  • Our net loss for Q1 2026 was $620,612, compared to a net loss of $499,811 in Q1 2025, a decrease in profitability of $120,801

Management Commentary

“We are excited by the continued growth reflected in our quarterly performance” said Robert J. Thompson, Chairman of the Board at QuoteMedia. “Our revenue increased 15% and we completed several significant new agreements that we expect to contribute to revenue for the remainder of in 2026, and in future periods. We are also in advanced negotiations for additional large-scale deployments that we expect will continue our momentum and growth.”

Despite our impressive revenue growth, earnings and EBITDA declined in comparison to the comparative quarter, primarily due to the accounting for capitalized development costs:

  • As we shift towards refinements and maintenance of our product line, a smaller proportion of development costs were capitalized compared to prior quarters, resulting in a higher level of immediate expense recognition.
  • As capitalized development costs are amortized over a three-year period, amortization expense remains elevated due to investments made in prior periods, temporarily reducing net income.
  • While these factors negatively impacted reported earnings and EBITDA, they had no effect on cash flow.

Outlook

“We began 2026 with solid momentum and expect it will continue through the remainder of the year and beyond,” added Robert J. Thompson. “Our sales and development pipelines continue to be strong, and we’re proud of our team’s consistent success in securing and executing strategic high-value agreements.”

Note 1 on Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We believe that Adjusted EBITDA, as a non-GAAP pro forma financial measure, provides meaningful information to investors in terms of enhancing their understanding of our operating performance and results, as it allows investors to more easily compare our financial performance on a consistent basis compared to the prior year periods. This non-GAAP financial measure also corresponds with the way we expect investment analysts to evaluate and compare our results. Any non-GAAP pro forma financial measures should be considered only as supplements to, and not as substitutes for or in isolation from, or superior to, our other measures of financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP, such as net income attributable to QuoteMedia, Inc.

We define and calculate Adjusted EBITDA as net income attributable to QuoteMedia, Inc., plus: 1) depreciation and amortization, 2) stock compensation expense, 3) interest expense, 4) foreign exchange loss (or minus a foreign exchange gain), and 5) income tax expense. We disclose Adjusted EBITDA because we believe it is a useful metric by which to compare the performance of our business from period to period. We understand that measures similar to Adjusted EBITDA are broadly used by analysts, rating agencies, investors and financial institutions in assessing our performance. Accordingly, we believe that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors. The table below provides a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net income attributable to QuoteMedia, Inc., the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.
