Identiv Reports Fourth Quarter and Fiscal Year 2025 Financial

Results, Exceeds Q4 Guidance and Signs Multi-Year Supply Agreement

Fourth Quarter Net Revenue Exceeds Guidance Driven by Growth with Key Customers and Operational Excellence

Significant Advancement in Bluetooth Low Energy Strategy Results in Exclusive Multi-Year Supply Agreement

Santa Ana, Calif. — March 12, 2026 — Identiv, Inc. (NASDAQ: INVE), a global leader in RFID- and BLE-enabled Internet of Things (IoT) solutions, today released its financial results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended December 31, 2025.

“During the fourth quarter, we delivered results that exceeded our guidance and expectations, reflecting the higher-than-expected sales from key customers and the successful completion of our two-year manufacturing transition to Thailand, which has structurally reduced our cost profile and significantly increased efficiency,” said Identiv CEO Kirsten Newquist.

“We have made considerable progress across our Perform-Accelerate-Transform (P-A-T) strategy and most recently achieved a significant win. We signed an exclusive multi-year agreement to serve as the exclusive supplier for specialized, next-generation BLE smart labels,” added Newquist. “As we move into 2026, we are focused on scaling production for high-volume specialized BLE smart labels, expanding our customer base, and launching new products to capture opportunities in the rapidly growing global IoT market.”

Financial Results for Fiscal Fourth Quarter 2025

Revenue for the fourth quarter of 2025 was $6.2 million, compared to $6.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2024. This year-over-year decrease was as expected and due to the exit of lower-margin business which we did not transfer to Thailand.

Fourth quarter 2025 GAAP gross margin was 18.1% and non-GAAP gross margin was 25.6%, compared to fourth quarter 2024 GAAP gross margin of (14.9%) and non-GAAP gross margin of (5.2%). The year-over-year improvement primarily reflects the reduction in direct labor and manufacturing overhead costs associated with the transition of all production to Thailand in 2025.

GAAP operating expenses, including research and development, selling and marketing, general and administrative, and restructuring and severance, were $5.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2025, compared to $5.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2024. Non-GAAP operating expenses were $4.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2025, compared to $4.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2024. The management of non-GAAP operating expenses reflects the disciplined operating expense spending to support of the company’s organic growth initiatives as outlined in the P-A-T strategic framework.

Fourth quarter 2025 GAAP net loss from continuing operations was ($3.7) million, or ($0.16) per basic and diluted share, compared to GAAP net loss from continuing operations of ($4.3) million, or ($0.19) per basic and diluted share, in the fourth quarter of 2024. This reduction was primarily due to our production transition to our Thailand facility, combined with our disciplined spending of operating expenses as we executed on our P-A-T strategic initiatives.

Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA loss in the fourth quarter of 2025 was ($2.5) million, compared to ($4.5) million in the fourth quarter of 2024.

Financial Results for Fiscal Year 2025

Revenue for fiscal year 2025 was $21.5 million compared to $26.6 million in fiscal year 2024. Fiscal year 2025 GAAP gross margin was 6.1% and non-GAAP gross margin was 14.3%, compared to fiscal year 2024 GAAP gross margin of 1.3% and non-GAAP gross margin of 8.0%. The year-over-year expansion in gross margin reflects the lower cost structure and operational efficiencies gained from moving our production to Thailand and shutting down our Singapore site.

GAAP operating expenses, including research and development, selling and marketing, general and administrative, and restructuring and severance, were $23.5 million in fiscal year 2025, compared to $28.3 million in fiscal year 2024. Non-GAAP operating expenses were $17.6 million in fiscal year 2025, compared to $17.9 million in fiscal year 2024. Fiscal year 2024 GAAP operating expenses included higher strategic review-related costs of $5.3 million compared to 2025.

Fiscal year 2025 GAAP net loss from continuing operations was ($18.0) million, or ($0.79) per basic and diluted share, compared to GAAP net loss from continuing operations of ($25.9) million, or ($1.14) per basic and diluted share, in fiscal year 2024.

Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA loss in fiscal year 2025 was ($14.5) million, compared to ($15.8) million in fiscal year 2024.

Financial Outlook

Identiv provides guidance based on current market conditions and expectations, including macroeconomic conditions and customer demand. For the first quarter of fiscal 2026, management currently expects net revenue to be in the range of $6.7 million to $7.2 million.

Non-GAAPFinancial 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. Identiv 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 ongoing operational performance. Identiv believes that the use of these non-GAAP financial measures provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing 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, 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.
