Alison Forsythe, President and CEO of Intellinetics, stated: “The third quarter marks an encouraging step forward in our transformation. We narrowed our GAAP net loss to $239,000 from $1.1 million in the second quarter, improved Adjusted EBITDA by approximately $516,000 sequentially to positive $145,000, and expanded gross margin to 67.1%. These results demonstrate meaningful progress following a challenging first half, and we believe there is further opportunity to improve margins as our operational initiatives take hold. Having spent nearly nine months leading Intellinetics, I am more confident today in the opportunities ahead than when I joined the company, while recognizing there is still important work to do.”

 

“We are sharpening our focus on operating discipline, strengthening accountability, and aligning our organization and investments with our highest-priority opportunities. During the third quarter, we advanced our organizational restructuring, and our recent executive appointments in technology and professional services further strengthened the leadership team responsible for execution. These actions are designed to improve efficiency and build a more scalable business.”

 

“Accelerating SaaS growth remains a central priority. Our current SaaS growth rate is below our ambitions, and we are sharpening commercial execution and focusing our technology and services investments accordingly. We also see opportunities to connect our document-conversion, secure content management, and workflow capabilities more closely to serve customers. Our focus is on turning these opportunities into more consistent, profitable growth and long-term shareholder value.”

 

Summary – 2026 Third Quarter Results

 

Revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2026 were $4,027,687, an increase of 0.7%, as compared with $4,001,445 for the same period in 2025. This net increase was driven by SaaS revenue growth of 5.0% and storage and retrieval revenue growth of 6.2%, which more than offset a 2.5% decrease in professional services revenues and a 6.6% decrease in software maintenance services revenues.

 

 

 

 

Total operating expenses increased 0.1% to $2,948,877, compared to $2,947,128, driven by a 4.0% increase in general and administrative expenses, partially offset by an 11.8% decrease in sales and marketing expenses and a 9.8% decrease in depreciation and amortization. Additionally, for the third quarter, share-based compensation expense decreased $60,517 from 2025 to 2026, to $105,903. Loss from operations was $245,484 compared to a loss from operations of $379,224 in the third quarter last year. The 5.3% increase in gross profit, together with essentially flat operating expenses, contributed to a 35.3% year-over-year reduction in operating loss.

 

Intellinetics reported a net loss of $239,163 compared to a net loss of $369,765 for the same period in 2025. Basic and diluted net loss per share for the three months ended September 30, 2026 was $(0.05), compared to net loss per basic and diluted share of $(0.08) for the three months ended September 30, 2025. Adjusted EBITDA was $144,821 compared to $102,642 in 2025.

Summary – 2026 Nine-Month Results

 

Revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 were $11,883,346, a decrease of 3.1% compared to $12,259,603 for the same period in 2025. This net decrease was driven by a 7.8% decrease in professional services revenues, primarily reflecting project volume challenges in our Document Services segment in the first half of 2026 relative to 2025, and a 10.1% decrease in software maintenance services revenues, which together more than offset SaaS revenue growth of 3.2% and storage and retrieval revenue growth of 6.1%. Total operating expenses increased 7.5% to $10,322,534 compared to $9,603,063. The increase was driven by a 14.1% increase in general and administrative expenses, including approximately $430,000 of non-recurring CEO transition costs in the first quarter of 2026, partially offset by a 13.2% decrease in sales and marketing expenses. Loss from operations was $2,518,095, compared to a loss from operations of $1,572,261 last year. Intellinetics reported a net loss of $2,503,154, or $(0.56) per basic and diluted share compared to net loss of $1,664,920, or $(0.39) per basic and diluted share, for the same period in 2025.

2026 Outlook

 

Based on results through the third quarter and current visibility, management now expects single-digit year-over-year SaaS revenue growth for fiscal 2026, compared with its previous expectation of double-digit growth. The revised outlook primarily reflects the timing of customer deployments and the pace at which bookings convert into recognized SaaS revenue.

 

Following meaningful sequential improvement in third-quarter operating performance, Intellinetics enters the fourth quarter with a lower cost structure resulting from organizational actions taken during the third quarter. The company is also seeing improving deal pipelines across both Software and Document Services businesses. Management believes these developments provide a stronger foundation to build on recent progress, while recognizing that deployment and project timing will continue to influence quarterly results.

 

Management remains focused on converting opportunities into revenue, improving customer deployment execution, and directing investments toward software and services capabilities that can support more consistent, profitable growth.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

 

Intellinetics uses non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental measure of our performance that is not required by, or presented in accordance with, accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP). A non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company’s financial performance that excludes or includes amounts so as to be different from the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP in the statement of income, balance sheet or statement of cash flows of a company.

 

Adjusted EBITDA: Adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income, operating income, or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP, or as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities or a measure of our liquidity. Intellinetics urges investors to review the reconciliation of non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA to the comparable GAAP Net Income, which is included in this press release, and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate Intellinetics’ financial performance.

 

We believe that Adjusted EBITDA is a useful performance measure and is used by us to facilitate a comparison of our operating performance on a consistent basis from period-to-period and to provide for a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our business than measures under GAAP can provide alone. We define “Adjusted EBITDA” as earnings before interest (income) expense, any income taxes, depreciation and amortization expense, non-cash share-based compensation, transaction costs, and CEO transition one-time costs (including overlapping wages and benefits, recruiting costs, legal costs, and severance costs including share-based compensation).
