Organization Consolidation And Presentation Of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies	1. Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
	The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Identiv, Inc. (“Identiv” or the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, including normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been included. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2015 or any future period. The information included in this document should be read in conjunction with “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” “Risk Factors,” “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk,” and the Consolidated Financial Statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014. The preparation of unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements necessarily requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the condensed consolidated balance sheet dates and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses for the periods presented. The Company may experience significant variations in demand for its products quarter to quarter and typically experiences a stronger demand cycle in the second half of its fiscal year. As a result, the quarterly results may not be indicative of the full year results. The December 31, 2014 balance sheet was derived from the audited financial statements as of that date.
	Concentration of Credit Risk — One customer represented 21% of total revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2015. No customer represented more than 10% of total revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2014.   Two customers represented more than 10% of the Company’s accounts receivable balance at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively, with each customer representing approximately 12% and 11% of the Company’s accounts receivable balance at March 31, 2015 and 12% of the Company’s accounts receivable balance at December 31, 2014, respectively.
	Discontinued Operations — Financial information related to certain divested businesses of the Company is reported as discontinued operations for all periods presented as discussed in Note 2, Discontinued Operations. Reclassifications of prior period amounts related to discontinued operations have been made to conform to the current period presentation.
	Recent Accounting Pronouncements
	In April 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2015-05, “Customer’s Accounting for Fees Paid in a Cloud Computing Arrangement” (ASU 2015-05”), which clarifies the circumstances under which a cloud computing customer would account for the arrangement as a license of internal-use software. ASU 2015-05 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2015-05 to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements or disclosures.
	In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, “Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs” (“ASU 2015-03”), which changes the presentation of debt issuance costs on the balance sheet by requiring entities to present such costs as a direct deduction from the related debt liability rather than as an asset. ASU 2015-03 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2015-03 to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements or disclosures.
	In January 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-01, “Simplifying Income Statement Presentation by Eliminating the Concept of Extraordinary Items” (“ASU 2015-01”). Under ASU 2015-01, an entity will no longer be allowed to separately disclose extraordinary items, net of tax, in the income statement after income from continuing operations if an event or transaction is unusual in nature and occurs infrequently. ASU 2015-01 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015 with early adoption permitted. Upon adoption, the Company may elect prospective or retrospective application. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2015-01 to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements or disclosures.
	In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, “Disclosure of Uncertainties About an Entity's Ability to Continue as a Going Concern”, (“ASU 2014-15”), which requires management to perform interim and annual assessments on whether there are conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about the entity's ability to continue as a going concern within one year of the date the financial statements are issued and to provide related disclosures, if required.  The amendments in ASU 2014-15 are effective for the annual period ending after December 15, 2016, and for annual and interim periods thereafter.  Early adoption is permitted. We are currently in the process of evaluating the impact of the adoption on our condensed consolidated financial statements.
	In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers" (“ASU 2014-09”), which supersedes nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance under U.S. GAAP. The core principle of ASU 2014-09 is to recognize revenues when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 defines a five step process to achieve this core principle and, in doing so, more judgment and estimates may be required within the revenue recognition process than are required under existing U.S. GAAP. It is effective for annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2016, and interim periods therein, using either of the following transition methods: (i) a full retrospective approach reflecting the application of the standard in each prior reporting period with the option to elect certain practical expedients, or (ii) a retrospective approach with the cumulative effect of initially adopting ASU 2014-09 recognized at the date of adoption (which includes additional footnote disclosures). Early adoption is not permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of our pending adoption of ASU 2014-09 on our condensed consolidated financial statements and have not yet determined the method by which we will adopt the standard in 2017.

