Insights

OMNIQ's financial restructuring is yielding strong results with dramatically reduced losses, improved margins, and healthier cash flow after divesting legacy operations.

OMNIQ's mid-2025 results demonstrate a remarkable financial transformation driven by strategic restructuring and cost-cutting initiatives. The $5.1 million net loss from H1 2024 has been slashed to just $34,000 in H1 2025, signaling a near-complete elimination of losses. This dramatic improvement comes despite a 10.3% revenue decline to $15.7 million.

The company's gross margin enhancement from 23% to 26% demonstrates improved operational efficiency in both pricing strategy and procurement. Simultaneously, SG&A expenses were reduced by 31% to $3.37 million, reflecting effective cost control measures and the elimination of overhead associated with the divested legacy business.

The balance sheet transformation is equally impressive. The stockholders' equity deficit has been reduced by approximately 75%, from $(43.9) million to $(11.0) million - a $32.9 million improvement that substantially strengthens OMNIQ's financial foundation.

Cash position metrics further validate the turnaround. The company ended Q2 with $2.2 million in cash, while operating cash flow swung dramatically positive to $6.07 million compared to negative $3.6 million a year earlier - a $9.68 million improvement.

The pivotal strategic move was divesting the underperforming legacy business, which had generated a $1.7 million loss in the current period. This divestiture produced a significant $34.7 million gain, which management conservatively recorded to Additional Paid-in Capital rather than recognizing it as income due to the related-party nature of the transaction.

With operating losses now primarily attributable to non-cash depreciation and amortization ($504,000 of the $678,000 operating loss), OMNIQ appears positioned for sustainable profitability as it moves forward with a leaner, more focused business model.

SALT LAKE CITY, Aug. 19, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- OMNIQ Corp. (OTCMKTS:OMQS) or “The Company� announced today the financial results of the second quarter 2025, showing a strong financial turnaround in the first half of 2025, with overall net loss reduced to just $34,000 from $5.1 million in the prior year period, and a 75 percent reduction in equity deficit on $15.7 million of revenue.

All of the following values are adjusted post the announcement that was released July 16th, 2025, due to the sale of the legacy business.

  • Stockholders� Equity: Improved by $32.9M, reducing the deficit by approximately 75% from $(43.9M) to $(11.0M).
  • Revenue: $15.7 million for the first half of 2025, compared to $17.5 million in the same period of 2024.
  • Gross Margin: Improved to 26% (2025) from 23% (2024), as the company became more efficient in purchases and pricing.
  • SG&A Expenses: Reduced by 31%, falling to $3.37 million from $4.9 million, driven by cost-savings initiatives and the removal of portion of overhead previously generated by legacy business expenses.
  • Loss from operations: The loss from operations for the 6 months ended June 30 was approximately $678,000, of which approximately $504,000 of expenses was from depreciation and amortization during the quarter. The same period for 2024 was a loss of approximately $2.27 million.

Pursuant to the asset sale described in the Form 10Q, the assets of one division were sold during the second quarter of 2025. Accordingly, the financial statements have reclassified the related revenues and expenses from both prior periods and the current period into a single line item for “Discontinued Operations� on the face of the financial statements, with further detail provided in the accompanying Notes. Cash flow followed the same trend. The Company ended June 30, 2025, with $2.2 million in cash. Operating cash flow was positive at $6.07 million compared with negative $3.6 million a year earlier, an improvement of about $9.68 million.

The sale of the legacy business was a turning point. On June 30, 2025, the division’s results were classified as discontinued operations, which showed a loss of $1.7 million compared with $1.0 million in the prior year. The sale resulted in a net gain on disposal of approximately $34.7m, which reflects the difference between the carrying amount of the net assets disposed of and the consideration transferred/assumed, including the promissory note and transaction costs. However, due to the related-party nature of the transaction, management determined it would be more conservative to record the gain to Additional Paid-in Capital instead of in Other Income.

“We’ve reshaped omniQ into a stronger, more focused business,� said Shai Lustgarten, CEO. “Our results show real progress. The balance sheet is healthier, our core operations are profitable, and we now have a solid foundation for responsible growth.�
