Insights

Revenue was stable while losses and cash burn narrowed modestly.

Bridgeline’s Q2 2026 revenue was essentially flat year over year at $3,917K, but the mix stayed subscription-heavy, which generally supports more predictable recurring revenue. Management emphasized record new customer wins and expanding sales to existing HawkSearch customers, underscoring demand for its AI-powered marketing tools.

Cost discipline is evident: operating expenses declined, shrinking the loss from operations to $426K and net loss to $432K. Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA improved to a near breakeven loss of $43K in the quarter and turned positive $79K for the first six months, though the company still reports GAAP losses.

On the balance sheet, cash and cash equivalents were $1,373K as of March 31, 2026, with total liabilities of $6,089K and stockholders’ equity of $9,235K. Deferred revenue of $2,829K suggests a base of contracted business, but future performance will depend on sustaining new wins and retaining core subscription customers.

Adjusted EBITDA financial
"This press release contains references to Adjusted EBITDA, a Non-GAAP financial measure."
Adjusted EBITDA is a way companies measure how much money they make from their core operations, like running a business, by removing certain costs or income that aren’t part of regular business activities. It helps investors see how well a company is doing without distractions from unusual expenses or gains, making it easier to compare companies or track performance over time.
Non-GAAP financial measure financial
"Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, stock-based compensation expense..."
A non-GAAP financial measure is a way companies present their financial results that excludes certain expenses or income to show how they believe their core business is performing. It matters because it can give a clearer picture of how the company is really doing, but it can also be used to make results look better than they actually are.
Net Revenue Retention financial
"Net Revenue Retention (“NRR”) is measured as the current period trailing twelve months Monthly Recurring Revenue (“MRR”)..."
Net revenue retention measures how much revenue a company keeps from its existing customers over a set period after accounting for customers who leave, reductions in spending, and any increases from upsells or cross-sells. For investors it shows whether a company can grow sales from the customers it already has—like checking whether a store is making more or less money from its regular shoppers—which signals business health and future revenue durability.
warrant liabilities financial
"Change in fair value of warrant liabilities | | | 5 | | | | 25 |"
Warrant liabilities are the financial obligations a company records when it grants warrants—special rights allowing someone to buy shares at a set price in the future. If the warrants are expected to be exercised, they are treated as a liability because the company might need to deliver shares or cash later. This matters to investors because it affects the company’s reported financial health and the potential dilution of existing shares.
forward-looking statements regulatory
"All statements included in this press release, other than statements or characterizations of historical fact, are forward-looking statements."
Forward-looking statements are predictions or plans that companies share about what they expect to happen in the future, like estimating sales or profits. They matter because they help investors understand a company's outlook, but since they are based on guesses and assumptions, they can sometimes be wrong.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release contains references to Adjusted EBITDA, a Non-GAAP financial measure.

 

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, stock-based compensation expense, impairment of goodwill and intangible assets, non-cash warrant related income/expense, changes in fair value of contingent consideration, restructuring and acquisition-related costs, amortization of debt discounts, preferred stock dividends and any related tax effects. Bridgeline uses Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental measure of our performance that is not required by, or presented in accordance with, accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP").

 

Bridgeline's management does not consider Non-GAAP measures in isolation or as an alternative to financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. The principal limitation of Non-GAAP financial measures is that they exclude significant expenses and income that are required by GAAP to be recorded in the Company's financial statements. In addition, they are subject to inherent limitations as they reflect the exercise of judgments by management about which expenses and income are excluded or included in determining these Non-GAAP financial measures. To compensate for these limitations, Bridgeline management presents Non-GAAP financial measures in connection with GAAP results. Bridgeline urges investors to review the reconciliation of its Non-GAAP financial measure to the comparable GAAP financial measure, which is included in this press release, and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate Bridgeline's financial performance.

 

Our definition of Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA may differ from and therefore may not be comparable with similarly titled measures used by other companies, thereby limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure. As a result of the limitations that Adjusted EBITDA has as an analytical tool, investors should not consider it in isolation, or as a substitute for analysis of our operating results as reported under GAAP.

 

 

Other Terms

Core Product revenue includes all subscription license and services revenue from HawkSearch, WooRank licenses for HawkSearch customers, and AccessiBe.

 

Net Revenue Retention (“NRR”) is measured as the current period trailing twelve months Monthly Recurring Revenue (“MRR”), including Cross Sales and Net Renewal (expansion less contraction) MRR, all divided by trailing twelve months MRR for the previous period trailing twelve months.
