Financial Highlights

  • Revenue increased 5% to $34.8 million for the first quarter of 2025, compared to $33.1 million for the first quarter of 2024 primarily due to additional revenue related to Department of Homeland Security and Digital Identity awards.

  • Gross margin was 21.3% in the first quarter of 2025, compared to 21.1% in the first quarter of 2024.

  • Net loss in the first quarter of 2025 was $62.0 million, compared to a net loss of $127.8 million for the first quarter of 2024. The decrease in net loss was primarily driven by non-cash goodwill impairment charges of $85.0 million in the first quarter of 2024 that were not repeated in the first quarter of 2025, partially offset by higher non-cash losses on the increase in fair value of derivatives of $33.3 million in the first quarter of 2025 compared to $23.8 million in the first quarter of 2024, $2.6 million of non-cash losses on debt extinguishment in the first quarter of 2025 related to voluntary conversions by the holders of the convertible notes due in 2029, as well an increase of $2.2 million in equity-based compensation expense, primarily as a result of awards granted in the first quarter of 2025.

  • Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA* of $(7.0) million for the first quarter of 2025 compared to $(1.6) million for the first quarter of 2024, primarily driven by increased research and development expense and Recurring SG&A* due to government funding delays creating excess resource capacity.

  • SG&A of $22.7 million for the first quarter of 2025 compared to $16.9 million for the first quarter of 2024 and Recurring SG&A* of $17.7 million in the first quarter of 2025 compared to $13.6 million in the first quarter of 2024. The year-over-year increases include Pangiam’s headcount and operating expenses not fully included in the first quarter of 2024 (acquired as of March 1, 2024) as well as the carrying cost of excess resource capacity due to government funding delays.

  • Ending backlog of $385 million as of March 31, 2025.
