The quick ratio of ADEIA CORP has shown both fluctuations and consistency over the past few quarters. The quick ratio measures the company's ability to meet its short-term obligations using its most liquid assets. A quick ratio above 1 indicates that the company has enough liquid assets to cover its current liabilities.

Looking at the trend, the quick ratio has generally been strong, above 2.00 for most quarters, indicating a healthy liquidity position. In particular, there was a notable peak in the quick ratio in the second and third quarters of 2021, reaching values of 2.70 and 2.73, respectively.

However, there were some declines in the quick ratio in the fourth quarter of 2022 and the first quarter of 2023, where the quick ratio fell to 1.50 and 1.97, respectively. This may suggest a temporary decrease in liquidity during those periods.

Overall, despite fluctuations, the quick ratio of ADEIA CORP has remained generally above 2.00, indicating a strong ability to meet short-term obligations with its liquid assets. Further analysis of the company's liquidity position and cash flow trends would provide more insights into its financial health.
