Thirty-Eighth Consecutive Period of Record Revenue

TUCSON, Ariz., Aug. 7, 2025 /PRNewswire/ --听听(Nasdaq: AEYE) ("AudioEye" or the "Company"), the industry-leading digital accessibility company,听reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2025.

"We achieved our 38^th sequential quarter of growth, a remarkable achievement. We expect annualized sequential revenue growth in the high teens in the second half, driven by business momentum in the United States as well as in the EU with the newly enacted European Accessibility Act," said AudioEye CEO David Moradi. "Sequential revenue growth, coupled with prudent expense management, is expected to result in record adjusted EBITDA margins and net income margins in the second half. Our business model is highly scalable, and we have an aspirational goal to grow our adjusted EPS and EPS annually by 30-40% for the next three years."

Second Quarter 2025 Financial Results

• Total revenue increased 16% to a record $9.9M from $8.5M in the same prior year period.
• Gross profit increased to $7.6M (77% of total revenue) from $6.7M (79% of total revenue) in the same prior year period. The increase in gross profit resulted from continued revenue growth. Gross margin decreased primarily due to additional costs incurred for service delivery and higher amortization expense related to capitalized software development costs.
• Total operating expenses increased 2% to $7.4M from $7.2M in the same prior year period. The increase in operating expenses was primarily due to additional selling and marketing expenses of $0.8M, additional stock compensation expense of $0.5M, and additional amortization of intangibles related to acquisitions of $0.4M, partially offset by a change in fair value of contingent consideration of $1.4M.
• Net loss was $0.0M, or $(0.00) per share, compared to a net loss of $0.7M, or $(0.06) per share, in the same prior year period. The decrease in net loss was primarily due to the increase in gross profit, partially offset by the operating expenses noted above.
• Adjusted EBITDA in Q2 2025 was $1.9M, and adjusted EPS was $0.15, compared to adjusted EBITDA of $1.5M and adjusted EPS of $0.12 in the same prior year period. The adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EPS performance reflect adjustments primarily for stock-based compensation expense, change in fair value of contingent consideration, depreciation and amortization, litigation expense, and interest expense.
• Annual Recurring Revenue ("ARR") as of June 30, 2025 increased sequentially to $38.2M from $37.1M as of March 31, 2025.
• As of June 30, 2025, the Company had $6.9M in cash and cash equivalents, compared to $8.3M as of March 31, 2025.

Other Updates

• On June 28, 2025, the European Accessibility Act ("EAA") officially went into effect. The EAA introduces wide-reaching requirements for businesses operating in the EU to ensure digital products and services are accessible to people with disabilities and carries significant penalties for non-compliance. We are beginning to see the development and enforcement plans for specific countries, which are expected to drive demand and compliance.
• As of June 30, 2025, AudioEye had approximately 120,000 customers, up 1,000 sequentially from March 31, 2025, driven by increases in both the Partner and Marketplace and Enterprise channels.

Financial Outlook
AudioEye expects revenue of between $10.2M and $10.4M for the third quarter of 2025, representing an annualized growth rate of 18% at the midpoint. AudioEye is updating its full year 2025 guidance and now expects revenue to be between $40.3M and $40.7M, which reflects the phase out of certain customers in connection with previous acquisitions. The Company is eliminating these legacy platforms to avoid duplicate systems, remove technology debt, and focus on synergistic cash flow. The Company also expects adjusted EBITDA of between $2.2M and $2.4M for the third quarter of 2025 and now expects between $8.9M and $9.1M for the full year 2025. The Company expects adjusted EPS of between $0.17 and $0.19 per share for the third quarter of 2025 and now expects between $0.71 and $0.73 per share for the full year 2025.

About Key Operating Metrics
We consider annual recurring revenue ("ARR") as a key operating metric and a key indicator of our overall business. We also use ARR as one of the primary methods for planning and forecasting overall expectations and for evaluating, on at least a quarterly and annual basis, actual results against such expectations.

We manage customers through two primary channels, Enterprise and Partner and Marketplace. Enterprise channel consists of our larger customers and organizations, including those with non-platform custom websites, who generally engage directly with AudioEye sales personnel for custom pricing and solutions. This channel also includes federal, state and local government agencies. The Partner and Marketplace channel consists of our CMS partners, platform & agency partners, authorized resellers and our marketplace. This channel serves small and medium sized businesses who are on a partner or reseller's web-hosting platform or who purchase an AudioEye solution from our marketplace.

