Executive summary

  • Backlog reached $15.0 million as of October 31, 2025, up $11.2 million year-over-year, with a pipeline of $137.5 million, reflecting strong demand across defense, government security, offshore energy, and commercial sectors.

  • Revenue for the quarter was $0.4 million, down from $2.4 million in the prior year period, mainly due to timing impacts from the U.S. federal government shutdown shifting deliverables to later quarters.

  • Net loss for the quarter was $10.8 million, compared to $3.9 million in the prior year; for the six months, net loss was $18.2 million versus $8.4 million year-over-year.

  • Operational reorganization, headcount expansion, and strategic partnerships with Mythos AI and Gradient Marine focused on delivery, R&D, and expanding autonomy and digital-twin capabilities.

  • International demonstrations in Latin America and the U.A.E. validated system performance and expanded customer engagement, supporting global growth.

Financial highlights

  • Gross profit for the quarter was a loss of $1.4 million, compared to a profit of $0.8 million in the prior year, with gross margin impacted by one-time contract losses.

  • Operating expenses rose to $8.8 million for the quarter, mainly due to higher non-cash stock-based compensation and targeted growth investments.

  • Cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments totaled $11.7 million as of October 31, 2025, up from $6.7 million at the fiscal year's start.

  • Net cash used in operating activities for the six-month period was $13.1 million, compared to $10.9 million in the prior year.

  • Net cash provided by financing activities was $19.8 million, primarily from convertible notes and equity offerings.

Outlook and guidance

  • Management expects delayed revenue from the government shutdown to convert later in the fiscal year, with operational momentum and pipeline conversion supporting future growth.

  • Anticipated buoy orders and pre-built assets position the company for near-term deliveries as government and commercial demand accelerates.

  • Strategic partnerships and certifications are anticipated to accelerate commercialization and expand addressable markets.

  • Headcount expansion is largely complete, with future additions tied directly to order conversions.

  • Current cash, cash equivalents, and financing facilities are expected to fund operations through December 2026.

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.
