratories, Inc. files its Annual Report describing a licensing-led audio and video technology business built around Dolby Atmos, Dolby Vision, and core audio/video codecs. In fiscal 2025, 93% of revenue came from licensing and 7% from products and services. Within licensing, broadcast contributed 34% of revenue, mobile 22%, CE 12%, PC 12%, and other uses such as Dolby Cinema, gaming, automotive and patent pool administration 20%.
Dolby supports around 1,000 device manufacturers globally, relies heavily on patent pools for standard-essential codecs like AAC, AVC and HEVC, and also operates Dolby Cinema and the Dolby OptiView SaaS platform. As of September 26, 2025, the company held about 28,400 issued patents, 6,100 pending applications, and employed 2,051 people worldwide. The report highlights risks from shifting content-consumption trends, concentrated mobile and PC partners, cinema industry volatility, royalty reporting variability, and the need to keep winning standards and renewing its IP base.
