Historical Context
| Date | Event | Sentiment | Move | Catalyst |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Dec 16 | AI partnership deal | Positive | -4.6% | Six-figure Foretell Ai LLM infrastructure contract with NYC higher-education client. |
| Nov 13 | Earnings release | Negative | -6.5% | Q1 FY26 revenue down 43% YoY with wider adjusted EBITDA loss despite strong margins. |
| Nov 07 | Earnings date notice | Neutral | +0.8% | Announcement of timing and access details for upcoming Q1 FY26 results call. |
| Oct 27 | BLI IPO initiative | Positive | +5.7% | Launch of IPO/spin-off process for Brightline Interactive with Lucid engagement. |
| Sep 30 | Full-year earnings | Positive | -9.4% | FY25 revenue growth, near break-even cash flow, and plan to spin off BLI. |
News reactions have been mixed: strategic and spin-off updates sometimes sold off despite positive framing, while clearly negative earnings generally saw aligned declines.
Over the past few months, Glimpse reported FY25 revenue of $10.5M with improved cash flow and announced plans to spin off Brightline Interactive. Subsequent earnings showed Q1 FY26 revenue of $1.40M, down 43% YoY, and the IPO/spin-off process for BLI advanced with Lucid Capital Markets. A December Foretell Ai LLM contract highlighted growing immersive demand. Today’s 2026 strategic letter extends these themes around BLI separation, Foretell Ai traction, and capital flexibility.
Regulatory & Risk Context
An effective S-3 shelf filed on 2025-11-21 allows Glimpse to issue up to $100,000,000 in various securities, including an ATM program of up to $3,502,910 in common stock. Usage count is 0, indicating no takedowns yet, but the facility provides flexibility to raise capital for working capital and corporate purposes.
Market Pulse Summary
The stock moved +7.8% in the session following this news. A strong positive reaction aligns with management’s emphasis on unlocking value via a Brightline Interactive spin-out and growing Foretell Ai traction. Shares at $1.02 still sit well below the $3.07 52-week high, and a $100,000,000 shelf with a $3,502,910 ATM provides future financing optionality. Past divergence on good news suggests investors should monitor follow-through and any eventual shelf usage.

NEW YORK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / January 7, 2026 / The Glimpse Group, Inc. ("Glimpse") (NASDAQ:VRAR), a diversified Immersive Technology platform company providing enterprise-focused Immersive Technology, Spatial Computing and Artificial Intelligence ("AI") driven software and services, provided a strategic update as we begin calendar year 2026 ("CY '26").
Business Commentary by President & CEO Lyron Bentovim
Strategic Update:
For CY '26, we are focused on the following key strategic items, all aimed at unlocking shareholder value - which we strongly believe is not reflected in the Company's current equity valuation:
Brightline Interactive ("BLI") Spinout/IPO:
BLI's solutions, via its SpatialCore software platform, enable real-time operational orchestration and training of digital twins, robotics, drones and autonomous systems, primarily in the Defense Tech/AI software segment.
As previously discussed, we are actively in the process of potentially IPOing BLI as its own independent, Nasdaq listed company - a PURE PLAY, standalone, well capitalized provider of Physical AI, Spatial Computing, Cloud-based, Operational Simulation Middleware to the Department of War ("DoW") and Big Data enterprises.
We engaged Lucid Capital Markets as our investment banking partner and have recently filed the initial registration documents with the regulatory bodies.
Our goal is to complete the potential BLI IPO in the first half of CY '26 and we believe that we are on track to meet this goal (subject to SEC review process timing and market conditions). However, while we continue to be on track, there is no guarantee that an IPO of BLI will come to fruition.
As such, in parallel to the BLI IPO path, we are also exploring multiple private company spin-out alternatives for BLI. These include active discussions with various strategic players and investors in the Defense Tech/AI software segment.
We are committed to exploring all paths that could maximize the opportunity for BLI to succeed while creating value for Glimpse shareholders.
Immersive Technologies:
Our core Immersive businesses are increasingly driven by traction in our Foretell Ai (AI roleplay Immersive simulation) software product.
Foretell Ai provides intelligent, conversational simulations in Immersive environments, and has been gaining traction in both the Education and Healthcare segments. While early in its commercialization, the level of Enterprise interest in Foretell Ai and the accelerating pace of new licenses and annual license renewals is encouraging. Our goal is for Foretell Ai to eventually become a foundational base for Glimpse's Immersive revenues.
As an example, we recently entered into a contract with a NYC based higher education institution for the design, deployment and integration of a local Large Language Model ("LLM") infrastructure, specifically configured to run Foretell AI in Immersive environments that will be utilized across a variety of campus and community systems and programs.
Glimpse Add-Ons:
Once we divest BLI and as we continue to grow our Immersive business, we will be well positioned to explore strategic, non-organic transactions that could enhance our current offerings, open up new markets and potentially create significant value for our shareholders.
There is a significant universe of exciting private technology companies, from early stage to well established, that may be interested in joining Glimpse and benefiting from our Nasdaq listed status in order to create liquidity and value for their shareholders in an accelerated manner.
We are reviewing such potential alternatives and may look to transact on these in CY '26 once we have successfully spun-out BLI.
Capital:
Glimpse's current cash balance is expected to be sufficient for the next 12 months+.
We continue to maintain a healthy and clean capital structure, with no debt, no converts, no prefs or material obligations.
The Company recently put in place an S3 and ATM facility. There is no intent to utilize these in the foreseeable future and not at the current valuation. However, these are important and cost-effective tools for a publicly traded company to have in place in case potential opportunities arise.
Thank you for your interest and support.
I wish you all a successful and healthy 2026!
