Company Guidance

The company reiterated guidance for meaningful revenue growth in FY2026 but emphasized timing risk: Q2 revenue was $8.4M (up 49.5% sequentially from Q1’s $5.6M but down ~20% year-over-year), with $2.6M of contracted defense revenue deferred into H2 due to battery supply issues; services/training made up 57% of Q2 revenue (56% for H1) and products/equipment 43% (44% H1). Gross margin was 29.3% in Q2 (35% in Q1), with a 6-month margin of 31.6% vs. 31.9% a year ago and a long‑term target of 35–40%. Adjusted EBITDA loss widened to $4.35M for the quarter (vs. ~$0.3M a year ago) as the company deliberately invested in people, V‑Cortex, Mirabel and defense capabilities. Balance sheet metrics provide runway: cash $59.2M, working capital ~ $64M, total assets ~ $119M and shareholders’ equity ~ $87M. Operational capacity metrics include a 53,000 sq ft Mirabel facility with ~ $250M annual revenue potential, Condor payload ~180 kg and Flyox ~1,500 L water/cargo capability; key program/timing milestones cited include the Defense Drone Initiative supplier list in early September and an expected Defense Investment Agency milestone in late Sept/Oct, plus an ambition for deep precision strike capability by June 2027.
