Rhea-AI Filing Summary

QuoteMedia, Inc. reported Q1 2026 revenue of $5,530,272, up 15% from Q1 2025, driven by growth in Corporate Quotestream and Interactive Content and Data APIs. Gross profit rose to $2,518,067 with gross margin improving to 46% from 44%.

The company posted a net loss of $620,612, or $(0.01) per share, compared with a $499,811 loss a year earlier, mainly due to higher software development and general and administrative expenses and about $230,000 of one-time cost-of-revenue items. Cash increased to $521,684, and management cites sufficient liquidity for at least 12 months despite a working capital deficit of $4,646,488, which includes $1,691,713 of deferred revenue.

Approximately 37% of revenue came from Canada, and one customer represented 11% of revenue. Management disclosed that disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting, although they believe the financial statements fairly present results in accordance with GAAP.

Positive

  • Revenue growth and margin improvement: Q1 2026 revenue grew 15% year over year to $5.53M, with gross profit up 19% and gross margin improving from 44% to 46%, driven by higher Corporate Quotestream and Interactive Content and Data APIs revenue.

Negative

  • Continued losses and control weaknesses: Net loss widened to $620,612 despite higher revenue, and management concluded disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting.

Insights

Solid top-line growth, but higher expenses, weaknesses in controls and ongoing losses keep risk elevated.

QuoteMedia grew Q1 2026 revenue 15% year over year to $5.53M, with Corporate Quotestream and Interactive Content and Data APIs each posting double-digit gains. Gross margin improved to 46%, suggesting better scaling of data and infrastructure costs even after a one-time $230,000 cost-of-revenue item.

Operating expenses rose 23%, led by a 42% jump in software development as fewer costs were capitalized, and higher professional fees in general and administrative. Net loss widened to $620,612, so the business remains unprofitable despite revenue growth and positive operating cash flow of $384,672.

Liquidity appears manageable in the near term with cash of $521,684 and recurring subscription revenue, though there is a working capital deficit of $4.65M and potential need for future financing. Management’s conclusion that disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting is an important governance consideration until remediation progress is disclosed in later periods.

Revenue $5,530,272 Three-months ended March 31, 2026; up 15% year over year
Net loss $620,612 Three-months ended March 31, 2026; $(0.01) per share basic and diluted
Gross margin 46% Three-months ended March 31, 2026 vs 44% in 2025
Operating cash flow $384,672 Net cash provided by operating activities, three-months ended March 31, 2026
Cash balance $521,684 Cash and cash equivalents as of March 31, 2026
Working capital deficit $4,646,488 As of March 31, 2026, includes $1,691,713 deferred revenue
Deferred revenue $1,813,443 Total deferred revenue as of March 31, 2026
Revenue from Canada 37% Share of total revenue for the year ended March 31, 2026
Series A Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock financial
"A total of 550,000 shares of the Company’s preferred stock are designated as “Series A Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock.”"
deferred revenue financial
"Deferred revenue (see note 3) was $1,691,713 current and $121,730 long-term at March 31, 2026."
Cash a company has already received for goods or services it has promised but not yet delivered; it's recorded as a liability because the company still owes that product, service, or future revenue recognition. For investors, deferred revenue signals upcoming work or deliveries that will convert into reported sales over time and affects short-term obligations, cash flow quality, and how quickly a firm can grow recognized revenue—think of it like prepaid subscriptions or gift cards a business must honor later.
material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting regulatory
"management...concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting."
A material weakness in internal control over financial reporting is a significant flaw in a company’s processes that increases the likelihood its financial statements could be wrong or misleading. Think of it as a broken checkpoint in an airport security line: if it fails, errors or fraud can pass through undetected. Investors care because these weaknesses raise the risk that reported earnings, assets, or liabilities are inaccurate, which can affect valuation, trust, and investment decisions.
remaining performance obligations financial
"revenue allocated to remaining performance obligations...was $486,098 as of March 31, 2026."
Remaining performance obligations are the work a company still needs to complete for its customers, like finishing a service or delivering a product. It’s important because it shows how much future income the company has coming in from current agreements, giving a clearer picture of its ongoing business.
working capital deficit financial
"As of March 31, 2026, our working capital deficit was $4,646,488, however current liabilities include $1,691,713 in deferred revenue."
A working capital deficit occurs when a company's short-term obligations—like bills, supplier payments and near-term debt—are larger than its readily available short-term resources such as cash, money expected from customers, and inventory that can be sold. Like a household whose monthly bills exceed its checking account, it signals potential difficulty paying immediate expenses, which matters to investors because it raises the chance the company will need outside financing or cut operations, affecting risk and value.
operating lease right-of-use assets financial
"Operating lease right-of-use assets were $141,703 and operating lease liabilities totaled $142,549 at March 31, 2026."
An operating lease right-of-use (ROU) asset is an accounting entry that shows the value of a leased item you have the legal right to use—like a building, vehicle, or equipment—recorded on a company’s balance sheet along with the corresponding lease obligation. Investors care because it adds to reported assets and liabilities, changing measures like leverage and return on assets much like bringing a long-term rental onto the company’s financial snapshot, which can affect credit terms and valuation.
Revenue $5,530,272 +15% YoY
Net loss $620,612 vs. $499,811 prior-year quarter
Gross margin 46% up from 44% in Q1 2025
Loss per share $(0.01) unchanged year over year
Guidance

Management expects similar revenue growth for the remainder of fiscal 2026 and anticipates bottom line improvement as one-time expenses and the impact of capitalized development costs diminish.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

 

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial statements and instructions for Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation, have been included. Operating results for any quarter are not necessarily indicative of the results for any other quarter or for a full year. In connection with the preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements, management evaluated subsequent events after the balance sheet date of March 31, 2026 through the filing of this report.

 

These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 contained in the Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission dated April 7, 2026.

 

Risks and Uncertainties

 

Adverse macroeconomic conditions, including inflation, slower growth or recession, and higher interest rates could materially adversely affect demand for the Company’s services.

 

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

a) Nature of operations

 

Quotemedia, Inc. (the “Company”) is a software developer and distributor of financial market data and related services to a global marketplace. The Company specializes in the collection, aggregation, and delivery of both delayed and real-time financial data content via the Internet. The Company develops and licenses software components that deliver dynamic content to banks, brokerage firms, financial institutions, mutual fund companies, online information and financial portals, media outlets, public companies, and corporate intranets.

 

b) Basis of consolidation

 

These consolidated financial statements include the operations of QuoteMedia, Ltd., a wholly owned subsidiary of QuoteMedia, Inc. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

 

c) Foreign currency remeasurement and transactions

 

The U.S. dollar is the functional currency of all of the Company’s operations. Foreign currency asset and liability amounts are remeasured into U.S. dollars at end-of-period exchange rates, except for equipment and intangible assets, which are remeasured at historical rates. Foreign currency income and expenses are remeasured at average exchange rates in effect during the year, except for expenses related to balance sheet amounts remeasured at historical exchange rates. Because the U.S. dollar is the functional currency, exchange gains and losses arising from remeasurement of foreign currency-denominated monetary assets and liabilities are included in income in the period in which they occur.

 

d) Allowances for doubtful accounts

 

The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of the Company’s customers to make required payments. The Company believes that the historical loss information it has compiled is a reasonable base on which to determine expected credit losses for trade receivables held at March 31, 2026, because the composition of the trade receivables at that date is consistent with that used in developing the historical credit-loss percentages (i.e., the similar risk characteristics of its customers and its credit practices have not changed significantly over time). The allowance for doubtful accounts was $370,000 as of March 31, 2026 and $570,000 at December 31, 2025, respectively. Bad debt (recovery) expenses were $(936) and $9,312 for the three-months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

 

e) Revenue

 

The Company generates substantially all of its revenue from subscriptions for access to its software products and related support. The Company licenses financial market data information on a monthly, quarterly, or annual basis. The Company’s products and services are divided into two main categories:

o

Web-delivered, embedded applications providing real-time, streaming market quotes and research information targeted to non-professional users.

 

o

Subscriptions are typically sold for a fixed fee and revenue is recognized ratably over the term of the subscription.

 

The Company does not provide its customers with the right to take possession of its software products at any time.

