RADCOM Reports Third Quarter 2026 Results

The authorized buyback remains unused, with repurchases expected after the earnings-related blackout at management's discretion.

Sentiment and the balance of points

Rhea-AI Sentiment reads the wording of the document, how positive or negative its language is on a 1 to 5 scale. The balance of points shown with the takes weighs what the document actually discloses, so the two can disagree, for example when a trial that missed its main goal is described in upbeat language.

RADCOM (Nasdaq: RDCM) reported third-quarter 2026 revenue of $14.0 million, alongside a return to quarterly non-GAAP operating profitability. Revenue rose 19.4% sequentially but fell 23.6% year over year. GAAP operating loss was $893,000 versus operating income of $2.415 million a year earlier. GAAP diluted earnings fell to $0.03 from $0.21; non-GAAP diluted earnings declined to $0.11 from $0.29.

Positive quarterly cash flow was $1.7 million, with cash, equivalents and short-term deposits reaching $111.4 million and no debt. Nine-month revenue declined 15.7% to $44.4 million. RADCOM reaffirmed its revised 2026 revenue outlook of $57–$63 million. It added VNPT and CETIN Networks as customers, including a multi-year CETIN contract. The company sees signs that some deployments delayed in 2026 will begin moving forward in early 2027.

How this balance works

Rhea-AI gives every point it takes from this document a weight. Minor counts 1, Moderate 3 and Major 9, so one Major point outweighs several Minor ones. The bar adds up the weights on each side, and when neither side holds more than 65% of the total the balance reads Mixed.

It reads the document as published, with the same rules for every company, and it does not look at what the market expected or at how the stock traded, so a point can be objectively good on a day the stock falls.

Rhea-AI Sentiment measures something else, the tone of the wording.

News Explained

The board authorized up to $20 million of share repurchases, but the company reported none in the third quarter; it expects purchases to begin after the earnings blackout ends, at management’s discretion, so the release reports authorization, not completed repurchases.

Key Terms

non-gaap, request for proposal (rfp), radio access network (ran), share repurchase program
4 terms
non-gaap financial
"returned to non-GAAP operating profitability"
Non-GAAP refers to financial measures that companies use to show their earnings or performance without including certain expenses or income that are often added back to give a different picture. It matters because it can make a company's results look better or more favorable, but it may also hide important costs, so investors need to look at both GAAP (official rules) and non-GAAP numbers to get a full understanding.
View in glossary
request for proposal (rfp) financial
"Following a competitive request for proposal (RFP) process"
A request for proposal (RFP) is a formal document an organization issues when it wants outside firms to compete to provide a specific product, service, or project, describing needs, evaluation criteria, and timelines. For investors it matters because RFPs reveal where future revenue or costs may come from—winning a bid can mean new contracts and growth, while the pool of competitors and requirements can affect profit margins and delivery risk, much like homeowners soliciting multiple contractor quotes before a big renovation.
radio access network (ran) technical
"from the radio access network (RAN) to the core"
A radio access network (RAN) is the collection of antennas, base stations and related equipment that connects mobile devices to the broader phone and internet network, acting like a bridge and traffic controller for wireless signals. It matters to investors because RAN design and upgrades determine how fast and reliably networks deliver services, influence a carrier’s costs and rollout speed for new technologies (like 5G), and shape which vendors or operators gain revenue and competitive advantage.
share repurchase program financial
"authorized a share repurchase program of up to $20 million"
A share repurchase program is when a company buys back its own shares from the marketplace. This reduces the total number of shares available, which can increase the value of each remaining share and signal confidence in the company's prospects. For investors, it often suggests that the company believes its stock is undervalued or that it has extra cash to return to shareholders.

Increased revenue 19.4% sequentially, returned to quarterly non-GAAP operating income, and maintained positive cash flow

TEL AVIV, Israel, Nov. 11, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- RADCOM Ltd. (Nasdaq: RDCM) announced today its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2026.

Third-quarter revenues were $14.0 million, up 19.4% sequentially and down 23.6% year over year. Although RADCOM recorded a GAAP operating loss, it returned to non-GAAP operating profitability. RADCOM also generated $1.7 million in positive cash flow and ended the quarter with $111.4 million in cash, cash equivalents, and short-term bank deposits and no debt, up from $109.7 million as of June 30, 2026.

"We returned to non-GAAP operating profitability this quarter and added two new customers, VNPT and CETIN Networks, each replacing the incumbent vendor through a competitive process," said Benny Eppstein, RADCOM's Chief Executive Officer. "Our solutions remain integral to how customers manage their networks and end-user service quality, and our customer relationships remain strong. Operators continue to invest in their networks, and we are working closely with them on their deployment plans. Based on those discussions, we see positive signs that some deployments delayed in 2026 will begin to move forward in early 2027."

"We are reaffirming our revised full-year outlook," Eppstein continued. "With $111.4 million in cash and no debt, we are investing in RADCOM ACE and our agentic AI roadmap to drive growth. We expect to begin repurchasing shares after the current earnings-related blackout period ends, at management's discretion. Looking ahead, we remain open to partnerships and targeted acquisitions that expand our solution portfolio, enhance customer value, and deliver greater returns to stakeholders. Together, these steps reflect our confidence in the business and our commitment to building long-term value for our shareholders."
