First Quarter and Full Year 2026 Outlook:
Our guidance includes non-GAAP measures. For the first quarter and full year 2026, Via expects the following:
| Q1 2026 | FY 2026 | ||||||||||
| Revenue | $123.3M - $123.8M | $542.9M - $545.1M | |||||||||
| YoY Growth % | 25.0% - 25.5% | 25.0% - 25.5% | |||||||||
Adjusted EBITDA (1) | ($7.25)M - ($6.75)M | ($12.5)M - ($7.5)M | |||||||||
Adjusted EBITDA Margin (1) | (5.9)% - (5.5)% | (2.3)% - (1.4)% | |||||||||
| Profitability | Q4 2026 Adj. EBITDA > $0 | ||||||||||
(1)Via is not able, at this time, to provide an outlook for GAAP net loss or a reconciliation of expected Adjusted EBITDA to GAAP net loss for the first quarter or full year 2026 because of the difficulty of estimating certain items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA that cannot be reasonably calculated or predicted without unreasonable efforts. For example, charges related to stock-based compensation and related employer payroll taxes expense require additional inputs, such as the number and value of awards granted, that are not currently ascertainable.
Conference Call Details
Via will host a conference call to discuss its fourth quarter fiscal year 2025 results at 8:30 a.m. Eastern Time (5:30 a.m. Pacific Time) on February 27, 2026.

About Via
Via is the technology backbone of a modern transportation network. We transform public transportation systems into dynamic networks, based on data and demand. Cities and transit agencies around the world adopt Via’s suite of software and technology-enabled services to replace fragmented legacy systems and consolidate operations. As a result, Via lowers the cost of providing transit, improves the passenger experience, and brings more riders on board. Today, the Via platform is utilized by hundreds of cities across more than 30 countries to create public transportation systems that connect people with jobs, healthcare, and education.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We report certain non-GAAP financial measures, not presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”). These non-GAAP financial measures include Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted Research and Development expense, Adjusted Sales and Marketing expense, Adjusted General and Administrative expense, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin and Adjusted Net Loss. These measures have limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the Company’s results as reported under GAAP. Because not all companies calculate non-GAAP financial information identically, the presentations herein may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies. The Company’s presentation of such measures, which may include adjustments to exclude unusual or non-recurring items, should not be construed as an inference that the Company’s future results will be unaffected by other unusual or non-recurring items. Further, such non-GAAP financial information of the Company should be considered in addition to, and not as superior to or as a substitute for, the historical consolidated financial statements of the Company prepared in accordance with GAAP. We urge you to review the reconciliations of the non-GAAP measures to their directly comparable GAAP financial measures and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business.
Safe Harbor/Forward Looking Statements
This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and other federal securities laws, and that reflect our current views with respect to, among other things, future events, and our future business, financial condition, results of operations, and prospects. These statements are often, but not always, made through the use of words or phrases such as “may,” “should,” “could,” “predict,” “potential,” “believe,” “will likely result,” “expect,” “continue,” “will,” “anticipate,” “seek,” “estimate,” “intend,” “plan,” “projection,” “would,” and “outlook,” or the negative version of those words or phrases or other comparable words or phrases of a future or forward-looking nature. These forward-looking statements are not statements of historical fact, and are based on current expectations, estimates, and projections about our industry as well as certain assumptions made by management, many of which, by their nature, are inherently uncertain and beyond our control. We cannot guarantee that future results reflected in the forward-looking statements will occur. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially include, but are not limited to the risks and uncertainties described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed in connection with this earnings and other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Except to the extent required by law, we do not undertake to update any of the information contained in this press release.
