Insights

Financial Results Analyst

Q1 shows operational resilience but weaker revenue and wider losses; fresh capital and certifications reduce short-term liquidity risk.

Revenue fell to $13.2 million from $16.1 million, and gross margin narrowed to 28.6% from 32.4%, driving an operating loss of $2.2 million versus $1.2 million prior-year. The company reported a net loss of $2.6 million ($(0.15) per share) and adjusted EBITDA of ($1.7 million), indicating the business remains unprofitable on both GAAP and non-GAAP bases in the quarter.

Liquidity improved after the quarter through equity proceeds and a private placement totaling approximately $12.6 million net cash impact and access to a $16.0 million credit facility, which should provide working-capital runway near term. Key near-term watch items include order momentum in the current quarter, realization of targeted cost reductions, and compliance with credit-facility covenants; monitor cash and covenant status over the next 90 days.

Corporate Strategy & Market Access Expert

Progress on certifications, SaaS launch, and airline/customer wins expand markets, but top-line decline and losses limit immediate upside.

Certification wins—UL EE across material handling and UL 1973 for the G80-G2—plus graduation of SkyEMS 2.0 into production, create concrete access to new end markets and recurring-revenue potential from software. New and repeat commercial orders and expansion to eight North American airlines validate commercial traction across multiple verticals.

These commercial developments reduce market-entry friction and create optionality, yet they do not reverse the quarter’s revenue decline or negative margins. Monitor SaaS customer conversion and ARR ramp, order book conversion rates, and the timing/size of announced large orders within the next quarter to assess whether market access translates into sustained revenue growth and margin improvement.

VISTA, Calif., Nov. 13, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Flux Power Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: FLUX), a leading developer of advanced lithium-ion energy storage solutions and software-driven electrification for commercial and industrial equipment, today reported financial and operational results for the 2026 fiscal first quarter ended September 30, 2025.

First Quarter and Recent Business Highlights

• Received $2.4 million in repeat orders from a leading global food and beverage distribution company and a global industrial equipment manufacturer
• Secured a large order with another major airline customer, doubling the number of North American airlines served to eight from last year
• Graduated its software SkyEMS 2.0 SaaS platform from beta into production with multiple paying customers
• Received UL EE Listing across its material handling portfolio, opening up a new $1B total addressable market across the chemical, oil & gas, agricultural processing and pharmaceutical industries
• Received UL 1973 Listing for its G80-G2 lithium-ion solution, the company’s first 80V product for mobile battery energy storage systems (BESS) in the ground support equipment (GSE) industry, resulting in new market opportunities in AGVs and AMRs
• Regained compliance with Nasdaq’s continued listing requirements
• Raised $13.8 million in new capital, net of fees and underwriters’ discount
• Continued to execute on cost reductions in pursuit of profitability goals

CEO Commentary
“First quarter revenue reflected a temporary pause in customer orders due to the uncertainty surrounding the tariff situation and overall near-term caution on the macroeconomic environment,” said Krishna Vanka, Flux Power’s CEO. “That said, we have begun to see order activity materially rebound in the second quarter, highlighted by multi-million-dollar orders from significant material handling customers and a more recent large order from a major new airline customer. Flux Power now supplies eight major North American airline carriers. We also continue to receive strong interest in our SkyEMS SaaS software platform with the recent production release of version 2.0 to a growing number of paying customers.

“Additionally, we further strengthened our financial position and balance sheet through a recent public equity offering and a prior private placement during the quarter, which collectively raised $13.8 million in proceeds net of underwriter’s discount and offering related expenses. This additional capital will be used for working capital purposes, allowing us the flexibility to more rapidly execute on our operating, sales and product development initiatives as we pursue our ultimate goal of delivering sustained profitability in the quarters ahead. Our strong portfolio of advanced mobile energy storage products combined with our integrated software solutions provide Flux Power significantly expanded market opportunities with both new and existing customers that will be key to driving our future growth and expansion.”
