PARKERVISION, INC.

17,189,660 Shares of Common Stock

This Prospectus Supplement relates to the prospectus dated April 19, 2019, as amended and supplemented from time to time (the "Prospectus") which permits the resale by the selling stockholders listed in the Prospectus of up to 17,189,660 shares of our common stock, par value $0.01 per share ("Common Stock") including:

(i) an aggregate of 1,273,540 shares of our Common Stock, consisting of 923,540 shares of Common Stock sold by us in a private placement consummated on July 6, 2016 and up to 350,000 shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of a warrant sold by us on May 27, 2016, with an exercise price of $2.00 per share and a term of five years ("2016 Warrant"); such shares were previously registered on Form S-3 which was declared effective on August 2, 2016 (File No. 333-212670) (the "Resale Registration Statement");

(ii) up to 10,000,000 shares of Common Stock by Aspire Capital Fund, LLC ("Aspire Capital") issued and issuable by us in accordance with a securities purchase agreement dated July 26, 2018 ("PIPE Agreement"); such shares were previously registered pursuant to the registrant's registration statement on Form S-1 along with a pre-effective amendment, which was declared effective on September 10, 2018 (File No. 333-226738) (the "Aspire Resale Registration Statement"); and

(iii) an aggregate of 5,916,120 shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of, and for the payment of interest from time to time at our option for, convertible promissory notes issued September 10, 2018, which have a fixed conversion price of $0.40 per share ("First 2018 Notes") and a convertible promissory note issued September 19, 2018, which has a fixed conversion price of $0.57 per share ("Second 2018 Note" and together with the First 2018 Notes, the "2018 Notes"); such shares were previously registered pursuant to the registrant's registration statement on Form S-1 which was declared effective on November 13, 2018 (File No. 333-228184) (the "Conversion Share Resale Registration Statement").

Additionally, we may receive up to an additional $1,763,500 in proceeds from the sale of our Common Stock or the exercise of warrants issued to Aspire Capital under the PIPE Agreement. We expect to use proceeds received from the exercise of warrants, if any, to fund our patent enforcement actions and for other working capital and general corporate purposes.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

1. Description of Business

ParkerVision, Inc. ("ParkerVision", "we" or the "Company") is in the business of innovating and licensing fundamental wireless technologies.

We have designed and developed proprietary radio frequency ("RF") technologies and integrated circuits based on those technologies, and we license those technologies to others for use in wireless communication products. We have expended significant financial and other resources to research and develop our RF technologies and to obtain patent protection for those technologies in the United States of America ("U.S.") and certain foreign jurisdictions. We believe certain patents protecting our proprietary technologies have been broadly infringed by others, and therefore a primary focus of our business plan is the enforcement of our intellectual property rights through patent licensing and infringement litigation efforts. We currently have patent enforcement actions ongoing in various U.S. district courts against mobile handset, smart television and other WiFi product providers, as well as semiconductor suppliers, for the infringement of a number of our RF patents. We have made significant investments in developing and protecting our technologies, the returns on which are dependent upon the generation of future revenues for realization.

2. Liquidity and Going Concern

For the three months ended March 31, 2026, we incurred a net loss of approximately $1.6 million and incurred negative cash flows from operations of approximately $0.9 million. At March 31, 2026, we had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $3.4 million and an accumulated deficit of approximately $457.2 million. At March 31, 2026, we had working capital of $1.7 million, a decrease of approximately $0.5 million from working capital at December 31, 2025. Our current liabilities at March 31, 2026 include $0.9 million in convertible debt that matures over the next twelve months if not extended by one year at the holder's option in accordance with the terms of the note. The timing and amount of proceeds, if any, from our patent enforcement actions are difficult to predict. Furthermore, a significant amount of future proceeds that we may receive from our patent enforcement and licensing programs will be utilized to repay borrowings and legal fees and expenses under our contingent funding arrangements. These circumstances raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue to operate as a going concern for a period of one year following the issue date of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