Discontinued Operations And Disposal Groups [Abstract]
Discontinued Operations	2. Discontinued Operations
	During the fourth quarter of 2013, the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) committed to a plan designed to simplify the Company’s business structure and to focus on high-growth technology trends within the security market. During the fourth quarter of 2013, the Company committed to sell its Rockwest Technology Group, Inc. d/b/a/ Multicard US (“Multicard US”) subsidiary to George Levy, Matt McDaniel and Hugo Garcia (the “Buyers”), the founders and former owners of the Multicard US business. The sale of the Multicard US subsidiary was completed on February 4, 2014 and was made pursuant to a Share Purchase Agreement dated January 21, 2014 between the Company and the Buyers whereby the Company agreed to sell 80.1% of the shares of its holdings in Multicard US, to the Buyers for cash consideration of $1.2 million. Based on the carrying value of the assets and the liabilities attributed to Multicard US on the date of sale, and the estimated costs and expenses incurred in connection with the sale, the Company recorded a gain of $0.5 million, net of income taxes of nil, in the condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2014, which is included in income from discontinued operations, net of income taxes.
	In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 205-20, Discontinued Operations (“ASC 205”) issued by the FASB, the results of Multicard US have been presented as discontinued operations in the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2014.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]
Fair Value Measurements	3. Fair Value Measurements
	The Company determines the fair values of its financial instruments based on a fair value hierarchy, which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The classification of a financial asset or liability within the hierarchy is based upon the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Under ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement and Disclosures (“ASC 820”), the fair value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs into three levels that may be used to measure fair value:
	—	Level 1 – Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets and liabilities in active markets;
	—	Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities that are observable either directly or indirectly; and
	—	Level 3 – Unobservable inputs.
	Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
	As of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, there were no assets that are measured and recognized at fair value on a recurring basis. There were no cash equivalents as of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014.
	The Company’s only liability measured at fair value on a recurring basis is the contingent consideration related to the acquisition of idOnDemand, Inc. (“idOnDemand”). The sellers of idOnDemand (the “Selling Shareholders”) are eligible to receive limited earn-out payments (“Earn-out Consideration”) in the form of shares of common stock subject to certain lock-up periods under the terms of the Stock Purchase Agreement entered into on April 29, 2011 between the Company and the Selling Shareholders of idOnDemand (the “SPA”). The fair value of the Earn-out Consideration is based on achieving certain revenue and profit targets as defined under the SPA. The calculation of the Earn-out Consideration fair value for periods prior to the year ended December 31, 2014 was probability weighted and discounted to reflect the restriction on the resale or transfer of such shares. The valuation of the Earn-out Consideration is classified as a Level 3 measurement as it is based on significant unobservable inputs and involves management judgment and assumptions about achieving revenue and profit targets and discount rates. The unobservable inputs used in the measurement of the Earn-out Consideration are highly sensitive to fluctuations and any changes in the inputs or the probability weighting thereof could significantly change the measured value of the Earn-out Consideration at each reporting period. The fair value of the Earn-out Consideration is classified as a liability and is re-measured each reporting period in accordance with ASC Topic 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (“ASC 480”).
	As of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the maximum possible amount payable for the Earn-out Consideration was $5.0 million. For the period ended December 31, 2014, the Company engaged a third party independent valuation firm to assist in the determination of the determination of the Earn-out Consideration liability. The Company recorded an earn-out obligation of $3.51 million as of December 31, 2014. The Earn-out Consideration liability remains $3.51 million as of March 31, 2015.
	Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Non-recurring Basis
	Certain of the Company's assets, including intangible assets, goodwill, and privately-held investments, are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis if impairment is indicated. Purchased intangible assets are measured at fair value primarily using discounted cash flow projections. For additional discussion of measurement criteria used in evaluating potential impairment involving goodwill and intangible assets, refer to Note 6, Goodwill and Intangible Assets.
	Privately-held investments, which are normally carried at cost, are measured at fair value due to events and circumstances that the Company identified as significantly impacting the fair value of investments. The Company estimates the fair value of its privately-held investments using an analysis of the financial condition and near-term prospects of the investee, including recent financing activities and the investee's capital structure.
	As of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Company had $0.3 million of privately-held investments measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis and was classified as a Level 3 asset due to the absence of quoted market prices and inherent lack of liquidity. The Company reviews its investments to identify and evaluate investments that have an indication of possible impairment. The Company adjusts the carrying value for its privately-held investments for any impairment if the fair value is less than the carrying value of the respective assets on an other-than-temporary basis. During the three months ended March 31, 2015, the Company determined that no privately-held investments were impaired. The amount of privately-held investments is included in other assets in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.
	As of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, there were no liabilities that are measured and recognized at fair value on a non-recurring basis.
	Assets and Liabilities Not Measured at Fair Value
	The carrying amounts of the Company's accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other current assets, accounts payable, financial liabilities and other accrued liabilities approximate fair value due to their short maturities.

