Exhibit A
March 18, 2026
The Board of Directors Perfect Corp. 14F, No. 98 Minquan Road Xindian District New Taipei City 231 Taiwan
Dear Sirs and Madam:
Ms. Alice H. Chang (“Ms. Chang”), and her controlled entities GOLDEN EDGE CO., LTD., DVDonet.com. Inc. and World Speed Company Limited (collectively, the “Chairwoman Parties”), and CyberLink International Technology Corp. (“CyberLink”, together with Chairwoman Parties, the “Consortium Members”) are pleased to submit this preliminary non-binding proposal to acquire Perfect Corp. (the “Company”) in a going private transaction (the “Acquisition”).
We believe that our proposal provides a very attractive opportunity to the Company’s shareholders. Our proposal represents a premium of 44.4% to the Company’s closing price on March 17, 2026 and a premium of 35.4% and 23.4% to the volume-weighted average closing price during the last 30 and 60 trading days, respectively.
Consortium. The Consortium Members have entered into a consortium agreement dated March 18, 2026, pursuant to which the Consortium Members will form an acquisition company for the purpose of implementing the Acquisition, and the Consortium Members have agreed to work exclusively in pursuing the Acquisition.
Purchase Price. The consideration payable for each Class A ordinary share of the Company will be US$1.95 per ordinary share in cash (in each case other than those ordinary shares held by the Consortium Members that may be rolled over in connection with the Acquisition).
Closing Certainty. We believe that our proposal offers a high degree of closing certainty and are well positioned to negotiate and complete the proposed Acquisition on an expedited basis.
Financing. We intend to finance the Acquisition with equity capital from the Consortium Members in the form of rollover equity in the Company and available unrestricted cash from the Company. Debt financing may also be arranged to the extent necessary or desirable at the sole discretion of the Consortium Members.
Definitive Agreements. We are prepared to promptly negotiate and finalize definitive agreements (the “Definitive Agreements”) providing for the Acquisition and related transactions. These documents will provide for representations, warranties, covenants and conditions that are typical, customary and appropriate for transactions of this type.
Process. We believe that the Acquisition will provide superior value to the Company’s shareholders. We recognize that the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) will evaluate the Acquisition independently before it can make its determination to endorse it, and we expect that the Board will establish a special committee comprised of independent and disinterested directors of the Company (the “Special Committee”).
Given the involvement of the Chairwoman Parties and CyberLink in the Acquisition, we appreciate that the independent members of the Board will proceed to consider the proposed Acquisition, and that each of Ms. Chang and Mr. Jau-Hsiung Huang will recuse herself / himself, as director of the Board, from participating in any Board deliberations and decisions related to the Acquisition. We expect that the Special Committee and its advisors will be exclusively authorized to consider and negotiate with us the proposed Acquisition, including the Definitive Agreements, and that no other members of management or any directors other than the members of the Special Committee will participate in any deliberations and decisions related to the Acquisition unless their involvement is approved by the Special Committee.
Consortium Members in the aggregate beneficially own approximately 53.4% of the total issued and outstanding share capital of the Company (excluding any ordinary shares issuable upon the Consortium Members’ exercise of options or warrants within 60 days), representing 81.2% of the total voting power of the Company, as calculated based on a total number of 101,848,671 issued and outstanding ordinary shares (consisting of 85,059,953 Class A ordinary shares and 16,788,718 Class B ordinary shares) of the Company as of December 31, 2025.
Confidentiality. Each of the Consortium Members will, as required by law, promptly file an amendment to its respective Schedule 13D to disclose this letter and the agreement among the Consortium Members. However, we are sure you will agree with us that it is in all of our interests to ensure that we proceed in a strictly confidential manner, unless otherwise required by law, until we have executed Definitive Agreements or terminated our discussions.
No Binding Commitment. This letter constitutes only a preliminary indication of our interest, and does not constitute any binding commitment with respect to the Acquisition. A binding commitment will result only from the execution of Definitive Agreements, and then will be on terms and conditions provided in such documentation.
In closing, we would like to express our commitment to working together to bring this Acquisition to a successful and timely conclusion. Should you have any questions regarding this proposal, please do not hesitate to contact us. We look forward to hearing from you.
OVERLAND PARK, Kan.–(BUSINESS WIRE)– SelectQuote, Inc. (NYSE: SLQT) (the “Company”), a leading distributor of Medicare insurance policies and owner of a rapidly-growing healthcare services platform, today announced an initiative to expand its reach and complement its existing, telephonic insurance distribution model.
SelectQuote Local will leverage the Company’s industry-leading marketing, technology, customer service, and carrier relationships to offer consumers its senior health and life insurance products through a franchise model offering local sales and support. SelectQuote Local provides consumers the opportunity to meet with local representatives while still offering the Company’s same affordable and simple way to quickly and easily find the type of insurance to meet their unique needs. Franchise owners will have an opportunity to purchase rights to operate their SelectQuote Local franchise in a particular geographic region, providing a compelling business opportunity for them and an exciting new growth opportunity for the Company.
“We see SelectQuote Local as a natural extension of our existing SelectQuote business. With over four decades as a pioneering insurance brokerage, we have optimized our approach to marketing, shopping, selling, and customer service. We’ve helped millions of customers find the best insurance coverage to meet their unique needs. We believe SelectQuote Local creates an opportunity to extend our reach to more consumers, namely those who wish to do business with someone in their local market,” said Bill Grant, SelectQuote’s Chief Operating Officer. “It’s the perfect complement to our existing platform and, given our diversified business model that extends across senior health and healthcare services as well as term life and final expense product offerings, SelectQuote is uniquely positioned to deliver on this market opportunity. No one else can match our breadth of offerings, our capabilities, our experience, or our expertise.”
SelectQuote Chief Financial Officer Ryan Clement added, “From a financial perspective, we think SelectQuote Local provides an exciting and cash efficient opportunity to leverage our proven technology and carrier platform to drive increased scale to our insurance distribution business. We expect the SelectQuote Local model to require a low level of capital investment from the Company and, over time, to create a recurring royalty stream providing compelling cash-on-cash returns for shareholders. In addition, our highly-complementary SelectRx pharmacy and healthcare services business continues to grow more cash generative. We are already projecting meaningful operating cash flow for this fiscal year and expect cash generation to increase in the quarters and years to come. When paired with our recently finalized $415 million credit facility, SelectQuote Local, alongside our growing healthcare services business, provides a path to increasing scale and to accelerating our progress toward de-levering the business.”

