Key Financial Metrics:
| Metric | Q2 2024 | Q2 2023 | YoY Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| Total Revenue | $6.7 million | $11.5 million | -41.7% |
| GAAP Gross Margin | 9.1% | 14.2% | -5.1pp |
| Non-GAAP Gross Margin | 14.6% | 16.6% | -2.0pp |

| GAAP Net Loss | ($6.9) million | ($3.5) million | +97.1% |
| GAAP EPS | ($0.31) | ($0.16) | +93.8% |
| Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA | ($3.7) million | ($2.6) million | +42.3% |
Interpretation: Identiv saw significant declines in revenue and gross margins year-over-year, reflecting challenges in scaling the IoT Business. Increased operating expenses, driven by strategic transaction-related costs, contributed to a greater net loss. Despite tighter cost controls, overall performance lagged behind the previous year's metrics.
Revenue Performance by Segment:
| Segment | Q2 2024 Revenue ($M) | Q2 2023 Revenue ($M) | YoY Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| IoT Business | $6.7 | $11.5 | -41.7% |
| Physical Security Business | Not Reported | Not Reported | N/A |
Interpretation: Revenue from the continuing IoT Business declined substantially year-over-year. Identiv did not report specific revenue for the Physical Security Business for Q2 2024 due to the pending sale, making direct comparisons challenging.
Management Commentary: Identiv’s CEO, Steven Humphreys, highlighted the successful milestones toward concluding the asset sale, emphasizing the focused shift to IoT solutions. President, IoT Solutions, Kirsten Newquist, reiterated confidence in their strategy and future opportunities.
Dividends or Share Repurchase Program: No information provided regarding dividends or share repurchase programs.
Forward Guidance: For Q3 2024, Identiv expects revenue from continuing operations to range between $5.8 million to $6.1 million. If the asset sale has not closed by the end of Q3 2024, total expected revenue including discontinued operations will be between $24 million and $26 million.
Stock Price Movement: Post-earnings release, Identiv’s stock price saw a slight decline of -0.28%.
In summary, Identiv’s Q2 2024 financial performance reflected significant challenges, mainly due to the transition towards focusing on its IoT Business. While operational metrics saw declines, the management remains optimistic about the strategic focus and future growth initiatives.