	Common Stock Warrants
	In connection with the Company’s entry into a consulting agreement in August 2014, the Company issued a consultant a warrant to purchase up to 85,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at a per share exercise price of $10.70 (the “Consultant Warrant”). One fourth of the shares under the warrant are exercisable for cash three months from the date the Consultant Warrant was entered into and quarterly thereafter. The Consultant Warrant will expire 5 years after the date of issuance, which is August 13, 2019. In the event of an acquisition of the Company, the Consultant Warrant shall terminate and no longer be exercisable as of the closing of the acquisition. As of March 31, 2015, none of the Consultant Warrants have been exercised.
	In connection with the Company’s entry into a credit agreement with Opus Bank (“Opus”) as discussed in Note 9, Financial Liabilities, the Company issued Opus a warrant to purchase up to 100,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at a per share exercise price of $9.90 (the “Opus Warrant”). The Opus Warrant is immediately exercisable for cash or by net exercise and will expire 5 years after the date of issuance, which is March 31, 2019. The shares issuable upon exercise of the Opus Warrant are to be registered at the request of Opus pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, entered into on March 31, 2014 by the Company and Opus. As of March 31, 2015, none of the Opus Warrants have been exercised.
	On August 14, 2013, in a private placement, the Company issued 834,847 shares of its common stock at a price of $8.50 per share and warrants to purchase an additional 834,847 shares of its common stock at an exercise price of $10.00 per share (the “2013 Private Placement Warrants”) to accredited and other qualified investors (the “Investors”). The 2013 Private Placement Warrants have a term of four years and are exercisable beginning six months following the date of issuance. Any 2013 Private Placement Warrants, or portion thereof, not exercised prior to the expiration date will become void and of no value and such warrants shall be terminated and no longer outstanding. The number of shares issuable upon exercise of the 2013 Private Placement Warrants is subject to adjustment for any stock dividends, stock splits or distributions by the Company, or upon any merger or consolidation or sale of assets of the Company, tender or exchange offer for the Company’s common stock, or a reclassification of the Company’s common stock.
	The Company issued warrants to purchase 409,763 shares of its common stock at an exercise price of $26.50 per share in a private placement to accredited and other qualified investors in November 2010 (the “2010 Private Placement Warrants”). The 2010 Private Placement Warrants are exercisable beginning on the date of issuance and ending on the fifth anniversary of the date of issuance.
	Below is the summary of outstanding warrants issued by the Company as of March 31, 2015:
	Warrant Type		Warrants Outstanding			Weighted Average Exercise Price			Issue Date		Expiration Date

	2011 Employee Stock Purchase Plan
	In June 2011, Identiv’s stockholders approved the 2011 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “ESPP”). On December 18, 2013, the Compensation Committee of the Board suspended the ESPP effective January 1, 2014.  No additional shares will be authorized and no shares will be issued under the ESPP until further notice. As of March 31, 2015, there are 293,888 shares reserved for future grants under the ESPP. Since the ESPP was suspended effective January 1, 2014, there was no stock-based compensation expense resulting from the ESPP included in the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014.
	Stock-Based Compensation Plans
	The Company has various stock-based compensation plans to attract, motivate, retain and reward employees, directors and consultants by providing its Board or a committee of the Board the discretion to award equity incentives to these persons. The Company’s stock-based compensation plans consist of the Director Option Plan, 1997 Stock Option Plan, 2000 Stock Option Plan, 2007 Stock Option Plan (the “2007 Plan”), the 2010 Bonus and Incentive Plan (the “2010 Plan”) and the 2011 Incentive Compensation Plan (the “2011 Plan”), as amended.

	On June 6, 2011, Identiv’s stockholders approved the 2011 Plan, which is administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board. The 2011 Plan provides that stock options, stock units, restricted shares, and stock appreciation rights may be granted to executive officers, including the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”), Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), and other key employees (the “Participants”) of the Company and its subsidiaries, members of the Company’s Board, consultants, and other persons who provide services to the Company or any related entity as designated from time to time by the Compensation Committee of the Board. The 2011 Plan serves as a successor plan to the Company’s 2007 Plan.

