Identiv Reports Second Quarter 2026 Financial Results

Rhea-AI Summary

Identiv (NASDAQ: INVE) reported fiscal Q2 2026 net revenue of $5.7 million, up from $5.0 million a year earlier, driven by higher RFID transponder sales. GAAP gross margin improved to 16.1% from (9.4)%, while non-GAAP gross margin rose to 24.5% from (0.8)%, mainly due to lower manufacturing costs after shifting production from Singapore to Thailand and reduced inventory obsolescence charges.

GAAP operating expenses increased to $6.4 million, primarily from strategic review costs, but non-GAAP operating expenses declined to $4.0 million. GAAP net loss narrowed to $(4.7) million, or $(0.20) per share, and non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA loss improved to $(2.7) million. The company signed an IoT asset purchase agreement with Trackonomy on June 24, 2026, expected to close in Q3, and plans to focus its go-forward strategy on physical AI solutions via compliance SaaS acquisitions.

According to Identiv, the board currently intends to return up to $40 million to stockholders via repurchases, dividends, or other distributions, and the company expects to resume share buybacks before the asset sale closes. Q3 2026 net revenue is guided to $4.1–$4.8 million, reflecting demand softness, a temporary pause in orders from a large consumer-facing customer, and chip allocation delays.

Signed IoT Asset Purchase Agreement with Trackonomy on June 24, 2026; Transaction Expected to Close in Q3 FY 2026, Subject to Closing Conditions

Go-Forward Business Strategy Focused on Providing Physical AI Solutions Through Targeted Acquisitions of Compliance SaaS Companies

Company Intends to Resume Repurchases of its Common Stock Shortly, and Prior to the Closing of the Asset Sale Transaction

SANTA ANA, Calif., Aug. 12, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Identiv, Inc. (NASDAQ: INVE), a global leader in RFID- and Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE)-enabled Internet of Things (IoT) solutions, today released its financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2026.

Financial Results for Fiscal Second Quarter 2026
Revenue for the second quarter of 2026 was $5.7 million, compared to $5.0 million in the second quarter of 2025. This year-over-year increase was as expected and due to increased sales of RFID transponder products.

Second quarter 2026 GAAP gross margin was 16.1% and non-GAAP gross margin was 24.5%, compared to second quarter 2025 GAAP gross margin of (9.4%) and non-GAAP gross margin of (0.8%). The year-over-year improvement was primarily driven by continued production cost savings and efficiencies driven by the elimination of Singapore manufacturing costs, improved cost utilization at the Thailand facility, and a reduction in inventory obsolescence charges.

GAAP operating expenses, including research and development, selling and marketing, general and administrative, and restructuring and severance, were $6.4 million in the second quarter of 2026, compared to $5.9 million in the second quarter of 2025. The increase in GAAP operating expenses was driven primarily by an increase in strategic review-related costs. Non-GAAP operating expenses were $4.0 million in the second quarter of 2026, compared to $4.5 million in the second quarter of 2025. The decrease in non-GAAP operating expenses reflects management's disciplined spending allocation across its operating expenses.

Second quarter 2026 GAAP net loss was ($4.7) million, or ($0.20) per basic and diluted share, compared to GAAP net loss of ($6.0) million, or ($0.26) per basic and diluted share, in the second quarter of 2025. This improvement was primarily due to higher sales in Q2 2026, increased gross margin due to the transition of manufacturing to Thailand, and the impact of charges to cost of revenue related to the write-down of obsolete inventory in the second quarter of 2025.

Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA loss in the second quarter of 2026 was ($2.7) million, compared to ($4.6) million in the second quarter of 2025. This improvement was primarily due to the reduction in fixed manufacturing costs at the now-closed Singapore facility, improved utilization at the Thailand facility, and management's disciplined allocation of operating expenses to support the Company's Perform-Accelerate-Transform (P-A-T) strategic initiatives.

Management Commentary
In the second quarter, Identiv achieved a significant milestone under the Transform pillar of its P-A-T strategy by entering into a definitive agreement to sell its IoT operating assets to Trackonomy Systems, Inc. Product development activities continued with Identiv's strategic programs, while the Thailand manufacturing facility prepared for the expansion of its BLE product portfolio. In July, Identiv launched its expanded ID-Tiny product family, a portfolio of ultra-miniaturized HF/NFC inlays and tags designed to bring secure digital intelligence to compact products.

In parallel, broader macroeconomic conditions continued to affect demand in certain consumer-facing applications. In particular, one of Identiv's larger consumer-facing customers built up significant inventory positions over the last three quarters and is pausing new order activity in the coming months to align its inventories with current demand. The customer expects to resume order activity late this year. Furthermore, Identiv is seeing some chip allocation delays for certain products, which is delaying production and shipment of some orders.

Update Regarding Stock Repurchase Program
Identiv's Board of Directors currently intends to return up to $40 million of capital to stockholders through share repurchases, dividends, and/or other distributions. Identiv intends to resume common stock repurchases under its stock repurchase program shortly, and prior to the closing of the asset sale transaction with Trackonomy.

Financial Outlook
Identiv provides guidance based on current market conditions and expectations, including macroeconomic conditions and customer demand. For the third quarter of fiscal 2026, management currently expects net revenue to be in the range of $4.1 million to $4.8 million, without taking into account the closing of the asset sale transaction.

Conference Call
In view of Identiv's previously announced asset sale to Trackonomy, the Company will not hold a conference call to discuss its second quarter 2026 financial results.

Additional information can be found in the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, which is expected to be filed on August 13, 2026.
