PART III — NARRATIVE

State below in reasonable detail why Forms 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q, 10-D, N-SAR, N-CSR, or the transition report or portion thereof, could not be filed within the prescribed time period.

Immersion Corporation (the “Company”) is unable to file its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2025 (the “Form 10-K”) within the prescribed time period, without unreasonable effort or expense. In July 2025, certain information regarding the recording of cost of sales was brought to the attention of the management of Barnes & Noble Education, Inc. (“Barnes & Noble Education” or “BNED”), which is a subsidiary of the Company. BNED’s management promptly informed the Audit Committee of the BNED Board of Directors (the “BNED Audit Committee”), which caused the BNED Audit Committee to commence an internal investigation with the assistance of outside counsel and advisors.

The investigation at BNED is ongoing and all parties are working diligently to complete the investigation. However, based on initial findings, which could change as the investigation is in its early stages, BNED’s management believes that it may have a potential overstatement of up to $23.0 million in the aggregate to BNED’s accounts receivable balance as of the Company’s fiscal year ended April 30, 2025, which BNED believes is the cumulative net impact of overstatements and understatements to its cost of sales during the fiscal years 2024 and 2025, impacting results of operations in those periods. Based on the BNED Audit Committee’s investigation to date, the Company believes that these potential impacts may have resulted from the actions of a payment processing employee, who has been suspended pending the results of the BNED Audit Committee’s investigation. BNED has not reached a conclusion whether any restatement of previously issued financial statements will be required as a result of the investigation. In addition, certain other financial reporting process matters require resolution in addition to any impact from the conclusion of the ongoing investigation. As such, management is unable to complete the Company’s financial reporting process and preparation of its financial statements for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2025.

Barnes & Noble Education’s management is also assessing the effect of this matter on its internal control over financial reporting and its disclosure controls and procedures. BNED expects to report at least one material weakness related to the appropriate review and approval of manual journal entries following the completion of the ongoing investigation. As a result of the expected material weakness(es), BNED believes that its internal control over financial reporting was not effective, and its disclosure controls and procedures were not effective for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2025.

The Company does not expect the investigation to impact total revenues, which on a preliminary basis were approximately $1.6 billion (unaudited) compared to $33.9 million for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, an increase of $1.5 billion. The investigation will not impact the Company’s cash and cash equivalents and total debt for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2025. The foregoing financial information for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2025, is preliminary, unaudited, and subject to change.

The Company currently expects to file the Form 10-K within the 15-day extension period prescribed by Rule 12b-25 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, however the ability to file within the extension period will depend on the progress of and ultimate conclusion of the investigation.

On June 10, 2024, the Company acquired a controlling interest in Barnes & Noble Education. Barnes & Noble Education is one of the largest contract operators of physical and virtual bookstores for college and university campuses and K-12 institutions across the United States. BNED is also one of the largest textbook wholesalers and inventory management hardware and software providers. The financial results of Barnes & Noble Education have been included in our consolidated financial statements from the acquisition date of June 10, 2024 to April 30, 2025.

The following financial information for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2025, is preliminary, unaudited, and subject to change. The Company’s revenues are expected to be approximately $1.6 billion for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2025, compared to revenues of $33.9 million for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023. The changes in the Company’s revenues for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2025, compared to the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, primarily reflect the Company’s inclusion of Barnes & Noble Education’s financial results for the period from June 10, 2024 to April 30, 2025.