As of March 31, 2015, there was $7.2 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested RSUs granted, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 3.15 years. As of March 31, 2015, an aggregate of 744,421 RSUs were outstanding under the 2011 Plan.
	Stock-Based Compensation Expense

	Goodwill
	The following table presents goodwill by operating segment as of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 and changes in the carrying amount of goodwill (in thousands):
			Premises				Credentials			Identity			All Other			Total

	Balance at March 31, 2015		$	7,783			$	—		$	964		$	—		$	8,747
	Of the total goodwill, a certain amount is designated in a currency other than U. S. dollars and is adjusted each reporting period for the change in foreign exchange rates between balance sheet dates.
	In accordance with its accounting policy and ASC 350, the Company tests goodwill and intangibles with indefinite lives annually for impairment and assesses whether there are any indicators of impairment on an interim basis. The Company performs interim goodwill impairment reviews between its annual reviews if certain events and circumstances have occurred, including a deterioration in general economic conditions, an increased competitive environment, a change in management, key personnel, strategy or customers, negative or declining cash flows, or a decline in actual or planned revenue or earnings compared with actual and projected results of relevant prior periods. The Company believes the methodology that it uses to review impairment of goodwill, which includes a significant amount of judgment and estimates, provides it with a reasonable basis to determine whether impairment has occurred. However, many of the factors employed in determining whether its goodwill is impaired are outside of its control and it is reasonably likely that assumptions and estimates will change in future periods. These changes in assumptions and estimates could result in future impairments.
	Management did not identify any impairment indicators during the quarter ended March 31, 2015. The Company performed its annual impairment test for all reporting units during the fourth quarter of 2014 and concluded that there was no impairment to goodwill during the year ended December 31, 2014.

	Intangible Assets, net at March 31, 2015		$	2,574			$	5,793		$	—		$	8,367
	Of the total intangible assets, certain acquired intangible assets are designated in a currency other than U.S. dollars and are adjusted each reporting period for the change in foreign exchange rates between balance sheet dates. Each period, the Company evaluates the estimated remaining useful lives of purchased intangible assets and whether events or changes in circumstances warrant a revision to the remaining period of amortization. If a revision to the remaining period of amortization is warranted, amortization is prospectively adjusted over the remaining useful life of the intangible asset. Intangible assets subject to amortization are amortized over their useful lives as shown in the table above. The Company evaluates its amortizable intangible assets for impairment at the end of each reporting period. The Company did not identify any impairment indicators during the three month period ended March 31, 2014.
	The following table illustrates the amortization expense included in the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively (in thousands):

	Hirsch Acquisition – Secure Keyboards and Secure Networks. Prior to the 2009 acquisition of Hirsch Electronics Corporation (“Hirsch”) by the Company, effective November 1994, Hirsch had entered into a settlement agreement (the “1994 Settlement Agreement”) with two limited partnerships, Secure Keyboards, Ltd. (“Secure Keyboards”) and Secure Networks, Ltd. (“Secure Networks”). At the time, Secure Keyboards and Secure Networks were related to Hirsch through certain common shareholders and limited partners, including Hirsch’s then President Lawrence Midland, who resigned as President of the Company effective July 31, 2014. Immediately following the acquisition, Mr. Midland owned 30% of Secure Keyboards and 9% of Secure Networks. Secure Networks was dissolved in 2012 and Mr. Midland owned 24.5% of Secure Keyboards upon his resignation effective July 31, 2014.
	On April 8, 2009, Secure Keyboards, Secure Networks and Hirsch amended and restated the 1994 Settlement Agreement to replace the royalty-based payment arrangement under the 1994 Settlement Agreement with a new, definitive installment payment schedule with contractual payments to be made in future periods through 2020 (the “2009 Settlement Agreement”). The Company was not an original party to the 2009 Settlement Agreement as the acquisition of Hirsch occurred subsequent to the 2009 Settlement Agreement being entered into. The Company has, however, provided Secure Keyboards and Secure Networks with a limited guarantee of Hirsch’s payment obligations under the 2009 Settlement Agreement (the “Guarantee”). The 2009 Settlement Agreement and the Guarantee became effective upon the acquisition of Hirsch on April 30, 2009. The Company’s annual payment to Secure Keyboards and Secure Networks in any given year under the 2009 Settlement Agreement is subject to an increase based on the percentage increase in the Consumer Price Index during the previous calendar year.
	The final payment to Secure Networks was made on January 30, 2012 and the final payment to Secure Keyboards is due on January 30, 2021. The Company’s payment obligations under the 2009 Settlement Agreement will continue through the calendar year period ending December 31, 2020, unless the Company elects at any time on or after January 1, 2012 to earlier satisfy its obligations by making a lump-sum payment to Secure Keyboards. The Company does not intend to make a lump-sum payment and therefore a portion of the payment obligation amount is classified as a long-term liability.
	The Company included $0.1 million of interest expense during the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 in its condensed consolidated statements of operations for interest accreted on the long-term payment obligation.

