About Pixelworks

Pixelworks is a technology licensing company focused on cinematic visualization solutions, spanning content creation, delivery and display processing. Its core platform, TrueCut Motion, lets filmmakers grade motion shot by shot, managing judder, motion blur and frame rates for a consistent cinematic look across screens. Pixelworks licenses TrueCut Motion to:
- film studios, such as its work with Universal Pictures/DreamWorks Animation on Forgotten Island
- premium large-format theatrical exhibitors
- device manufacturers through a certification program, including a multi-year agreement with Meta covering its VR devices and upcoming Meta VR Glasses

In January 2026, Pixelworks sold its shares in its semiconductor subsidiary, Pixelworks Semiconductor Technology (Shanghai), to a VeriSilicon-led entity. The sale exited the image-processing chip business it had run for more than 20 years for consumer electronics, professional display and video streaming customers. The company now operates as a pure-play licensing business with a small revenue base, about $50 million in cash and short-term securities, and minimal liabilities. Updated
