Wasatch Micro Cap Value Strategy made the following comment about Impinj, Inc. (NASDAQ:PI) in its Q3 2023 investor letter:
“Impinj, Inc. (NASDAQ:PI) was the strategy’s largest detractor from performance in the quarter. The company, a pioneer in helping develop the “Internet of Things,” provides an infrastructure by which everyday things—such as car parts and even shipping containers—communicate over the internet. Impinj deploys wireless inventory management and tracking platforms for customers in retail, manufacturing, health care and other areas. The company also provides tiny radio-frequency identification chips to connect, count and track individual items. During the past several months, the stock has fallen due to a slowdown in platform deployments and chip orders. The slowdown has occurred because customers had previously stocked up with extra inventory based on fears over Covid-related supply-chain disruptions. Despite the slowdown, we expect deployments and orders to ramp up in 2024. And we still like the company for its long-term growth potential.”
