Form Type
6-K
ICTS International N.V. reported higher revenue but a larger loss for the six months ended June 30, 2025. Revenue rose to $255.4 million from $233.6 million a year earlier, driven mainly by growth in airport security and other aviation services in Germany and Spain. However, cost of revenue climbed to $228.0 million, compressing gross profit to $27.4 million from $34.3 million, as labor-intensive contracts, overtime, sickness rates and mix effects weighed on margins, and the higher-margin authentication technology segment saw lower revenue.
Operating expenses eased slightly to $37.9 million, but the company swung to a deeper operating loss of $10.5 million, with net loss widening to $9.4 million, or $0.22 per share, versus a $4.3 million loss, or $0.13 per share, in 2024. The balance sheet shows $36.4 million in cash and cash equivalents and total assets of $188.4 million, alongside financial institutions payable of $14.4 million and Dutch tax deferrals being repaid in installments.
Despite a larger shareholders’ deficit of $14.2 million, the company continues to secure funding through credit lines and factoring facilities in the U.S. and Europe. After period end, it was notified it will continue providing security services at Schiphol Airport through a new joint venture with up to a ten-year term starting in 2026, which reinforces its core airport security franchise.
Positive
- None.
Negative
- None.
Insights

In December 2023, an agreement with the same commercial bank was signed, to provide loans up to €1,500 ($1,758 as of June 30, 2025). These loans can be used only for paying different taxes to the Spanish tax authorities. The interest rate is determined at the time the loans are taken. During the periods ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 the loans taken ranged between €500 and €1,500 ($586 and $1,758 as of June 30, 2025) with interest rates between 4.25 % and 5.25 % and for periods of three to six months.

The amounts can be used only for payroll related costs in Germany. The company is being charged fees until the collection date equal to Euribor plus 3.0 %. The Company was also subject to a 1.5 % fee at the signing date of the agreement.

* Maximum availability is subject to terms and conditions according to the agreements with the different financial institutions.
** Weighted average
In March 2024 the Company signed a non-recourse factoring agreement with a commercial bank under which it factors certain accounts receivable related to invoices issued to a specific customer up to €3,000 ($3,517 as of June 30, 2025). The maximum amount provided by the bank cannot exceed 75 % of the monthly invoice for that customer. The agreement was in place until April 2025. In March 2025 the agreement was extended for one year and the facility was increased up to €4,000 ($4,689 as of June 30, 2025). Under the terms of this agreement, the factor assumes all rewards and credit risks associated with the purchased receivables and the Company has no further obligation related to their collection. Accordingly, the factored receivables are derecognized from the Company’s balance sheet once the funds are received by the Company. The arrangement does not create any liability and therefore no loan or financing obligation is recorded in the Company’s financial statements. The Company is also subject to a 0.2 % fee for every factored invoice issued under the agreement and with interest equal Euribor plus 0.60 % (2.58 % as of June 30, 2025) until the date the payment is anticipated.

