Genasys Inc. Reports Fiscal Third Quarter 2026 Results
SAN DIEGO, CA – August 13, 2026 – Genasys Inc. (NASDAQ: GNSS), the global leader in Protective Communications®, today announced full financial results for the Company’s fiscal 2026 third quarter ended June 30, 2026.
Fiscal Q3 2026 Financial Summary
Recent Business Highlights and Developments
Management Commentary and Outlook
“Fiscal third quarter results reflect timing rather than demand," said Richard Danforth, Genasys' Chief Executive Officer. "Supply chain constraints delayed Common Remotely Operated Weapon Station (CROWS) II Technical Refresh program deliveries, and work on the Puerto Rico Dams Early Warning System project was paced pending receipt of customer payments. The Company has now begun receiving those payments. Our people and equipment are on the
island, the CROWS constraint has been resolved, and the underlying fundamentals of the business remain strong.
“Despite these headwinds, we took meaningful steps over the past few months to better position the Company. We closed a Third Amendment to our Term Loan Agreement, extending the maturity to July 2027 and replacing a single balloon payment with monthly amortization that better aligns our obligations with the timing of customer collections. We made targeted adjustments to headcount and operating expenses, streamlining our organization to improve our operating leverage as revenue scales. These actions position us to capitalize on the demand we see across the business.
“Our Protect software platform now reaches 15% of the U.S. population and 20% of the country by area, making it the nation's leading zone-based emergency alerting and evacuation management platform, while hardware demand continues to build with key wins across critical infrastructure and international customers. This is reflected in a backlog of more than $69 million heading into the fiscal fourth quarter.
“With the CROWS constraints resolved, Puerto Rico payment backlog having been reduced, and demand building across both hardware and software, we expect to deliver a strong fourth quarter. We remain on track to complete our planned scope this fiscal year and continue to expect a record year of revenue and profitability.”
Fiscal Q3 2026 Financial Results
Fiscal third quarter revenue was $7.3 million, compared to $9.9 million in the prior year’s quarter.
Gross profit margin was 57.1%, compared to 26.3% in third quarter of fiscal 2025. The increase in gross profit margin was primarily driven by the higher mix of software revenue in the quarter.
Operating expenses decreased 3.8% to $8.2 million from $8.5 million in the prior year period. Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased 4.6% to $6.1 million. Research and development expenses decreased 1.2% year-over-year to $2.1 million.
GAAP net loss in the quarter was ($4.7) million, or ($0.10) per share, basic and diluted, compared with a GAAP net loss of ($6.5) million, or ($0.14) per share, in the third quarter of fiscal 2025. The improvement in GAAP net loss was primarily driven by the increase in gross margins and was partially offset by the decrease in revenue.
Adjusted EBITDA was ($3.1) million for the third quarter of fiscal 2026, compared with ($4.8) million for the prior fiscal year period.
Cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities totaled $3.1 million as of June 30, 2026, compared to $8.0 million at September 30, 2025.
We include in this press release adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measure and which we believe provides helpful information to investors with respect to evaluating the Company’s performance. Adjusted EBITDA represents our net income (loss) before interest income, interest expense, income tax expense (benefit), depreciation and amortization expense, share-based compensation, fair value measurements of our term loans and warrants, other non-recurring expense, and other items that we do not consider indicative of our core operating performance. Adjusted EBITDA is a measure used by management to understand and evaluate our core operating performance and trends and to generate future operating plans, make strategic decisions regarding allocation of capital and invest in initiatives that are focused on cultivating new markets for our solutions. In particular, the exclusion of certain expenses in calculating adjusted EBITDA facilitates comparisons of our operating performance on a period-to-period basis. However, since adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure, it is not necessarily comparable with adjusted EBITDA used by other companies. Adjusted EBITDA has limitations and should not be considered in isolation or a substitute for performance measures calculated under GAAP, including net income (loss).