We expect that proceeds received by us from patent enforcement actions and technology licenses over the next twelve months may not alone be sufficient to cover our working capital requirements. We anticipate that all of our outstanding convertible notes will either (i) be converted by the holders prior to their scheduled maturity dates, or (ii) have their maturity dates automatically extended as provided under the terms of certain agreements; however, conversion and/or extension is at the option of the holder and there can be no assurance with respect to the holder's behavior. Even with the conversions or extensions of our convertible debt by the holders, our current capital resources are not sufficient to meet our liquidity needs for the next twelve months and we may be required to seek additional capital. Our ability to meet our liquidity needs for the next twelve months is dependent upon (i) our ability to successfully negotiate licensing agreements and/or settlements relating to the use of our technologies by others in excess of our contingent payment obligations, (ii) our ability to control operating costs, (iii) the behavior of our convertible note holders, and/or (iv) our ability to obtain additional debt or equity financing.

6
Table of Contents

We expect to continue to invest in the support of our patent licensing and enforcement program. The long-term continuation of our business plan is dependent upon the generation of sufficient cash flows from our technology licenses to offset expenses and debt obligations. In the event that we do not generate sufficient cash flows, we will be required to obtain additional funding through public or private debt or equity financing or contingent fee arrangements and/or reduce operating costs. Failure to generate sufficient cash flows, raise additional capital through debt or equity financings or contingent fee arrangements, and/or reduce operating costs will have a material adverse effect on our ability to meet our long-term liquidity needs and achieve our intended long-term business objectives.

3. Basis of Presentation

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the three month period ended March 31, 2026 were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2026, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2026, or future years. All normal and recurring adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair statement of the consolidated financial condition and results of operations have been included.

The year-end condensed consolidated balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025. Certain information and disclosures normally included in the notes to the annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been omitted from these unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements. These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our latest Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 ("2025 Annual Report"). Certain reclassifications have been made to prior period amounts to conform to the current period presentation.

4. Accounting Policies

In November 2024, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2024-04, Debt - Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) - Induced Conversions of Convertible Debt Instruments, which clarifies the assessment of whether a transaction should be accounted for as an induced conversion or an extinguishment of convertible debt when changes are made to conversion features as part of an offer to settlement the instrument. We adopted ASU 2024-04 beginning January 1, 2026, however, it did not have a material impact on our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

There have been no other changes in accounting policies from those stated in our 2025 Annual Report. We do not expect any newly effective accounting standards to have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows when they become effective.

5. Revenue

We have an active monitoring and enforcement program with respect to our intellectual property rights that includes seeking appropriate compensation from third parties that utilize or have utilized our intellectual property without a license. As a result, we may receive payments as part of a settlement or in the form of court-awarded damages for a patent infringement dispute. We recognize such payments as revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 606, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers."

No revenue was recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025.

6. Loss per Common Share

Basic loss per common share is determined based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted loss per common share is the same as basic loss per common share as all common share equivalents are excluded from the calculation because their effect is anti-dilutive.

We have shares underlying outstanding options, restricted stock units ("RSUs"), warrants, and convertible notes that were excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share as their effect would have been anti-dilutive. These anti-dilutive common share equivalents at March 31, 2026 and 2025 were as follows (in thousands):

8. Related Party Note Payable

We have an unsecured promissory note of approximately $0.2 million payable to Sterne, Kessler, Goldstein, & Fox, PLLC ("SKGF"), a related party, for outstanding unpaid fees for legal services. The SKGF note, as amended from time to time, accrues interest at a rate of 4% per annum, requires monthly payments of principal and interest of $12,500 with a final balloon payment of approximately $0.02 million in April 2027.

Table of Contents

9. Convertible Notes

For the three months ended March 31, 2026, convertible notes with a face value of $0.1 million were converted, at the option of the holder, into approximately 0.8 million shares of our common stock and convertible notes with a face value of $0.05 million were repaid upon maturity. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, convertible notes with a face value of $0.2 million were converted, at the option of the holder, into approximately 1.3 million shares of our common stock.

Additionally, during the three months ended March 31, 2026, we entered into exchange agreements to exchange outstanding principal and accrued interest of approximately $0.7 million of convertible notes for unregistered shares of our common stock (see Note 13).

