NAPERVILLE, Ill., May 08, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Track Group, Inc. (OTCQB: TRCK), a global leader in offender tracking and monitoring services, today announced financial results for its fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2026 (“Q2 FY26”). In Q2 FY26, the Company posted (i) total revenue of $8.9 Million (“M”), an increase of approximately 7% over total revenue of $8.4M for the quarter ended March 31, 2025 (“Q2 FY25”); (ii) Q2 FY26 gross profit of $4.5M representing an increase of approximately 9% over Q2 FY25 gross profit of $4.1M; (iii) Q2 FY26 operating income of $0.41M, representing an increase of approximately 830% over Q2 FY25 operating income of $0.04M; (iv) Q2 FY26 Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA of $1.55M, representing an increase of approximately 18% over Q2 FY25 Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA of $1.32M and (v) Q2 FY26 net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders of ($0.7M), representing a decrease of 38% over Q2 FY25 net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders of ($0.5M). Additional commentary on these year-over-year comparisons can be found below.
FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
- Total revenue in Q2 FY26 of $8.9M increased 7%, or $0.6M compared to Q2 FY25. Revenue for the six months ended March 31, 2026 (“6M FY26”) of $18.1M increased by 6% compared to revenue of $17.0M for the six months ended March 31, 2025 (“6M FY25”). The increase in monitoring revenue in Q2 FY26 was mainly driven by business growth in Florida and Illinois, which more than offset decreases in Pennsylvania and Puerto Rico.
- Gross profit in Q2 FY26 of $4.5M increased by 9%, or $0.4M, compared to Q2 FY25. Gross profit of $8.8M in 6M FY26 increased by 3%, or $0.2M compared to 6M FY25. The primary drivers of the increase in the quarter are increased revenue coupled with an ongoing focus on cost controls. More specifically, continued savings from the monitoring center transition initiated by management a year and a half ago have continued to outpace expectations on the cost side, as well as from a customer service perspective. These monitoring cost savings have continued to be slightly offset by continued server cost increases. Gross Margin in Q2 FY26 improved to 50.2%, compared to 49.3% in the comparable prior period. While the improvement and trajectory of margins here are great to see, product mix and other items can affect these and make quarterly comparisons difficult on many occasions.
- Operating income in Q2 FY26 of $0.41M increased by 830%, or $0.37M compared to Q2 FY25. Operating income of $1.2M in 6M FY26 increased by 593%, or $1.0M compared to 6M FY25. The increase in operating income is primarily due to an increase in revenue accompanied by a continued focus on cost controls.
- Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA in Q2 FY26 of $1.55M increased by 18%, or $0.24M compared to Q2 FY25. Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA in 6M FY26 of $2.77M increased by 8%, or $0.21M compared to 6M FY25. Adjusted EBITDA Margin in Q2 FY26 was 17.4%, continuing its path of improvement, compared to 15.8% in Q2 FY25. New business coupled with an ongoing cost control focus and changes to ongoing expense structures have been the primary drivers for these improvements.
- Our cash balance was $5.1M at March 31, 2026, compared to $4.1M at September 30, 2025. The increase in cash was primarily due to an improvement in underlying profitability since September 30, 2025. Another material driver of the increase was the continued agreed-upon interest payment deferral with the company’s prior lender, which was forgiven in the recently announced refinancing transactions subsequent to the end of Q2 FY26.
- Net income (loss) attributable to shareholders in Q2 FY26 was ($0.7M) compared to ($0.5M) in Q2 FY25. Net loss attributable to shareholders in 6M FY26 was ($0.2M), compared to ($2.5M) for 6M FY25. The decline in Q2 FY26 compared to the previous comparable period is almost entirely related to a foreign currency translation loss of $0.5M, which has no meaningful effect on cash or cash flow generation. Absent this foreign currency charge, there would have been an improvement here year over year in Q2 FY26.
“Our second quarter results reflect continued execution of our strategy, with solid revenue growth, improved gross margins, and meaningful gains in all measures of underlying profitability,” said Derek Cassell, CEO of Track Group. “Strong demand in key markets like Florida and Illinois reinforces our leadership in the GPS electronic monitoring space. Our year-to-date performance shows clear progress, supported by improved cash generation and Adjusted EBITDA growth. We remain focused on building on this momentum, executing on recent contract wins and the near-term completion of multiple long-term capital investments that we believe will drive sustained earnings growth.”
Business Outlook
The growth in underlying profitability evidenced in Q2 FY26 reinforces our confidence in the strategic reinvestment in technology and the implementation of new programs initiated in late fiscal 2025. One of these investments, which has been ongoing for over a year, is expected to result in annualized savings in server costs equivalent to approximately $2M based on our current book of business. Barring unforeseen circumstances, we expect these savings to be fully incorporated into results on a run-rate basis by the end of fiscal 2026. These savings, which are expected to be reflected through ongoing expense reductions, are also expected to be accompanied by material decreases in ongoing capital expenditures.
Additionally, subsequent to the end of the quarter, we completed the development of our first new monitoring device in over 10 years. The development of this device has cost approximately $7M over the past few years, most of which was capitalized. The completion of the development of this device is expected not only to result in a material reduction in ongoing capital expenditures but is also expected to create many new business opportunities over the coming years that were not previously available to the company. This expectation is based on customer feedback and recent contract wins specifically citing features of this new device.
Given these factors and others, and barring unforeseen circumstances, we expect year over year growth in revenue and underlying profitability for fiscal 2026, and for this to continue into fiscal 2027. These expectations refer to profitability after removing the effect of one-time costs related to the comprehensive recapitalization and refinancing transactions announced subsequent to the end of Q2 FY26.
