Executive summary

  • Fiscal 2025 was a foundational year marked by strategic progress in technology, leadership, certifications, and market positioning, despite revenue variability, especially in the federal sector.

  • Expanded federal, commercial, and international engagement, including first mobile biometric deployment in a U.S. federal agency and growth in government programs.

  • Strengthened technology leadership with new certifications, top-tier performance in industry validation events, and independent evaluations.

  • Enhanced leadership team with new heads of engineering and product to accelerate innovation and operational improvements.

  • Focus for 2026 is on disciplined execution, platform advancement, converting pilots, scaling revenue, and delivering long-term growth.

Financial highlights

  • Q4 2025 revenue was $4.7 million, slightly down from $4.8 million in Q4 2024, mainly due to lower perpetual license revenue offset by higher maintenance and services.

  • Q4 net loss was $1.5 million ($0.07/share) vs. $1.2 million ($0.06/share) prior year; adjusted EBITDA loss was $800,000 for both periods.

  • Full-year 2025 revenue was $17.3 million, nearly flat year-over-year; net loss widened to $5.9 million ($0.28/share) from $4.4 million ($0.21/share) in 2024.

  • Cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities totaled $22.3 million at year-end 2025, down from $27.8 million at year-end 2024; no debt.

  • Operating expenses for 2025 were $23.9 million, up from $22.9 million in 2024, mainly due to increased R&D and personnel costs.

Outlook and guidance

  • Expect continued variability in quarterly results due to procurement cycles and customer conversion timing, especially in government and large enterprise markets.

  • Management expects to advance the Awareness Platform and scale solutions in federal, aviation, and enterprise markets in 2026.

  • Performance best evaluated over multiple quarters; focus is on disciplined execution, converting pilots, scaling revenue, and delivering long-term growth.

  • Investors should look for improved pipeline conversion, recurring deployments, and greater consistency in bookings and revenue.

excellent app, it gives me free access to company earnings calls and annual reports. I also love the convenience of calls being available offline so I can listen in whilst doing other things and even when internet or WiFi isn't available.

One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.