We recognized interest expense on our convertible debt of approximately $0.06 million and $0.07 million, respectively for each of the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025. During the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, we elected to pay approximately $0.05 million and $0.06 million, respectively, of interest in shares of our common stock and issued approximately 0.2 million shares and 0.1 million shares, respectively, of our common stock as interest-in-kind payments.

10. Contingent Payment Obligations

Secured Contingent Payment Obligation

The following table provides a reconciliation of our secured contingent payment obligation, measured at estimated fair value, for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and the year ended December 31, 2025 (in thousands):

Change in fair value

494 (1,074 )

Secured contingent payment obligation, end of period

$ 40,144 $ 39,650

Our secured contingent payment obligation consists of a secured, non-recourse note (the "Note") and a prepaid forward purchase contract (the "PPFPA") with Brickell Key Investments, LP ("Brickell"). The Note has a face value of $45.5 million ("Face Value"), accrues simple interest at a fixed rate, and matures on August 14, 2028. Payments under the Note will be made solely from proceeds from our patent assets, net of contingent fees payable to attorneys ("Distributions"). We are obligated to pay Brickell one hundred percent (100%) of the first $5.8 million in Distributions, and thereafter will pay Brickell a percentage of Distributions, which varies depending upon the origin of the Distributions, until the Face Value of the Note, and accrued interest thereon, has been repaid in full. If the amounts payable to Brickell from Distributions are insufficient to repay the face value and interest accrued on the Note by the maturity date, our remaining repayment obligations under the Note will be reduced to zero with future payment obligations, if any, being determined under the PPFPA. The Note is secured by our patent assets and related proceeds and contains standard and customary representations, warranties and covenants. The Note contains events of default including, but not limited to, (a) failure to pay principal or interest on the Note when due; (b) breach of representations or covenants, (c) impairment in the perfection or priority of Brickell's security interests in the collateral, and (d) bankruptcy or dissolution of the Company. In the event of a default, the outstanding principal and accrued interest on the Note will become immediately due and payable. The PPFPA extends beyond the maturity date of the Note and provides that Brickell is entitled to a specified percentage of monetary recoveries resulting from our patent-related actions to the extent not already paid to Brickell under the Note, or otherwise prior to the inception of the Note. The PPFPA also contains standard and customary representations, warranties and covenants. The Note and PPFPA are collectively referred to as our secured contingent payment obligation.

We have elected to measure our secured contingent payment obligation at its estimated fair value based on probability-weighted estimated cash outflows, discounted back to present value using a discount rate determined in accordance with accepted valuation methods (see Note 11). The secured contingent payment obligation is remeasured to fair value at each reporting period with changes recorded in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive loss until the contingency is resolved.

The underlying carrying value of the Note, which includes the Face Value plus accrued interest, was approximately $69.4 million and $67.4 million as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. The range of potential proceeds payable to Brickell is discussed more fully in Note 11.

$ 6,439 $ 5,935

Change in fair value

(97 ) 504

Unsecured contingent payment obligations, end of period

$ 6,342 $ 6,439

Our unsecured contingent payment obligations represent amounts payable to others from future patent-related proceeds including (i) a termination fee due to a litigation funder and (ii) contingent payment rights issued to accredited investors in connection with equity financings. We have elected to measure these unsecured contingent payment obligations at their estimated fair value based on probability-weighted estimated cash outflows, discounted back to present value using a discount rate determined in accordance with accepted valuation methods. The unsecured contingent payment obligations will be remeasured to fair value at each reporting period with changes recorded in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive loss until the contingency is resolved (see Note 11).

11. Fair Value Measurements

The fair values of cash and cash equivalents, prepaid and other current assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses, and other current liabilities approximate their carrying values because of the short-term nature of these instruments.