For a further discussion of these and other risk factors that could impact our future results and performance, see the section entitled “Risk Factors” in the most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K (the “Annual Report”) and subsequent periodic reports filed by us with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, you should not place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements.

2025 Revenue up 7% Year-Over-Year to $614.9 Million
2025 Net Income of $5.1 Million vs. $7.8 Million in 2024
2025 Gross Profit up 30% Year-Over-Year to $105.6 Million
2025 Adjusted EBITDA up 42% Year-Over-Year to $56.4 Million
ATLANTA , March 16, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Bitcoin Depot (Nasdaq: BTM) (“Bitcoin Depot” or the “Company”), a U.S.-based Bitcoin ATM (“BTM”) operator and leading fintech company, today reported financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2025. Bitcoin Depot will host a conference call and webcast at 10:00 a.m. ET today. An earnings presentation and link to the webcast will be made available at ir.bitcoindepot.com.
“2025 was a strong year for Bitcoin Depot, with growth across the majority of our key operating and financial metrics,” said Scott Buchanan, CEO of Bitcoin Depot. “While fourth-quarter results declined year-over-year, this was primarily driven by recently enacted state regulations that introduced transaction size caps and, to a lesser extent, enhancements to our compliance standards that modestly affected near-term transaction activity. Importantly, we view both developments as constructive for the long-term health, credibility, and sustainability of the industry.”
“As the largest and most compliant crypto ATM operator in North America, we believe Bitcoin Depot is uniquely positioned to navigate this evolving regulatory environment and continue to gain share as the market matures,” Buchanan continued. “Subsequent to year-end, we further strengthened our growth profile by deploying our strong balance sheet and fintech platform to acquire Kutt, a peer-to-peer social betting platform. This acquisition marks our first entry into the P2P social betting market and reflects our broader strategy to thoughtfully diversify beyond our core Bitcoin ATM business while leveraging our payments infrastructure and compliance expertise.”
Fourth Quarter 2025 Financial Results
Revenue in the fourth quarter of 2025 was $116.0 million compared to $136.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2024. This decrease was driven by recently enacted state regulations and enhanced compliance standards.
Gross profit in the fourth quarter of 2025 was $15.3 million from $23.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2024. Gross profit margin in the fourth quarter of 2025 was 13.2% compared to 17.2% in the fourth quarter of 2024. Adjusted gross profit, a non-GAAP measure, in the fourth quarter of 2025 was $17.3 million compared to $25.4 million in the year ago quarter. Adjusted gross profit margin, a non-GAAP measure, in the fourth quarter of 2025 was 14.9% compared to 18.6% in the year ago quarter. Please see “Explanation and Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below.
Total operating expenses in the fourth quarter of 2025 were $21.4 million compared to $15.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2025 due to higher legal services and compensation expense.
Net loss in the fourth quarter of 2025 was $24.9 million compared to net income of $5.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2024. The fourth quarter of 2025 included an $18.5 million accrual for an arbitration judgment liability. Net loss attributable to common shareholders in the fourth quarter of 2025 was $21.6 million, or $(2.08) per share, compared to a net loss of $6.6 million, or $(2.24) per share, in last year’s fourth quarter.
Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, in the fourth quarter of 2025 was $1.6 million compared to $13.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2024. The decrease was primarily due to the lower revenue and higher operating expenses. Please see “Explanation and Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below.
Cash, cash equivalents, and cryptocurrencies as of December 31, 2025, totaled $76.6 million, up from $31.0 million at the end of 2024.
Net cash flows provided by operations in 2025 increased 51% to $34.0 million compared to $22.5 million in 2024.
2025 Financial Results
Revenue in 2025 increased 7% to $614.9 million compared to $573.7 million in 2024. This increase was driven by increased kiosk deployment and higher median transaction size.
Gross profit in 2025 increased 30% to $105.6 million from $81.5 million in 2024. Gross profit margin in 2025 increased 300 basis points to 17.2% compared to 14.2% in 2024. Adjusted gross profit, a non-GAAP measure, increased 24% to $113.3 million compared to $91.4 million in 2024. Adjusted gross profit margin, a non-GAAP measure, increased 250 basis points in 2025 to 18.4% compared to 15.9% in 2024. Please see “Explanation and Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below.
Total operating expenses were $72.1 million in 2025 compared to $67.2 million in 2024 due to higher legal services expenses.
Net income in 2025 was $5.1 million compared to $7.8 million in 2024. 2025 included a $18.5 million accrual for an arbitration judgment liability. Net loss attributable to common shareholders was $5.8 million, or $(0.81) per share, from a net loss of $11.7 million, or $(4.21) per share, in 2024.
Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, in 2025 increased 42% to $56.4 million compared to $39.7 million in 2024. The increase was primarily due to the higher revenue and income from operations. Please see “Explanation and Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below.
Outlook
The Company expects revenue for the core business in 2026 to be down in the range of 30% to 40%. This estimate reflects the uncertainty presented by the dynamic regulatory environment and enhanced compliance standards. While these will weigh on near-term results, we believe they will reinforce the integrity and sustainability of our business over the long term.

