Immersion Corporation stock (ISIN US4525211078) was trading at USD 7.175 on Nasdaq on October 6, 2026 at 2:17 p.m. ET, down 1.31 percent on the session and 10.87 percent below its 52-week high of USD 8.05. The latest company report showed a return to GAAP profitability in fiscal first quarter 2027.

Fiscal Q1 returns to profit

According to Business Wire on September 14, 2026, Immersion generated USD 294.4 million in revenue for the three months ended July 31, 2026, up USD 2.4 million from USD 292.0 million a year earlier. GAAP net income attributable to stockholders reached USD 4.9 million, or USD 0.17 per diluted share, compared with a USD 0.9 million loss and a USD 0.03 loss per share in the prior-year quarter.

Non-GAAP net income was USD 16.6 million, or USD 0.50 per diluted share, versus USD 16.9 million and USD 0.52 per share a year earlier. The company said financial performance can be lumpy, making the modest revenue increase less important than the earnings reversal and expense trend.

Dividend keeps a firm date

Business Wire also reported on September 14, 2026, that Immersion declared a quarterly dividend of USD 0.075 per share payable on October 30, 2026 to shareholders of record on October 16, 2026. The payment will mark the company's sixteenth consecutive quarterly dividend.

For investors, the dividend provides a measurable capital-return element while the operating picture remains mixed. Immersion's consolidated revenue includes its controlling interest in Barnes & Noble Education, while its haptics business generated USD 3.8 million in royalty and license revenue in the reported quarter, according to the quarterly filing summarized by StockTitan on September 14, 2026.

Consensus target stays above price

MarketBeat reported that one analyst rates the stock Buy and two rate it Hold, producing a Hold consensus and a USD 13.50 average price target. That target lies 88.15 percent above the USD 7.175 Nasdaq price used in the October 6, 2026 comparison.

The contrast is clear: the quarterly figures improved at the GAAP net-income level, but revenue growth was limited and the stock remained below its yearly high. The next reported earnings date is December 11, 2026.
