Digimarc Reports First Quarter 2026 Financial Results
May 12, 2026 4:05 PM
Business Wire
Digimarc Corporation (NASDAQ: DMRC) reported financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2026.
“Digimarc is capitalizing on the convergence of key trends driving increased demand for our solutions, positioning ourselves to benefit from the relentless advance of AI," said Riley McCormack, Digimarc CEO. "In Q1 2026, we made significant progress against our strategy of building the trust layer for the modern world while delivering a 9% sequential increase in ending ARR(1) and expanding our subscription gross profit margin(2) 400 basis points year-over year."
First Quarter 2026 Financial Results
Subscription revenue for the first quarter of 2026 was $4.4 million compared to $5.3 million for the first quarter of 2025. The decrease reflects $1.5 million lower subscription revenue from the expiration of two commercial contracts in 2025, partially offset by an increase from new and existing commercial contracts.
Service revenue for the first quarter of 2026 was $3.2 million compared to $4.1 million for the first quarter of 2025. The decrease primarily reflects $0.5 million of lower commercial service revenue from HolyGrail 2.0 recycling projects, as that work was previously completed.
Total revenue for the first quarter of 2026 was $7.6 million compared to $9.4 million for the first quarter of 2025.
ARR(1) as of March 31, 2026 was $15.0 million compared to $20.0 million as of March 31, 2025. The decrease primarily reflects the expiration of two commercial contracts, one in April 2025 that accounted for a total of $3.7 million of ARR and the other in October 2025 that accounted for $3.1 million of ARR, partially offset by $1.8 million of net increases to ARR from new and existing commercial contracts.
Gross profit margin for the first quarter of 2026 was 60% compared to 65% for the first quarter of 2025. Subscription gross profit margin(2) increased to 90% from 86% and service gross profit margin(2) decreased to 57% from 65% for the first quarter of 2026 compared to the first quarter of 2025.
Non-GAAP gross profit margin for the first quarter of 2026 was 83% compared to 81% for the first quarter of 2025.
Operating expenses for the first quarter of 2026 were $11.7 million compared to $18.2 million for the first quarter of 2025. The decrease primarily reflects $4.2 million of lower cash compensation costs largely due to lower headcount and $3.2 million of lower cash severance costs resulting from the reduction in force in the first quarter of 2025, partially offset by $1.0 million of legal costs associated with the corporate reorganization.
Non-GAAP operating expenses for the first quarter of 2026 were $8.1 million compared to $16.5 million for the first quarter of 2025.
Net loss for the first quarter of 2026 was $7.0 million or ($0.32) per diluted share compared to $11.7 million or ($0.55) per diluted share for the first quarter of 2025.
Non-GAAP net loss for the first quarter of 2026 was $1.6 million or ($0.07) per diluted share compared to $8.5 million or ($0.40) per diluted share for the first quarter of 2025.
At March 31, 2026, cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities totaled $10.0 million compared to $12.9 million at December 31, 2025. Free cash flow usage for the first quarter of 2026 was $2.0 million compared to $5.6 million for the first quarter of 2025.

Forward-Looking Statements
Except for historical information contained in this release, the matters described in this release contain various “forward-looking statements.” These forward-looking statements include statements identified by terminology such as “will,” “should,” "may," “expects,” “estimates,” “predicts” and “continue” or other derivations of these or other comparable terms. These forward-looking statements are statements of management’s opinion and are subject to various assumptions, risks, uncertainties and changes in circumstances. Actual results may vary materially from those expressed or implied from the statements in this release as a result of changes in economic, business and regulatory factors. More detailed information about risk factors that may affect actual results are outlined in the company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, and in subsequent periodic reports filed with the SEC. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which reflect management’s opinions only as of the date of this release. Except as required by law, Digimarc undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances that may arise after the date of this release.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This release contains the following non-GAAP financial measures: Non-GAAP gross profit, Non-GAAP gross profit margin, Non-GAAP operating expenses, Non-GAAP net loss, Non-GAAP net loss per diluted share, and free cash flow. See below for a reconciliation of each non-GAAP financial measure to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. These non-GAAP financial measures are an important measure of our operating performance because they allow management, investors and analysts to evaluate and assess our core operating results from period-to-period after removing non-cash and non-recurring activities that affect comparability. Our management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in evaluating its financial and operational decision making and as a means to evaluate period-to-period comparisons.
Digimarc believes that providing these non-GAAP financial measures, together with the reconciliation to GAAP, helps management and investors make comparisons between us and other companies. In making any comparisons to other companies, investors need to be aware that companies use different non-GAAP measures to evaluate their financial performance. Investors should pay close attention to the specific definition being used and to the reconciliation between such measures and the corresponding GAAP measures provided by each company under applicable SEC rules. These non-GAAP financial measures are not measurements of financial performance or liquidity under GAAP. In order to facilitate a clear understanding of its consolidated historical operating results, investors should examine Digimarc’s non-GAAP financial measures in conjunction with its historical GAAP financial information, and investors should not consider non-GAAP financial measures in isolation or as substitutes for performance measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed as supplemental to, and should not be considered as alternatives to, GAAP financial measures. Non-GAAP financial measures may not be indicative of the historical operating results of the Company nor are they intended to be predictive of potential future results.

