Financial results and liquidity
| Metric | Q2 2017 | Q2 2016 | Six months 2017 | Six months 2016 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Revenue | $14.84 | $13.48 | $28.23 | $25.96 |
| Gross profit | $5.68 | $5.27 | $11.38 | $10.56 |
| Gross margin | 38% | 39% | 40% | 41% |
| Operating loss | $(1.23) | $(2.63) | $(2.17) | $(10.95) |
| Net loss attributable to Identiv | $(1.90) | $(2.96) | $(2.59) | $(11.89) |
| Basic and diluted loss per share | $(0.15) | $(0.27) | $(0.22) | $(1.10) |
- Six-month operating cash outflow was $2.69 million, versus $6.22 million in 2016; capital expenditures were $0.26 million. Financing provided $11.71 million, primarily reflecting a $12.55 million net stock offering, new debt proceeds, and debt repayments.
- Cash at June 30 was $17.97 million, up from $9.12 million at year-end 2016. Working capital was $19.1 million, versus $9.1 million at December 31, 2016. Cash includes $0.9 million held at foreign subsidiaries.
- Financial liabilities before discounts and issuance costs totaled $17.87 million: a $10 million term loan and $7.87 million drawn on a $10 million revolving facility. The separate Hirsch-related payment obligation had a $4.38 million present value, including $0.84 million current. The company reported compliance with debt covenants at quarter-end.
- The revolving facility requires at least $4 million of cash liquidity. The term loan carries 12.5% interest during its first 12 months; the revolver bears interest at prime plus 2%. Both facilities are secured by substantially all company assets.
Material changes versus prior comparable periods
- Q2 revenue grew 10%; six-month revenue grew 9%. For the first half, Identity revenue rose 32% to $7.15 million, Credentials rose 6% to $9.89 million, and PACS rose 5% to $11.19 million. Growth was partly offset by the phaseout of legacy All Other products.
- Gross margin declined by about one percentage point in both comparison periods. Management attributed pressure to product mix, including more lower-margin physical access and transponder sales; Identity margins also reflected a lower-margin international government order.
- Six-month operating expenses fell 37% to $13.55 million. The comparison benefited from no restructuring charge in 2017 versus $2.94 million in the first half of 2016, and from lower general and administrative, selling, and R&D expenses.
- Net loss improved substantially year over year, although the first-half 2017 result included a $0.98 million gain on extinguishment of debt. Q2 net interest expense increased 31% year over year to $0.68 million, primarily due to higher costs on the new debt facility.
- In May 2017, Identiv sold 2.85 million shares at $4.85 per share, receiving approximately $12.6 million net. The offering increased outstanding shares and diluted existing shareholders.
Outlook, risks, contingencies, and unusual items
- The filing gives no specific revenue or earnings guidance. Management says demand typically strengthens in the second half, with PACS sales to U.S. government agencies often highest in Q3. Results can vary with project timing, government budgets, continuing resolutions, and shutdowns.
- Management expects existing cash, operating cash generation, and available credit to fund working capital and operations for the next 12 months, while cautioning that future losses may continue and additional financing may not be available on acceptable terms. The company reported an accumulated deficit of $394.1 million.
- Purchase commitments totaled $11.49 million, largely due in 2017 and dependent on customer-demand forecasts; changes to orders may result in supplier cancellation charges. Total contractual commitments were reported as $15.13 million in the commitments table, excluding the separate debt and payment obligations discussed elsewhere.
- Identiv disclosed shareholder litigation, including an appeal of the dismissal with prejudice of a securities class action and pending derivative litigation. It said the possible loss could not be reasonably estimated and that an adverse resolution could materially affect its business or financial condition.
- On August 7, 2017, the insurer agreed to reimburse $0.4 million of certain legal fees; the company expected to recognize this as a third-quarter operating expense credit.
- Management stated that a previously identified material weakness in financial reporting controls had been remediated by June 30, 2017, and that disclosure controls and internal control over financial reporting were effective. The conclusion on internal controls had not been reviewed by the independent auditor.
Important facts for investors to verify
- Confirm the issuer’s identity: the supplied filing is for Identiv, Inc., not the company named in the request metadata.
- Track quarterly revenue, gross margin, segment mix, and the timing of government and international customer projects.
- Monitor operating cash use, cash available under the borrowing base, the $4 million liquidity covenant, and debt service under the new facilities.
- Assess whether the reported control remediation is sustained and review the status and potential cost of the pending litigation.
- Consider dilution from the May stock offering and outstanding options, restricted stock units, and warrants.