 

The Company determines revenue recognition through the following steps:

 

 

·

Identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer

 

 

 

 

·

Identification of the performance obligations in the contract

 

 

 

 

·

Determination of the transaction price

 

 

 

 

·

Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract

 

 

 

 

·

Recognition of revenue when, or as, the Company satisfies a performance obligation

 

The Company executes a signed contract with the customer that specifies services to be provided, the payment amounts and terms, and the period of service, among other terms.

 

Contract Balances

 

The Company’s corporate customers are invoiced based on fee schedules that are agreed upon in each customer contract. Individual Quotestream customers are charged a subscription fee based on their subscription agreement. The Company recognizes revenue when performance obligations have been satisfied, which is the date the customer has access to the contracted market data. The timing of revenue recognition may differ from the timing of invoicing to customers. The Company records a receivable when revenue is recognized prior to invoicing, or deferred revenue when revenue is recognized subsequent to invoicing. Upfront set-up or development fees are deferred and recognized evenly from the date performance obligations have been met to the end of the service term of the contract, as set-up and development fees are not distinct from the market data service contracts to which they relate.

 

The Company considers the following factors when determining if collection of a fee is reasonably assured: customer creditworthiness, past transaction history with the customer, current economic industry trends, and changes in customer payment terms. If these factors do not indicate collection is reasonably assured, revenue is not recognized until collection becomes reasonably assured, which is generally upon receipt of cash.

 

Cost of revenue

 

Cost of revenue primarily consists of customer support personnel-related compensation expenses, including salaries, bonuses, benefits, payroll taxes, and stock-based compensation expense, as well as expenses related to third-party hosting costs, software license fees, amortization of capitalized software development costs, amortization of acquired technology intangible assets, and allocated overhead.

 

f) Accounting Pronouncements

 

Not Yet Adopted

 

In September 2025, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2025-06, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software (“ASU 2025-06”), which modernizes the accounting for internal-use software. ASU 2025-06 removes all references to software development stages and requires capitalization of software costs when management has committed to the software project and it is probable the software will be completed and perform its intended use. ASU 2025-06 will be effective for the Company in its first quarter of 2028, and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the timing and method of its adoption of ASU 2025-06.

In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-11, Interim Reporting (Topic 270): Narrow-Scope Improvements (“ASU 2025-11”). ASU 2025-11 clarifies the applicability of the interim reporting guidance, the types of interim reporting, and the form and content of interim financial statements in accordance with GAAP. The ASU is not intended to change the fundamental nature of interim reporting or expand or reduce current interim disclosure requirements but rather provide clarity and improve navigability of the existing interim reporting requirements. This guidance is effective for interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. We are evaluating the impact of this guidance on our interim disclosures.

 

In December 2025, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2025-12, Codification Improvements. The guidance addresses suggestions received from stakeholders regarding the Accounting Standards Codification and makes other incremental improvements to U.S. GAAP. The update represents changes to the Codification that (1) clarify, (2) correct errors, or (3) make minor improvements. The amendments make the Codification easier to understand and apply. ASU 2025-12 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim periods within those fiscal years. We are currently evaluating the ASU to determine its impact on our disclosures; however, we do not expect there to be a material impact.

 

Other accounting standards that have been issued by the FASB or other standards-setting bodies that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

4. RELATED PARTIES

 

The Company entered into a five-year office lease with 410734 B.C. Ltd. effective May 1, 2021 for approximately $6,500 per month. David M. Shworan, CEO of Quotemedia Ltd., is a control person of 410734 B.C. Ltd. At March 31, 2026 $82,968 was due to 410734 B.C. Ltd. and at December 31, 2025 $62,883 was due to 410734 B.C. Ltd.

 

The Company pays a monthly marketing service fee of $3,000 to Bravenet Web Services, Inc. (“Bravenet”). At March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, there was $73,629 and $62,883 due to Bravenet related to this agreement, respectively. Also, on February 25, 2025, Bravenet advanced the Company $69,000. There are no fixed repayment terms and no interest charged on the advance. David M. Shworan is a control person of Bravenet. At March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, there was $71,757 and $72,924 due to Bravenet related to this advance.

 

At March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, there were $151,299 and $139,670 in unreimbursed expenses owed to Keith Randall, CEO of Quotemedia, Inc., respectively.

 

Amounts due to related parties are included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities. As a matter of policy all significant related party transactions are subject to review and approval by the Company’s Board of Directors.

 

5. LEASES

 

The Company has operating leases for corporate offices. The Company’s leases have remaining lease terms of 1 year to 5 years. Management determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating lease assets and liabilities are included in operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities, respectively, on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Finance lease assets and liabilities are included in property and equipment and finance lease liabilities, respectively, on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

 

Operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at commencement date. As most of the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of future payments. The Company elected the short-term lease exception and therefore only recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for leases with a term greater than one year. When determining lease terms, the Company factors in options to extend or terminate leases when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. The Company has lease agreements with lease and non-lease components, which are generally accounted for separately. For certain leases the Company accounts for the lease and non-lease components as a single lease component.

6. REDEEMABLE CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK AND STOCKHOLDERS’ DEFICIT

 

a) Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock

 

The Company is authorized to issue up to 10,000,000 non-designated preferred shares at the Board of Directors’ discretion.

 

A total of 550,000 shares of the Company’s preferred stock are designated as “Series A Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock.” The Series A redeemable convertible preferred stock has no dividend or voting rights.

 

At March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, 123,685 shares of Series A redeemable convertible preferred stock were outstanding. No shares of Series A redeemable convertible preferred stock were issued or redeemed during the three-months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025.

 

Redemption Rights

 

Holders of Series A redeemable convertible preferred stock shall have the right to convert their shares into shares of common stock at the rate of 83.33 shares of common stock for one share of Series A redeemable convertible preferred stock, at any time following the date the closing price of a share of common stock on a securities exchange or actively traded over-the-counter market has exceeded $0.30 for ninety (90) consecutive trading days. The conversion rights are subject to the availability of authorized but unissued shares of common stock.

 

In the event of any liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary, before any distribution or payment is made to any holders of any shares of common stock, the holders of shares of Series A redeemable convertible preferred stock shall be entitled to be paid first out of the assets of the Company available for distribution to holders of the Company’s capital stock whether such assets are capital, surplus, or earnings, an amount equal to $25.00 per share of Series A redeemable convertible preferred stock.

 

b) Common stock

 

No shares of common stock were issued during the three-months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025.

c) Stock Options and Warrants

 

FASB ASC 718, Stock Compensation, requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized as compensation expense over the service period (generally the vesting period) in the consolidated financial statements based on their fair values. The impact of forfeitures that may occur prior to vesting is also estimated and considered in the amount recognized.

 

There were no stock-based compensation expenses related to the Company’s stock-based awards for the three-months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025.

 

Common Stock Options and Warrants

 

There were 25,772,803 fully vested common stock warrants and options outstanding at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 at a weighted-average grant date exercise price of $0.06. No stock options or warrants to purchase common stock were granted or exercised during the three-months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025.

At March 31, 2026, there was no unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested options and warrants granted to purchase common stock.

 

All stock options and warrants to purchase common stock have been granted with exercise prices equal to or greater than the market value of the underlying common shares on the date of grant. At March 31, 2026, the aggregate intrinsic value of options and warrants outstanding and exercisable was $2,116,926. The intrinsic value of stock options and warrants are calculated as the amount by which the market price of the Company’s common stock exceeds the exercise price of the option or warrant.

 

Preferred Stock Warrants

 

Pursuant to the December 28, 2017 Compensation Agreement with David M. Shworan, the President and Chief Executive Officer of QuoteMedia, Ltd., a wholly owned subsidiary of Quotemedia, Inc., the Company issued Mr. Shworan warrants to purchase shares of Series A redeemable convertible preferred stock (“compensation preferred stock warrants”) in lieu of a cash salary. From the period December 28, 2017 to December 31, 2019 the Company issued a total of 31,250 Compensation Preferred Stock Warrants at an exercise price equal to $1.00 per share.

