- Third Quarter Revenue of $15.6 Million, Up 15% Sequentially
- GAAP net loss of $(0.7)M and adjusted EBITDA of $1.7M
FREMONT, Calif., Nov. 09, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Identiv, Inc. (NASDAQ:INVE) today announced financial results for its fiscal 2016 third quarter ended September 30, 2016. For the third quarter, total revenues were $15.6 million, GAAP gross profit margin was 44%, GAAP net loss was $(0.7) million, and adjusted EBITDA was $1.7 million.
“This quarter demonstrated the results of our hard work over recent quarters, returning Identiv to positive adjusted EBITDA for the first time since 2014, and doing so decisively. $1.7M adjusted EBITDA represents 11% of revenues, demonstrating the potential for profitability our business can deliver at this scale while also investing and growing. This is our third consecutive quarter hitting our targets, increasing operating results while also reducing expenses, and we’ve held cash stable since the end of Q1. Compared to last year’s Q3, we have reduced GAAP OpEx from $14.1M quarterly to $7.1M, and non-GAAP OpEx from $12.5M quarterly a year ago to $5.5M in the most recent quarter. Most importantly, our seasonally strongest quarter remained so, showing sequential and comparative revenue growth of over 20% in our physical access business and over 15% in our smart card reader business. As a result, we believe we remain on track to reach our targets, and confirm our previously communicated guidance for 2016,” said Steven Humphreys, Identiv CEO. ”These financial metrics are a reflection of the strength of our business and the industry, the proven ability of our team to execute, and the credibility of our business model. In fact, with our market growing about 10%, we’re outpacing it and gaining share. Achieving this while also managing a major business re-focus is a testament to these strengths. As we regain our core business strength, we’re returning to focusing on and communicating our vision for our expanding business opportunity, which remains unchanged: We’re providing what we believe are the most cost-effective, high-performance and convenient solutions to our Hirsch Velocity customers in the U.S. government on their path to FICAM compliance, our smart card reader customers and our partners. As we continue investment to further develop our ICPAM solution, we are seeing increasing traction through our partnership with Cisco and its channel partners. Additionally, OEM partners are leveraging our proven technology smart card reader modules and chipsets to enable secure authentication on their devices. Our unifying theme is providing secure, convenient, cost effective access to all physical resources, known as the Internet of Things (IoT). We believe with our demonstrated business execution and the pivotal role commercial markets will play in wide adoption of IoT, we’re positioned to lead this aspect of the IoT revolution.”
Financial Highlights Review
- Revenues for the third quarter of 2016 were $15.6 million compared to $13.5 million in the second quarter of 2016 and $17.2 million in the third quarter of fiscal year 2015, reflecting a sequential increase of 15% and a decline of 10% from the third quarter of 2015. The sequential increase was driven by higher revenues in the Physical Access Control Systems (PACS) Segment, which grew by 31%, and the Identity Segment, which grew 21%. This is reflective of stronger demand for the Company's physical access readers and door controllers used with its Hirsch Velocity and ICPAM access platforms as well as logical access solutions, including delivery of desktop readers used in a national e-Health project in Europe and delivery of reader chipsets to OEM partners. Both areas benefited from higher demand from U.S. Government customers due to the Government’s fiscal year end in September, as well as secular market growth and market share gains. Revenue in the Credentials Segment reflects growth in Transponder sales, offset by lower revenue with access cards. The comparative decrease was mainly driven by lower Credentials revenues, reflecting last year’s sales of RFID inlays for an electronic gaming application in the comparable quarter, partially offset by year over year PACS revenue growth of 21% and Identity revenue growth of 13%.
- GAAP gross profit margin was 44% in the third quarter of fiscal year 2016, compared to 39% in the second quarter of fiscal year 2016 and 44% in the third quarter of 2015. Sequential margin expansion reflects margin increases in all three major segments as well as product mix, with a higher proportion of revenue in PACS and Identity.
- GAAP operating expenses, including research and development (R&D), sales and marketing (S&M), general and administrative (G&A), and restructuring and severance charges were $7.1 million, compared to $7.9 million in the second quarter of fiscal year 2016 and $14.1 million in the third quarter of 2015, reflecting a sequential decrease of 10% and a year over year decrease of 50%. The sequential reduction was primarily driven by a decrease in G&A expenses by 29% due to lower legal and accounting professional fees associated with non-core business activities. The comparative change reflects the implementation of the Company’s restructuring plan in the first quarter of fiscal year 2016.
- Non-GAAP operating expenses for the quarter were $5.5 million, compared to $6.8 million in the second quarter of fiscal year 2016 and $12.5 million in the third quarter of 2015, reflecting a sequential reduction of 19% and a year over year reduction of 56%. Non-GAAP operating expenses are in line with the Company’s previously announced target of less than $6 million quarterly of business-related operating expenses.
- GAAP net loss was $(0.7) million, or $(0.07) per share in the third quarter of 2016, compared to $(3.0) million, or $(0.27) per share in the second quarter of 2016 and GAAP net loss of $(7.2) million, or $(0.66) per share in the third quarter of 2015. The third quarter of 2016 included restructuring and severance related costs of $0.2 million, while the second quarter of 2016 included restructuring and severance related costs of $0.2 million, and the third quarter of 2015 included restructuring and severance related costs of $0.2 million.
- Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA was $1.7 million in the third quarter of 2016, compared to $(1.2) million in the second quarter of fiscal year 2016 and $(4.5) million in the third quarter of 2015. The improvement predominantly reflects a reduction in operating expenses following the business refocus in the first quarter of 2016 and reduced non-core professional fees. Sequentially, the improvement also reflects revenue growth and gross margin expansion.
- Cash was $9.2 million at September 30, 2016, compared with $9.4 million at June 30, 2016.
“Our discipline, focus and realignment of our resource base has led us to reach positive adjusted EBITDA and a steep decline in net loss. We’ve got lots of work to do, but we believe we’re solidly positioned for continued growth and market share gains in our core business,” continued Mr. Humphreys. “While we expect to see the typical seasonality, we believe we have the base for these positive trends to continue into the next year. 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 as one of the highest-value aspects of the Internet of Things. 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.”
