Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Mitek Systems reported record fiscal 2026 second‑quarter revenue of $54.8 million, up 6% from $51.9 million a year ago, and raised its full‑year outlook. Growth was led by Fraud and Identity solutions, where revenue rose 28% year over year to $25.7 million, and by SaaS revenue, which increased 18% to $21.2 million.

GAAP net income was $9.5 million, or $0.20 per diluted share, roughly flat with $9.2 million and $0.20 a year earlier. Non‑GAAP net income increased to $18.5 million, or $0.38 per diluted share, and adjusted EBITDA rose to $22.3 million with a 40.7% margin. Cash and investments totaled $77.6 million at March 31, 2026, reflecting retirement of $155 million of Convertible Senior Notes and a new $50 million term loan.

For full‑year fiscal 2026, Mitek now expects revenue of $189–$198 million, implying about 8% growth at the midpoint, Fraud and Identity solutions revenue of $103–$108 million with about 17% midpoint growth, and an adjusted EBITDA margin between 30% and 33%.

Positive

  • Record quarterly performance and mix shift to growth engines: Q2 2026 revenue reached a record $54.8 million, with Fraud and Identity solutions up 28% year over year and SaaS revenue up 18%, highlighting momentum in Mitek’s strategic higher‑growth businesses.
  • Improving profitability and stronger forward outlook: Adjusted EBITDA increased to $22.3 million with a 40.7% margin, non‑GAAP net income rose to $18.5 million, and management raised full‑year 2026 revenue and adjusted EBITDA margin guidance, indicating confidence in ongoing performance.

Negative

  • Lower cash balance and new term loan after debt actions: Cash and investments fell to $77.6 million at March 31, 2026 from $196.5 million at September 30, 2025, as Mitek retired $155 million of Convertible Senior Notes and added a $50 million term loan, shifting its financing mix.

Insights

Record Q2, strong SaaS and identity growth, higher 2026 outlook, cleaner balance sheet.

Mitek delivered record Q2 2026 revenue of $54.8M, up 6% year over year, with profitability holding up. Growth is concentrated in higher‑value lines: Fraud and Identity solutions revenue rose 28% to $25.7M, and SaaS revenue increased 18% to $21.2M.

Profitability improved on a non‑GAAP basis. Adjusted EBITDA reached $22.3M with a 40.7% margin, and non‑GAAP net income grew to $18.5M or $0.38 per diluted share. GAAP gross margin dipped to 78.8%, but operating leverage and lower interest expense supported earnings.

The company used cash to retire $155M of Convertible Senior Notes, reducing cash and investments to $77.6M as of March 31, 2026 while adding a $50M term loan. Management raised full‑year fiscal 2026 revenue guidance to $189–$198M and now targets an adjusted EBITDA margin of 30–33%, signaling confidence in sustained demand for its identity and fraud products.

Adjusted EBITDA financial
"Adjusted EBITDA was $22.3 million, compared to $20.3 million a year ago."
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.
Convertible Senior Notes financial
"the retirement of the $155 million Convertible Senior Notes was the primary contributor to the decrease."
Convertible senior notes are a type of loan that a company issues to investors, which can be turned into company shares later on. They are called "senior" because they are paid back before other debts if the company runs into trouble. This allows investors to earn interest like a loan but also have the chance to own part of the company if its value rises.
non-GAAP gross profit margin financial
"Non-GAAP gross profit margin was 85.0%, compared to 87.7% a year ago."
Non-GAAP gross profit margin is a company’s gross profit percentage calculated after removing certain expenses or gains that management considers unusual or not part of ongoing operations. Investors use it like looking at a cleaned-up version of a business’s core profitability—similar to judging a car’s fuel efficiency after ignoring one-off trips—because it can highlight underlying trends, but it may vary from standard accounting and can be adjusted in different ways.
free cash flow financial
"LTM free cash flow was $44.5 million, compared to $47.1 million for the corresponding period a year ago."
Free cash flow is the amount of money a company has left over after paying all its expenses and investing in its business, like buying equipment or updating facilities. It shows how much cash is available to reward shareholders, pay down debt, or save for future growth. This helps investors understand if a company is financially healthy and able to grow.
stock-based compensation expense financial
"This news release contains non-U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) financial measures ... that excludes stock-based compensation expense"
Stock-based compensation expense is the value that a company records when it gives employees or executives shares or options to buy shares as part of their pay. It matters because it shows the true cost of paying employees this way, which can affect the company's profits and how investors see its financial health.