 

Also pursuant to the Compensation Agreement with Mr. Shworan, on December 28, 2017 the Company issued Mr. Shworan warrants to purchase up to 382,243 shares of Series A redeemable convertible preferred Stock at an exercise price equal to $1.00 per share (“liquidity preferred stock warrant”). The liquidity preferred stock warrants only vest and become exercisable on the consummation of a liquidity event as defined in the Company’s Certificate of Designation of Series A Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock. The probability of the liquidity event performance condition is not currently determinable or probable; therefore, no compensation expense has been recognized as of March 31, 2026. The probability is re-evaluated each reporting period. As of March 31, 2026, there was $7,480,496 in unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to these liquidity preferred stock warrants. Since the liquidity preferred stock warrants only vest and become exercisable on the consummation of a liquidity event which is currently determined not to be probable, management is also unable to determine the weighted-average period over which the unrecognized compensation cost will be recognized.

As of March 31, 2026, there were a total of 413,493 preferred stock warrants outstanding with a weighted average remaining contractual life of 21.8 years. As of March 31, 2026, 31,250 preferred stock warrants were exercisable. No preferred stock warrants were granted or exercised for the three-months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025.

 

7. LOSS PER SHARE

 

Basic net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) during the period by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding, excluding the dilutive effects of common stock equivalents. Common stock equivalents include redeemable convertible preferred stock, stock options and warrants. Diluted net income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of dilutive common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted shares outstanding is calculated using the treasury stock method by adding to the weighted shares outstanding any potential shares of common stock from outstanding redeemable convertible preferred stock, stock options and warrants that are in-the-money. In periods when a net loss is reported, all common stock equivalents are excluded from the calculation because they would have an anti-dilutive effect, meaning the loss per share would be reduced. Therefore, in periods when a loss is reported, the calculation of basic and dilutive loss per share results in the same value. The calculations for basic and diluted net income per share for the three-months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 are as follows:

8. SEGMENT REPORTING

 

The Company operates in one operating segment and one reportable segment, distributor of financial market data. The Company specializes in the collection, aggregation, and delivery of both delayed and real-time financial data via the Internet. The Company develops software components that deliver dynamic content to banks, brokerage firms, financial institutions, mutual fund companies, online information and financial portals, media outlets, public companies, and corporate intranets. The Company derives revenue primarily in North America and manages the business activities on a consolidated basis. The technology used in customer arrangements is based on a single software platform that is deployed to and implemented by customers in a similar manner. The service term for the software arrangements is variable, with the median term being approximately one year.

 

The accounting policies of the financial market data segment are the same as those described in the summary of accounting policies. The Chief Operating Decision Makers (CODM) are the CEOs of QuoteMedia, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary QuoteMedia Ltd. CODM assesses performance and decides how to allocate resources based on consolidated net loss that is also reported on the consolidated statements of operations as consolidated net loss. The measure of segment assets is reported on the consolidated balance sheets as total consolidated assets. The CODM also uses consolidated gross profit to evaluate income generated from segment assets (return on assets) in deciding whether to reinvest profits into the financial market data segment or into other parts of the entity, such as for acquisitions. Consolidated gross profit is reported on the consolidated statements of operations as gross profit. Consolidated net loss and gross profit are used to monitor budget versus actual results. The monitoring of budgeted versus actual results is used in assessing performance of the segment and in establishing management’s compensation.

All expense categories on the consolidated statements of operations are significant and there are no other significant segment expenses that would require disclosure or are regularly provided to the CODM. Assets provided to the CODM are consistent with those reported on the consolidated balance sheets with particular emphasis on the Company’s available liquidity, including its cash and cash equivalents.

 

9. REVENUE CONCENTRATION

 

A significant portion of the Company’s revenue has historically been derived from customers outside of the United States, primarily in Canada. For the years ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, revenue from Canada accounted for approximately 37% and 35%, respectively, of total revenue.

ITEM 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis

 

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included elsewhere in this report. We caution readers regarding certain forward looking statements in the following discussion, elsewhere in this report, and in any other statements, made by, or on behalf of our company, whether or not in future filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Forward-looking statements are statements not based on historical information and which relate to future operations, strategies, financial results, or other developments.