NOTE 9 – REDEEMABLE NON-CONTROLLING INTERESTS
On July 3, 2019, AU10TIX entered into a Series A Preferred Subscription Agreement (the “Agreement”) with TPG Lux 2018 SC I, S.a.r.l (“TPG”), according to which AU10TIX issued 3,000,000 Series A Preferred Shares (“Series A Shares”) to TPG for a subscription price of US$60,000 in cash representing approximately 24 % of the outstanding share capital of AU10TIX and 23.077 % of the fully-diluted share capital of AU10TIX. Transaction costs totaled $4,540 and were deducted from the redeemable non-controlling interests balance.
On November 7, 2019, AU10TIX entered into a Series A and Series A-1 Preferred Subscription Agreement with Oak HC/FT Partners II, L.P. (“Oak”), according to which AU10TIX issued 1,000,000 Series A Preferred Shares and 23,622 Series A-1 Preferred Shares (“Series A-1 Shares” and together with Series A Shares – “the Preferred Shares”) to Oak for a subscription price of US$20,000 in cash representing approximately 7.401 % of the outstanding share capital of AU10TIX and 7.143 % of the fully-diluted share capital of AU10TIX. For accounting purposes, the investment was allocated to the Series A and Series A-1 Preferred Shares on a relative fair value basis of $19,537 and $461 , respectively. Transaction costs totaled $1,513 and were deducted from the respective investment amounts.
Following the Oak investment, on November 7, 2019, TPG subscribed for 307,087 Series A-1 Shares at nominal value (US$0.001 per share) (“Bonus Issue Series A-1 Shares”) in order to preserve its 23.077 % ownership interest in the fully diluted share capital of AU10TIX.
On June 28, 2021, Oak purchased 755,906 AU10TIX Series A Preferred shares from TPG and GF purchased 1,511,811 AU10TIX Series A Preferred Shares from TPG. In connection with such purchases, all outstanding AU10TIX’s Series A Preferred Shares and Series A-1 Preferred Shares were re-designated as New Series A Preferred Shares and the Ordinary Shares owned by ICTS were re-designated as Class B Ordinary Shares, as described below.
Following the modification and extinguishment of the Preferred Shares and the reclassification of the Series A-1 Shares in 2021, the Company adjusted the carrying value of the redeemable non-controlling interests by $9,057 , with a corresponding decrease to additional paid-in capital and non-controlling interests in the amounts of $10,102 and $1,045 , respectively. Additionally, the carrying value of the Series A-1 Shares, which were previously presented among non-controlling interests, were reclassified to redeemable non-controlling interests due to their Exit Rights described below and initially recognized at their fair value, following their re-designation as New Series A Preferred Shares.
Following the completion of the sales and purchases contemplated on June 28, 2021: (i) ICTS owned 68.69 % of the outstanding share capital of AU10TIX in the form of Class B Ordinary Shares; (ii) Oak owned 12.87 % of the outstanding share capital of AU10TIX in the form of New Series A Preferred Shares; (iii) GF owned 10.93 % of the outstanding share capital of AU10TIX in the form of New Series A Preferred Shares; and (iv) TPG owned 7.51 % of the outstanding share capital of AU10TIX in the form of New Series A Preferred Shares. In addition, AU10TIX may issue up to 500,000 Class A Ordinary Shares under its existing employee stock option plan, which was increased in February 2023 up to 1,000,000 Class A Ordinary Shares.

In addition, AU10TIX may issue up to 500,000 Class A Ordinary Shares under its existing employee stock option plan. In February 2023, the option plan was increased to up to 1,000,000 Class A Ordinary Shares. In April 2024, 241,000 and in July 2025 additional 258,125 options were exercised into shares.
In consideration of the benefits to Oak increasing its shareholding and GF becoming a shareholder, AU10TIX provided certain customary warranties to Oak and GF concerning AU10TIX and its business. In addition, AU10TIX agreed to be primarily liable to Oak and GF for any breaches by TPG of its customary fundamental warranties given to Oak and GF (including that TPG owns AU10TIX Series A Preferred Shares being sold to Oak and GF); provided, that, TPG has agreed to indemnify and hold AU10TIX harmless for any losses incurred by AU10TIX in relation to such fundamental warranties given by TPG.
The Preferred Shares Rights
The SHA and the Articles (as amended by the Deed of Amendment) provide for the following material matters in respect of the rights attaching to the New Series A Preferred Shares and the Ordinary Shares and the ongoing governance of AU10TIX:
General: The New Series A Preferred Shares are entitled to one vote per share and rank equally with the Ordinary Shares in regards to dividends. The Ordinary Shares are divided into two classes: Class A Ordinary Shares and Class B Ordinary Shares, which rank equally as to dividends. The Class A Ordinary Shares are entitled to one vote per share. The Class B Ordinary Shares are entitled to three votes per share and may only be held by ICTS and its permitted transferees.
Liquidation Preference: the holders of New Series A Preferred Shares (“Series A Holders”) are entitled to a liquidation preference upon the occurrence of a (i) sale, initial public offering, which term includes certain business combinations with a SPAC (an “IPO”), merger, consolidation or reorganization, which results in a change of control of AU10TIX, and (ii) winding-up, dissolution or liquidation of AU10TIX, pursuant to which the Series A Holders are entitled, on the occurrence of such event and in priority to the Ordinary Shares, to receive the greater of: (a) US$26.4583 per share, subject to adjustments for certain events affecting the capital of AU10TIX (the “Starting Price”) plus all accrued but unpaid dividends in respect of the New Series A Preferred Shares, less all dividends previously paid on the New Series A Preferred Shares, and (b) the proceeds distributable in respect of the New Series A Preferred Shares had they been converted into Class A Ordinary Shares. The Ordinary Shares rank equally in liquidation.
Conversion Rights: The New Series A Preferred Shares are subject to conversion into Class A Ordinary Shares on a 1:1 basis (subject to adjustments for certain events affecting the capital of AU10TIX): (a) upon the written request by any Series A Holder; and (b) immediately prior to a qualifying IPO of AU10TIX (being an IPO where each Class A Ordinary Share is valued at not less than 150 % of the Starting Price at the completion of the IPO, subject to adjustments for certain events affecting the capital of AU10TIX) (a “Qualifying IPO”). The Class B Ordinary Shares are convertible into Class A Ordinary Shares at any time upon the written request of a holder of Class B Ordinary Shares on a 1:1 basis, subject to adjustments for certain events affecting the capital of AU10TIX.
Anti-Dilution Protection: The SHA contains customary broad-based weighted average anti-dilution protection whereby if further shares are issued by AU10TIX at a price per new security that is less than the Starting Price, then the Series A Holders shall be entitled to receive additional Class A Ordinary Shares (at no further cost) on a weighted-average basis reflecting the value of the equity in AU10TIX, based on the subscription price paid in the new issue of securities.