	Bank Term Loan and Revolving Loan Facility
	On March 31, 2014, the Company entered into a credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with Opus. The Credit Agreement provides for a term loan in aggregate principal amount of $10.0 million (“Term Loan”) which was drawn down on March 31, 2014, and an additional $10.0 million revolving loan facility (“Revolving Loan Facility”), of which $4.0 million was drawn down on March 31, 2014 and an additional $2.0 million was drawn down during the three months ended June 30, 2014. On August 8, 2014, the Company repaid $1.7 million on the Revolving Loan Facility. In connection with the closing of the Credit Agreement, the Company repaid all outstanding amounts under its Loan and Security Agreement, dated as of October 30, 2012, as amended from time to time (the “Secured Debt Facility”) with Hercules. During the three months ended March 31, 2014, the Company recorded $1.6 million in additional interest expense in its condensed consolidated statement of operations related to the repayment of the Secured Debt Facility. The total amount of $1.6 million in interest expense included $0.9 million related to a write-off of deferred costs, $0.6 million related to a write-off of discounts on the secured note and $0.1 million related to prepayment fees as stipulated in the Loan Agreement and the forfeiture of a facility charge paid at the inception of the Loan. The proceeds of the Term Loan and the initial proceeds under the Revolving Loan Facility, after payment of fees and expenses and all outstanding amounts under the Secured Debt Facility, were approximately $7.8 million. The obligations of the Company under the Credit Agreement are secured by substantially all assets of the Company. Certain of the Company’s material domestic subsidiaries have guaranteed the credit facilities and have granted Opus security interests in substantially all of their respective assets. The Company may voluntarily prepay the Term Loan and outstanding amounts under the Revolving Loan Facility, without prepayment charges, and is required to make prepayments of the Term Loan in certain circumstances using the proceeds of asset sales or insurance or condemnation events. On November 10, 2014, the Company entered into an amendment to its Credit Agreement which changed a number of the original terms of the Credit Agreement including interest charged, the monthly installment payment schedule, the maximum amount available under the revolving loan facility and the maturity date as well as certain other terms and conditions. Details of the amendment to the Credit Agreement are discussed below.
	In connection with the Company’s entry into the Credit Agreement, the Company paid $170,000 in customary lender fees and expenses, including facility fees. As discussed in Note 4, Stockholders’ Equity of Identiv, the Company issued the Opus Warrant  to purchase up to 100,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at a per share exercise price of $9.90. The Opus Warrant is immediately exercisable for cash or by net exercise and will expire on March 31, 2019. The shares issuable upon exercise of the Opus Warrant are to be registered at the request of Opus pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, entered into on March 31, 2014 by the Company and Opus. The Registration Rights Agreement provides for standard S-3 and piggyback registration rights. The Company calculated the fair value of the Opus Warrant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model using the following assumptions: estimated volatility of 92.09%, risk-free interest rate of 1.73%, no dividend yield, and an expected life of five years. The fair value of the Opus Warrant was determined to be $0.8 million. The Opus Warrant is classified as equity in accordance with ASC 505 as the settlement of the warrants will be in shares and is within the control of the Company. The Company allocated both the cash and warrant (equity) consideration to Opus between Term Loan and Revolving Loan Facility using the relative value of these loans. The Company recognized $0.9 million in issuance costs, both cash and equity, related to the Term Loan and Revolving Loan Facility. The cost consideration of $0.5 million allocated for the Term Loan is recorded as a discount on the Term Loan and is reported in the balance sheet as an adjustment to the carrying amount of the Term Loan. The remaining $0.4 million in issuance costs has been allocated to the Revolving Loan Facility as a deferred charge, pursuant to ASC Topic 835-30, Imputation of Interest (“ASC 835-30”). The issuance costs and discounts on the Term Loan are amortized as interest expense in accordance with ASC 835-30 over the term of the Credit Agreement.