Overview

 

We are a developer of financial software and a distributor of market data and research information to online brokerages, clearing firms, banks, media properties, public companies, and financial service corporations worldwide. Through the aggregation of information from many direct data, news, and research sources, we offer a comprehensive range of solutions for all market-related information provisioning requirements.

 

We have three general product lines: Interactive Content and Data APIs, Data Feed Services, and Portfolio Management Systems. For financial reporting purposes, our product categories share similar economic characteristics and share costs; therefore, they are combined into one reporting segment.

 

Our Interactive Content and Data APIs consist of a suite of software applications that provide publicly traded company and market information to corporate clients via the Internet. Products include stock market quotes, fundamentals, historical and interactive charts, company news, filings, option chains, insider transactions, corporate financials, corporate profiles, screeners, market research information, investor relations provisions, level II, watch lists, and real-time quotes. All our content solutions are completely customizable and embedded directly into client Web pages for seamless integration with existing content. We are continuing to develop and launch new modules of QMod, our new proprietary Web delivery system. QMod was created for secure market data provisioning as well as ease of integration and unlimited customization. Additionally, QMod delivers search engine optimized (SEO) ready responsive content designed to adapt on the fly when rendered on mobile devices or standard Web pages – automatically resizing and reformatting to fit the device on which it is displayed.

 

Our Data Feed Services consist of raw streaming real-time market data delivered over the Internet or via dedicated telecommunication lines. We provide supplemental fundamental, historical, and analytical data, keyed to the same symbology, which provides a complete market data solution offered to our customers. Currently, QuoteMedia’s Data Feed services include complete coverage of North American exchanges and over 70 exchanges worldwide. For financial reporting purposes, Data Feed Services revenue is included in the Interactive Content and Data APIs revenue totals.

 

Our Portfolio Management Systems consist of Quotestream, Quotestream Mobile, Quotestream Professional, and our Web Portfolio Management systems. Quotestream Desktop is an Internet-based streaming online portfolio management system that delivers real-time and delayed market data to both consumer and corporate markets. Quotestream has been designed for syndication and private branding by brokerage, banking, and Web portal companies. Quotestream’s enhanced features and functionality – most notably tick-by-tick true streaming data, significantly enhanced charting features, and a broad range of additional research and analytical content and functionality – offer a professional-level experience to nonprofessional users.

 

Quotestream Professional is specifically designed for use by financial services professionals, offering exceptional coverage and functionality at extremely aggressive pricing. Quotestream Professional features broad market coverage, reliability, complete flexibility, ultra-low-latency tick-by-tick data, as well as completely customizable screens, advanced charting, comprehensive technical analysis, news, and research data.

 

Quotestream Mobile is a true companion product to the Quotestream desktop products (Quotestream and Quotestream Professional) – any changes made to portfolios in either the desktop or mobile application are automatically reflected in the other.

A key feature of QuoteMedia’s business model is that all our product lines generate recurring monthly licensing revenue from each client. Contracts to license Quotestream to our corporate clients, for example, typically have a term of one to five years and are automatically renewed unless notice is given at least 90 days prior to the expiration of the current license term. We also generate Quotestream revenue through individual end-user licenses on a monthly or annual subscription fee basis. Interactive Content and Data APIs and Market Data Feeds are licensed for a monthly, quarterly, annual, or semi-annual subscription fee. Contracts to license our Financial Data Products and Data Feeds typically have a term of one to five years and are automatically renewed unless notice is given 90 days prior to the expiration of the contract term.

 

Business Environment and Trends

 

While our licensed-based revenue is generally recurring in nature, the uncertainty caused by the recent market downturn and rising inflation may result in some clients delaying purchasing decisions, product and service implementations or cancel or reduce spending with us.

 

New tariffs proposed by the U.S. government could lead to a general slowdown in economic activity, which could negatively impact our business.

 

Events in the Middle East and Ukraine have continued to cause disruptions in the global financial markets. While we do not have any operations in the Middle East, Ukraine or Russia, we will continue to monitor the situation as a prolonged conflict could impact our business.

 

Approximately 37% of our revenue and 38% of our expenses are denominated in Canadian dollars and because our Canadian dollar revenue and expenses are evenly matched, exchange rate fluctuations have minimal impact on our net loss and cash flows.