STAMFORD, Conn.–(BUSINESS WIRE)– Information Services Group (ISG) (Nasdaq: III), a global AI-centered technology research and advisory firm, today announced financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2025.
“ISG had a strong Q4 and an outstanding year, fueled by continuing client interest in our AI-powered transformation services,” said Michael P. Connors, chairman and CEO. “Fourth-quarter revenue growth was led by Europe, up 28 percent, and by recurring revenues, up 13 percent. From a profitability standpoint, adjusted EBITDA was up 24 percent, with adjusted EBITDA margins expanding nearly 200 basis points. For the full year, revenue growth was led by the Americas, up 11 percent, excluding 2024 automation results, and our adjusted EBITDA was up 28 percent, while cash from operations rose 46 percent, to $29 million, all versus prior year.”
Commenting on AI demand, Connors said, “Clients overall remain cautious in a still-uncertain macro environment but continue to invest in AI-related business transformation, cost optimization and insights to plan the journey ahead. In 2025, we served more than 350 clients with AI-focused research and advisory services, three times more than the prior year.”
More broadly speaking, Connors said, “Clients are demanding business outcomes, a reshaping of their partner ecosystems and broader capability. This plays to our strengths.

AI Maturity Index Acquisition and AI Acceleration Strategy
In January 2026, ISG announced the acquisition of the AI Maturity Index, an AI readiness benchmarking and intelligence platform that allows clients to assess and track the AI readiness of their workforces on an individual and enterprise level and improve their employees’ ability to leverage AI technology. The ISG AI Maturity platform is already generating strong interest, ISG said, with an early pipeline of more than 30 clients.
The move is part of ISG’s broader AI acceleration strategy that includes the formation of an AI Acceleration Unit that brings an integrated, expert-led approach to helping clients rapidly scale AI.
ISG also is leveraging AI to improve the speed and efficiency of its proprietary client platforms, most notably ISG Tango™, the firm’s groundbreaking sourcing platform. More than $25 billion of sourcing contract value now flows through ISG Tango™, up more than three times from 2024.

