Management Commentary

  • “Revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2025, while significantly increased, undershot prior projections due to delays in customer implementation for the QID services contract. The Company was able to redirect assigned resources to product improvements and new customer onboarding.”
  • “As of the date of this release, a total of 92 financial institutions with over $348 billion in assets have been onboarded via FIS… transaction starts… increased 247% including a 179% increase for July… and customer completion rates increased by over 30%.”
  • On product positioning in age verification: “TrustedAge is a biometric key, permanently locked to one user… a simple, live selfie check ensures the right person is present, without storing their biometric data.”
  • Strategic expansion: exclusive MoU with Ghana’s NIA for identity tokenization and revenue-sharing implementations; management highlights digital ID’s macroeconomic impact potential .

Q&A Highlights

No Q2 2025 earnings call transcript was available. Key clarifications from filings/releases:

  • QID delays drove the Q2 revenue shortfall vs projections; management redirected resources to onboarding/product improvement .
  • Revenue mix is shifting toward services (professional services $0.783M in Q2) with reduced license fees post-Mastercard amendment .
  • Liquidity plan: utilize ATM and debt financing; post-Q2 secured note includes redemption cadence and exit fees, plus mandatory prepayments on future raises .

Estimates Context

  • Q2 2025 revenue beat consensus by ~9.7% ($0.813M vs $0.741M), while EPS missed (actual -$0.5797 vs -$0.36). Coverage is thin with 1 estimate for both metrics, limiting signal strength*.
  • Given QID implementation timing and deferred revenue, near-term estimate revisions may reflect improved conversion of backlog in H2 vs Q2 cadence.

Key Takeaways for Investors

  • Execution vs timing: Operational KPIs (starts/completions) are accelerating, but revenue conversion lagged in Q2 due to QID ramp delays—watch H2 conversion of deferred revenue and MTSA billing .
  • Cost actions are sticking: SG&A down ~33% YoY and Adjusted EBITDA loss narrowed 42%—continued discipline is central to path toward breakeven .
  • Liquidity watch: Cash $0.292M and going concern disclosure; post-quarter ATM and $2.21M secured note extend runway but add redemption/exit fee obligations—monitor financing cadence and mandatory prepay triggers .
  • Customer concentration and mix: S&P 500 bank and QID accounted for ~84% of Q2 revenue; reduced Mastercard license fees shift mix toward services—scale with FIS and new customers is key .
  • Strategic optionality: Ghana NIA MoU, APAC expansion (K-Startup), and age verification solution broaden the pipeline; proof points and contract conversion will be catalysts .
  • Near-term trading: Expect stock to react to H2 revenue cadence (conversion of deferred/QID ramp), financing updates under ATM/note, and customer wins; thin estimate coverage can amplify beats/misses*.
