OTTAWA, ON, Nov. 13, 2025 /CNW/ - Martello Technologies Group Inc., ("Martello" or the "Company") (TSXV: MTLO), a provider of experience monitoring solutions for communication and collaboration systems such as Microsoft Teams and Mitel, today released financial results for the three and six months ended September 30, 2025. Martello's software proactively detects performance issues before they impact users of these services.

"Martello's operational restructuring is focused on creating the foundation for sustainable growth in the future", said Jim Clark, Chief Executive Officer of Martello. "We remain committed to strengthening the MPA value proposition and extending the use of our legacy products. At the same time, we are advancing innovation initiatives that apply Martello's expertise in service performance management to the emerging AI management and assurance market."

Terence Matthews, Chairman of Martello highlights the opportunity for Martello in the Mitel business line with MPA (Mitel Performance Analytics): "The longstanding partnership between Mitel and Martello continues with advanced MPA features that empower partners to be more efficient, proactive, and productive in their support of Mitel customers worldwide. I'm pleased that this has included the integration of MPA with Mitel's AI capabilities, and I look forward to more AI-driven innovation within the Martello product programs, all good for our future."

Q2 FY26 Financial Highlights

• Revenue of $3M was 18% lower than the same quarter of the prior year, primarily due to lower renewal rates on sunsetting legacy product offerings.
• Sunsetting legacy product revenue declined by 34.8% or $0.5M in Q2 FY26 compared to Q2 FY25. The ongoing decline of legacy product revenue is proceeding as expected.
• Revenue from the Mitel business segment decreased by 5% in Q2 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 50% of total revenues in Q2 FY26 (compared to 43% in Q2 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.
• Vantage DX monthly recurring revenue ("MRR") declined 15% year-over-year in Q2 FY26, while overall MRR fell 18% to $0.97M from $1.19M in the prior year. The decreases were primarily driven by customer attrition, expected declines in sunsetting legacy product renewals, and changes in the mix of users subscribed to certain Mitel offerings.
• 97% of total revenues were recurring in Q2 FY26 compared to 98% in Q2 FY25.
• Gross margin was 84.5% in Q2 FY26 compared to 86% in Q2 FY25. The decrease in gross margin reflects a proportionally larger decline in revenue relative to the reduction in cost of sales.
• Operating expenses for Q2 FY26 rose 129% to $9.61M, primarily due to a $5.9M impairment of intangible assets, which relate to the Modern Workplace Optimization segment and the transition of Vantage DX to End of Sale status. As a result of this transition, management assessed the related intangible assets and concluded that the carrying value was no longer recoverable, resulting in an impairment charge. Excluding this impairment, operating expenses decreased $0.49M (12%), mainly reflecting lower compensation costs following workforce reductions.
• Loss from operations was $7.08M compared to a loss of $1.07M in the same period of FY25, an increase of $6.01M or 564%, primarily attributable to the write-off of intangible assets and decreased revenue slightly offset by lower operating expenses as described above.
• Adjusted EBITDA (a non-IFRS measure) was a loss of $0.76M in Q2 FY26 compared to a loss of $0.58M in Q2 FY25, due to a decrease in revenue, partially offset by lower operating expenses and cost of sales resulting from cost optimization initiatives.
• The Company's cash and short-term investments balance was $2.11M as of September 30, 2025 (compared to $6.69M at March 31, 2025), primarily due to the net loss of $9.58M in FY26 to date.
