File size reduction vs baseline 31% / 97% CABR vs baseline encodes and uncompressed data in dSPACE tests
Depth error reduction 30.7% / 16.0% Depth estimation error reductions on vulnerable road users and all objects
Content-Adaptive Bitrate technology (CABR) technical
"Beamr’s Content-Adaptive Bitrate technology (CABR) delivered 31% file size reduction"
Content-adaptive bitrate technology (CABR) is a way of delivering video that changes the stream’s quality in real time based on how complex each scene is and the viewer’s connection, so simple scenes use less data and busy scenes get higher detail. Like a car shifting gears for hills versus flat roads, it helps platforms give smoother playback and better picture without wasting bandwidth, which can lower delivery costs and reduce viewer churn—key factors for investors evaluating streaming efficiency and profitability.
Proofs of Concept (PoCs) financial
"Currently, we have 10 active Proofs of Concept (PoCs)."
A proof of concept (PoC) is a small-scale demonstration or pilot that shows whether a technology, product, process, or idea can work in practice, usually under controlled or limited conditions. For investors it matters because a successful PoC reduces uncertainty about technical feasibility and early market fit—think of it as a test-drive that helps decide whether to commit more money, time, or resources and can influence a company’s timeline, funding needs, and perceived value.
hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) testing technical
"including video data simulation and hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) testing."
Hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) testing is a development and validation method where real physical components are connected to a simulated environment that mimics the rest of the system, allowing engineers to test how the hardware behaves under realistic conditions without building the full product. For investors it matters because HIL helps find design faults early, reduces costly field failures, speeds development and supports regulatory approval, which can lower project risk and preserve value — like test-driving an actual engine while the rest of the car is a simulator.
video-language models (VLMs) technical
"where video-language models (VLMs) enable scalable semantic curation"
Video-language models (VLMs) are artificial intelligence systems that watch video and convert what they see into meaningful text or use text to describe, search, or generate video content — like a translator that turns moving images into searchable words and back again. Investors care because VLMs can automate content tagging, improve ad targeting, speed regulatory oversight, and create new product lines, which can lower costs, boost revenue, or change competitive dynamics in media and tech businesses.
forward-looking statements regulatory
"This press release contains “forward-looking statements” that are subject to substantial risks"
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.

Beamr Issues Q1-2026 CEO Letter to Shareholders: Advancing Towards Strategic Account Agreements

 

Herzliya, Israel, May 27, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Beamr Imaging Ltd. (NASDAQ: BMR), a leader in video optimization technology and solutions, today issued a Letter to Shareholders from Sharon Carmel, Chief Executive Officer.

 

Dear Shareholders:

 

I am pleased to share Beamr’s Q1-2026 updates and achievements. Building on the strategy we outlined in the beginning of the year, we delivered concrete progress this quarter across our main markets in AI video - media and entertainment (M&E) and autonomous vehicles (AV). We are seeing encouraging momentum through customer renewals and expanding engagement with prospective customers, which we hope will advance into strategic account agreements in the coming months.

 

Since the beginning of 2026 we have participated in five industry conferences and events, holding more than 300 meetings with customers, prospects, and partners, demonstrating our technology and starting new engagements. Our major activities in the AV and broader AI video markets included joint workflows with VAST Data at NVIDIA GTC and with dSPACE at their User Conference - both demonstrating Beamr's content-adaptive compression within their products and solutions. The demonstration with dSPACE - a leading provider of solutions for the development of connected, autonomous, and electrically powered vehicles - validated, for the first time, compression for AV video data in the dSPACE RTMaps ecosystem while preserving machine learning (ML) model accuracy and reducing the volume of video data entering AV pipelines. Beamr and dSPACE plan to extend ML-safe compression testing to additional stages, including video data simulation and hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) testing. The demonstration with VAST Data showcased video solutions powered by GPU-accelerated compression to reduce file sizes while delivering ML-safe results during data ingestion. These collaborations, together with our broader ecosystem partnerships with NVIDIA and AWS, place Beamr's offering inside the platforms used by AI video teams.

 

 

 

As our commercial pipeline advances, we are working towards converting two to three accounts across AV, AI, and M&E into potential “lighthouse” accounts in the coming months. These accounts may include direct customers, OEMs, and distribution partners whose adoption of Beamr unlocks broader market reach. We believe these potential lighthouse accounts, if realized, could serve to meaningfully validate our approach, accelerate broader market adoption, and expand our addressable footprint well beyond the initial deployment scope.

 

In the past months, we have continued to expand our AV commercial pipeline, having engaged with over a dozen top tier AV companies since the launch of our solution about a year ago. Currently, we have 10 active Proofs of Concept (PoCs). AV sales cycles are typically long, and our pipeline depth reflects sustained effort across these engagements.

