JERICHO, NY / ACCESS Newswire / March 17, 2026 / Intelligent Protection Management Corp.

Management Discussion

Jason Katz, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of IPM, said, " We completed our first year of operations following the acquisition of Newtek Technology Solutions. During 2025, we made significant progress in a number of key areas, including revenue growth, expense optimization and risk management. In the fourth quarter, revenue in our core business, Managed information technology revenue (excluding web hosting), increased sequentially by 7%, net loss declined by 42%, and Adjusted EBITDA¹ was positive. Cash flow from operations was positive for both the quarter and the full year, and as of December 31, 2025, we had cash and cash equivalents totaling $8.4 million and no long-term debt."

Mr. Katz concluded, "We are pleased with the results of our first full year operating as a managed technology solutions provider. We believe we have important differentiators that set us apart from our industry competitors and have significant competitive advantages over our peers in highly regulated vertical markets, including legal, healthcare, finance and banking markets. We provide our customers with a high-touch experience with dedicated technology managers as a single point of contact, as opposed to the majority of competitors in our industry. We do not utilize voice response, telephonic menus or transferal of off service calls to agents in call centers in foreign countries. Our clients speak directly to their IPM account team members who understand our clients' needs and goals. This is an important IPM customer service advantage that fuels our superior customer retention. We look forward to the opportunities ahead in 2026 as we execute on our plan to grow revenue both organically and through potential acquisitions, while optimizing expenses."

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company has provided in this release Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, to supplement the consolidated financial statements, which are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP"). Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) adjusted to exclude interest (income) expense, net, other (income) expense, net, income tax (benefit) expense, depreciation and amortization expense, stock-based compensation expense, net loss from discontinued operations, impairment loss in connection with the Divestiture and litigation expenses relating to the Cisco ManyCam Litigation (as defined below). Prior to the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2025, the Company did not exclude litigation expenses related to the Cisco ManyCam Litigation in calculating Adjusted EBTIDA as they were not material. However, after reevaluation, the Company has determined that presenting Adjusted EBITDA without excluding such costs provides less valuable information about the Company's core operations. As a result, beginning with the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2025, litigation expenses related to the Cisco ManyCam Litigation are now excluded from the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA internally in analyzing the Company's financial results to assess operational performance and to determine the Company's future capital requirements. The presentation of this financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. The Company believes that both management and investors benefit from referring to Adjusted EBITDA in assessing its performance and when planning, forecasting and analyzing future periods. The Company believes Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors and others to understand and evaluate the Company's operating results and it allows for a more meaningful comparison between the Company's performance and that of competitors. Our use of Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider this performance measure in isolation from or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are that Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect, among other things: cash capital expenditures for assets underlying depreciation and amortization expense that may need to be replaced or for new capital expenditures; interest income, net; other expense, net; the potentially dilutive impact of stock-based compensation; the provision for income taxes; litigation expenses incurred in connection with our patent defense against Cisco Systems, Inc. and Cisco Technology, Inc. (the "Cisco ManyCam Litigation"); and net loss from discontinued operations. Other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently, which reduces its usefulness as a comparative measure.

Because of these limitations, you should consider Adjusted EBITDA along with other financial performance measures, including total revenues, subscription revenue, deferred revenue, net income (loss), cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, net cash used in operating activities and our financial results presented in accordance with GAAP.
