Management Commentary

VirTra CEO John Givens stated, "In the third quarter, we continued to work through a slower federal funding cycle. The timing of federal awards and customer acceptances affected near-term revenue recognition, but it has not changed the level of engagement we are seeing from agencies. Our backlog increased again in Q3, and we entered the fourth quarter with a larger pipeline of opportunities tied to grant-driven purchasing."

"We also made meaningful progress improving how we reach and support customers. We launched our revamped website in September, and we are already generating more qualified leads. Agencies are spending more time evaluating products and requesting information. At IACP last month, we introduced the V-One Portable Simulator for smaller agencies, and the early response reinforces the importance of making high-quality training accessible across budgetary ranges."

"Our core law enforcement business remains a central focus. The Department of Justice's COPS grant program has already identified the agencies slated to receive funding based on applications that close on June 30, and we believe VirTra will be among the beneficiaries once those announcements are made. International activity continues to gain momentum, including new deployments in Canada and a multi-site award in Colombia. As grant awards progress toward contract and customer acceptances resume, we believe we are well positioned to convert pent-up demand into revenue."

Nine Months 2025 Financial Results

Total revenue for the first nine months was $19.5 million, compared to $20.9 million (restated) in the prior year period. The 7% decrease was primarily due to decreased revenues from simulators and accessories.

Gross profit for the first nine months was $13.5 million (69% of revenue), compared to $15.7 million (75% of revenue) in the prior year period.

Net operating expense for the first nine months was $11.7 million, an 11% decrease from $13.2 million in the prior year period, maintaining disciplined cost management.

Operating income for the first nine months was $1.8 million, compared to $3.3 million in the prior year period.

Net income for the first nine months was $1.1 million, or $0.09 per diluted share, compared to $2.3 million, or $0.21 per diluted share, in the prior year period.

Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP metric, was $2.5 million for the first nine months of 2025, compared to $4.0 million in the prior year period.

Third Quarter 2025 Financial Results

Total revenue for the third quarter was $5.3 million, compared to $7.5 million in the prior year period. The decrease can primarily be attributed to lower revenues from the government sector due to funding delays.

Gross profit for the third quarter was $3.5 million (66% of total revenue), compared to $5.5 million (73% of total revenue) in the prior year period.

Net operating expense for the third quarter was $4.0 million, a 16% decrease from $4.7 million in the prior year period, maintaining cost discipline.  

Operating income for the third quarter was ($0.5) million compared to $0.8 million in the prior year period.

Net income for the third quarter was ($0.4) million, or ($0.03) per diluted share, compared to $0.6 million, or $0.05 per diluted share, in the prior year period.

Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP metric, was $0.1 million for the third quarter, compared to $1.1 million in the prior year period.

Cash and cash equivalents were $20.8 million at September 30, 2025, compared to $18.0 million at December 31, 2024. Maintained working capital of $32.9 million, positioning the Company for sustained growth.

Financial Commentary

"Our results for the first nine months reflect the challenging federal funding environment we've been operating in," said CFO Alanna Boudreau. "Despite that backdrop, we continued to manage the business with discipline. Operating expenses were down year over year, and gross margins remained solid. STEP renewals and new agreements added recurring revenue during the quarter, which helped offset the timing of capital orders. Our balance sheet remains strong with $20.8 million dollars in cash and $32.9 million in working capital. Our backlog increased to $21.9 million, giving us visibility into future quarters. We believe we are well positioned to support agencies as funding gains velocity and to continue investing in the areas that will drive long-term growth."

About the Presentation of Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation, and amortization and before other non-operating costs and income ("Adjusted EBITDA") is a non-GAAP financial measure. Adjusted EBITDA also includes non-cash stock option expense and other than temporary impairment loss on investments. Other companies may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently. VirTra calculates its Adjusted EBITDA to eliminate the impact of certain items it does not consider to be indicative of its performance and its ongoing operations. Adjusted EBITDA is presented herein because management believes the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to VirTra's investors regarding VirTra's financial condition and results of operations and because Adjusted EBITDA is frequently used by securities analysts, investors, and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in VirTra's industry, several of which present a form of Adjusted EBITDA when reporting their results. Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of VirTra's results as reported under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative for net income, cash flows from operating activities and other consolidated income or cash flows statement data prepared in accordance with GAAP or as a measure of profitability or liquidity. A reconciliation of net income to Adjusted EBITDA is provided in the following tables:
