Insights

Corporate Financial Strategist

Mixed quarter: steep revenue decline and wider GAAP losses, but clearer non‑GAAP margins, cost cuts, liquidity and international expansion provide optionality.

Revenue fell to $5.8 million for the quarter, a 50% decline year‑over‑year, and the company reported a GAAP net loss of $4.9 million for the quarter and $24.7 million year‑to‑date. Offsetting items include an adjusted non‑GAAP gross margin of 22% for Q3 YTD 2025 (up 4% vs. the prior non‑cash adjusted period), an unused $100 million line of credit, claimed debt‑free status, and a contracted backlog of $8 million.

Key dependencies and risks point to near‑term execution: revenue volatility driven by "order timing" and a noted reversal of a U.S. federal fleet electrification commitment materially reduced top line results. Improvements in operating expense control (non‑GAAP reductions of roughly $1.9 million YTD) and patent and certification milestones strengthen structural positioning but do not negate the immediate cash and demand shortfall. Monitor cash trends closely given $3.3 million cash on hand at quarter end and the company’s historical reliance on external financing for operations and acquisitions.

Concrete items to watch over the coming quarters include realization of the $8 million backlog, the pace and commercial scale of deployments in the Middle East and U.S. commercial channels, follow‑through on claimed margin synergies from acquisitions, and cash at quarter end vs. operating burn. Management’s conference call on November 14, 2025 will provide the next direct update on order timing, backlog conversion and liquidity plans.

“Although we had some unfortunate order timing in the 3^rd quarter we simultaneously took some of the most important steps in our history for growth,” said Desmond Wheatley, CEO of Beam Global. “Our expansion into the Middle East, a market, which has announced it will invest $1 trillion in the next decade in sustainable infrastructure, has created new opportunities, not just for global growth, but also for a fantastic evolution of the uses of our products for drones and autonomous vehicles. Beam Global has always been a little ahead of its time, but now we’re finding that our superior battery technology, our ability to rapidly and autonomously deploy sustainable charging infrastructure which can charge autonomous vehicles, wirelessly, without any human intervention, and some of our other products like our BeamFlight™ (formerly UAV ARC) rapidly deployed and autonomous drone recharging product, are coming-of-age, particularly in markets like the Middle East where there is significant investment and a less burdensome regulatory environment. Electric bicycles are the fastest growing segment in mobility today globally and our approach to that market with BeamBike™ is the most rapidly deployed and scalable approach I’m aware of. Our ability to deploy electric bikes and charging infrastructure without construction or electrical work and without a utility bill put us in a position to compete for recurring revenue in a market where others are burdened by the costs, resources and risks associated with those activities. The successful deployment of BeamBike™ both in the United States and Abu Dhabi, is proof that there’s a great market for these products as well. We had some orders move right in the third quarter, but we will execute on them in the near future and in the meantime, we will continue to focus heavily on all the new opportunities that we have as a result of the expansion of our product portfolio and geographic footprint. We did all of this while remaining debt free, reducing our operating costs, maintaining sufficient cash and operating capital, and improving almost every other aspect of our operations.”

Revenues

For the quarter ended September 30, 2025, the Company’s revenues were $5.8 million, a decrease of 50%, driven largely by unfavorable order timing, compared to $11.5 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2024. Revenues derived from non-government, commercial entities represented 82% of total revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to 48% for the three months ended September 30, 2024.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company’s revenues decreased 53% to $19.2 million compared to $40.9 million for the same period in 2024 driven largely by a reversal of the U.S. federal government’s commitment to electrify its fleets. Revenues to non-government, commercial entities grew to 67% of total revenues for the first nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to 31% for the same period in 2024. International customers grew to 39% of the revenues for the first nine months of 2025 compared to 20% for the same period in 2024.

Gross Profit

Gross margin for the quarter ended September 30, 2025, was -1% as the Company reported a gross loss of $28 thousand driven by the impacts of fixed overhead allocations on reduced reported sales, compared to a 11% gross margin or gross profit of $1.2 million in 2024. The gross profit for 2025 and 2024 includes a non-cash negative impact of $0.6 million for depreciation and $0.2 million for amortization of intangible assets resulting from the All-Cell acquisition. Without these non-cash expenses, gross profit for 2025 would be $0.7 million with a 13% gross margin and gross profit for 2024 would be $2.0 million with an 18% gross margin.

Gross margin for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, was 10% compared to a gross margin of 12% for the same period ended 2024. The nine months ended September 30, 2025 excluding non-cash items of depreciation and intangible amortization, was 22% compared to 18%, a 4-percentage point increase.

The Company has continued to recognize synergies and report positive gross margins from the Company's acquisitions. We expect the Company’s revenue to grow in the future and the Company’s fixed overhead absorption to improve.

Operating Expenses

Total operating expenses were $4.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to a credit of $50 thousand in 2024. The 2024 operating expenses included a $6.1 million-dollar non-cash change in fair value of contingent consideration for the Amiga acquisition. The third quarter 2025 operating expenses, excluding non-cash items, was $3.6 million compared to $5.1 million for the same period in 2024, an improvement of $1.5 million or 30-percentage points. The decrease in expenses year over year is mostly attributable to efficiencies driving a decrease of $0.6 million for salaries, benefits and related costs, $0.3 million decrease in sales and marketing costs and $0.3 million in other G&A.

Total operating expenses were $26.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to $11.6 million for the same period in 2024. The 2025 operating expenses include non-cash totaling $15.4 million which is mainly $10.8 million for the impairment of goodwill recorded in Q2 2025. The nine months ending September 2025, excluding non-cash items, is $11.4 million, an improvement of $1.9 million and 14-percentage points, over the same period in 2024.

Net Loss

Net Loss was $4.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $1.3 million Net Profit for the same period in 2024. The third quarter 2025 net loss excluding non-cash items was $2.8 million compared to $3.0 million for the same period in 2024, an improvement of $0.2 million or 7-percentage points.

Net Loss was $24.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $6.7 million for the same period in 2024. The 2025 Net Loss excluding non-cash items was $7.0 million compared to $5.8 million for the same period in 2024.

Cash

On September 30, 2025, the Company had cash of $3.3 million, compared to $4.6 million on December 31, 2024. The Company had working capital of $10.9 million on September 30, 2025.

The Company has historically met cash needs through a combination of debt and equity financing and more recently through increasing gross profit contributions. The Company’s cash requirements are generally for operating activities and acquisitions.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements, which are prepared in accordance with GAAP, the Company presents Non-GAAP financial measures, in this press release. The Company uses Non-GAAP in conjunction with GAAP measures as part of the Company’s overall assessment of the Company’s performance to evaluate the effectiveness of the Company’s business strategies and to communicate with the Company’s board of directors concerning the Company’s financial performance. The Company believes Non-GAAP is also helpful to investors, analysts and other interested parties because it can assist in providing a more consistent and comparable overview of the Company’s operations across the Company’s historical financial periods. Non-GAAP has limitations as an analytical tool. Therefore, you should not consider it in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Company’s results as reported under GAAP. Because of these limitations, you should consider Non-GAAP measurements alongside other financial performance measures, including attributable to other GAAP measures. In evaluating Non-GAAP measures you should be aware that in the future, the Company may incur expenses that are the same as, or similar to, some of the adjustments reflected in this press release. The Company’s presentation of Non-GAAP should not be construed to imply that the Company’s future results will be unaffected by the types of items excluded from the calculations of Non-GAAP measures. Non-GAAP is not presented in accordance with GAAP and the use of these terms vary from others in the Company’s industry.