	On November 10, 2014, the Company entered into an amendment to its Credit Agreement dated March 31, 2014, with Opus (the “Amended Credit Agreement”). Under the Amended Credit Agreement, the revolving loan facility was increased from $10.0 million to $30.0 million and the revolving loan maturity date was extended to November 10, 2017. In addition, the Company will no longer be required to make scheduled monthly installment payments of principal under the Term Loan. Rather, the entire principal balance of the Term Loan will be due on March 31, 2017. Under the terms of the Amended Credit Agreement, both the principal amount of the Term Loan and the principal amount outstanding under the Revolving Loan Facility bear interest at a floating rate equal to: (a) if the Company holds more than $30.0 million in cash with Opus, the greater of (i) the prime rate plus 1.50% and (ii) 4.75%; (b) if the Company holds $30.0 million or less but more than $20.0 million in cash with Opus, the greater of (i) the prime rate plus 2.25% and (ii) 5.50%; or (c) if the Company holds $20.0 million or less in cash with Opus, the greater of (i) the prime rate plus 2.75% and (ii) 6.00%. Interest on both facilities continues to be payable monthly. Additionally, the Amended Credit Agreement (i) modifies certain loan covenants applicable to the Company’s stock repurchase plan (see above), (ii) removes from the loan collateral shares of the Company’s capital stock repurchased by the Company and (iii) extends the current tangible net worth covenant by one year. The Company paid .333% of the revolving loan facility as a lender fee in the aggregate amount of $100,000 upon the closing of the Amended Credit Agreement. In addition, the Company paid $75,000 in third party fees related to the debt modification. Under the relevant debt restructuring accounting guidance found in ASC 470, the amendment to the Credit Agreement on November 10, 2014 has been treated as a debt modification. The Opus and third party fees have been allocated to the Revolving Loan Facility as a deferred charge and to the discount on the Term Loan pursuant to ASC Topic 470-50-40 and are being amortized as interest expense over the remaining term of the Amended Credit Agreement. The Company may voluntarily prepay the Term Loan and outstanding amounts under the Revolving Loan Facility, without prepayment charges, and is required to make prepayments of the Term Loan in certain circumstances using the proceeds of asset sales or insurance or condemnation events.
	The Amended Credit Agreement contains customary representations and warranties and customary affirmative and negative covenants, including, limits or restrictions on the Company’s ability to incur liens, incur indebtedness, make certain restricted payments, merge or consolidate and dispose of assets. The Amended Credit Agreement also provides for customary financial covenants, including a minimum tangible net worth covenant, a maximum senior leverage ratio and a minimum asset coverage ratio. As of March 31, 2015, the Company was in compliance with all financial covenants. In addition, it contains customary events of default that entitle Opus to cause any or all of the Company’s indebtedness under the Amended Credit Agreement to become immediately due and payable. Events of default (some of which are subject to applicable grace or cure periods), include, among other things, non-payment defaults, covenant defaults, cross-defaults to other material indebtedness, bankruptcy and insolvency defaults and material judgment defaults. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an event of default, Opus may terminate its lending commitments and/or declare all or any part of the unpaid principal of all loans, all interest accrued and unpaid thereon and all other amounts payable under the Amended Credit Agreement to be immediately due and payable. The Company has considered the components of the material adverse change clause of the Amended Credit Agreement and determined the likelihood of default under the existing terms is remote. Accordingly, all amounts outstanding under the Amended Credit Agreement are classified as long-term in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet.
	The following table summarizes the timing of repayment obligations for the Company’s financial liabilities for the next five years under the current terms of the Credit Agreement as of March 31, 2015 (in thousands):