Forward-Looking Statements
This communication contains “forward-looking statements” which represent the current expectations and beliefs of management of ISG concerning future events and their potential effects. Statements contained herein including words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “contemplate,” “plan,” “estimate,” “target,” “expect,” “intend,” “will,” “continue,” “should,” “may,” and other similar expressions, are “forward-looking statements” under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future results and are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated. Those risks relate to inherent business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies relating to the businesses of ISG and its subsidiaries including without limitation: (1) failure to secure new engagements or loss of important clients; (2) ability to hire and retain enough qualified employees to support operations; (3) ability to maintain or increase billing and utilization rates; (4) management of growth; (5) success of expansion internationally; (6) competition; (7) ability to move the product mix into higher margin businesses; (8) general political and social conditions such as war, political unrest and terrorism; (9) healthcare and benefit cost management; (10) ability to protect ISG and its subsidiaries’ intellectual property or data and the intellectual property or data of others; (11) currency fluctuations and exchange rate adjustments; (12) ability to successfully consummate or integrate strategic acquisitions; (13) outbreaks of diseases, including coronavirus, or similar public health threats or fear of such an event; (14) engagements may be terminated, delayed or reduced in scope by clients; (15) the effect of the divestiture of the automation unit on ISG’s relationships with its customers and suppliers and on its retained business generally; (16) the success of ISG’s focus on AI advisory and AI-powered platforms; (17) changes to trade policy, including new or increased tariffs and changing import/export regulations, and (18) potential employment-related claims. Certain of these and other applicable risks, cautionary statements and factors that could cause actual results to differ from ISG’s forward-looking statements are included in ISG’s filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. ISG undertakes no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements to reflect subsequent events or circumstances.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
ISG reports all financial information required in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). In this release, ISG has presented both GAAP financial results as well as non-GAAP information for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024. ISG believes that evaluating its ongoing operating results will be enhanced if it discloses certain non-GAAP information. These non-GAAP financial measures exclude non-cash and certain other special charges that many investors believe may obscure the user’s overall understanding of ISG’s current financial performance and ISG’s prospects for the future. ISG believes that these non-GAAP measures provide useful information to investors because they improve the comparability of the financial results between periods and provide for greater transparency of key measures used to evaluate the Company’s performance.
ISG provides adjusted EBITDA (defined as net income, plus interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, foreign currency transaction gains/losses, non-cash stock compensation, interest accretion associated with contingent consideration, acquisition- and disposition-related costs, loss on disposal of assets, gain on sale of business, change in contingent consideration, and severance, integration and other expense), adjusted net income (defined as net income, plus amortization of intangible assets, non-cash stock compensation, foreign currency transaction gains/losses, interest accretion associated with contingent consideration, acquisition- and disposition-related costs, loss on disposal of assets, gain on sale of business, change in contingent consideration, and severance, integration and other expense on a tax-adjusted basis), adjusted net income per diluted share, adjusted EBITDA margin, and selected financial data on a constant currency basis which are non-GAAP measures that ISG believes provide useful information to both management and investors by excluding certain expenses and financial implications of foreign currency translations, which management believes are not indicative of ISG’s core operations. These non-GAAP measures are used by ISG to evaluate the Company’s business strategies and management’s performance.
We evaluate our results of operations on both an as reported and a constant currency basis. The constant currency presentation, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, excludes the impact of year-over-year fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. We believe providing constant currency information provides valuable supplemental information regarding our results of operations, thereby facilitating period-to-period comparisons of our business performance and is consistent with how management evaluates the Company’s performance. We calculate constant currency percentages by converting our current and prior-periods local currency financial results using the same point in time exchange rates and then compare the adjusted current and prior period results. This calculation may differ from similarly titled measures used by others and, accordingly, the constant currency presentation is not meant to be a substitution for recorded amounts presented in conformity with GAAP, nor should such amounts be considered in isolation.
Management believes this information facilitates comparison of underlying results over time. Non-GAAP financial measures, when presented, are reconciled to the most closely applicable GAAP measure. Non-GAAP measures are provided as additional information and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for results prepared in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of the forward-looking non-GAAP estimates contained herein to the corresponding GAAP measures is not being provided, due to the unreasonable efforts required to prepare it.

NEW YORK–(BUSINESS WIRE)– Perfect Corp.

Financial Results for the Three Months Ended December 31, 2025
Revenue
Total revenue was $18.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 2025, compared to $15.9 million in the same period of 2024, an increase of 14.2%. The increase was primarily due to strong growth momentum in the revenue of mobile app and web services subscriptions.
AI- and AR- cloud solutions and subscription revenue was $16.4 million for the three months ended December 31, 2025, compared to $15.1 million in the same period of 2024, an increase of 8.7%. The increase was driven by the continued revenue growth of YouCam mobile apps and web services subscriptions, the continued popularity among consumers of Generative AI technologies and AI editing features for photos and videos, and the stable demand for the Company’s online virtual product try-on solutions from brand customers.
Licensing revenue was $0.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2025, compared to $0.5 million in the same period of 2024, an increase of 8.0%.
Others revenue was $1.2 million for the three months ended December 31, 2025, compared to $0.3 million in the same period of 2024, an increase of 286.1%. The increase was driven by the growth of virtual points purchased and consumed by end users. Virtual points are used for AI-powered services available on YouCam mobile apps and web services.
Gross Profit
Gross profit was $14.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2025, compared with $11.8 million in the same period of 2024, an increase of 24.1%. Gross margin was 80.5% for the three months ended December 31, 2025, up from 74.1% in the same period of 2024. The increase in gross margin during this quarter was primarily due to the increased operational efficiency resulting from the ongoing realignment of engineering professionals as we continue to transition from customization of software toward more standardized AI solutions for our customer base.
Total Operating Expenses
Total operating expenses were $15.2 million for the three months ended December 31, 2025, compared with $12.2 million in the same period of 2024, an increase of 24.1%. The increase was primarily due to increases in research and development expenses and sales and marketing expenses, which were partially offset by a decrease in general and administrative expenses in the fourth quarter of 2025.
Sales and marketing expenses were $7.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 2025, compared to $6.9 million during the same period of 2024, an increase of 11.4%. This increase was primarily due to an increase in marketing events and advertising expenses related to our mobile apps and web services subscription.
Research and development expenses were $3.9 million for the three months ended December 31, 2025, compared to $2.8 million during the same period of 2024, an increase of 39.6%. The increase was primarily due to an increase in R&D headcount and related personnel costs including those arising from the acquisition of Wannaby Inc. (“Wannaby”), which was completed in January 2025.
General and administrative expenses were $1.5 million for the three months ended December 31, 2025, compared to $1.8 million during the same period of 2024, a decrease of 11.9%. The decrease was primarily due to reduced corporate insurance premium and external professional service fees.
Impairment loss on goodwill was $2.0 million for the three months ended December 31, 2025. No such impairment was recorded in the same period of 2024. This non-cash item increase was primarily due to the recognition of an impairment loss on goodwill arising from the acquisition of Wannaby in January 2025.
Operating Loss
Total operating loss was $0.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2025, compared with an operating loss of $0.5 million in the same period of 2024, representing an increase of $0.1 million. The increase in operating loss was primarily driven by the recognition of an impairment loss of $2.0 million relating to goodwill arising from the acquisition of Wannaby in 2025.
Net Income
Net income was $0.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 2025, compared to $1.1 million during the same period of 2024, a decrease of 94.2%. The decrease in net income was primarily due to the recognition of an impairment loss of $2.0 million relating to goodwill arising from the acquisition of Wannaby in 2025 and the lower interest income resulting from a decline in interest rates.
Operating Cash Flow
Operating cash flow was $2.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2025, compared to $3.3 million in the same period of 2024, a decrease of 21.6%.
Financial Results for the Year Ended December 31, 2025

AI- and AR- cloud solutions and subscription revenue was $61.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $53.8 million in the same period of 2024, an increase of 13.5%. The increase was driven by the continued revenue growth of YouCam mobile apps and web services subscriptions.
Licensing revenue was $5.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $5.2 million in the same period of 2024, an increase of 1.7%.
Others revenue was $2.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $1.2 million in the same period of 2024, an increase of 133.8%. The increase was primarily driven by the growth of virtual points purchased and consumed by end users.

Total Operating Expenses
Total operating expenses were $55.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared with $50.1 million in the same period of 2024, an increase of 10.3%. The increase was primarily due to increases in research and development expenses and sales and marketing expenses, which were partially offset by a decrease in general and administrative expenses during the same period.
Sales and marketing expenses were $30.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $28.2 million during the same period of 2024, an increase of 9.2%.
Research and development expenses were $15.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $12.0 million during the same period of 2024, an increase of 28.4%.
General and administrative expenses were $7.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $8.5 million during the same period of 2024, a decrease of 17.7%.
Impairment loss on goodwill was $2.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2025. No such impairment was recorded in the same period of 2024. This non-cash item increase was driven by the recognition of an impairment loss on goodwill arising from the acquisition of Wannaby in 2025.
Operating Loss
Total operating loss was $1.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared with an operating loss of $3.1 million in the same period of 2024, a decrease of $1.4 million. The decrease in operating loss was primarily driven by higher revenue and gross profit, with operating expenses growing at a more moderate pace, which was partially offset by recognition of an impairment loss of $2.0 million on goodwill arising from the acquisition of Wannaby in 2025.
Net Income
Net income was $4.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $5.0 million during the same period of 2024, a decrease of 7.5%.

