WASHINGTON, Jan. 19, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Cohen Milstein Sellers & Toll PLLC is conducting an investigation to determine whether Identiv, Inc. (“Identiv” or the “Company”) and certain of its officers and directors made false and misleading statements and/or omissions in violation of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. 

A class action lawsuit was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California by another law firm on behalf of purchasers of the common stock of Identiv, Inc. (NASDAQ:INVE) between November 7, 2013 and November 23, 2015, inclusive (the “Class Period”). 

The complaint alleges that Identiv and certain of its officers and directors (“Defendants”) made misleading statements regarding the Company's revenue recognition practices, key accounting metrics, and its internal controls.  As a result, the Complaint alleges that Defendants’ statements about Identiv’s business, operations, and prospects, were false and misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis.

On November 30, 2015, Identiv announced that its independent public accounting firm, BDO USA LLP, had resigned and was unwilling to be associated with the Company’s previously issued financial statements for 2015 due to disagreements with management over the scope of an internal investigation begun in May 2015 and the adequacy of the Company’s internal controls. 

On this news, the price of the Company's stock fell from a closing share price of $2.95 on November 30, 2015 to $2.49 per share on December 1, 2015, on extremely heavy trading volume.

Cohen Milstein encourages all investors who purchased Identiv common stock between November 7, 2013 and November 23, 2015, or former employees with information concerning this matter to contact the firm.
