Management Commentary
"Boxlight has made meaningful progress in improving operational efficiency and aligning our cost structure with Fiscal Year 2026 revenue expectations," said Ryan Zeek, Chief Financial Officer. "At the same time, we have strengthened our product portfolio by moving away from proprietary network packages toward more scalable, SIP based solutions. While global trade policies continue to impact component costs, our diversified mix of audio, communications, video, and software solutions, along with a geographically broad customer base, positions Boxlight favorably within the industry. We also took proactive steps to absorb IEEPA tariff related costs in 2025 rather than passing them through to customers, which was reflected in our Q1 2026 cost of goods sold. Our continued execution and innovation have been recognized externally as well, with Boxlight named to TIME's list of the Top 250 EdTech Companies for the third consecutive year."

"Technology refresh cycles and the ongoing shift toward digital learning continue to support long term demand," Mr. Zeek added. "While near term pressures remain, we expect a recovery in spending as deferred demand returns. With a proven portfolio, operational discipline, and consistent industry recognition, Boxlight is well positioned to capitalize on this opportunity."

According to Futuresource Consulting, global unit demand for 2026 is expected to remain consistent with 2025 levels, aligning with Boxlight's Q1 2026 performance and reinforcing expectations for stabilization in the broader market.

Gross profit was $6.9 million for Q1'26 compared to $8.0 million for Q1'25, a decrease of 13.7%. Gross profit margin was 30.9% for Q1'26 and 35.9% for Q1'25. The decrease in gross profit margin was primarily related to increases in pricing pressure within the industry compared to the prior year quarter and an increase in customs expense.
General and administrative expenses for Q1'26 were $8.4 million, representing 37.2% of revenue as compared to $7.6 million representing 33.8% of revenue for Q1'25. The increase in general and administrative expenses in Q1'26 was due to increases in professional fees of $0.5 million and other expenses of $0.5 million, offset by a $0.3 million decrease in contract and consulting expenses.
Depreciation and amortization expenses for Q1'26 were $2.6 million, representing 11.4% of revenue as compared to $2.5 million representing 11.0% of revenue for Q1'25.
Research and development expenses for Q1'26 and Q1'25 were $0.9 million and $0.9 million, respectively, and represented 4.2% and 4.1% of revenue, respectively. Research and development expense primarily consists of costs associated with the development of proprietary technology. The increase was attributable to the allocation of certain general and administrative expenses to new and ongoing research and development projects.
Other expense, net for Q1'26 was $2.0 million as compared to $0.5 million for Q1'25, representing an increase of $1.5 million. The increase in other expense was primarily driven by the change in fair value of common warrants in Q1'25, offset by the decrease in interest expense on our term loan in Q1'26.
Net loss increased $3.3 million to $(6.5) million and was a result of the changes noted above. Net loss attributable to common shareholders was $(6.8) million in Q1'26 compared to $(3.6) million in Q1'25, after deducting fixed dividends recorded for Series B preferred shareholders of approximately $0.3 million in both years.
Total comprehensive loss was $(6.7) million for Q1'26 compared to $(2.7) million for Q1'25, reflecting the effect of cumulative foreign currency translation adjustments on consolidation, with the net effect of a $(0.1) million loss and a $0.6 million gain for Q1'26 and Q1'25, respectively.
