( CYCU ) ("Cycurion" or the "Company"), a leader in AI-driven cybersecurity and national security solutions with trusted relationships across the U.S. Government, numerous leading corporations, and high-profile individuals across all industries, announced today results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2026. "The first quarter of 2026 marks a clear inflection point in our transformation," said Kevin Kelly, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Cycurion ( CYCU ). "We nearly doubled gross margins, significantly reduced operating expenses and executed binding agreements to acquire Halo Privacy and HavenX, which adds approximately $7 million in annualized contracted revenues at approximately 55% gross margin once the deal closes. Combined with our existing contracted backlog, which we expect to deliver approximately $15 million to $17 million in annual revenue, the addition of Halo Privacy and HavenX will increase our contracted backlog we estimate to convert to revenue in a one year period to approximately $21 million to $22 million. We are executing with discipline - exiting lower margin legacy work, reducing costs and reinvesting in our AI-driven platforms. I am confident in our path to profitability and long-term shareholder value." **Highlights of First Quarter 2026 as Compared to Fourth Quarter 2025** - Revenue of $3.3 million, which reflects the planned wind-down of certain legacy contracts ahead of the ramp of higher-margin replacement work. - Gross margin expanded 900 basis points to 21.1% from 12.1%, nearly doubling as a result of a deliberate shift to higher-margin contracts and disciplined cost management. - Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased $1.3 million, or 31.6%, to $2.7 million. - Net loss improved 51.5% to $2.6 million from $5.3 million. - EBITDA loss improved 60.2% to $1.9 million from $4.9 million. **Strategic and Operational Momentum** - Halo Privacy and HavenX Acquisition (Binding Agreement May 2026): Adds approximately $7 million in estimated annualized contracted revenue with a gross margin of approximately 55%. Brings industry-leading secure communications technology (including the Halo Link app) and elite digital investigations/attribution capabilities (HavenX), expanding Cycurion's ( CYCU ) presence in high-growth markets. - Robust Contract Backlog: Consistent with prior disclosures, the Company's $112 million contracted backlog is expected to realize approximately $15 million – $17 million over the next twelve months, which the addition of Halo Privacy and HavenX upon closing, this expectation increases to approximately $21 million – $22 million over a one year period. - Cost Reduction Initiatives: Organizational realignment on track to generate over $2.2 million in annualized savings, with meaningful benefits already reflected in first quarter of 2026 selling, general and administrative expenses. - Acquisition Pipeline: Continued advancement of the revised Memorandum of Understanding to acquire Kustom Entertainment's Legacy Video Solutions segment (expected to add approximately $5.1 million in annual revenue and approximately $8 million in contracted backlog). **About Cycurion ( CYCU )** Based in McLean, Virginia, Cycurion ( CYCU ) is a forward-thinking provider of IT cybersecurity solutions and AI, committed to delivering secure, reliable, and innovative services to clients worldwide.