We define ARR as the sum of (i) for our Enterprise channel, the total of the annualized recurring fee at the date of determination under each active contract, plus (ii) for our Partner and Marketplace channel, the听annual or听monthly recurring fee for all active customers at the date of determination, in each case, assuming no changes to the subscription, multiplied by 12听if applicable. Recurring fees are defined as revenues expected to be generated from services听typically听offered as a subscription service or annual service offering听such as听our automation and platform, periodic auditing, human-assisted technological fixes, legal support and professional听service offerings and other services that reoccur on a multi-year contract. This determination includes both annual and monthly contracts for recurring products. Some of our contracts are听terminable prior to the expected term, which may impact future ARR. ARR excludes听non-recurring fees, which are defined as听revenue expected to be generated from听services typically not offered as a subscription service or annual service offering such as听our PDF remediation services business, one-time听mobile application听reports, and other miscellaneous听services听that are听offered听as non-subscription services or are expected to be one-time in nature.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company has supplemented the consolidated financial statements presented on a GAAP basis in this press release with the following non-GAAP financial measures: Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, and Adjusted earnings per diluted share (Adjusted EPS).

Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, and Adjusted EPS are used to facilitate a comparison of our operating performance on a consistent basis from period to period and provide for a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our business than GAAP measures alone. All of the items adjusted in the Adjusted EBITDA and the Adjusted EPS calculations are either recurring non-cash items or听items that management does not consider in assessing our ongoing operating performance. In the case of the non-cash items, such as stock-based compensation expense and valuation adjustments to assets and liabilities, management believes that investors may find it useful to assess our comparative operating performance because the measures without such items are expected to be less susceptible to variances in actual performance resulting from expenses that do not relate to our core operations and are more reflective of other factors that affect operating performance. In the case of items that do not relate to our core operations, management believes that investors may find it useful to assess our operating performance if the measures are presented without these items because their financial impact does not reflect ongoing operating performance.

Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of liquidity under GAAP, or otherwise, and is not an alternative to cash flow from continuing operating activities, despite the advantages regarding the use and analysis of this measure as mentioned above. Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, and Adjusted EPS, as disclosed in this press release, have limitations as analytical tools, and you should not consider these measures in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP; nor are these measures intended to be measures of liquidity or free cash flow.

To properly and prudently evaluate our business, we encourage readers to review the consolidated GAAP financial statements included in this press release and not rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business. The following tables set forth reconciliations of Adjusted EBITDA to net loss, the most directly comparable GAAP-based measure, as well as Adjusted EPS to net loss per diluted share, the most directly comparable GAAP-based measure. We strongly urge readers to review these reconciliations, along with the financial statements included in this press release.听In addition, because the non-GAAP measures are not measures of financial performance under GAAP and are susceptible to varying calculations, these measures, as defined by us, may differ from and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.

Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, and Adjusted Earnings per Diluted Share
We define: (i) Adjusted EBITDA as net loss, plus interest expense, plus depreciation and amortization expense, plus stock-based compensation expense, less change in fair value of contingent consideration, plus certain litigation expense,听plus certain severance expense, plus certain acquisition expense, plus loss on disposal or impairment of long-lived assets, plus loss on extinguishment of debt, and plus lost deposit on alternative financing; (ii) Adjusted EBITDA margin as Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of GAAP revenue; and (iii) Adjusted EPS as net loss per diluted common share, plus interest expense, plus depreciation and amortization expense, plus stock-based compensation expense, less change in fair value of contingent consideration, plus certain litigation expense,听plus certain severance expense, plus certain acquisition expense, plus loss on disposal or impairment of long-lived assets, plus loss on extinguishment of debt, and plus lost deposit on alternative financing, each on a per share basis. Adjusted EPS includes incremental shares in the share count that are considered anti-dilutive in a GAAP net loss position.

Forward-Looking Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release also includes the forward-looking听non-GAAP听financial measures of adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EPS guidance for the third quarter and full year 2025. We calculate forward-looking听non-GAAP听financial measures based on internal forecasts that omit certain amounts that would be included in GAAP financial measures. We have not provided quantitative reconciliations of these forward-looking听non-GAAP听financial measures to the most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP financial measures because the excluded items are not available on a prospective basis without unreasonable efforts. In addition, the Company believes such reconciliations would imply a degree of precision and certainty that could be confusing to investors. It is probable that these forward-looking听non-GAAP听financial measures may be materially different from the corresponding GAAP financial measures.
