“Beam Global's intellectual property and product portfolio is demonstrably a platform for our expansion into the most vibrant and relevant industries of today.” said Desmond Wheatley, CEO of Beam Global. “We are providing energy generation and battery storage solutions for drones, AI data centers, robotics, autonomous vehicles, mobility, and smart cities solutions. Our product portfolio expansion has enabled us to generate revenues from a host of new products based upon our underlying patented technologies, creating opportunities that simply did not exist for us a couple of years ago. Our international expansion has massively increased our market presence and pool of prospective customers. Our European operations are now generating approximately half of our revenues and have contributed significantly to the 174% quarter-over-quarter growth that we've just delivered. We believe that we are creating significant pent-up demand in the Middle East so that when the disruption in that region comes to an end, we will have another opportunity to create significant growth for our company. We intend to continue to expand and leverage the platform that we are creating so that we become increasingly important to drones, autonomous vehicles, robots, and the vastly increased energy requirements coming from the rapid expansion of data centers. I believe that you will see us playing an increasingly significant role in these industries in the coming periods. While doing all of this, we remain laser focused on financial discipline, reducing our operating expenses by almost half a million dollars in the first half of this year. We are taking other significant cost-cutting measures, such as moving our manufacturing from San Diego, California, to Yuma, Arizona, where we will save millions of dollars in lease payments and also take advantage of many other benefits resulting from that move. I applaud the Beam team for their efforts, and I'm excited by the significant moats that we are creating around our technology portfolio as we advance our platform globally into the most exciting industries of our age.”
Q2 2026 Financial Summary
Revenues
Revenues for the second quarter of 2026 were $8.6 million, an increase of $1.5 million, or 21%, over $7.1 million in the second quarter of 2025 and an increase of 174% over the $3.1 million reported in the first quarter of 2026. Non-government commercial customers represented 62% of revenues and state and local government customers 38%, compared to 66% and 32%, respectively, a year earlier. Sales outside the United States were 47% of revenues in the quarter and 48% for the first half of 2026, up from 37% a year earlier, reflecting the continued integration of the Company’s European operations. Backlog was $5.4 million as of June 30, 2026.
Gross Profit
The Company reported gross profit of $1.5 million, a gross margin of 17.8%, for the second quarter of 2026, compared to $1.4 million, or 20.3%, in the second quarter of 2025. Both periods included $0.7 million of non-cash charges in cost of revenues — $0.5 million of depreciation and $0.2 million of amortization of intangible assets from the All-Cell acquisition. Excluding these items, adjusted Non-GAAP gross margin was 26.2% in the quarter, compared to 29.6% a year earlier.
The Company believes its margins will improve as sales volumes return, reducing the impact of fixed overhead allocations on each unit sale, and as ongoing cost reduction initiatives continue to take effect.
Operating Expenses
Operating expenses were $4.5 million for the second quarter of 2026, compared to $5.9 million a year earlier, which included a $1.4 million stock grant issued in June 2025; excluding that item, operating expenses were essentially flat year-over-year. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, operating expenses were $10.8 million compared to $22.0 million a year earlier, which included a $10.8 million non-cash goodwill impairment charge and the $1.4 million stock grant. First-half 2026 expenses include a $1.6 million increase in the provision for credit losses relating to a single customer balance reserved in accordance with Company policy, partially offset by reductions in salaries and benefits, facilities, and other general and administrative expenses. The Company maintains a positive relationship with that customer and continues to work toward collecting the outstanding balance and creating new revenue opportunities.
Net Loss
The Company reported a net loss of $3.1 million, or $(0.14) per share, for the second quarter of 2026, compared to $4.3 million, or $(0.28) per share, a year earlier. The quarter’s net loss includes $1.1 million in non-cash charges.
Management believes the improvement in both GAAP and Non-GAAP results, together with a 174% increase in revenue over the prior quarter, reflects the Company's expanded opportunities created through geographic and product portfolio expansion, continued cost reduction initiatives, disciplined cost structure and the largely fixed nature of its non-cash charges, and is indicative of meaningful operating leverage as revenue increases.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement our condensed consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP, Beam Global presents certain non-GAAP financial measures, in this press release. These measures exclude non-cash items including provisions for credit losses, stock-based compensation, depreciation and amortization, warrant amortization, and impairment of goodwill. We use Non-GAAP measures in conjunction with GAAP measures as part of our overall assessment of our performance to evaluate the effectiveness of our business strategies and to communicate with our board of directors concerning our financial performance. We believe Non-GAAP measures are also helpful to investors, analysts and other interested parties because they can assist in providing a more consistent and comparable overview of our operations across our historical financial periods. Non-GAAP Net Loss has limitations as an analytical tool. Therefore, you should not consider it in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Because of these limitations, you should consider Non-GAAP Net Loss alongside other financial performance measures, including Net Loss attributable to other GAAP measures. In evaluating Non-GAAP Net Loss you should be aware that in the future we may incur expenses that are the same as, or similar to, some of the adjustments reflected in this press release. Our presentation of Non-GAAP Net Loss should not be construed to imply that our future results will be unaffected by the types of items excluded from the calculations of Non-GAAP Net Loss. Non-GAAP Net Loss is not presented in accordance with GAAP and the use of these terms varies from others in our industry. A reconciliation of this non-GAAP measure has been provided in the financial statement tables included within this press release, and investors are encouraged to review this reconciliation.