Guidance

For fiscal 2026, Mitek guides revenue to $189–$198M (about 8% growth at midpoint), Fraud & Identity revenue to $103–$108M (about 17% midpoint growth), and adjusted EBITDA margin to 30–33%.

Note Regarding Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This news release contains non-U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) financial measures for adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, non-GAAP cost of revenue, non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross profit margin, non-GAAP net income per basic share, non-GAAP net income per diluted share, non-GAAP free cash flow, and non-GAAP operating expense that excludes stock-based compensation expense, litigation and other legal costs, executive and other transition costs, non-recurring audit fees, enterprise risk, portfolio positioning and other related costs, and non-GAAP net income which additionally excludes amortization of acquisition-related intangibles, net changes in estimated fair value of acquisition-related contingent consideration, restructuring costs, amortization of debt discount and issuance costs, income tax effect of pre-tax adjustments, and cash tax difference. These financial measures are not calculated in accordance with GAAP and are not based on any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles. In evaluating the Company’s performance, management uses certain non-GAAP financial measures to supplement financial statements prepared under GAAP. Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide a useful measure of the Company’s operating results, a meaningful comparison with historical results and with the results of other companies, and insight into the Company’s ongoing operating performance. Further, management and the Board of Directors of the Company utilize these non-GAAP financial measures to gain a better understanding of the Company’s comparative operating








performance from period-to-period and as a basis for planning and forecasting future periods. Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures, when read in conjunction with the Company’s GAAP financial statements, are useful to investors because they provide a basis for meaningful period-to-period comparisons of the Company’s ongoing operating results, including results of operations against investor and analyst financial models, which helps identify trends in the Company’s underlying business and provides a better understanding of how management plans and measures the Company’s underlying business.

The Company has not provided a reconciliation of its forward outlook for non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA margin with its forward-looking GAAP net income margin in reliance on the unreasonable efforts exception provided under Item 10(e)(1)(i)(B) of Regulation S-K. The Company is unable, without unreasonable efforts, to quantify share-based compensation expense, which is excluded from our non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA margin, as it requires additional inputs such as the number of shares granted and market prices that are not ascertainable due to the volatility of the Company’s share price. Additionally, a significant portion of the Company’s operations are in foreign countries and the transactional currencies are primarily Euros and British pound sterling and the Company is not able to predict fluctuations in those currencies without unreasonable efforts. The Company expects these items may have a potentially significant impact on future GAAP financial results.

We define free cash flow as net cash provided by operating activities, less cash used for purchases of property and equipment. We define free cash flow margin as free cash flow as a percentage of revenue. In addition to the reasons stated above, we believe that free cash flow is useful to investors as a liquidity measure because it measures our ability to generate or use cash in excess of our capital investments in property and equipment in order to enhance the strength of our balance sheet and further invest in our business and potential strategic initiatives. A limitation of the utility of free cash flow as a measure of our liquidity is that it does not represent the total increase or decrease in our cash balance for the period. We use free cash flow in conjunction with traditional U.S. GAAP measures as part of our overall assessment of our liquidity, including the preparation of our annual operating budget and quarterly forecasts and to evaluate the effectiveness of our business strategies. There are a number of limitations related to the use of free cash flow as compared to net cash provided by operating activities, including that free cash flow includes capital expenditures, the benefits of which are realized in periods subsequent to those when expenditures are made. We may refer to certain financial metrics on a Last Twelve Months (“LTM”) basis. LTM figures represent the sum of the most recently reported four fiscal quarters and are used to provide a view of the company's financial performance over the past year.

Mitek encourages investors to review the related GAAP financial measures and the reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, which it includes in press releases announcing quarterly financial results, including this press release, and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate Mitek’s business.

Restructuring costs were $0.8 million in the six months ended March 31, 2025 and were related to a restructuring that occurred in the first quarter of fiscal 2025.
(2)The Company’s non-GAAP net income is calculated using a cash tax rate of 14% in fiscal 2026 and 18% in fiscal 2025. The estimated cash tax rate is the estimated annual tax payable on the Company’s tax returns as a percentage of estimated annual non-GAAP pre-tax net income. The Company uses an estimated cash tax rate to adjust for the historical variation in the effective book tax rate associated with the reversal of valuation allowances, and the utilization of research and development tax credits which currently have an overall effect of reducing taxes payable. The Company believes that the cash tax rate provides a more transparent view of the Company’s operating results. The Company’s effective tax rate used for the purposes of calculating GAAP net income for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 was 25% and 9%, respectively. The Company’s effective tax rate used for the purposes of calculating GAAP net income for the six months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 was 28% and 12%, respectively.