 

Our revenue increased 15% in Q1 2026 versus the comparative 2025 quarter. Based on revenue already under contract we expect similar revenue growth for the remainder of fiscal 2026.

 

Our development cost expense significantly increased this quarter due to a higher percentage of development salaries being expensed rather than capitalized, as more development time was spent on system maintenance and other development activities that did not meet the criteria for capitalization. While this had no impact on our cash flow, it had a negative impact on our earnings as we are expensing development costs in the current period related to past capitalized development. We expect this trend to continue for the remainder of 2026, although its impact will diminish over time.

 

We incurred some one-time expenses totaling approximately $230,000 during the quarter (see Cost of Revenue discussion below), which, along with the impact of capitalized development costs, significantly impacted our net loss for the quarter. For the remainder of fiscal 2026 we expect our bottom line to improve without the non-recurring expense noted above and the impact of capitalized development costs diminishes.

 

Plan of Operation

 

For the remainder of 2026 we plan to continue to expand our product lines and improve our infrastructure. We plan to continue to add more features and data to our existing products and release newer versions with improved performance and flexibility for client integration. We plan to continue to leverage artificial intelligence (AI) tools, where possible, to automate this process. This expansion is expected to result in both increased revenue and costs for the fiscal year 2026.

 

We will maintain our focus on marketing Quotestream for deployments by brokerage firms to their retail clients and continue our expansion into the investment professional market with Quotestream Professional. We also plan to continue the growth of our Data Feed Services client base, particularly through the addition of major new international data feed coverage, as well as new data delivery products.

 

QuoteMedia will continue to focus on increasing the sales of its Interactive Content and Data APIs, particularly in the context of large-scale enterprise deployments encompassing solutions ranging across several product lines. QMod is a major component of this strategy, given the broad demand for mobile-ready, SEO-friendly Web content.

 

Important development projects for the remainder of 2026 include broad expansion of data and news coverage, including the addition of a wide array of international exchange data and news, video feeds, expansion of fixed-income coverage, and the introduction of several new and upgraded market information products.

 

New deployments of our trade integration capabilities, which allow our Quotestream applications to interact with our brokerage clients’ back-end trade execution and reporting platforms (enabling on-the-fly trade execution and tracking of holdings) are underway and will continue to be a priority for the remainder of the year.

Table of Contents

 

We are also creating new proprietary data sets, analytics, and scoring mechanisms. We are now aggregating data direct from the sources to produce data sets that are proprietary to QuoteMedia. This allows us to offer our clients new data products and lower our product cost structure as we replace some of our existing data providers with our own lower cost data.

 

Opportunistically, efforts will be made to evaluate and pursue the development of additional new products that may eventually be commercialized by our company. Although not currently anticipated, we may require additional capital to execute our proposed plan of operation. There can be no assurance that such additional capital will be available to our company on commercially reasonable terms or at all.

 

Our future performance will be subject to a number of business factors, including those beyond our control, such as a continuation of market uncertainty and evolving industry needs and preferences, as well as the level of competition and our ability to continue to successfully market our products and technology. There can be no assurance that we will be able to successfully implement our marketing strategy, continue our revenue growth, or maintain profitable operations.

Our cost of revenue consists of fixed and variable stock exchange fees and data feed provisioning costs. Cost of revenue also includes amortization of capitalized internal-use software costs. We capitalize the costs associated with developing new products during the application development stage.

 

Our cost of revenue increased 11% for the three-months ended March 31, 2026 from the comparative period in 2025. This was mainly due to some one-time, non-recurring expenses related to data licensing, processing and delivery, that amounted to approximately $230,000.

Sales and Marketing

 

Sales and marketing consist primarily of sales and customer service salaries, investor relations, travel and advertising expenses. Sales and marketing expenses increased 5% for the three-months ended March 31, 2026, when compared to the same period in 2025. The increase was mainly due to additional sales personnel added since the comparative quarter.

