(MENAFN- Newsfile Corp)
Fountain Valley, California--(Newsfile Corp. - September 26, 2025) - Moving iMage Technologies, Inc. (NYSE American: MITQ), a leading provider of cutting-edge out-of-home entertainment technology and services for cinema, Esports, stadiums, arenas and other venues, announced results for its fourth quarter (Q4'25) and fiscal year ended June 30, 2025 (FY'25) and will hold an investor call today at 11am ET (see call details below). Highlights
Moving iMage improved its Q4'25 and FY'25 bottom-line performance as progress in reducing operating expenses in the current periods more than offset higher revenues in the year-ago periods. Q4'25 operating expenses declined 26.5% to $1.4M compared to $1.9M in Q4'24 and FY'25 operating expenses declined 9.3% to $5.7M from $6.2M in FY'24.
The Company improved its FY'25 gross margin percentage to 25.2% from 23.3% in FY'24, reflecting its focus on higher margin product and project opportunities over the full year. Moving iMage's Q4'25 gross margin declined to 20.4% compared to 22.5% in Q4'24, reflecting normal variability in sales product mix.
Moving iMage secured a contract to install 150 Barco laser cinema projectors over the course of three years for a long-time U.S. film exhibition customer.
Moving iMage improved its year-end net cash position to $5.7M, or approximately $0.57 per share, compared to $5.3M, or $0.53 per share, at the end of FY'24, and had no long-term debt at the close of FY'25 or FY'24.
Chairman and CEO, Phil Rafnson, commented, "Moving iMage continues to be the partner of choice for cutting-edge cinema projects, such as Metro Private Cinema and the revitalized Cherry Lane Theater, both in New York City, as well as for laser projection and audio upgrades for leading exhibitor locations across the country. We are heartened to see improving box office performances across the cinema industry along with a solid pipeline of upcoming films. We expect continued box office traction to support our customers' business case for cinema technology upgrades and the development of new cinema venues and concepts though we are cognizant of the challenges navigating the flow of the current business cycle.
"The value proposition of our long-term experience, unique array of products, and turnkey services is clear, however deciphering our customers' implementation timing remains a challenge. We are maintaining our focus on managing margins, costs and cash while we actively pursue a range of exhibitor upgrades, new builds and specialty projects."
President and COO, Francois Godfrey, added, "Leveraging a strong exhibition industry reputation built over more than two decades, MiT is actively pursuing cinema technology refresh and new venue development projects across the U.S. Key areas of opportunity include ongoing upgrades to laser projection technology, Direct View LED display formats, PLF (Private Large/Luxury Formats) upgrades and immersive audio solutions as customers replace legacy xenon-powered projection systems that are reaching the end of their useful lives. New projection technologies deliver substantially improved image quality for audiences, while also providing meaningful energy efficiency and operating cost benefits. Complementing the improved picture with immersive audio upgrades enhances the entire movie going experience.
"We believe there are still thousands of auditoriums likely to be upgraded over the next few years, and Moving iMage is uniquely positioned to guide exhibitors through each step of the design, installation and system commissioning processes. In addition to laser projection, large scale Direct View LED displays also represent an exciting area of opportunity from both product and services standpoints. Direct View LED technology offers tremendous light precision, contrast and stunning images that is effective across a wide range of light environments. This versatility allows customers to deploy Direct View LED displays in a much greater variety of auditorium geometries and alternative content venues. We are collaborating with Direct View LED display pioneers, Samsung - at our upcoming Cannon Beach project in Arizona - and LG Electronics, with our installation project for the Meryl Streep Center For Performing Artists in Los Angeles.
"In addition to these opportunities, we have built a largely recurring base of $8M to $9M in annual revenue from our customers' ongoing parts, component replacement, design and service needs.
"Despite lower revenue in Q4'25 and FY'25, our progress reducing operating costs enabled us to achieve meaningful bottom-line improvements in both periods. These disciplines are also essential to achieving our goal of positive cash flow and profitability on a consistent basis."
Business Outlook
Moving iMage is cautiously optimistic regarding its outlook for FY'26 and the potential for a modest ramp in cinema technology upgrades to next-generation projection, display and audio solutions. Supporting its outlook are the significant customer experience benefits and lower total cost of ownership of new laser projection technologies along with the performance and reliability challenges of legacy projection systems. FY'26 revenue expectations are currently more weighted to the second half, given industry planning and budget cycles, and the avoidance of technology updates during key holiday film release windows in November and December. Moving iMage currently expects revenue of approximately $4.9M for Q1'26 ending September 30.
Q4'25 Financial Review
Q4'25 net sales declined 7.3% to $5.88M vs. $6.35M in Q4'24, principally due to reduced customer project activity in the recent period as well as the impact of theater seating revenues recorded in the year ago period. Q4'25 gross profit dollars decreased to $1.2M vs. $1.43M in Q4'24, reflecting lower net sales as well as a Q4'25 gross margin of 20.4% vs. 22.5% in Q4'24. The year over year decrease in gross margin was due to normal variability in sales product mix. Q4'25 operating expenses decreased 26.5% to $1.4M from $1.9M in Q4'24, reflecting Moving iMage's expense management initiatives. Selling and marketing expenses decreased 34.3% to $0.46M from $0.70M in Q4'24 while general and administrative expenses decreased 21.6% to $0.89M from $1.1M in Q4'24, as the Company continues to pursue cost savings opportunities. Q4'25 net loss improved to ($156K), or ($0.02) per share, largely due to expense reduction progress, vs. a net loss of ($416K), or ($0.04) per share, in Q4'24.
FY'25 Financial Review
FY'25 revenue declined 9.9% to $18.15M vs. $20.14M in FY'24, principally due to reduced customer project activity. FY'25 gross profit decreased 2.4% to $4.57M vs. $4.68M as the decline in revenue more than offset an improvement in gross margin. FY'25 gross margin improved to 25.2% vs 23.3% in FY'24 due to the focus on higher margin opportunities throughout the year. FY'25 operating expenses decreased 9.4% to $5.67M vs. $6.24M in FY'24, driven by the Company's ongoing expense management initiatives. The improvements were driven by lower compensation expense, more effective use of sales and marketing budgets, and the continued discipline around public company costs. The Company's FY'25 net loss improved to ($0.95M), or ($0.10) per share, benefitting from both gross margin and expense reduction improvements, vs. a net loss of ($1.37M), or ($0.13) per share, last year.