Income Taxes	9. Income Taxes
	The Company conducts business globally and, as a result, files federal, state and foreign tax returns. The Company strives to resolve open matters with each tax authority at the examination level and could reach agreement with a tax authority at any time. While the Company has accrued for amounts it believes are the probable outcomes, the final outcome with a tax authority may result in a tax liability that is more or less than that reflected in the condensed consolidated financial statements. Furthermore, the Company may later decide to challenge any assessments, if made, and may exercise its right to appeal.
	The Company has no present intention of remitting undistributed retained earnings of any of its foreign subsidiaries. Accordingly, the Company has not established a deferred tax liability with respect to undistributed earnings of its foreign subsidiaries.
	The Company applies the provisions of, and accounted for uncertain tax positions in accordance with ASC 740. ASC 740 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements. It prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. ASC 740 also provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition.
	The Company generally is no longer subject to tax examinations for years prior to 2010. However, if loss carryforwards of tax years prior to 2010 are utilized in the U.S., these tax years may become subject to investigation by the tax authorities. While timing of the resolution and/or finalization of tax audits is uncertain, the Company does not believe that its unrecognized tax benefits would materially change in the next 12 months.

Segment Reporting [Abstract]
Segment Reporting and Geographic Information
	10. Segment Reporting and Geographic Information
	ASC Topic 280, Segment Reporting (“ASC 280”) establishes standards for the reporting by public business enterprises of information about operating segments, products and services, geographic areas, and major customers. The method for determining what information to report is based on the way management organizes the operating segments within the Company for making operating decisions and assessing financial performance. An operating segment is defined as a component of an enterprise that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenue and incur expenses and about which separate financial information is available to its chief operating decision makers (“CODM”). The Company’s CODM are considered to be its CEO and CFO.
	Identiv’s trust solutions allow people to trust their premises, information systems, and even everyday items. To deliver these solutions, the Company reorganized its operations into four reportable business segments in the first quarter of 2014 principally by product families: Premises, Identity, Credentials and All Other. As a result of the change, product families and services were organized within the four segments. To provide improved visibility and comparability, the Company reclassified segment operating results for 2013 to conform to the 2014 organizational realignments. In the Premises segment, Identiv’s Trust for Premises solution secures buildings via an integrated access control system. Identiv’s uTrust premises product offerings include MX controllers, Velocity management software, TS door readers, and third party products. In the Identity segment, Identiv delivers a solution to secure enterprise information including PCs, networks, email encryption, login, and printers via delivery of smart card reader products and identity management via our idOnDemand service. In the Credentials segment, the Company offers standards-driven hardware products using near field communication (“NFC”), radio frequency identification (“RFID”) and smart card technologies, including inlays, tags, readers and other products.

Restructuring and Severance	11. Restructuring and Severance
	During the third and fourth quarters of 2013, there was a change of the Company’s CEO and CFO, and as part of management’s efforts to simplify business operations, certain non-core functions were eliminated.
	During the first quarter of 2014, certain employees related to non-core functions were terminated as part of management’s efforts to simplify business operations. As a result, the Company recorded $0.4 million in restructuring and severance costs in its consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2014, primarily related to severance paid or accrued for employees related to non-core functions.
	During the three months ended March 31, 2015, Additional severance costs were incurred for certain employees terminated as part of management’s continuing efforts to simplify business operations. As a result, the Company recorded $0.2 million in restructuring and severance costs and other closure related costs in its condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2015. In addition, the Company recorded an additional $0.1 million in severance costs during the three months ended March 31, 2015 in general and administrative related to executive position eliminations in conjunction with recent corporate restructuring and cost reduction activities.
	All unpaid restructuring and severance accruals are included in other accrued expenses and liabilities within current liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheet at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014.

	The Company leases its facilities, certain equipment, and automobiles under non-cancelable operating lease agreements. Those lease agreements existing as of March 31, 2015 expire at various dates during the next five years.
	The Company recognized rent expense of $0.4 million and $0.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, in its condensed consolidated statements of operations.
	Purchases for inventories are highly dependent upon forecasts of customer demand. Due to the uncertainty in demand from its customers, the Company may have to change, reschedule, or cancel purchases or purchase orders from its suppliers. These changes may lead to vendor cancellation charges on these purchases or contractual commitments.

	The Company provides warranties on certain product sales for periods ranging from 12 to 24 months, and allowances for estimated warranty costs are recorded during the period of sale. The determination of such allowances requires the Company to make estimates of product return rates and expected costs to repair or to replace the products under warranty. The Company currently establishes warranty reserves based on historical warranty costs for each product line combined with liability estimates based on the prior 12 months’ sales activities. If actual return rates and/or repair and replacement costs differ significantly from the Company’s estimates, adjustments to recognize additional cost of sales may be required in future periods. Historically the warranty accrual and the expense amounts have been immaterial.

