OTTAWA, ON, Aug. 14, 2025 /CNW/ – Martello Technologies Group Inc., (“Martello” or the “Company”) (TSXV: MTLO), a provider of user experience monitoring solutions for cloud communication and collaboration systems such as Microsoft Teams and Microsoft 365, today released financial results for the three months ended June 30, 2025. Martello’s software proactively detects performance issues before they impact users of these systems.

Terence Matthews, Chairman of Martello highlighted the number of initiatives the Company is pursuing to bring Vantage DX to managed service providers: “MSPs face pressure to do more with existing resources and Martello continues to develop Vantage DX to simplify the management of even the most complex hybrid collaboration environments,” said Mr. Matthews. “As the Company works to increase momentum in the partner channel, I’m pleased to have amended the Wesley Clover loan agreement to provide Martello with greater flexibility and predictability.”

“I’m pleased with our momentum, particularly in the channel, where partners like LDI and Tollring are working closely with Martello to launch Vantage DX as part of their offerings. At the same time, our maturing go to market efforts with partners like Orange Business and Yorktel are helping to solidify Vantage DX’s position within their growing pipeline of sales opportunities”, said Jim Clark, Chief Executive Officer of Martello. “Having built the foundation to successfully onboard new partners in FY25, I look forward to the continued activation of these partners as we drive more revenue from the channel.”

Q1 FY26 Financial Highlights

• Revenue of $3.09M was 19% lower than the same quarter of the prior year, primarily due to lower renewal rates on sunsetting legacy product offerings.
• Vantage DX monthly recurring revenue decreased by 9% in Q1 FY26 compared to Q1 FY25. The decrease was primarily due to customer churn within our direct sales channel, partially offset by the acquisition of new customers and ongoing efforts to migrate legacy product customers to the Vantage DX platform. Martello’s strategy to develop its MSP channel aims to strengthen monthly recurring revenue stability and scalability with greater sales channel diversity.
• Sunsetting legacy product revenue declined by 29% or $0.44M in Q1 FY26 compared to Q1 FY25. The ongoing decline of legacy product revenue is proceeding as expected.
• Revenue from the Mitel business segment decreased by 12% in Q1 FY26 compared to the same period in the prior year. This decrease is attributable to a continued shift in the revenue mix from various MPA offerings. The Mitel business represents a growth opportunity as it continues to be a large source of revenue and gross margin, representing 49% of total revenues in Q1 FY26 (compared to 45% in Q1 FY25). Martello works closely with Mitel to ensure that MPA remains well-positioned to support both emerging and established market segments, with an emphasis on high-growth opportunities.
• 99% of total revenues were recurring in Q1 FY26 compared to 98% in Q1 FY25.
• Gross margin was 85% in Q1 FY26 compared to 87% in Q1 FY25. The decrease in gross margin reflects a proportionally larger decline in revenue relative to the reduction in cost of sales. This was primarily due to higher hosting, installation, and delivery costs incurred in Q1 FY26 compared to the same period in the prior year.
• Monthly recurring revenue (“MRR”) decreased by 18% to $1.02M in Q1 FY26 compared to $1.24M in the prior year. The decrease is primarily attributable to expected declines in sunsetting legacy product renewal revenue and changes in the mix of users subscribed to certain Mitel offerings.
• Operating expenses increased by 12% to $4.52M in Q1 FY26 compared to $4M in Q1 FY25. The increase was primarily driven by higher severance and salary and benefit costs and an increase in the value of Deferred Share Units (DSUs).
• Loss from operations was $1.90M in Q1 FY26 compared to $0.75M in Q1 FY25. The increase in loss from operations is attributable to decreased revenue and an increase in operating expenses as described above.
• Adjusted EBITDA (a non-IFRS measure) was a loss of $1.19M in Q1 FY26 compared to a loss of $0.79M in Q1 FY25, attributable to the items described above.
• The Company’s cash and short-term investments balance was $4.50M as of June 30, 2025 (compared to $6.69M at March 31, 2025).