Our convertible notes are recorded at face value in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the estimated fair value of our convertible notes was approximately $2.0 million and $2.8 million, respectively and would be categorized within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

The fair values of our secured and unsecured contingent payment obligations were estimated using a probability-weighted income approach based on various cash flow scenarios as to the outcome of patent-related actions both in terms of timing and amount, discounted to present value using a risk-adjusted rate. We used risk-adjusted discount rates for the secured and unsecured contingent payment obligations of 17.81% and 17.79%, respectively, at March 31, 2026, based on risk-free rates of 3.81% and 3.79%, respectively, as adjusted by 8% for credit risk and 6% for litigation inherent risk. We used risk-adjusted discount rates for the secured and unsecured contingent payment obligations of 17.55% and 17.47%, respectively, at December 31, 2025, based on risk-free rates of 3.55% and 3.47%, respectively, as adjusted by 8% for credit risk and 6% for litigation inherent risk.

Changes in any of these Level 3 inputs could result in a significantly higher or lower fair value measurement.

12. Commitments and Contingencies

Legal Proceedings

From time to time, we are subject to legal proceedings and claims which arise in the ordinary course of our business. These proceedings include patent enforcement actions initiated by us against others for the infringement of our technologies, as well as proceedings brought by others against us at the Patent Trial and Appeal Board of the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office ("PTAB") in an attempt to invalidate certain of our patent claims. The majority of our litigation, including our PTAB proceedings, is being paid for through contingency fee arrangements with our litigation counsel as well as third-party litigation financing. In general, litigation counsel is entitled to recoup on a priority basis, from litigation proceeds, any out-of-pocket expenses incurred. Following reimbursement of out-of-pocket expenses, litigation counsel is generally entitled to a percentage of remaining proceeds based on the terms of the specific arrangement between us, counsel and our third-party litigation funder. In addition, we are currently in arbitration proceedings with a former litigation firm for disputed amounts due upon termination of that firm's engagement. We have been indemnified by our subsequent litigation firm for the costs of these proceedings.

We have a number of cases pending in the Western District of Texas. Judge Albright, the assigned district court judge in all of our cases in Texas, has announced his intent to step down from the bench at the end of summer 2026. As a result, the scheduled deadlines in each of our Texas cases may be impacted.

ParkerVision v. Qualcomm (Middle District of Florida-Orlando Division) - Appealed to U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit

ParkerVision v. Qualcomm currently has a second appeal underway at the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit ("CAFC") with respect to this case. In September 2024, the CAFC issued its opinion on the first appeal of pre-trial rulings in this case, ruling in our favor on all issues and remanding the case back to district court. Upon reopening the case, the district court granted on reconsideration, a Qualcomm motion for a third claim construction briefing with respect to two previously undisputed claim terms that were critical to the September 2024 appellate court decision. In May 2025, following briefings by both parties, the district court issued a claim construction order adopting Qualcomm's proposed constructions for the two claim terms. This decision, in essence, precluded us, once again, from asserting our receiver claims in the case. In June 2025, we filed a Rule 54(b) motion requesting that the court enter a final judgement of noninfringement on our receiver claims, based on the court's claim construction, and sever and stay the remaining transmit claims in the case to allow us to immediately appeal the most recent claim construction order and avoid the inefficiency of potentially two separate trials. The district court granted this motion in August 2025 and we immediately filed an appeal with the CAFC. The CAFC ordered an expedited schedule and oral arguments are scheduled for June 1, 2026.

ParkerVision v. MediaTek (Western District of Texas)

We filed three patent infringement actions in the Western District of Texas against MediaTek Inc. and MediaTek USA Inc. (collectively, "MediaTek"), alleging infringement of an aggregate of ten of our patents. A jury trial for the first MediaTek action was scheduled to commence on March 20, 2026. However, on March 16, 2026 at a pretrial conference, the court postponed the trial date pending requested updates to the expert reports and related briefings. Although a new trial date has not yet been determined, the parties have filed a proposed amended case schedule that includes submission of our amended expert reports by May 8, 2026, submission of MediaTek's responsive expert reports by June 5, 2026, close of expert discovery regarding the amended reports by June 19, 2026, and final deadline for all pre-trial motions of July 31, 2026.

The second MediaTek action has been stayed pending the PTAB's final written decisions on IPRs that could impact the patents in this second case. The IPR decisions are expected in May 2026. The third MediaTek action currently has a trial date scheduled for April 2027.