 

AV and AI video teams engaging with our technology are seeing the value of ML-safe compression at scale. As a result, we are now extending running PoCs to include comprehensive analysis of the customers’ video data pipelines, while productizing this analysis as part of our offering. This will enable us to reach monetization much earlier in the commercial funnel.

 

The composition of our pipeline, and the caliber of organizations engaging with us - handling petabyte-scale datasets and facing critical challenges in storage, networking, and infrastructure - supports our confidence in the trajectory of our business.

 

Advancing the ML-Safe Video Data Stack for AV and Physical AI

 

NVIDIA GTC 2026

 

In March 2026, Beamr presented at NVIDIA GTC in San Jose, debuting a joint demonstration with VAST Data, the AI Operating System company. The demonstration targeted organizations managing massive video datasets in AV, media and entertainment, and other industries, where video-language models (VLMs) enable scalable semantic curation, with efficient search, filtering, and prioritization of training data across petabyte-scale datasets. During GTC, Beamr’s team engaged in 170 face-to-face meetings with customers, prospects, and partners.

dSPACE User Conference

 

In April 2026, Beamr and dSPACE, a leading provider of solutions for the development of connected, autonomous, and electrically powered vehicles, announced the first joint validation of compression for AV video data inside the dSPACE RTMaps ecosystem. The demonstration presented at dSPACE User Conference showed testing on real-world sequences where Beamr’s Content-Adaptive Bitrate technology (CABR) delivered 31% file size reduction compared to baseline encodes, and 97% reduction relative to uncompressed data, both while preserving ML model accuracy.

 

Beamr’s technology for robust ML

 

In May 2026, we published research demonstrating that machine vision models trained on compressed video are more robust than models trained on uncompressed data. The fine-tuned state-of-the-art depth model showed a 30.7% reduction in depth estimation error on vulnerable road users, including pedestrians and motorcyclists, and a 16.0% aggregate reduction for all object classes - while CABR reduced file sizes by 35.2%. We are advancing this research, broadening the evidence base that compression can strengthen, not just preserve, AI model performance.

 

Beamr presented the new findings together with its AV video data stack at the Smart Mobility Summit. As we extend this research to additional datasets and models, Beamr’s content-adaptive compression is taking on an additional role for AI pipelines at scale, combining efficiency with contribution to model robustness and performance.

 

Expanding our Leadership in Media and Entertainment

 

JioHotstar - one of the world’s largest streaming platforms

 

In February 2026, Beamr announced that JioHotstar renewed its contract with Beamr. JioHotstar uses Beamr's CABR technology to deliver a 30%-50% reduction in storage and bandwidth costs, while preserving the viewing experience its 450 million subscribers expect. Beamr’s solution is integrated across the 300,000 hours of content catalog, including premium live sports and movies.

 

In the past several months, Beamr also renewed agreements with most of our other major M&E customers, several of which have worked with Beamr over multiple years. These renewals reflect the continued demand for Beamr's video optimization for the leading operations in the M&E sector.

Beamr VISTA Launch and NAB Show 2026

 

In February 2026, Beamr presented to M&E engineers and leaders at the ACM Mile High Video 2026 conference a validation framework that verifies how compressed and AI-enhanced video preserves quality as human viewers perceive it. The framework spans real-time and cost-effective AI quality enhancement integrating NVIDIA RTX Video Super Resolution; CABR GPU-accelerated video compression; and quality verification tools for human viewers.

 

Building on that, in April 2026, Beamr launched VISTA, a managed platform for subjective video quality testing at scale. The launch was held at NAB Show in Las Vegas, a flagship event for the M&E industry, and gained significant traction including 80 face-to-face meetings and coverage in industry media.

 

VISTA emerged from Beamr’s own need to validate CABR performance and addresses a gap many video teams face, by replacing traditional subjective lab tests that take weeks with an automated workflow that delivers clear go/no-go verdicts within days, with statistical confidence. Through VISTA, we are building the quality-validation layer of our AI video infrastructure stack.

 

Financial Highlights*

 

During the three-month period ended March 31, 2026, we generated approximately $0.63 million in revenue, essentially in-line with the revenues the company recorded in the three months ended March 31, 2025. Our balance sheet remains solid with $9.6 million of cash and deposits, as of March 31, 2026.

 

Our efforts over the past few months have expanded Beamr’s strategic relationships with industry leading enterprises, strengthened our commercial foundation, and advanced integration into production AI video workflows. We remain focused on disciplined execution, expanding production deployments, and converting strategic engagement into long-term commercial agreements through 2026 and beyond.

 

Respectfully,

 

Sharon Carmel

Chief Executive Officer, Beamr Imaging Ltd.
