$145 Million Transaction Receives Final
Remaining Regulatory Approval
Transaction Expected to Close Within 30
Days
Identiv, Inc. (NASDAQ: INVE), a global digital
security and identification leader in the Internet of Things (IoT),
today announced that the Committee on Foreign Investment in the
United States ("CFIUS") has approved the Company’s transaction to
sell its physical security, access card, and identity reader
operations and assets (the “Physical Security Business”) to
Vitaprotech, a security solutions provider.
Identiv submitted notice of the proposed transaction to the U.S.
government on May 9, 2024. Pursuant to Section 721 of the Defense
Production Act of 1950, as amended, CFIUS reviewed the transaction.
On August 15, 2024, Identiv received notification of approval from
the Department of Treasury, on behalf of the Committee on Foreign
Investment in the United States. CFIUS determined that there were
no unresolved national security concerns; therefore, action under
Section 721 with respect to the transaction was concluded.
Having met all regulatory requirements and received shareholder
approval of the transaction, all regulatory and statutory
conditions for closing have been satisfied. Both parties are now
proceeding to close the transaction promptly. Based on the
anticipated time needed to complete the actions required to close,
Identiv and Vitaprotech expect to close the transaction within 30
days following CFIUS approval.
Upon closing of the transaction, Identiv will receive a cash
payment of $145 million, subject to customary adjustments. The
proceeds from the sale will significantly strengthen Identiv’s
financial position, providing capital to pursue growth
opportunities for its specialty IoT solutions business.