ParkerVision v. Realtek (Western District of Texas)

We filed two patent infringement actions in the Western District of Texas against Realtek Semiconductor Corp. ("Realtek"), alleging infringement of an aggregate of seven of our patents. One of the seven patents was dropped from the litigation in August 2024. The two Realtek cases were scheduled for trial in January 2026 and April 2026, respectively. In December 2025, the court combined the two cases into a single trial scheduled to commence April 27, 2026, and the parties agreed to narrow the combined case to an aggregate of three patents. In April 2026, as a result of the amended expert reports requested in ParkerVision v. MediaTek, the court postponed the April 27, 2026 trial date. Although a new trial date has not yet been determined, the parties have filed a proposed amended case schedule that includes submission of our amended expert reports by May 21, 2026, submission of MediaTek's responsive expert reports by June 11, 2026, close of expert discovery regarding the amended reports by June 19, 2026, and final deadline for all pre-trial motions of July 27, 2026.

ParkerVision v. Texas Instruments (Western District of Texas)

We filed a patent infringement action in the Western District of Texas against Texas Instruments ("TI") in 2023, alleging infringement of three of our patents. This case was stayed in 2025 pending the PTAB's final written decisions on IPRs for the three patents in this case (see Texas Instruments and NXP v. ParkerVision (PTAB) below).

ParkerVision v. NXP Semiconductors (Western District of Texas)

We filed a patent infringement action in the Western District of Texas against NXP Semiconductors ("NXP") in 2023, alleging infringement of three of our patents. This case was stayed in 2025 pending the PTAB's final written decision on IPRs for the three patents in this case (see Texas Instruments and NXP v. ParkerVision (PTAB) below).

Table of Contents

MediaTek v. ParkerVision (PTAB)

MediaTek filed a petition for IPR in May 2024 against one of the patents asserted in the second MediaTek infringement action. The PTAB instituted this IPR in November 2024 and the PTAB is expected to issue its decision in May 2026. In October 2024, MediaTek filed a third petition for IPR against one of the patents asserted in the third MediaTek action. The PTAB' instituted this IPR in March 2025 and on March 31, 2026, the PTAB issued its decision, ruling that the challenged claims in this petition were unpatentable. We have until June 1, 2026 to appeal the PTAB decision to the CAFC.

Texas Instruments and NXP v. ParkerVision (PTAB)

Texas Instruments filed three petitions for IPR in May 2024 against each of the patents asserted in the TI action. All three IPRs were instituted by the PTAB in November 2024 and in December 2024, the PTAB granted a motion by NXP to join two of the IPRS that for patents asserted against NXP. In November 2025, the PTAB issued its final written decision in one of the IPRs filed by TI, deeming our challenged patent claims to be unpatentable. We filed a request for review of this decision by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office director and that request was denied in March 2026. We have until May 24, 2026 to appeal this PTAB decision to the CAFC. The PTAB extended its deadlines with respect to the two joint TI/NXP IPRs until May 2026.

In addition to the actions discussed above, we have additional patent infringement actions against Qualcomm, Apple, Inc., LG, LG Electronics, and TCL that have been stayed pending the outcomes of other active cases. We also have an ongoing arbitration with the law firm of Goldberg Segalla, LLP over Goldberg claims for contingency fees, disbursements and other advances. There have been no material changes to these outstanding legal proceedings during the quarter ended March 31, 2026.

13. Stock Authorization and Issuance

Stock Issuances

Debt Exchange

On March 13, 2026, we entered into exchange agreements with certain holders of our outstanding convertible promissory notes that had a fixed conversion price of $0.25 per share and matured in March 2026. Pursuant to the agreements, the holders agreed to exchange the outstanding principal amount of the notes held by them, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon through the closing date of the exchange, for unregistered shares of our common stock at an exchange price of $0.21 per share. In connection with the exchange, we issued an aggregate of approximately 3.3 million shares of common stock to the holders in exchange for the cancellation of notes having an aggregate outstanding principal and unpaid interest of approximately $0.7 million (see Note 9). We recognized a loss of approximately $0.1 million as a result of the debt extinguishment.

