  Content	Aware, Inc. (NASDAQ: AWRE), a global leader in biometric identity and authentication solutions, today reported financial results for the third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2025. Third Quarter 2025 Financial and Recent Operational Highlights Revenue for the third quarter increased 33% year-over-year to $5.1 million. Net loss improved to $1.1 million, compared to a net loss of $1.2 million in the prior year period. Adjusted EBITDA loss improved significantly to $0.8 million, compared to $1.1 million in the prior year period. Achieved FIDO Alliance Certification for Face Verification in October, positioning Aware among the first to meet FIDO's rigorous standards for secure, passwordless authentication and reinforcing its leadership in biometric security solutions. Launched Intelligent Liveness, Aware's next-generation biometric liveness-detection capability that seamlessly combines passive and active methods to deliver sub-second capture speeds, cut false-negative rates by roughly 50% to our internal benchmarking, and rapidly adapt to new spoofing threats. Expanded engagement with a major U.S. federal agency by adding Intelligent Liveness to a mission-critical biometric program. Added a new financial services customer adopting Aware's biometric verification and adaptive liveness capabilities to reduce fraud and accelerate onboarding, demonstrating the success of Aware's “land-and-expand” strategy within enterprise accounts. Management Commentary “In the third quarter, we delivered 33% year-over-year revenue growth and improved our bottom line, reflecting disciplined execution and early validation of Aware's transformation strategy,” said Ajay Amlani, Chief Executive Officer and President of Aware. “Our three-pronged transformation continues to guide our work: advancing our core biometric technology with a focus on adaptive liveness, strengthening our science-forward, customer-obsessed, go-to-market model, and deepening strategic partnerships and certifications that build trust and scale. By executing these core initiatives this quarter, we expanded government deployments and increased market penetration and strengthened Aware's brand, helping to build a strong, qualified commercial pipeline with the ‘who's who' in biometrics. Looking ahead, we remain focused on pursuing large, durable opportunities with the potential to translate into multi-year recurring revenue and product leverage. As always, quarterly results may vary based on timing, license mix, and short-term impact of government shutdown, but our long-term strategy remains unchanged. By maintaining disciplined execution, we believe we are building the foundation for sustainable growth and long-term value creation as Aware leads the next era of digital identity.” Third Quarter 2025 Financial Results Revenue increased 33% year-over-year to $5.1 million, reflecting both strong new customer activity and expansion within our existing base. Growth was driven by $1.0 million in perpetual license expansion with an existing customer and $0.6 million in new term license contracts. These gains were partially offset by typical fluctuations in perpetual and term license timing and recurring revenue components. Operating expenses were $6.4 million, compared to $5.3 million in the third quarter of 2024. The increase resulted from targeted growth investments in sales, marketing, and product development to advance Aware's go-to-market strategy. Net loss totaled $1.1 million, or $(0.05) per diluted share, an improvement compared to net loss of $1.2 million, or $(0.06) per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2024. Adjusted EBITDA loss (a non-GAAP metric reconciled below) totaled $0.8 million, an improvement compared to adjusted EBITDA loss of $1.1 million in the third quarter of 2024. The improvement was primarily due to increased total revenue, partially offset by higher operating expenses. As of September 30, 2025, cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities totaled $22.5 million, compared to $27.8 million as of December 31, 2024. The change primarily reflects the operating loss for the period and normal fluctuations in working capital, including timing of accounts receivable collections. Nine Month 2025 Financial Results Revenue was $12.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024. Operating expenses were $17.7 million, compared to $16.7 million in the same year-ago period. Net loss totaled $4.4 million, or $(0.21) per diluted share, compared to net loss of $3.2 million, or $(0.15) per diluted share, in the same year-ago period. Adjusted EBITDA loss (a non-GAAP metric reconciled below) totaled $3.8 million, compared to adjusted EBITDA loss of $3.0 million in the same year-ago period.

We discuss adjusted EBITDA in our quarterly earnings releases and certain other communications, as we believe adjusted EBITDA is an important measure. We use adjusted EBITDA in internal forecasts and models when establishing internal operating budgets, supplementing the financial results and forecasts reported to our Board of Directors, and evaluating short-term and long-term operating trends in our operations. We believe that the adjusted EBITDA financial measure assists in providing an enhanced understanding of our underlying operational measures to manage the business, to evaluate performance compared to prior periods and the marketplace, and to establish operational goals. We believe that the adjusted EBITDA adjustments are useful to investors because they allow investors to evaluate the effectiveness of the methodology and information used by management in our financial and operational decision-making. We define recurring revenue as the portion of Aware revenue that is based on a term arrangement and is likely to continue in the future, such as annual maintenance or subscription contracts. We use recurring revenue as a metric to communicate the portion of our revenue that has greater stability and predictability. We believe that recurring revenue assists in providing an enhanced understanding of effectiveness of our efforts to transition to a subscription-based business model. Adjusted EBITDA and recurring revenue are non-GAAP financial measures and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial information provided in accordance with U.S. GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measure may not be computed in the same manner as similarly titled measures used by other companies. We expect to continue to incur expenses similar to the financial adjustments described above in arriving at adjusted EBITDA and investors should not infer from our presentation of this non-GAAP financial measure that these costs are unusual, infrequent or non-recurring. The following table includes the reconciliations of our U.S. GAAP net income (loss), the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure, to our adjusted EBITDA for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 and (ii) our U.S. GAAP revenue, the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure, to our recurring revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024.