 

General and Administrative

 

General and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries expense, office rent, insurance premiums, and professional fees. General and administrative expenses increased 17% for the three-months ended March 31, 2026, when compared to the same period in 2025. The increase is mainly a result of an increase in professional fees from the comparative period, offset by a decrease in office rent expense. We downsized our office space in Vancouver, Canada effective September 1, 2025 when our existing lease terminated, as our development staff now primarily work remotely

 

Software Development

 

Software development expenses consist primarily of costs associated with the design, programming, and testing of our software applications during the preliminary project stage. Software development expenses also include costs incurred to maintain our software applications.

 

Software development expenses increased 42% for the three-months ended March 31, 2026 when compared to the same period in 2025, due to lower capitalization of development costs and therefore higher immediate expense recognition. We capitalized 9% of development costs this quarter versus 27% the comparative period.

 

We capitalized $173,683 and $523,599 of development costs for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. These costs relate to the development of application software used by subscribers to access, manage, and analyze information in our databases. Capitalized costs associated with application software are amortized over their estimated economic life of three years.

Foreign Exchange Gain

 

We incurred foreign exchange gains of $30,074 and $5,962 for the three-months periods ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. Foreign exchange gains and losses arise from the re-measurement of Canadian dollar monetary assets and liabilities into U.S. dollars and from exchange rate fluctuations between transaction and settlement dates for foreign currency denominated transactions.

Interest Expense, Net

 

Interest expense is netted against interest earned on cash balances. Net interest expense of $25,246 and $2,387 were incurred for the three-months periods ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The increase was due to increased vendor finance charges.

 

Provision for Income Taxes

 

For the three-months periods ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company recorded $554 and $66,151 in income tax expenses, respectively.

 

Net Loss for the Period

 

As a result of the foregoing, our net losses for the three-months periods ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 were $620,612 and $499,811, respectively. The basic and diluted loss per share was $(0.01) for the three-months periods ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Our cash totaled $521,684 at March 31, 2026, as compared with $319,889 at December 31, 2025, an increase of $201,795. Net cash of $ 384,672 was provided by operations for the three-months ended March 31, 2026, primarily due to adjustments for non-cash charges and an increase in accounts payable and accrued liabilities and a decrease in accounts receivable. This was offset by our net loss. Net cash used in investing activities for the three-months ended March 31, 2026 was $182,877, due to capitalized application software costs and purchases of computer equipment.

 

We typically operate with a working capital deficit. As of March 31, 2026, our working capital deficit was $4,646,488, however current liabilities include $1,691,713 in deferred revenue. The expected costs necessary to realize the deferred revenue are minimal. If circumstances dictate, we have the flexibility to reduce development spending to maintain a strong liquidity position.

 

Based on the factors discussed above, we believe that our cash on hand and cash generated from operations will be sufficient to fund our current operations for at least the next 12 months through March 2027. However, implementing our business plan may require additional financing. Additional financing may come from future equity or debt offerings that could result in dilution to our stockholders. Further, current adverse capital and credit market conditions could limit our access to capital. We may be unable to raise capital or bear an unattractive cost of capital that could reduce our financial flexibility.

 

Our long-term liquidity requirements will depend on many factors, including the rate at which we expand our business and whether we do so internally or through acquisitions. To the extent that the funds generated from operations are insufficient to fund our activities in the long term, we may be required to raise additional funds through public or private financing. No assurance can be given that additional financing will be available or that, if it is available, it will be on terms acceptable to us.

 

Foreign Exchange Risk

 

Currently, approximately 37% of our consolidated revenue and 38% of our consolidated expenses are denominated in Canadian dollars. Since currently our Canadian dollar revenue and expenses are closely matched, our consolidated cashflows are not significantly impacted by foreign exchange fluctuations.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

At March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, we did not have any unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, or other off-balance sheet arrangements.

 

ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Our management, with the participation and supervision of our Chairman of the Board and Chairman of the Audit Committee, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, have evaluated our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of March 31, 2026, and concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives, and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on that evaluation, our management identified the following material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, as described below.

 

 
19

Table of Contents

 

Notwithstanding the material weaknesses described below our management has concluded that our consolidated financial statements for the periods covered by and included in this Quarterly Report are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) and fairly present, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for each of the periods presented herein.

 

The following material weaknesses were identified during the preparation and review of the current period financial statements:

 

 

·

There is a lack of segregation of duties in financial reporting.

 

A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2026 covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
