Acorn Energy reports Q3 EPS 10c vs 29c last year

Reports Q3 revenue $2.478M vs $3.050M last year. Jan Loeb, Acorn’s CEO, commented, “Q3’25 hardware revenue decreased as we did not have any hardware sales from our cellphone provider contract during this quarter versus hardware revenue of $724,000 in Q3’24 related to sales from that contract. What was originally expected to be a two-year hardware rollout was predominantly fulfilled within 12 months as our customer requested faster hardware delivery which we were able to meet. Also impacting the year-over-year comparison was $215,000 in the amortization of deferred hardware revenue recorded in Q3’25 compared to $436,000 of amortization of deferred hardware revenue recorded in Q3’24. The amount of revenue recognized from the amortization of deferred revenue will continue to decrease as we have not deferred revenue from hardware sales since September 1, 2023 when we commenced selling hardware units that can be sold separable from our monitoring services. We expect all deferred hardware revenue to be fully amortized by August 2026. In addition, we have seen a slowdown in residential deployments in 2025 which we believe is primarily the result of relatively high interest rates, fewer weather events and economic uncertainty on consumer decision making.”