Operating cash flow was $13.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $13.0 million in the same period of 2024, an increase of 2.3%. The Company continues to invest in growth while maintaining a healthy cash flow to support business operations underscoring the Company’s operational health and sustainability.
Capital Resource
As of December 31, 2025, the Company’s cash and cash equivalents remained stable at $126.0 million (or $172.4 million when including 6-month time deposits of $36.3 million and US Treasuries of $10.2 million, which are classified as current and non-current financial assets at amortized cost under IFRS, respectively), compared to $127.1 million (or $165.9 million when including time deposits and money market funds) as of December 31, 2024.
Key Business Metrics
The number of active subscribers for the Company’s YouCam mobile apps and web services was 908,000 as of December 31, 2025, compared to over 946,000 as of September 30, 2025, a decrease of 4.0%. This decline was a result of the mobile app subscription plan’s average selling price increase initiative introduced in early 2025, which strategically prioritized higher revenue per user and long-term monetization efficiency over short-term volume growth.
As of December 31, 2025, the Company’s cumulative customer base included 859 brand clients, with over 982,000 digital stock keeping units (“SKUs”) for makeup, haircare, skincare, shoes, bags, eyewear, watches and jewelry products, compared to 842 brand clients and over 953,000 digital SKUs as of September 30, 2025. The number of Key Customers 1 of the Company as of December 31, 2025 was 135 compared to 142 as of September 30, 2025. The decline in the number of Key Customers was primarily due to certain customers being downgraded as a result of lower spending during the period.

CEO Remarks and Business Outlook for 2026
Ms. Alice H. Chang, Founder, Chairwoman, and Chief Executive Officer of Perfect Corp., commented, “Perfect Corp. closed 2025 on a strong note, exceeding our full-year guidance and demonstrating the strength of our execution. Our results for the year were driven primarily by continued growth in our B2C mobile apps and web service subscriber base, reflecting strong demand from individual beauty enthusiasts and consumers who value personalization, performance, and the ability to create customized content powered by generative AI. Our sustained focus on AI remains a core driver of innovation across the business, and this momentum positions us well as we enter the next phase of growth, with an increased focus on Agentic AI and API-based solutions.
“We continue to invest in the development of new products and services, including Generative AI beauty solutions, while driving greater operational efficiencies across the organization. This disciplined execution delivered strong revenue growth, a meaningful improvement in company operation, reduction of operating loss, and sustained cash flow generation. As a result, we ended 2025 with a strong cash position, providing the flexibility to invest strategically and support our long-term growth objectives. While the Company reported an operating loss for the period, this was primarily driven by an impairment loss of goodwill charge related to the acquisition of Wannaby. Excluding this non-cash item, the Company would have generated operating income for the fourth quarter and full year of 2025. Perfect Corp. will continue to work toward operating income under IFRS reporting standards in the near term, reflecting the scalability and discipline of its business model. Reaching this milestone would mark a pivotal moment in the Company’s journey, validating years of investment in platform development, AI innovation, and go-to-market execution.
“Our B2C app and web subscription business continues to be the primary driver of growth in 2025, with increases in both revenue per user and user engagement following the price adjustment implemented last year. While subscriber churn was modestly higher, we are seeing an increase in demand for AI-driven image and video editing and creation, reflecting a continued shift toward creativity and personalization powered by AI. Building on this momentum, we plan to introduce additional generative AI capabilities—such as more personalized interactions with our AI Agent and expanded video-mode support—further enhancing the functionality and value of our apps. Our YouCam app suite continues to set the standard for AI-powered creativity and self-expression, offering some of the most popular features in the market, including face reshaping, wrinkle removal, image-to-video, text-to-image, and image-to-image editing and creation. Central to these capabilities is YouCam’s AI Agent, powered by third party large language models (LLMs), which enables users to enhance and edit photos, generate videos, or create AI images simply from a text prompt. Together, these tools deliver a seamless, intelligent, and highly personalized experience that empowers users to express themselves in entirely new ways.
“Perfect’s Beauty AI Agent goes beyond a traditional LLM application by adding a purpose-built intelligence layer on top of the core model. Rather than relying solely on prompt engineering and linear processing, we apply context engineering to modularize inputs, classify intent, and route tasks through parallel sub-agents—resulting in faster response times, higher precision, and reduced hallucination risk. By combining Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) with precision engineering, our agent doesn’t just talk; it can see, score, and recommend with proven accuracy across product virtual try-ons and skin analysis use cases. This architecture positions Perfect Corp. as a Beauty AI infrastructure, delivered through enterprise-grade Widgets, Software Development Kits (SDKs), and Application Programming Interfaces (APIs), and designed with brand safety, governance, and auditability at its core.
“As previously mentioned, our API business is steadily taking shape across multiple growth vectors. Since 2025, Perfect Corp. has built a comprehensive API suite supporting beauty, skin, jewelry, fashion, shoes and apparel industries. Firstly, our agency strategy allows us to act as a force multiplier by embedding our API-driven solutions directly into agency workflows, enabling faster deployment and broader reach. Secondly, we are expanding into new verticals, including the medical and dermatology segments, where our Skin AI technology enhances patient engagement through advanced visualization and personalized experiences. We are also extending our visual commerce capabilities beyond beauty, using virtual try-on to elevate product visualization across categories such as jewelry, shoes, watches, hair, and accessories, further diversifying our addressable market and long-term growth potential.
“Looking ahead to 2026, we see a strong outlook for our B2C apps and web service subscription business, while the B2B enterprise segment is expected to remain more cautious, with limited near-term growth. Against this backdrop, we are continuing our evolution from a tactical service provider to a strategic technology partner, focused on delivering durable, long-term value for our customers. What began as virtual try-on capabilities has expanded into a comprehensive visual commerce enablement platform, powered by Generative AI and an API-first architecture that integrates seamlessly into our partners’ ecosystems. At the same time, we are progressing beyond siloed point solutions toward a unified AI agent capable of operating across multiple roles—delivering a more intelligent, scalable, and impactful omni-solution for both consumers and brands.”
Business Outlook for 2026
Driven by continued revenue growth in both YouCam mobile apps and web service subscriptions, along with sustained demand for our enterprise solutions, the Company expects the full year 2026 total revenue to increase by approximately 10% with a range of plus or minus 2% compared to full year 2025. This forecast is based on the Company’s current assessment of the market and operational conditions, and that these factors are subject to change.