Shelf Registration and Registered Direct Offerings

In May 2025, we filed a shelf registration statement ("Shelf") for the offering of various securities, up to $25.0 million. The Shelf, which was declared effective May 25, 2025, was intended to provide flexibility for our future capital needs and to fund working capital, capital expenditures, vendor purchases, and other capital needs. During the year ended December 31, 2025, we sold an aggregate of 21.2 million shares of common stock under the Shelf for gross proceeds of $4.5 million. Upon filing our 2025 Annual Report, we no longer satisfied the market capitalization eligibility requirements of the Shelf and therefore it can no longer be utilized for our future capital needs.

Table of Contents

Common Stock Warrants

During the three months ended March 31, 2026, 1.8 million warrants, with a weighted average exercise price of $1.67 per share, expired unexercised. As of March 31, 2026, we had remaining outstanding warrants for the purchase of up to 2.5 million shares of our common stock with a weighted average exercise price of $0.60 per share and a weighted average remaining life of approximately 3.1 years. These warrants have an estimated grant date fair value of $1.2 million which is included in additional paid-in capital in our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.

14. Share-Based Compensation

There has been no material change in the assumptions used to compute the fair value of our equity awards, nor in the method used to account for share-based compensation from those stated in our 2025 Annual Report.

On January 22, 2026, our compensation committee approved grants, under our 2019 Long-term Incentive Plan (the "2019 Plan"), of nonqualified performance-based stock options to the CEO, CFO, and a key employee for the purchase of an aggregate of 9.0 million shares. The options have a five-year performance period, with quarterly measurement dates, and expire ten years from the date of grant. Vested options are exercisable at a price of $0.24 per share, which was the last sale price of our common stock on the date of grant. The performance conditions for vesting of these options are based on cumulative net cash received by the company from its patent enforcement actions, after deduction of all attorney contingency fees and contractual repayments of contingent payment obligations to third parties. The aggregate grant-date fair value of the performance-based awards is approximately $2.2 million which is amortized to share-based compensation expense over the performance period based on the probability of the performance condition being met which is assessed at each interim reporting period. Upon forfeiture of performance-based options, any previously recognized share-based compensation expense is reversed.

The compensation committee also approved grants, under the 2019 Plan, of nonqualified time-based stock options to key employees, including our CFO, for the purchase of up to 1.8 million shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $0.24 per share. The time-based options vest in four equal biannual installments over a two-year period beginning July 22, 2026, and expire five years from the date of grant. In addition, each of our non-employee directors were awarded 370,000 nonqualified stock options with an exercise price of $0.24 per share for 2026 director compensation. The director awards vest in two bi-annual installments beginning July 22, 2026.

For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, we recognized share-based compensation expense of approximately $0.2 million and $0.1 million, respectively. Share-based compensation includes expense attributable to equity-based awards to employees, directors and third parties and is included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive loss. As of March 31, 2026, there was $1.6 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to all non-vested share-based compensation awards. The cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average remaining life of approximately 3.5 years.

15. Segment Information

Our operations constitute a single reportable segment, focused on licensing our innovative, fundamental wireless technologies, often through patent infringement actions. All revenues, operating expenses, and assets attributable to this segment are reflected in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, collectively, are considered to be the chief operating decision maker ("CODM"). The CODM uses consolidated net losses, along with consideration of certain significant cash and noncash expense categories, to assess performance by comparing to and monitoring against budget and prior year results. This information is used to manage resources and invest in key strategic priorities.

ITEM 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Forward-Looking Statements

We believe that it is important to communicate our future expectations to our shareholders and to the public. This Quarterly Report contains forward-looking statements, within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including, in particular, statements about our future plans, objectives, and expectations contained in this Item. When used in this Quarterly Report and in future filings by us with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), the words or phrases "expects", "will likely result", "will continue", "is anticipated", "estimated" or similar expressions are intended to identify "forward-looking statements." Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements, each of which speaks only as of the date made. Such statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from historical results and those presently anticipated or projected, including the risks and uncertainties identified in our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 (the "2025 Annual Report") and in this Item 2 of Part I of this Quarterly Report. Examples of such risks and uncertainties include general economic and business conditions, competition, unexpected changes in technologies and technological advances, reliance on our intellectual property, the outcome of our intellectual property litigation and the ability to obtain adequate financing in the future. We have no obligation to publicly release the results of any revisions which may be made to any forward-looking statements to reflect anticipated events or circumstances occurring after the date of such statements.

