What Vantiva does

Vantiva (Euronext Paris: VANTI), formerly Technicolor, is a Paris-headquartered global provider of Customer Premises Equipment (CPE) for the connected home, tracing its heritage to the 1893-founded Thomson group. The company designs and manufactures broadband gateways (DOCSIS 3.1+/4.0, fiber, 5G FWA), Wi-Fi routers and extenders, mesh platforms, and video set-top boxes (Android TV, RDK-V, Linux), complemented by an in-house software stack spanning Homeware/OpenWRT, prplOS, RDK-B, Navigate Cloud, and ECO Service Management. Its customers are predominantly Tier 1 and Tier 2 network service providers worldwide — including Comcast, T-Mobile, Orange, Vodafone, BT Group, Jio, TIM, Altibox, and Proximus — served through a direct enterprise field-sales model with co-developed product roadmaps and Day 2 operational services.

Revenue is generated primarily through B2B hardware sales to operators, supplemented by professional services across the device lifecycle and consumer retail distribution of the SURFboard brand. A second business, HomeSight, operates a TV-based connected-care platform distributed through homecare providers such as Comfort Keepers (600+ franchise locations). AI is deployed through the Navigate Cloud platform for real-time Wi-Fi optimization, predictive troubleshooting, and zero-touch updates, with edge inference for latency-sensitive use cases. Operationally, Vantiva employs 4,000+ people across 50 nationalities in 20 countries and reports a global manufacturing and R&D footprint anchored by an in-house antenna design team in France.

FY2025 financials show revenue of €1,736M (down 7% YoY) with Broadband up 9.1% and Video down 37.7%, Adjusted EBITDA of €145M (up 33.4%), positive free cash flow of €62M (vs. negative €25M in 2024), and a net loss of €393M including €248M from discontinued activities. Recent strategic moves include the January 2024 acquisition of CommScope's Home Networks division (issued 25% equity plus up to $100M EBITDA earn-out), the April 2025 divestiture of the Supply Chain Solutions business to Variant Equity (rebranded Conectiv), the 2026 launch of the Hawk 5G FWA Gateway with Qualcomm Dragonwing, Wi-Fi 8 early access with Broadcom, and a 4-year debt refinancing completed in 2026.
