PHOENIX, April 07, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- QuoteMedia, Inc. (OTCQB: QMCI), a leading provider of financial data solutions, today announced its fiscal year 2025 results, highlighted by an 8% increase in annual revenue to $20.3 million. The company concluded the year with significant momentum, reporting a 14% revenue jump in Q4 compared to the previous year.

Fiscal 2025 Financial Highlights (vs Fiscal 2024 unless otherwise noted):

  • Annual Revenue: $20,253,917, up 1,511,665 (8%) from 2024.
  • Q4 Revenue: $5,345,795, up $654,534 (14%) from Q4 2024.
  • Adjusted EBITDA(1): $1,018,485 compared to $1,778,478 in 2024, a decrease of $759,993.
  • Net Loss: $2,317,424 compared to a net loss of $1,327,037 in 2024, an increase of $990,387.

Management Commentary

“There are many positives to report in this year’s results,” said Robert J. Thompson, Chairman of the Board at QuoteMedia. “We delivered solid revenue growth, with an 8% increase year over year and a 14% rise in Q4 compared to the same period in 2024. We also finalized several key new contracts that are expected to begin contributing to revenue in 2026 and beyond. In addition, we are in late-stage discussions regarding further large-scale deployments, which we believe will support our continued growth.”

Despite these strong achievements, earnings and EBITDA declined significantly in 2025, primarily due to the accounting treatment of capitalized development costs:

  • A smaller proportion of development costs was capitalized compared to prior years, resulting in a higher level of immediate expense recognition.
  • As capitalized development costs are amortized over a three-year period, amortization expense remained elevated due to investments made in prior periods, temporarily reducing net income.
  • While these factors negatively impacted reported earnings and EBITDA, they had no effect on cash flow.

We expect gross margin, EBITDA, and overall profitability to continue improving in future quarters as our revenue grows, and the impact of higher amortization expenses related to prior period investments diminish.

Outlook

“We closed out 2025 on a strong note and anticipate that momentum will carry into 2026,” Thompson added. “Our sales pipeline remains solid, and we’re proud of our team’s ongoing success in winning and executing high-value contracts.”

Note 1 on Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We believe that Adjusted EBITDA, as a non-GAAP pro forma financial measure, provides meaningful information to investors in terms of enhancing their understanding of our operating performance and results, as it allows investors to more easily compare our financial performance on a consistent basis compared to the prior year periods. This non-GAAP financial measure also corresponds with the way we expect investment analysts to evaluate and compare our results. Any non-GAAP pro forma financial measures should be considered only as supplements to, and not as substitutes for or in isolation from, or superior to, our other measures of financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP, such as net income attributable to QuoteMedia, Inc.

We define and calculate Adjusted EBITDA as net income attributable to QuoteMedia, Inc., plus: 1) depreciation and amortization, 2) stock compensation expense, 3) interest expense, 4) foreign exchange loss (or minus a foreign exchange gain), and 5) income tax expense. We disclose Adjusted EBITDA because we believe it is a useful metric by which to compare the performance of our business from period to period. We understand that measures similar to Adjusted EBITDA are broadly used by analysts, rating agencies, investors and financial institutions in assessing our performance. Accordingly, we believe that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors. The table below provides a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net income attributable to QuoteMedia, Inc., the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.
