Action:Reiterated
Date:07/25/26
PRSO scores low primarily due to weak financial performance—shrinking revenue, heavy losses, and ongoing cash burn—despite low leverage. Technicals also reflect a sustained downtrend (below key moving averages with negative MACD). Earnings-call updates and corporate events add near-term risk via low cash, uneven demand visibility, reliance on equity funding, and Nasdaq compliance pressure.
Positive Factors
Low leverage / clean balance sheet
Very low debt materially reduces solvency risk and gives management optionality to pursue product development, defense qualification and customer ramps without heavy interest burdens. Over 2–6 months this provides financial flexibility even as operating losses persist, lowering short-term bankruptcy risk.
Negative Factors
Persistent cash burn & low liquidity
Sustained negative OCF and FCF with only a few million of cash creates a near-term structural funding need. Over the next several months the business will likely depend on equity financings or asset sales to sustain operations, increasing execution risk and limiting investment runway for commercialization.

Peraso Earnings Call Summary
Earnings Call Date:May 11, 2026
(Q1-2026)
| % Change Since: |
Next Earnings Date:Aug 11, 2026
Earnings Call Sentiment Negative
The call presented mixed dynamics: meaningful strategic and product-level progress (MikroTik design-win, INTAC defense engagement, initial IFF shipments, and expanding edge AI/tactical pipeline) and disciplined cost control, but these positives are outweighed by significant near-term commercial and financial headwinds—sharp revenue decline (≈ -65.5% QoQ, ≈ -74.4% YoY), widening GAAP and non-GAAP losses, negative adjusted EBITDA, low cash balance, and continued market/memory supply pressure that reduce visibility. Management highlights long-term opportunities (defense and edge AI) but material execution and timing risk remain for revenue recovery.Positive Updates
Strategic Customer Wins and Partnerships
Secured a notable design-win with MikroTik (nRay 60 GHz product launched at MWC) and announced INTAC as a defense contractor customer; these wins increase addressable markets in fixed wireless access and tactical communications.
Negative Updates
Sharp Revenue Decline
Total net revenue for Q1 2026 was $1.0M, down sequentially from $2.9M (≈ -65.5% QoQ) and down year-over-year from $3.9M (≈ -74.4% YoY).

Company Guidance
Peraso guided Q2 2026 revenue of approximately $1.2 million (Q1 revenue was $1.0M vs $2.9M in Q4 2025 and $3.9M in Q1 2025) and said Q1’s inflated margin (61.5%) should normalize into the “50s” as mix shifts back to product sales; non‑GAAP operating expenses remain ~ $3.0M per quarter (Q1 non‑GAAP OPEX $2.9M, GAAP OPEX $3.1M). Q1 GAAP net loss was $2.5M, or $0.22 per share (non‑GAAP net loss $2.3M, or $0.20), adjusted EBITDA was negative $2.3M (vs −$1.1M in the prior quarter and −$0.3M YoY), cash was ~$2.7M at 3/31/26 (down ~$0.2M from $2.9M), Q1 capex was $2.5M, ATM proceeds were $2.3M, and shares outstanding are roughly 14.2–14.5M (weighted avg shares for EPS ~11.6M). Management reaffirmed expectation of NRE and field trials this year with production ramps into late 2026/2027 for defense opportunities and said the Q1 supplier issue is resolved.Peraso Financial Statement Overview
