IDENTIV REPORTS FOURTH QUARTER AND FISCAL YEAR 2016 RESULTS

Fourth Quarter Revenue of $14.6 Million, Up 12% Year-over-Year,

GAAP net loss of $(1.1)M and adjusted EBITDA of $1.1M;

FY 2016 Revenue of $56.2 Million within Annual Guidance Range

FREMONT, Calif., March 8, 2017 — Identiv, Inc. (NASDAQ: INVE) today announced financial results for the fiscal year and fourth quarter (Q4) ended December 31, 2016. For the fiscal year, total revenues were $56.2 million, GAAP gross profit margin was 42%, GAAP net loss was $(13.7) million, and adjusted EBITDA was $(2.1) million. For the fourth quarter, total revenues were $14.6 million, GAAP gross profit margin was 43%, GAAP net loss was $(1.1) million, and adjusted EBITDA was $1.1 million.

“Throughout 2016, we have executed to plan while driving towards our target operating model. This is underscored by the positive adjusted EBITDA in the third and fourth quarter of the year, with a total positive adjusted EBITDA of over $2.8 million in the second half of the year, compared with negative adjusted EBITDA of over $(10.0) million in the second half of 2015. More importantly, we’ve refocused the Company and re-established growth in the core business with year-over-year revenue growth of 12% in the fourth quarter. With the recently announced debt refinancing also completed, we are going into 2017 with our full focus on business execution,” said Steven Humphreys, Identiv CEO. “We have started the year by hitting several milestones key to 2017. These include U.S. government APL approval for our Hirsch Velocity FICAM solution, which we believe is the most cost-effective, highest-performance solution for federal agencies to achieve government-mandated FICAM compliance. We also launched version 3.0 of our ICPAM solution through our partnership with Cisco. This game-changing release integrates our enterprise-class Hirsch Mx Controllers into the ICPAM platform, bringing capabilities never before available to Cisco-provided physical access solutions. Additionally, we believe the January launch of our uTrust TS Cards delivers the most cost-effective, easy-to-adopt solution that scales from widely used proximity credentials to the highest security access protocols. Customers get the best of all worlds: low-cost, basic access identities and zero incremental cost as they move to higher security credentials.”

Fiscal Year 2016 Financial Highlights

“While we expect to see the typical seasonality, we believe we have gained momentum for the positive trends in physical access and smart card readers to continue into 2017, and also to benefit from our pipeline in transponder projects, as well as our partnerships with Cisco and others, to achieve solid double digit revenue growth in 2017,” added Mr. Humphreys. “In delivering near-term products and business results, we’re building the platform and components for our vision of a pervasive, increasingly convenient and responsive access control experience. Wireless infrastructure, IP-enabled components throughout the platform, mobile-enabled systems management, video and sensor integration, and learning platforms, will enable ever-greater security while delivering convenience, end-user benefits, and ease-of-access.”

Guidance The Company is providing annual guidance for fiscal year 2017 of revenue between $64 million and $68 million and positive adjusted EBITDA between $4 million and $7 million.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures (Unaudited)

This press release includes financial information that has not been prepared in accordance with GAAP, including non-GAAP operating expenses and adjusted EBITDA. Identiv uses these 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 our ongoing operational performance. We believe that the use of these non-GAAP financial measures provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends. The non-GAAP operating expenses and adjusted EBITDA discussed above will exclude items that are included in GAAP net income (loss) and GAAP operating expenses, and excludes provision (benefit) for income taxes, net income (loss) attributable to non-controlling interest, interest expense, foreign currency gains (losses), stock-based compensation, amortization and depreciation, impairment of goodwill, and restructuring and severance. The exclusions are detailed in the reconciliation table included in this earnings releases. 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. Identiv has not provided a reconciliation of its full-year 2017 adjusted EBITDA outlook to an expected net income (loss) outlook because certain items that are a component of net income (loss) cannot be reasonably projected. In particular, sufficient information is not available to calculate certain adjustments required for such reconciliations, including interest expense, income tax expense (benefit), share-based compensation, and foreign currency (gains) losses. These components of net income (loss) could significantly impact Identiv’s actual net income (loss).