The increase reflects $1.4 million of patent license fees earned during the quarter and higher subscription revenue from new and existing commercial contracts, partially offset by a $1.4 million decrease relating to the expiration of two previously disclosed commercial contracts in 2025.
Service revenue for the fourth quarter of 2025 was $3.6 million compared to $3.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2024.
Total revenue for the fourth quarter of 2025 was $8.9 million compared to $8.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2024.
Annual recurring revenue (ARR1) as of December 31, 2025, was $13.7 million compared to $20.0 million as of December 31, 2024. The decrease reflects the expiration of two previously disclosed commercial contracts, a $3.5 million contract in April 2025 and a $3.1 million contract in October 2025, partially offset by a net increase in ARR from new and existing commercial contracts.
Gross profit margin for the fourth quarter of 2025 was 64% compared to 61% for the fourth quarter of 2024. Excluding amortization expense on acquired intangible assets, subscription gross profit margin for the fourth quarter of 2025 increased to 90% from 85% for the fourth quarter of 2024, while service gross profit margin for the fourth quarter of 2025 decreased to 57% from 59% for the fourth quarter of 2024.
Non-GAAP gross profit margin for the fourth quarter of 2025 was 84% compared to 78% for the fourth quarter of 2024.
Operating expenses for the fourth quarter of 2025 were $10.0 million compared to $14.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2024. The decrease reflects lower cash compensation costs of $4.4 million, largely due to lower headcount, and lower professional services costs of $0.6 million, partially offset by higher stock compensation costs of $0.7 million.
Non-GAAP operating expenses for the fourth quarter of 2025 were $6.5 million compared to $11.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2024.
Net loss for the fourth quarter of 2025 was $4.2 million or ($0.19) per diluted share compared to $8.6 million or ($0.40) per diluted share for the fourth quarter of 2024.

At December 31, 2025, cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities totaled $12.9 million compared to $28.7 million at December 31, 2024. Free cash flow for the fourth quarter of 2025 was positive $0.7 million compared to negative $4.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2024.
Fiscal Year 2025 Financial Results
Subscription revenue for fiscal year 2025 was $19.8 million compared to $22.4 million for fiscal year 2024. The decrease reflects a $4.8 million decrease from the expiration of three previously disclosed commercial contracts, partially offset by higher subscription revenue from new and existing commercial contracts.
Service revenue for fiscal year 2025 was $14.1 million compared to $16.0 million for fiscal year 2024. The decrease reflects a $1.8 million lower budget from the Central Banks for program work in 2025 compared to 2024.
Total revenue for fiscal year 2025 was $33.9 million compared to $38.4 million for fiscal year 2024.
Gross profit margin for fiscal year 2025 was 62% compared to 63% for fiscal year 2024. Excluding amortization expense on acquired intangible assets, subscription gross profit margin and service gross profit margin were largely unchanged from fiscal year 2024 to fiscal year 2025.
Non-GAAP gross profit margin for the fiscal year 2025 was 81% compared to 79% for fiscal year 2024.
Operating expenses for fiscal year 2025 were $54.1 million compared to $65.5 million for fiscal year 2024.

Fiscal year 2025 operating expenses included $3.2 million of cash severance costs related to the corporate reorganization in February 2025.
Non-GAAP operating expenses for fiscal year 2025 were $40.5 million compared to $53.8 million for fiscal year 2024.

Forward-Looking Statements
Except for historical information contained in this release, the matters described in this release contain various “forward-looking statements.” These forward-looking statements include statements identified by terminology such as “will,” “should,” “expects,” “estimates,” “predicts” and “continue” or other derivations of these or other comparable terms. These forward-looking statements are statements of management’s opinion and are subject to various assumptions, risks, uncertainties and changes in circumstances. Actual results may vary materially from those expressed or implied from the statements in this release as a result of changes in economic, business and regulatory factors. More detailed information about risk factors that may affect actual results are outlined in the company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, and in subsequent periodic reports filed with the SEC. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which reflect management’s opinions only as of the date of this release. Except as required by law, Digimarc undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances that may arise after the date of this release.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This release contains the following non-GAAP financial measures: Non-GAAP gross profit, Non-GAAP gross profit margin, Non-GAAP operating expenses, Non-GAAP net income (loss), Non-GAAP income (loss) per diluted share, and free cash flow. See below for a reconciliation of each non-GAAP financial measure to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. These non-GAAP financial measures are an important measure of our operating performance because they allow management, investors and analysts to evaluate and assess our core operating results from period-to-period after removing non-cash and non-recurring activities that affect comparability. Our management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in evaluating its financial and operational decision making and as a means to evaluate period-to-period comparisons.
Digimarc believes that providing these non-GAAP financial measures, together with the reconciliation to GAAP, helps management and investors make comparisons between us and other companies. In making any comparisons to other companies, investors need to be aware that companies use different non-GAAP measures to evaluate their financial performance. Investors should pay close attention to the specific definition being used and to the reconciliation between such measures and the corresponding GAAP measures provided by each company under applicable SEC rules. These non-GAAP financial measures are not measurements of financial performance or liquidity under GAAP. In order to facilitate a clear understanding of its consolidated historical operating results, investors should examine Digimarc’s non-GAAP financial measures in conjunction with its historical GAAP financial information, and investors should not consider non-GAAP financial measures in isolation or as substitutes for performance measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed as supplemental to, and should not be considered as alternatives to, GAAP financial measures. Non-GAAP financial measures may not be indicative of the historical operating results of the Company nor are they intended to be predictive of potential future results.
