Exhibit 99.1
INVE Technologies, Inc. Reports Third Quarter 2026 Financial Results
Focused on Providing Physical AI Solutions Through Targeted Acquisitions of Enterprise SaaS Companies
Signed Strategic Partnership Agreement with Trackonomy
Santa Ana, Calif. — November 12, 2026 — INVE Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: INVE) today released its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2026.
Financial Results for Fiscal Third Quarter 2026
Revenue for the third quarter of 2026 was $3.1 million, compared to $5.0 million in the third quarter of 2025. The year-over-year decrease was due to lower unit sales of RFID transponder products and the IoT business divestiture to Trackonomy during Q3. Net revenue for the third quarter of 2026 reflects only activity through September 15, 2026, the closing date of the asset sale transaction, and therefore is not comparable to the full prior-year period.
Third quarter 2026 GAAP gross margin was 18.3% and non-GAAP gross margin was 31.6%, compared to third quarter 2025 GAAP gross margin of 10.7% and non-GAAP gross margin of 19.1%. The year-over-year improvement was primarily driven by continued cost savings and efficiencies resulting from the transition of production to the Thailand facility, higher utilization at the Thailand facility, and the non-recurrence of prior-year inventory obsolescence charges.
GAAP operating expenses, including research and development, selling and marketing, general and administrative, and restructuring and severance, were $8.8 million in the third quarter of 2026, compared to $6.1 million in the third quarter of 2025. The year-over-year increase in GAAP operating expenses was primarily driven by an increase in costs associated with the asset sale transaction. Non-GAAP operating expenses were $4.0 million in the third quarter of 2026, compared to $4.5 million in the third quarter of 2025. The year-over-year decrease in non-GAAP operating expenses reflects management’s disciplined cost control.
Third quarter 2026 GAAP net income was $0.6 million, or $0.02 per basic and diluted share, compared to GAAP net loss of $3.5 million, or $0.15 per basic and diluted share, in the third quarter of 2025. The year-over-year increase was primarily driven by a gain recognized on the asset sale and a net gain recognized on the dissolution of a foreign subsidiary, partially offset by higher strategic transaction-related costs and higher stock-based compensation related to the acceleration of unvested RSUs associated with the closing of the asset sale.
Third quarter 2026 non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA loss was $3.0 million, compared to a non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA loss of $3.6 million in the third quarter of 2025. The year-over-year improvement was primarily driven by disciplined management of operating expenses in support of the Company’s strategic initiatives.
Financial Outlook
Following the sale of its IoT Business to Trackonomy on September 15, 2026, the Company currently has no
commercial revenue. Consequently, the Company is not providing financial guidance.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release includes financial information that has not been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP), including non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross margin and non-GAAP operating expenses. INVE Technologies uses non-GAAP financial measures internally in analyzing its financial results and believes they are useful to investors, as a supplement to GAAP measures, in evaluating operational performance. INVE Technologies believes that the use of these non-GAAP financial measures provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating operating results and trends. Non-GAAP gross profit and margin exclude stock-based compensation and amortization and depreciation. Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA excludes items that are included in GAAP net income (loss), GAAP operating expenses, and GAAP gross margin, and excludes income tax provision (benefit), interest income, net, foreign currency gains (losses), net, stock-based compensation, amortization and depreciation, gain on asset sale, net gain on dissolution of foreign subsidiary, restructuring and severance, and strategic review-related costs. Non-GAAP operating expenses exclude stock-based compensation, amortization and depreciation, strategic review-related costs, and restructuring and severance. The exclusions are detailed in the reconciliation table included in this press release. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures as detailed in this press release.

Forward-looking statements are only predictions and are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, many of which are outside INVE Technologies’ control, which could cause actual results to differ materially and adversely from those expressed in any forward-looking statements.
