Genasys Reports Q4 Revenue of $17.0M, Below Estimates
Reports Q4 revenue $17.0M, two estimates $19.9M. "The fourth quarter marked an inflection point for Genasys," said Richard Danforth, Genasys' Chief Executive Officer. "With the benefits of our strategic efforts starting to materialize, we delivered a significant increase in revenue and returned to positive operating income and adjusted EBITDA*. Our gross margin returned to 50%, which we expect to be a more normalized level going forward. Furthermore, we expanded our backlog, as we continued to win new deals in both our hardware and software businesses. This is an exciting phase for Genasys. We are executing on the large opportunities in our backlog and are beginning to build momentum in our pipeline across all business verticals. Demand for our technology continues to build globally across defense, public safety, emergency warning, and other critical markets. Success in Puerto Rico has accelerated interest from international governments seeking similar solutions, and we believe these Early Warning System projects will become an important growth driver as we move through 2026 and 2027. Additionally, our LRAD business continues to be validated with a consistent flow of new and follow-on orders across various end markets. On the software side, governments and law enforcement agencies are increasingly turning to Genasys to strengthen their crisis communication processes, and we expect ongoing growth in our software offerings. Entering fiscal 2026 with a strong backlog, we expect sustained year-over-year revenue growth with gross margins near 50%. Overall, it was a successful quarter for Genasys, and we are confident we can build on this positive performance and drive meaningful value creation for our shareholders."