Safety Standardization Mandatory Code / Insurance Specification and Recommendation:
SKYX’s Safety Code Standardization Team is receiving support from a new significant prominent leader with its government safety agency’s process for a safety mandatory standardization of its electrical ceiling outlet/receptacle technology.
SKYX’s code team is led by industry veterans Mark Earley, former head of the National Electrical Code (NEC), and Eric Jacobson, former President and CEO of the American Lighting Association (ALA). The Company’s safety Code Standardization team believes it will garner assistance from additional safety organizations with its code mandatory safety standardization efforts based on the product’s significant safety aspects. Mr. Earley and Mr. Jacobson were instrumental in numerous code and safety changes in both the electrical and lighting industries. Both strongly believe that, considering the Company’s standardization progress including its product specification approval voting for by ANSI / NEMA (American National Standardization Institute / National Electrical Manufacturers Association) and being voted into 10 segments in the NEC Code Book, it has met the necessary safety conditions for becoming a ceiling safety standardization requirement for homes and buildings.
With respect to insurance companies, the Company strongly believes its products can save insurance companies many billions of dollars annually by reducing fires, ladder falls, and electrocutions among other things. Management expects that once it completes an entire range and variations of its safe advanced plug & play products it will start being recommended by insurance companies.

Alabama becomes the first Conduent-supported state – and only the second state in the nation – to roll out chip-enabled EBT cards statewide
Chips allow beneficiaries to insert their cards into point-of-sale terminals, significantly enhancing the security of SNAP and TANF accounts
FLORHAM PARK, N.J. — Conduent Incorporated (Nasdaq: CNDT), a global technology-driven business solutions and services company, today announced its collaboration with the Alabama Department of Human Resources (DHR) to introduce chip-enabled EBT cards designed to help prevent fraud. The new cards, now mailed to EBT cardholders across the state, are expected to significantly enhance account security for beneficiaries, including those in the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) and the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) program.
Across the country, states have reported a sharp rise in fraud attempts targeting EBT cards, which traditionally rely on magnetic stripes and are vulnerable to skimming – where criminals install devices on point-of-sale terminals to steal card information. With chip technology, Alabama cardholders can now insert their cards into the terminals rather than swiping them, adding a critical layer of protection.
Following a pilot program launched in December, Alabama is the first Conduent-supported state – and only the second state nationwide – to introduce EBT cards to all cardholders. Additional states are preparing similar rollouts.
“I am so pleased to finally bring this instrumental change to our EBT cardholders statewide,” said Alabama DHR Commissioner Nancy Buckner. “After a successful pilot program, we have shown that these new cards are easy to use and offer much better protection for the benefits. I am pleased that with this chip technology upgrade, our clients can have more confidence that their benefits will be there when they purchase groceries. This is not the end; we will continue to work and develop new and innovative ways to better protect our clients and their benefits.”
“We are honored to help Alabama DHR lead the way in giving their beneficiaries this critically important tool to protect their accounts and funds,” said Anna Sever, President, Government Solutions at Conduent. “Transitioning to chip technology is a proven fraud-prevention strategy. Chip cards are widely used across the country for other types of accounts, and EBT payments deserve the same level of security.”
SNAP and TANF recipients in Alabama and several other states can also use Conduent’s ConnectEBT mobile app and cardholder portal, which allow beneficiaries to lock their accounts to block all purchases, providing greater control and helping prevent unauthorized transactions.
In addition, with Conduent’s support, Alabama DHR recently implemented a system enhancement that automatically defaults all EBT cards to block out-of-state and online transactions. Cardholders who wish to make these types of purchases can easily unlock their card through the ConnectEBT app or portal.
The technologies are part of Conduent’s VeriSight Anti-Fraud Suite, a set of innovative solutions that help agencies address fraud risks in public benefit programs. The suite includes adaptive fraud detection tools for EBT customer service centers that can identify and block suspicious activity, such as unusual phone numbers or high call volumes.
Conduent is a national leader in government payment disbursements, and it currently supports electronic payments for public programs in 37 states. Conduent also supports U.S. government agencies with end-to-end solutions for healthcare claims processing, eligibility and enrollment, and child support administration.