Letters of Credit and Guarantees
As of June 30, 2025, and December 31, 2024, the Company has $3,144 and $2,878 in outstanding letters of credit and guarantees. Letters of credit and guarantees are being secured either by the same amounts in restricted cash with commercial banks or with deposits provided to customers which serve as cash collateral in order to guarantee the performance and quality of services provided to the customers.
As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company has a commercial guarantee of €1,700 and €1,700 ($1,992 and $1,868 ), respectively which is not secured by restricted cash or deposits provided to customer. The guarantee is part of an agreement between the Company and one of its customers in order to guarantee the performance and quality of the services provided to that customers.
Legal Proceedings
General
The Company is subject to various investigations, claims and legal proceedings covering a wide range of matters that arise in the ordinary course of its business activities. These claims are primarily related to grievances filed by current and former employees for unfair labor practices or discrimination, and for passenger aviation claims. Management recognizes a liability for any matter when the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome is deemed to be probable and the amount is able to be reasonably estimated. Management has concluded that such claims, in the aggregate, would not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
Inquiry Proceedings
In June 2021, a minority shareholder initiated proceedings by requesting the Enterprise Chamber of the Amsterdam Court of Appeal to order an inquiry into seven aspects of the policy and affairs of the Company that have been previously disclosed by the Company in its periodic filings with the SEC for the fiscal years 2020 and 2019. In June 2022, the Enterprise Chamber rendered its judgment and (i) it accepted the Company’s defense on all items except two and ordered an investigation into those two aspects of the policy and affairs of the Company, being (a) the issuance of shares to directors and certain employees at USD 0.40 in May 2019 and (b) the adjustment of the conversion price under a convertible shareholder loan to USD 0.40 in May 2019, and (ii) appointed an investigator for this purpose.
Following the filing of the investigation report with the Enterprise Chamber in November 2023, the minority shareholder filed three new requests with the Enterprise Chamber, including a request to establish mismanagement on the basis of the investigation report and to order certain definitive measures at the Company. Each of these requests was dismissed in full.
As part of the above procedures the Company committed in 2023 to repurchase the shares issued under the May 2019 issuance for $1,518 - the same price they were issued, thereby undoing the issuance. A corresponding reduction to the shareholders deficit was recorded. The Company finalized the repurchase process of those shares in August 2025, as soon as the financials of the Company allowed it according to Dutch law. In order to achieve this goal, in December 2024 the Company initiated a reduction of the Company’s issued share capital by reducing the nominal value of each of the shares in the Company from EUR 0.45 to EUR 0.01 per share in order to be able to purchase the shares. Consequently, the authorized capital of the Company was reduced to a total of EUR 1,500 resulting in a decrease of $18,760 in common stock and increase of the same amount in additional paid-in capital. The nominal value per share has been reduced as referred to in Section 2:99 paragraph 1 of the Dutch Civil Code without repayment to the shareholders. The Company concluded that the capital reduction did not result a value transfer to or from the shareholders. The Company recorded such capital reduction by a corresponding reduction in the common stock and an increase to additional paid-in capital.