Corporate Website

We announce investor information, including news and commentary about our business, financial performance and related matters, SEC filings, notices of investor events, and our press and earnings releases, in the investor relations section of our website (http://parkervision.com/investors). Investors and others can receive notifications of new information posted in the investor relations section in real time by signing up for email alerts and/or RSS feeds. Further corporate governance information, including our governance guidelines, board of directors ("Board") committee charters, and code of conduct, is also available in the investor relations section of our website under the heading "Leadership and Governance." The content of our website is not incorporated by reference into this Quarterly Report or in any other report or document we file with the SEC, and any references to our website are intended to be inactive textual references only.

Overview

We have invented and developed proprietary radio frequency ("RF") technologies and integrated circuits based on those technologies, and we license those technologies to third parties for use in wireless communication products. We have expended significant financial and other resources to research and develop our RF technologies and to obtain patent protection for those technologies in the United States of America ("U.S.") and certain foreign jurisdictions. We believe certain patents protecting our proprietary technologies have been broadly infringed by others and therefore the primary focus of our business plan is the enforcement of our intellectual property rights through patent licensing and infringement litigation efforts. We currently have patent enforcement actions ongoing in various U.S. district courts against mobile handset, smart television, and other WiFi product providers, as well as semiconductor suppliers, for the infringement of several of our RF patents. We have made significant investments in developing and protecting our technologies, the returns on which are dependent upon the generation of future revenues for realization.

Recent Events

Legal Proceedings

On April 21, 2026, the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit ("CAFC") has scheduled oral arguments for June 1, 2026 in our expedited appeal of the district court decision in ParkerVision v. Qualcomm.


The patent infringement trials against MediaTek and Realtek, scheduled to commence in March 2026 and April 2026, respectively, were postponed by the district court pending updates to the expert reports and related briefings. The parties have submitted proposed amended scheduling orders to the court that include submission of our revised expert reports in May 2026, submission of the defendants' responsive expert reports in June 2026, and final deadlines for all pre-trial motions by the end of July 2026. The revised trial dates are yet to be determined, and the district court judge assigned to these cases has recently announced his intent to step down at the end of summer 2026. We do not yet know the impact of the district court judge's retirement on the case schedules for our cases pending in the Western District of Texas.

See Note 12 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for a complete update on our legal proceedings.

Debt Exchange

On March 13, 2026, we entered into exchange agreements with certain holders of our outstanding convertible promissory notes. Pursuant to the agreements, the holders agreed to exchange the outstanding principal amount of the notes held by them, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon through the closing date of the exchange, for shares of our common stock at an exchange price of $0.21 per share. In connection with the exchanges we issued an aggregate of 3,277,099 shares of common stock to the holders in exchange for the cancellation of notes having an aggregate outstanding principal amount of $675,000 and accrued and unpaid interest of approximately $13,200.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We used cash for operations of approximately $0.9 million and $1.8 for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The decrease in cash used for operations from 2025 to 2026 is primarily due to accrued bonuses paid in and increases in legal, accounting and other third-party professional fees for services during the three months ended March 31, 2025.

At March 31, 2026, we had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $3.4 million and an accumulated deficit of $457.2 million. Our working capital at March 31, 2026, was $1.7 million, a decrease of approximately $0.5 million from working capital at December 31, 2025. Our current liabilities at March 31, 2026 include $0.9 million in convertible debt that matures over the next twelve months if not extended by one year at the holder's option in accordance with the terms of the note. The timing and amount of proceeds, if any, from our patent enforcement actions are difficult to predict. Furthermore, a significant amount of future proceeds that we may receive from our patent enforcement and licensing programs will be utilized to repay borrowings and legal fees and expenses under our contingent funding arrangements. These circumstances raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue to operate as a going concern for a period of one year following the issue date of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

