Aware: quarterlies, annuals, SEC actions

August 20, 2024 – Recent measures taken by Aware to boost income from its biometric software and optimize cost efficiency have led to improvements in the company’s top- and bottom-line results.

Aware reports a 36 percent rise in revenues for the second quarter of 2024, on a year-over-year basis, to $4.3 million.  Operating expenses were down by $0.5 million in the quarter, to $5.7 million. Net loss for Q2 was $1.1 million, or $0.05 per diluted share, compared to $2.7 million or $0.13 per diluted share in Q2 2023.

For the first half of 2024, Aware reduced its GAAP net loss by 51 percent to just under $2.1 million.

Management commentary accompanying the results suggests that the company will end 2024 with double-digit growth reach “sustainable positive cash flow in 2025.”

Q1 another step towards positive cash flow for Aware

May 5, 2024 – Aware’s revenues from its biometric software ticked up by 3 percent to $4.4 million in the first quarter of its fiscal 2024.

Operating expenses declined at the same time, by 8 percent to $5.7 million, leading to a net loss of $1 million, or $0.05 per diluted share. That is a 30 percent improvement from last year’s Q1 net loss of $1.6 million, or $0.07 per diluted shared.

CEO Robert Eckel says recurring revenue from more customers, streamlined costs, including a ten percent reduction in headcount, new customers and expanded relationships with existing customers set Aware up “to achieve sustainable growth and positive cash flow.”

November 2, 2023 – Aware’s revenue from sales of its biometric platform surged by 112 percent in its third fiscal quarter of 2023, compared to the same quarter a year ago, reaching $6.4 million, the company has announced.

The company’s $2.5 million in operating cashflow represented the highest amount since late-2018, while net income totalled $1.1 million, or $0.05 per diluted share.