NOTE 12 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES (CONTINUED)
Inquiry Proceedings (continued)
In February 2025, the minority shareholder appealed the Enterprise Chamber’s judgment on its request to establish mismanagement on the basis of the investigation report and to order certain definitive measures at the Company to the Dutch Supreme Court. The appeal proceedings are currently pending.
Inquiry proceedings revolve around corporate governance disputes and no formal liability can be established or damages can be claimed in such proceedings.
Agency Agreements
In April 2013, prior to the purchase of one of the current subsidiaries in Europe, the Company entered into an agency agreement with a third party to assist it with this transaction.

The Company operates in three reportable segments: (a) airport security (b) other aviation related services and (c) authentication technology. The Company also incurs general corporate expenses and costs which are not allocated to the reportable business segments but have been included in the “unallocated corporate” component which does not generate revenue and contains primarily non-operational expenses. The airport security segment includes the I-SEC International group. The airport security segment provides security services primarily to airlines and airport authorities in Europe. The other aviation related services segments include Huntleigh USA. The other aviation related services segment provides various services to airlines within airports in the United States of America. The authentication technology represents the AU10TIX Technologies group. The authentication technology segment provides authentication services to financial and other companies, predominantly in the United States of America. Our operating segments are the same as our reportable segments.
Our Managing Director and CFO is our chief operating decision maker (CODM), who is the highest level of management responsible for assessing the Company’s overall performance. The CODM allocates resources to and assesses the performance of each operating segment using information about the operating segment's revenue and income (loss) from operations. Our CODM does not evaluate operating segments using asset or liability information.
The CODM considers monthly results and uses that information when making decisions about the allocation of operating and capital resources to each segment. The CODM is regularly provided with disaggregates expense information at the segment level which includes the corporate expenses, which are included in ‘other segment items’ in the following tables reconciliation purposes.
Revenue and costs and expenses are directly attributed to the segments they belong. All inter-segment transactions are eliminated in consolidation. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as the accounting policies of the Company as a whole.

The Company’s business plan projects income from operations and positive cash flows from operations. The Company is also seeking to increase its liquidity by obtaining new lines of credit or factoring agreements for its operations in Europe. There can be no assurance that management will be successful in achieving its business plan or increasing its liquidity.
Revenue
Total revenue increased from $233.6 million in the first six months of 2024 to $255.4 million in the first six months of 2025.
Revenue generated in Germany was $75.7 million in the first six months of 2025 compared to $57.4 million in the parallel period of 2024. The main increase relates to services provided according to new contracts in Germany compared to previous year.
Revenue generated in the Netherlands was $54.3 million in the first six months of 2025 compared to $53.6 million in the parallel period of 2024.
Revenue generated in Spain was $60.4 million in the first six months of 2025 compared to $54.9 million in the first six months of 2024. The increase in revenue was due to the company winning several new bids in Spain and increasing the services it provides to its current customers. The Company continued to extend its operations in Spain in the last few years as part of its strategy for growth in the Aviation security segment.
Revenue generated in the United States of America was $45.8 million in the first six months of 2025, compared to $48.8 million in the parallel period of 2024. Services provided by the Other Aviation Services segment to its customers in the United States of America increased during the first six months of 2025 compared to the parallel period of 2024 due to the increase in services provided to clients and increase of minimum wage rates in few states in the United States of America (which usually increase the billable rates as well as the labor costs of the Company). On the other hand, services in the United States provided by the Authentication Technology segment decreased during the first months of 2025 compared to the parallel period.
Revenue outside Germany, the Netherlands, Spain and the United States of America totaled $19.2 million in the first six months of 2025 compared to $18.9 million in the first six months of 2024.

Payroll and related costs comprise the majority of Cost of Revenue. Following the increase of revenue of the Airport Security and Other Aviation Services segments in 2025, cost of revenue increased accordingly. Due to changes in the composition of the demand, the productivity is being affected based on the requests of the customers. Additionally, changes in sickness rate, over time paid to employees and terms of the contracts signed with the customers affect the Cost of Revenue as well. In addition, as cost of revenue of the Authentication Technology segment is materially lower than in the other segments, the decrease in the authentication technology revenue added to the increase of the cost of revenue percentage.
Research and Development (“R&D”)
R&D expenses for the period ended June 30, 2025 were $7.0 million (2.7% as percentage of revenue) compared to $7.2 million (3.1% as percentage of revenue) for the first six months of 2024. R&D expenses are related to the Authentication Technology segment. Even though the revenues of the Authentication Technology decreased during the first six months of 2025 compared to the parallel period in 2024, the Company still maintained stable R&D costs in order to ensure the Company’s technology continues improving and fulfills the market needs.
