The company's earnings call reveals mixed signals. While the transition to a SaaS model and AI investments are positive, macroeconomic headwinds, increased operating expenses, and gross margin compression are concerning. The substantial net loss and uneven revenue recognition due to the SaaS transition further dampen sentiment. Despite some strategic wins, the overall financial health and guidance appear weak, leading to a negative outlook.
Total Net Revenues $15 million, a 2.8% increase year-over-year. This growth was driven by a 9.4% increase in subscription and support revenues.
Subscription and Support Revenues $9 million, a 9.4% increase year-over-year. This increase reflects the company's transition to a SaaS-based model and growing demand for recurring revenue streams.
Services Revenue $6 million, a decrease from $6.4 million in the prior year period. This decline is attributed to changes in the revenue mix and timing of customer milestones.
Gross Profit $5.9 million or 39.4% of net revenues, down from $6.6 million or 45% of net revenues in the prior year period. The decline is due to increased operating expenses and foreign exchange volatility.
Operating Expenses $7.8 million or 51.6% of sales, up from $7.3 million or 50.2% of sales in the prior year period. The increase is primarily due to a 36% rise in selling and marketing costs driven by global sales expansion and senior-level hires.
Loss from Operations $1.8 million, compared to a loss of $760,000 in the prior year period. This reflects higher operating expenses and macroeconomic challenges.
GAAP Net Loss $2.4 million or $0.20 per diluted share, compared to GAAP net income of $71,000 or $0.006 per diluted share in the prior year period. The loss includes a $287,000 loss on foreign currency exchange transactions.
Non-GAAP EBITDA A loss of $1.8 million or $0.15 per diluted share, compared to non-GAAP EBITDA of $301,000 or $0.03 per diluted share in the prior year period. This reflects increased investments and operating expenses.
Cash and Cash Equivalents $22.7 million as of September 30, 2025, up from $17.4 million as of June 30, 2025. The increase is attributed to improved cash management and operational liquidity.
Working Capital $24.9 million as of September 30, 2025, down from $26.6 million as of June 30, 2025. The decline is due to higher operating expenses and investments.
