Vislink turns EBITDA positive as military revenue jumps 159%
Vislink Technologies reported its first-quarter 2026 financial results, achieving EBITDA profitability of $0.2 million compared to a $2.2 million loss in the prior year period. Revenue increased 17% year-over-year to $5.4 million, primarily driven by a 159% surge in military/government sector revenue, which now contributes the majority of its sales. The company also highlighted its ongoing AI initiative targeting cost savings and accelerated time-to-market.
Key Takeaways
- Non-GAAP EBITDA turned positive at $0.2 million in Q1 2026, versus a $2.2 million loss in Q1 2025.
- Revenue climbed 17% year over year to $5.4 million, and 2% sequentially from Q4 2025.
- Military/Government revenue surged 158.9% year over year and 92.6% sequentially, becoming the majority of Q1 sales.
- Gross margin expanded to 65.0% as higher-margin MilGov solutions and a $0.2 million obsolete stock release lifted results.
- Operating expenses fell 35.1% year over year to $3.6 million, while Vislink said its AI initiative targets $0.3 million in annualized savings.
Why It Matters
Vislink’s Q1 shows the business can now generate EBITDA profit while shifting its mix toward Military/Government contracts. That matters for streaming-video hardware and transmission vendors because the company is tying margin expansion to higher-margin defense work, not broadcast demand; live production revenue still fell to $2.0 million. The next signal to watch is whether the eight U.S. Federal RFI responses and the AI initiative’s claimed $0.3 million in annualized savings translate into sustained operating expense declines and cash neutrality in Q2 2026.
