Management Commentary

VirTra CEO John Givens stated, “Since quarter-end, we have continued to see customer activity move forward across our core markets. Agencies are re-engaging as funding programs reopen, customers are working through grant applications and procurement steps, and our team is staying closely involved to help move these opportunities forward. While the timing of revenue conversion remains dependent on external funding and customer processes, the progression we are seeing today supports our expectation for improved sales momentum as we move through the second half of 2026.

“We are also seeing tangible progress from a more targeted commercial strategy. Over the past three months, qualified leads have approximately doubled, supported by improved lead capture, more focused customer segmentation, needs-based marketing campaigns, and a more disciplined process for moving prospects from initial interest into the sales pipeline. We continue to see interest in new capabilities such as drone defense training, advanced analytics, and portable simulation platforms, which expand the ways customers can apply VirTra’s technology.

“Across our target markets, customers are preparing for more dynamic threats, including emerging needs around drone defense and de-escalation, which come with a broader range of training requirements. VirTra’s role is to help them train more effectively, more consistently, and with better data, and we believe we are well-positioned as funding and procurement conditions continue to normalize.”

First Quarter 2026 Financial Results

Total revenue was $3.5 million, compared to $7.2 million in the prior year period. The decrease was due to a number of our Q3 and Q4 booking customers being unable to accept delivery in Q1 of 2026.

Gross profit was $2.1 million (61% of revenue), compared to $5.2 million (73% of revenue) in the prior year period.

Net operating expense was $3.5 million, compared to $3.8 million in the prior year period, maintaining disciplined cost management.

Loss from operations was $(1.3) million, compared to income from operations of $1.4 million in the prior year period.

Net loss was $(1.3) million, or $(0.12) per diluted share, compared to net income of $1.3 million, or $0.11 per diluted share, in the prior year period.

Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP metric, was $(0.9) million, compared to $1.7 million in the prior year period.

Financial Commentary

VirTra CFO Alanna Boudreau stated, “Our first quarter results reflect continued revenue timing variability, particularly in capital system sales, as customers work through funding and procurement processes. During the quarter, Subscription Training Equipment Partnership (STEP) revenue represented a larger percentage of total revenue due to the lower level of capital system sales. STEP provides recurring revenue visibility and remains an attractive access model for agencies, though revenue from these agreements is recognized over the life of the contract, which can pressure reported gross margin in periods where STEP represents a larger share of revenue. We continued to manage expenses carefully while maintaining a strong balance sheet.”

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:
