AudioEye Reports Record Second Quarter 2026 Results

Forty-Second Consecutive Period of Record Revenue

TUCSON, Ariz. — August 13, 2026 — AudioEye, Inc. (Nasdaq: AEYE) (“AudioEye” or the “Company”), an industry-leading digital accessibility company, reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2026.

​

"This was an outstanding quarter with our forty-second quarter of sequential revenue growth and low double-digit year-over-year ARR growth. Adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow have reached a pivotal point, and GAAP net loss improved sequentially from the first quarter. We are raising our full year adjusted EBITDA guidance and expect to achieve over $15 million of annualized run rate adjusted EBITDA by the end of the year, with meaningful free cash flow generation in the second half of 2026. As our free cash flow continues to scale, we are evaluating options to deploy excess cash, including potential share buybacks and dividends," said Kelly Georgevich, Chief Executive Officer of AudioEye. ​

Second Quarter 2026 Financial Results

●Annual Recurring Revenue (“ARR”) as of June 30, 2026, increased sequentially to $42.3M from $41.2M as of March 31, 2026, and increased 11% compared to June 30, 2025.

●Total revenue increased 9% to a record $10.7M from $9.9M in the same prior year period.

●Gross profit increased to $8.4M (79% of total revenue) from $7.6M (77% of total revenue) in the same prior year period. The increase in gross profit was driven by continued revenue growth.

●Adjusted gross margin, which is defined as gross margin adjusted for non-cash items such as stock-based compensation and depreciation and amortization expenses in cost of revenue, was 84% in the second quarter of 2026 compared to 83% in the same prior year period.

●Operating expenses were $9.0M, an increase of 23% from the comparable prior year period. The increase was primarily due to the prior year quarter including a one-time gain on revaluation of contingent consideration of $1.4M, which did not recur in the current quarter, as well as increased general and administrative expenses in the current quarter, primarily driven by higher litigation expenses.

●Net loss was $0.9M, or $(0.07) per share, compared to a net loss of $0.0M, or $(0.00) per share, in the same prior year period. The prior year comparable period included a $1.4M one-time gain on revaluation of contingent consideration. Removing this impact, net loss improved due primarily to higher gross profit.

●Adjusted EBITDA in Q2 2026 was a record $3.0M, and adjusted EPS was $0.23 per share, compared to adjusted EBITDA of $1.9M and adjusted EPS of $0.15 per share in the same prior year period. For Q2 2026, the adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EPS results reflect adjustments primarily for stock-based compensation expense, litigation expense, depreciation and amortization, severance expense, and interest expense.

●At June 30, 2026, the Company had $8.7M in cash and cash equivalents, an increase of $0.1M from March 31, 2026.

​

Other Updates

●AudioEye released the 2026 Digital Accessibility Index on June 25, 2026, scanning over 165,000 pages across 6,100 domains in the U.S. and Europe. The findings revealed a consistent gap between where accessibility programs focus and where risk is the highest, as AI search increasingly routes users past the homepage to less compliant interior pages. The scans also revealed that European sites averaged 25% more accessibility issues per page than U.S. sites.

●AudioEye appointed Matthew Domeyer as Chief Financial Officer, effective in July 2026. Matt brings finance leadership experience from Flexsteel Industries and PricewaterhouseCoopers, and succeeds Kelly Georgevich, who transitioned from CFO to CEO in May 2026.

●As of June 30, 2026, AudioEye had approximately 129,000 customers, an increase of 9,000 year-over-year from June 30, 2025, driven by increases in the Partner and Marketplace channel.
