NEW YORK, January 1, 2026, 09:57 ET — Market closed
- Impinj shares rose 3.21% in the last U.S. session, closing at $174.01.
- U.S. exchanges are shut for New Year’s Day and reopen Friday.
- Focus shifts to Impinj’s upcoming quarterly results and early-January macro data, including the Jan. 9 jobs report.
Impinj, Inc. (PI) shares ended Wednesday up 3.21% at $174.01, after trading between $168.03 and $176.46. The RFID chipmaker was last up 0.7% in after-hours trading at $175.22, data showed. https://www.investing.com/equities/impinj-…
The move came as U.S. stocks slipped into the year-end close in holiday-thinned trade, with the S&P 500 down 0.74% and the Nasdaq down 0.76%, Reuters reported. “it’s perfectly fine in any bull market to have moments of cost,” said Giuseppe Sette, co-founder and president of Reflexivity. https://www.reuters.com/business/us-stock-futures-inch-down-thin-trading-wall-street-eyes-yearly-gains-2025-12-31/
Why the timing matters for Impinj is simple: the quarter ended on Dec. 31, and the next earnings update will test the company’s latest outlook. Impinj last forecast fourth-quarter revenue of $90 million to $93 million and adjusted EBITDA of $15.4 million to $16.9 million. https://investor.impinj.com/news/press-rel…
Impinj sells RAIN RFID products — radio frequency identification technology that lets companies identify and track tagged items using wireless readers instead of scanning barcodes one-by-one. It serves retail, logistics and industrial customers looking to automate inventory and item tracking. https://www.reuters.com/markets/companies/PI.OQ/
U.S. stock markets are closed Thursday for New Year’s Day and will reopen Friday, according to the NYSE holiday calendar. https://www.nyse.com/markets/hours-calenda…
Impinj’s outperformance into the close underscores how single-name moves can stand out when broader liquidity is thin. Volatility around the turn of the year can leave price action more sensitive to positioning and smaller order flow.
For investors, the next company-specific catalyst is the fourth-quarter earnings report and any guidance for 2026 demand. Watchpoints include tag-chip demand, pricing and any commentary on customer deployment pace.
Adjusted EBITDA is a profit metric that strips out interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, and is often used by investors as a cash-flow-style gauge. Impinj’s prior forecast puts that metric in focus alongside revenue when results arrive.
From a chart perspective, traders will likely treat Wednesday’s low near $168 as near-term support and the day’s high near $176 as a first resistance level. A break outside that range can attract momentum trading when the market reopens.
Macro sensitivity remains a factor for chip-related stocks, since rates and risk appetite can shift quickly at the start of the year. The U.S. employment report for December is due Jan. 9, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. https://www.bls.gov/schedule/news_release/…