	As discussed in Note 3, Fair Value Measurements, the Company recorded an earn-out obligation of $3.51 million as of December 31, 2014 related to the SPA (as defined in Note 3). The SPA provided for further consideration to be paid to the Selling Shareholders for each of the years or part years ended December 31, 2011, 2012, 2013 and 2014 based on the achievement of specific financial and sales performance targets, with the measurement of those achievements to be determined based on the financial records of idOnDemand. However, since the idOnDemand product group has been fully integrated into the Company since the acquisition and, as such, it was impractical to derive the discrete financial records of the related product group, the Company decided to engage a third party independent valuation firm to assist in the validation of the Earn-out Consideration liability as of December 31, 2014. The valuation was based on a calculation of the Company’s internal sales performance data as well as consideration of comparable companies’ metrics and data. The Board of Directors of the Company considered this valuation, among other factors, and approved the Earn-out Consideration liability for the period ended December 31, 2014.
	As outlined in the SPA, certain of the Selling Shareholders included the Company’s CEO and CFO. The Earn-out Consideration was settled on May 11, 2015 through the issuance of 326,276 shares of the Company’s common stock. The $3.51 million Earn-out Consideration was distributed to the Selling Shareholders in proportion to their former shareholdings, which included 294,750 shares distributed to our CEO and 921 shares distributed to our CFO. Company common shares issued will have a lock-up period of 12 months from date of issue.

Concentration of Credit Risk	Concentration of Credit Risk — One customer represented 21% of total revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2015. No customer represented more than 10% of total revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2014.   Two customers represented more than 10% of the Company’s accounts receivable balance at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively, with each customer representing approximately 12% and 11% of the Company’s accounts receivable balance at March 31, 2015 and 12% of the Company’s accounts receivable balance at December 31, 2014, respectively.

Reclassifications of prior period amounts related to discontinued operations have been made to conform to the current period presentation.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements	Recent Accounting Pronouncements
	In April 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2015-05, “Customer’s Accounting for Fees Paid in a Cloud Computing Arrangement” (ASU 2015-05”), which clarifies the circumstances under which a cloud computing customer would account for the arrangement as a license of internal-use software. ASU 2015-05 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2015-05 to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements or disclosures.
	In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, “Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs” (“ASU 2015-03”), which changes the presentation of debt issuance costs on the balance sheet by requiring entities to present such costs as a direct deduction from the related debt liability rather than as an asset. ASU 2015-03 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2015-03 to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements or disclosures.
	In January 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-01, “Simplifying Income Statement Presentation by Eliminating the Concept of Extraordinary Items” (“ASU 2015-01”). Under ASU 2015-01, an entity will no longer be allowed to separately disclose extraordinary items, net of tax, in the income statement after income from continuing operations if an event or transaction is unusual in nature and occurs infrequently. ASU 2015-01 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015 with early adoption permitted. Upon adoption, the Company may elect prospective or retrospective application. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2015-01 to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements or disclosures.
	In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, “Disclosure of Uncertainties About an Entity's Ability to Continue as a Going Concern”, (“ASU 2014-15”), which requires management to perform interim and annual assessments on whether there are conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about the entity's ability to continue as a going concern within one year of the date the financial statements are issued and to provide related disclosures, if required.  The amendments in ASU 2014-15 are effective for the annual period ending after December 15, 2016, and for annual and interim periods thereafter.  Early adoption is permitted. We are currently in the process of evaluating the impact of the adoption on our condensed consolidated financial statements.
	In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers" (“ASU 2014-09”), which supersedes nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance under U.S. GAAP. The core principle of ASU 2014-09 is to recognize revenues when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 defines a five step process to achieve this core principle and, in doing so, more judgment and estimates may be required within the revenue recognition process than are required under existing U.S. GAAP. It is effective for annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2016, and interim periods therein, using either of the following transition methods: (i) a full retrospective approach reflecting the application of the standard in each prior reporting period with the option to elect certain practical expedients, or (ii) a retrospective approach with the cumulative effect of initially adopting ASU 2014-09 recognized at the date of adoption (which includes additional footnote disclosures). Early adoption is not permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of our pending adoption of ASU 2014-09 on our condensed consolidated financial statements and have not yet determined the method by which we will adopt the standard in 2017.
