SEC filingRevenue grew 12.9% YoY to $195.1M, driven by subscription revenue, with gross margin expansion and a return to GAAP profitability.
For the three months ended June 30, 2025, total revenue increased 12.9% year-over-year to $195.1 million, driven primarily by a 16% growth in subscription revenue from new and existing customers. Gross profit rose 20.4% to $104.6 million, with gross margin expanding 340 basis points to 53.6%, benefiting from lower cost of revenue as a percentage of sales due to improved operational efficiencies and scale. Operating income swung to a positive $9.8 million from a loss of $13.7 million in the prior year, reflecting the impact of revenue growth and controlled spending. Net income was $11.8 million compared to a net loss of $13.1 million, a $24.9 million improvement. Non-GAAP operating income increased 68% to $37.8 million, while adjusted EBITDA grew 53% to $45.8 million, with EBITDA margin improving by over 600 basis points.
The MD&A does not provide discrete segment financials; however, the business is managed as a single operating segment. Revenue is predominantly subscription-based (SaaS) from digital banking platform customers. The company noted that elevated interest rates have increased demand for digital banking solutions as financial institutions seek to attract and retain deposits. Subscription revenue growth outpaced total revenue, and the company expects subscription revenue to continue increasing as a percentage of total revenue. Helix (BaaS) and digital lending solutions contribute to revenue but are not separately quantified.
Management expects continued investment in implementation and customer support teams, technology infrastructure, and public cloud migration to support growth, with costs expected to decline as a percentage of revenue over the long term. Sales and marketing expenses are expected to increase in absolute dollars but decrease as a percentage of revenue. Research and development spending will continue to focus on platform enhancements. The company noted potential impacts from tariffs, regulatory changes (e.g., the GENIUS Act), and geopolitical instability, but stated these have not materially affected operations to date. No specific quantitative guidance was provided.
