Item 7.01 | Regulation FD Disclosure. |
Identiv, Inc. (“Identiv” or the “Company”) has initiated multiple legal proceedings in Europe in response to business practices of Tageos SAS (“Tageos”) that it alleges to be anti-competitive, including the misappropriation of trade secrets and confidential information about Identiv.
In February 2024, Identiv discovered that Tageos had in its possession information that Identiv alleges to be unauthorized confidential information and trade secrets of Identiv. Following this discovery, Identiv took action, pursuing legal relief intended to protect the Company’s business, and safeguard its confidential information. A hearing at the regional court in Munich, Germany is currently scheduled for mid-May 2024.