I’ve been impressed by the strength of our people, our capabilities, and the opportunities to deepen adoption of our AI‑ and GenAI‑enabled solutions.”

Performance Commentary At the end of 2025, Conduent maintained a cash balance of $243 million along with $223 million unused capacity under its recently renewed credit facility.
Full year 2025 pre-tax income (loss) was $(160) million versus $504 million in the prior year. This decrease is primarily caused by the divestiture-driven gains in the prior year.
2025 Adjusted EBITDA of $164 million and Adjusted EBITDA margin of 5.4% increased versus the prior year and were in line with guidance showing continued momentum toward our target margin.
CEO Priorities

Non-GAAP Financial Measures We have reported our financial results in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (U.S. GAAP). In addition, we have discussed our financial results using non-GAAP measures. We believe these non-GAAP measures allow investors to better understand the trends in our business and to better understand and compare our results. Accordingly, we believe it is necessary to adjust several reported amounts, determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, to exclude the effects of certain items as well as their related tax effects. Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide an additional means of analyzing the results of the current period against the corresponding prior period. However, these non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as a substitute for, our reported results prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Our non-GAAP financial measures are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable U.S. GAAP measures and should be read only in conjunction with our Consolidated Financial Statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Our management regularly uses our non-GAAP financial measures internally to understand, manage and evaluate our business and make operating decisions. Providing such non-GAAP financial measures to investors allows for a further level of transparency as to how management reviews and evaluates our business results and trends. These non-GAAP measures are among the primary factors management uses in planning for and forecasting future periods. Compensation of our executives is based in part on the performance of our business based on certain of these non-GAAP measures. Refer to the “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” section attached to this release for a discussion of these non-GAAP measures and their reconciliation to the reported U.S. GAAP measures.

Investors are discovering that artificial intelligence (AI) is no longer a guaranteed driver of stock market gains. What once lifted technology stocks across the board has increasingly become a source of volatility, forcing a reevaluation of valuations across multiple sectors.
The surge in AI enthusiasm contributed to a strong U.S. bull market, with gains in technology companies and firms tied to data center expansion. Many investors anticipated that 2026 would mark the point when AI-driven efficiency would translate into measurable bottom-line growth.
Recent developments, however, reveal that AI’s impact is more nuanced. Concerns over the disruptive potential of the technology are affecting sectors beyond software, including legal services, wealth management, and insurance. Questions about the scale and timing of AI capital spending are placing pressure on the share prices of major companies.
Early 2026 has already seen headline-driven market swings. The introduction of AI-powered tools by software startups triggered selling in established software stocks, contributing to a notable decline in the S&P 500 software and services index. Wealth management and insurance firms also experienced losses following the rollout of AI-enabled financial and comparison tools.
Even leading technology stocks have faced headwinds. Declines in stock prices reflect investor concern that high AI-related expenditures may not yield adequate returns. At the same time, some analysts see opportunity in these drops, as valuations for software and services have fallen to their lowest levels in nearly three years, suggesting potential value for patient investors.
The speed of AI adoption has made it challenging for companies to demonstrate the full impact of their investments on earnings. Investors are increasingly looking for firms with strong competitive advantages—economic “moats”—as a way to distinguish sustainable winners from overhyped names.
The AI trade lifted technology stocks for much of 2025, contributing to a third consecutive year of double-digit returns for the S&P 500. Entering 2026, optimism about corporate earnings—expected to rise more than 14%—and potential interest rate cuts provided additional support for equities. However, AI-driven volatility has highlighted the importance of selective stock picking, with a focus on avoiding companies vulnerable to significant setbacks.
In summary, while AI remains a powerful engine for growth, it is increasingly clear that its influence can cut both ways: creating opportunities for companies positioned to capitalize on the technology while introducing risk for those unprepared for rapid disruption. Investors navigating this landscape must balance optimism with caution, identifying firms that combine AI adoption with solid fundamentals to maximize potential returns.
