Actelis Networks Reports 2025 Financial Results Highlighted by Strong Fourth Quarter Rebound
SUNNYVALE, Calif, March 18, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Actelis Networks, Inc. (NASDAQ: ASNS) ("Actelis" or the "Company"), a market leader in cyber-hardened, rapid-deployment networking solutions for IoT and broadband applications, today reported its financial results for the full year ended December 31, 2025, and provided business and corporate updates. Revenues for the fourth quarter of 2025 were approximately $1.4 million, representing an increase of 113% from $0.64 million in the third quarter of 2025. For the full year 2025, revenues were $3.7 million, compared to $7.8 million in the prior year. The decrease was primarily driven by two large deals in 2024 that did not repeat in 2025. In addition, the Company experienced a challenging operating environment, primarily due to a prolonged U.S. government shutdown that impacted budgeting and timelines. Despite these headwinds, the Company exited the year with a strong fourth quarter performance, reflecting improved revenue conversion from projects developed earlier in the year and continued wins across federal, transportation, utilities, and telecom markets.
“While 2025 was a challenging year across our sector, we exited the year with clear operational momentum,” said Tuvia Barlev, Chief Executive Officer of Actelis. “Fourth quarter revenue more than doubled sequentially compared to the third quarter while gross margin improved as well, and fourth quarter revenue exceeded each of the prior quarters of the year despite ongoing uncertainties and delays related, among other things, to the U.S. government shutdown. At the same time, we continued to expand our footprint across federal, transportation, multi-dwelling unit (MDU) networks while advancing our cost discipline initiatives and pursuing opportunities for inorganic growth. In recent months, our share price has experienced significant pressure despite the operational progress we continue to make. We believe Actelis is positioned at the intersection of several powerful infrastructure trends, including AI-driven bandwidth demand growth, federal modernization programs - many of which have been funded at tens of billions of dollars by the U.S. government - and increasing cybersecurity requirements for critical networks. We see our solutions as uniquely suited to enable rapid, cyber-hardened infrastructure deployment at a fraction of the cost of traditional alternatives.”
Business and Financial Highlights
Financial Results for the Twelve Months Ended December 31, 2025
Revenues: Our revenues for the year ended December 31, 2025 amounted to $3.7 million, compared to $7.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The decrease was primarily attributable to the timing of customer deployments and project execution across infrastructure markets, including federal, carrier and large infrastructure programs which typically involve long procurement and rollout cycles.
Cost of Revenues: Our cost of revenues for the year ended December 31, 2025 amounted to $2.5 million, compared to $3.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The decrease from the corresponding period was primarily attributable to lower revenue levels during the year.
Research and Development (R&D) Expenses: Our R&D expenses for the year ended December 31, 2025 amounted to $2.6 million, compared to $2.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The increase is due to the strengthening of the Israeli shekel against the U.S. dollar which led to an increase in expenditure by approximately $0.15 million.
Sales and Marketing Expenses: Our sales and marketing expenses for the year ended December 31, 2025 amounted to $2.9 million, compared to $2.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The increase was primarily attributable to engaging consultants to expand market reach in primarily the government sector.
General and Administrative Expenses: Our general and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2025 amounted to $2.9 million, compared to $3.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The decrease was primarily attributable to cost reduction measures taken, while these benefits were offset by higher costs driven by the strengthening of the Israeli shekel against the U.S. dollar.
Other Income: Our other income for the year ended December 31, 2025 was negligible, compared to $0.16 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The prior year amount was primarily attributable to a government grant received from the State of Israel associated with the Iron Swords war.
Operating Loss: Our operating loss for the year ended December 31, 2025 was $7.2 million, compared to $3.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The increase was mainly due to the decline in sales, while operating expenditure remained consistent and increased operating expenses by $0.3 million driven by the strengthening of the Israeli shekel against the U.S. dollar by approximately 7%.
Financial (Expenses) income, Net: Our financial expenses, net for the year ended December 31, 2025 amounted to approximately $1.1 million, compared to $0.62 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The increase is mainly due to expenditure of $0.75 million related to the Commitment Fee under the Common Stock Purchase Agreement payable in common shares issuance.
Net Loss: Our net loss for the year ended December 31, 2025 was $8.3 million, compared to a net loss of $4.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. This increase was primarily attributable to lower sales while operating expenditure remained consistent, as well as due to a one-time financial commitment expenditure of $0.75 million. In addition, the Israeli shekel strengthened by an average of 7% against the U.S. dollar, leading to higher operating expenses and contributing to increase in net loss.
Adjusted EBITDA: Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP) was a loss of $6.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to a loss of $3.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The higher loss reflects lower revenues during the year, partially offset by cost reduction initiatives and improved operating efficiencies implemented during 2025.
Working Capital: As of December 31, 2025, the Company had approximately $4 million in cash and cash equivalents. Subsequent to year end, to date, the Company raised gross proceeds of approximately $7.3 million through its At-the-Market (ATM) facility. During 2026, the Company secured important long-term components while optimizing its inventory levels that were flat year over year, significantly strengthening its balance sheet and ability to execute its operational initiatives and growth plans.
Share Repurchase Program:
Additionally, the Company today announced that its Board of Directors has authorized an expansion of its share repurchase program which it had authorized in November 2022 (the “Share Repurchase Program”) and since repurchased $50,000 worth of common stock, from $1 million up to $1.5 million worth of its outstanding shares of common stock. The Board of Directors authorized the Company to purchase its common stock from time to time on a discretionary basis. Decisions regarding the amount and timing of purchases under the Share Repurchase Program will be based on the Company’s cash on hand, cash flows from operations, general market conditions, regulatory requirements and other factors. The Company is not obligated to acquire any particular amount of its common stock under the Share Repurchase Program, has no set termination date and may be suspended or discontinued at any time.