19
Table of Contents

Our convertible notes have conversion prices that are below the market price of our common stock as of March 31, 2026. We anticipate that all of our outstanding convertible notes will either (i) be converted by the holders prior to their scheduled maturity dates, or (ii) have their maturity dates automatically extended as provided under the terms of certain agreements; however, conversion and/or extension is at the option of the holders and there can be no assurance with respect to the holders' behavior. Even with the anticipated conversions or extensions of our convertible debt, our current capital resources are not sufficient to meet our liquidity needs for the next twelve months and we may be required to seek additional capital. Our ability to meet our liquidity needs for the next twelve months is dependent upon (i) our ability to successfully negotiate licensing agreements and/or settlements relating to the use of our technologies by others in excess of our contingent payment obligations, (ii) our ability to control operating costs, (iii) the behavior of our convertible note holders, and/or (iv) our ability to obtain additional debt or equity financing. We expect that proceeds received by us from patent enforcement actions and technology licenses over the next twelve months may not alone be sufficient to cover our working capital requirements.

We expect to continue to invest in the support of our patent licensing and enforcement program. The long-term continuation of our business plan is dependent upon the generation of sufficient cash flows from our technologies and/or products to offset expenses and debt obligations. In the event that we do not generate sufficient cash flows, we will be required to obtain additional funding through public or private debt or equity financing or contingent fee arrangements and/or reduce operating costs. Failure to generate sufficient cash flows, raise additional capital through debt or equity financings or contingent fee arrangements, and/or reduce operating costs will have a material adverse effect on our ability to meet our long-term liquidity needs and achieve our intended long-term business objectives.

Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2026 and 2025

Revenue and Cost of Sales

We reported no licensing revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025. Cost of sales for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 consists of amortization expense related to the patents covered under license agreements. Revenue resulting from our patent enforcement actions is highly unpredictable with respect to the amount and timing of receipt, and there can be no assurance that we will achieve our anticipated results.

Selling, General, and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general, and administrative expenses consist primarily of personnel and related costs, including share-based compensation, outside professional fees for business consulting, legal and accounting services, litigation fees and expenses, and costs incurred for insurance.

Our selling, general and administrative expenses decreased by $0.3 million, or 22.9%, during the three months ended March 31, 2026 when compared to the same period in 2025. This is primarily the result of a $0.3 million decrease in outside professional fees, including litigation related costs.

The decrease in outside professional fees for the three months ended March 31, 2026 is a result of decreased expenditures related to our social media and public awareness campaign, business and financial advisory services, and litigation costs related to our cert petition filed with the Supreme Court in 2025.

Change in Fair Value of Contingent Payment Obligations

We have elected to measure our secured and unsecured contingent payment obligations at fair value which is based on significant unobservable inputs. We estimated the fair value of our secured and unsecured contingent payment obligations using a probability-weighted income approach based on the estimated present value of projected future cash outflows using a risk-adjusted discount rate. Increases or decreases in the significant unobservable inputs could result in significant increases or decreases in fair value. Generally, changes in fair value are a result of changes in estimated amounts and timing of projected future cash flows due to increases in funded amounts, passage of time, and changes in the probabilities based on the status of the funded actions.

For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, we recorded aggregate increases in the fair value of our secured and unsecured contingent payment obligations of approximately $0.4 million and $2.5 million, respectively. The changes in fair value for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 were primarily the result of changes in the estimated amount and timing of projected future cash outflows due to changes in the status of our patent infringement cases, increases in accrued interest on our secured contingent payment obligation, and changes in the risk-free rates of return used in the calculation of present value.

Off-Balance Sheet Transactions, Arrangements and Other Relationships

As of March 31, 2026, we had remaining outstanding warrants for the purchase of up to 2.5 million shares of our common stock with a weighted average exercise price of $0.60 per share and a weighted average remaining life of approximately 3.1 years. These warrants have an estimated grant date fair value of $1.2 million which is included in additional paid-in capital in our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Critical Accounting Policies

There have been no changes in accounting policies from those stated in our 2025 Annual Report. We do not expect any newly effective accounting standards to have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows when they become effective.

ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

Not applicable.

ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of March 31, 2026, our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our "disclosure controls and procedures," as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). Based upon this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that these disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2026.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by Rule 13a-15(d) under the Exchange Act that occurred during the last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
