Return to GAAP Profitability
GAAP net income of $0.6M in Q2 FY26 versus a GAAP net loss of $6.1M in Q2 FY25; operating income of $1.3M versus an operating loss of $6.3M prior year; adjusted EBITDA of $2.5M compared to negative $5.1M a year ago — material improvement in profitability and operating leverage.
Strong Revenue Growth
Total revenue of $15.5M in Q2 FY26, up 124% year-over-year. Hardware revenue grew roughly 180% YoY (includes Puerto Rico contribution). Software revenue increased 6% YoY to $2.4M and was up ~5% sequentially.
Exceptional Gross Margins
Q2 gross margin was 63.3%; year-to-date (first two quarters) gross margin is 55.3%. Management expects to deliver annualized gross margins over 50% driven by product mix and pricing discipline.
Puerto Rico Project Execution
$10.3M of Q2 revenue was attributable to the Puerto Rico dam early warning system project; groups 3, 5 and 6 have been completed and group 1 is on pace to finish in June. Management reports active collection efforts and recent payment activity tied to this program.
Backlog, Large Programs and Addressable Markets
Backlog ended Q2 at $58M. Began production on a $9M CROWS AHD tech refresh program (addressable market for refit estimated at ~$175M for ~5,000 units). Completed installation of 4 LRAD 950 NXT units for a large US utility and expect orders for 26 additional NXTs — illustrating meaningful follow-on potential.
Operating Discipline and Cost Control
Operating expenses of $8.5M in the quarter, down 4% versus prior year and flat sequentially. Management reports the organization is 'right-sized' and expects OpEx to normalize near current levels.
