Company profile

Xerox Corporation is the principal operating subsidiary of Xerox Holdings Corporation (NASDAQ: XRX; NYSE-listed from 1961 until 2021). Headquartered in Norwalk, Connecticut, it was founded in 1906 in Rochester, New York as the Haloid Photographic Company and took the Xerox name in 1961. It is a public company — no controlling parent. FY2025 revenue was approximately $7.0 billion with a net loss of about $1.0 billion, and roughly 23,000 employees globally.

Operations. Xerox describes itself as a workplace technology company. Its reportable segments are Print and Other (office printers, multifunction devices, production printers and digital presses, wide-format systems, scanners, supplies, managed print services, and equipment financing) and IT Solutions (integrated IT infrastructure, managed services, cloud, security, and automation, built largely around the 2025 integration of ITsavvy). In July 2025 Xerox closed its acquisition of Lexmark International II, expanding its A4 color and Asia-Pacific print presence. Xerox is an operating company, not a patent-assertion entity.

Litigation posture. Xerox appears in the tracked data only as a defendant (1 case, 0 as plaintiff), consistent with an operating company being sued rather than a party asserting its own patents offensively. The single tracked matter is Flexiworld Technologies, Inc. v. Xerox Corp., filed June 29, 2023 in the Western District of New York (four related complaints, Nos. 6:23-cv-06370 through -06373) — notably Xerox's home venue, not the Eastern District of Texas.

Case context. Flexiworld, an Oregon-based wireless-printing licensor that Unified Patents classifies as an NPE (small company, with third-party financing from Equitable IP Corporation), asserted patents covering driverless/wireless network printing and mobile print apps against Xerox's AirPrint- and ConnectKey-enabled devices and print apps. Flexiworld has filed similar suits against Lexmark, HP, Brother, Epson, and Sony. The Xerox actions were resolved by a bilateral stipulation dismissing all claims and counterclaims with prejudice; no merits ruling was issued.
