Quarterly Revenue of $17.2 Million up 8 Percent Year Over Year
$20 Million Facility With Opus Bank Enhances Liquidity and Refinances Debt
FREMONT, Calif., May 14, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Identiv (Nasdaq: INVE ) reports its financial results for the first quarter (Q1) of 2014.
"In Q1 2014, we continued cost reductions and focused on growth, seeing early success with increased revenue of 8 percent, compared to Q1 2013," said Jason Hart, chief executive officer of Identiv. "Our credentials products, used in our trust solutions for everyday items, grew 36 percent compared to Q1 2013, with strong demand from electronic gaming and other Internet of Things applications."
"We significantly enhanced liquidity with a $20 million term loan and line-of-credit agreement on favorable commercial terms with Opus Bank, allowing retirement of previous expensive debt, increased liquidity and reduced debt service in future quarters," Hart added.
Q1 Financial Summary
In reviewing the results for the first quarter of fiscal year 2014, compared to the first quarter of fiscal year 2013:
- Total revenues for continuing operations were $17.2 million, compared to $16.0 million, reflecting growth of 8% with significant contribution from sales of credentials products increasing 36% to meet demand for electronic game toys and other Internet of Things applications.
- GAAP gross profit margin was 39%, compared to 42%, primarily due to product mix.
- Base operating expenses, which include research and development, sales and marketing, and general and administrative costs, were $9.6 million, compared to $10.3 million.

- Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter was $(2.0) million, compared to $(2.1) million.
- GAAP net loss from continuing operations was $(5.6) million in Q1 2014, which included restructuring costs totaling $0.4 million, or $(0.07) per share, compared with GAAP loss from continuing operations of $(4.0) million, or $(0.07) per share in the comparable prior year period. There were no restructuring costs in Q1 2013.
