Cemtrex (NASDAQ: CETX) reported Q1 FY2025 results with revenue declining 19% to $13.7 million compared to $16.9 million in the prior year. The company's Advanced Industrial Services (AIS) segment showed 7% growth to $8.3 million, while the Security segment (Vicon) decreased 41% to $5.5 million.

Operating loss widened to $2.3 million from $0.7 million, and net loss increased to $28.5 million from $1.2 million, primarily due to a non-cash expense of $25.8 million from warrant-related losses. The company secured a record $10.4 million order for its Valerus surveillance system and launched the NEXT™ Modular Camera System with AI capabilities.

Cash and equivalents stood at $5.5 million as of December 31, 2024, while inventory increased to $11.1 million from $7.0 million in September 2024.

Insights

The Q1 FY2025 results reveal significant challenges and opportunities for Cemtrex, with notable divergence between its two main segments. The 19% revenue decline to $13.7M masks contrasting segment performance that requires careful analysis.

The Security segment's 41% revenue drop to $5.5M reflects more than just election-cycle delays. The inventory surge to $11.1M from $7.0M suggests potential supply chain adjustments for anticipated demand, particularly with the new NEXT™ camera platform launch. However, this inventory build-up requires careful monitoring as it ties up working capital and could pressure margins if demand doesn't materialize as expected.

Several bright spots emerge despite the challenging quarter:

  • The $10.4M Valerus system order represents approximately 2 quarters of typical Vicon revenue, providing strong visibility for H1 2025
  • The Hailo-15 SoC integration positions Vicon at the forefront of edge AI processing, potentially commanding premium pricing in the surveillance market
  • AIS's 7% growth to $8.3M demonstrates resilience in industrial services, with the $6.7M wastewater treatment contracts highlighting strong infrastructure spending

The operating loss expansion to $2.3M from $0.7M reflects concerning margin pressure and elevated operating expenses. While the $25.8M warrant-related loss is non-cash, it significantly impacts shareholder value through dilution. The stable cash position of $5.5M provides runway, suggesting careful cash management will be important in coming quarters.

The divergent segment performance indicates a potential need for strategic review. While AIS shows steady growth in infrastructure services, Vicon's transformation toward AI-enabled surveillance solutions represents a higher-risk, higher-reward proposition that may take several quarters to materialize in financial results.

Hauppauge, NY, Feb. 14, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Cemtrex Inc. (NASDAQ: CETX, CETXP), an advanced security technology and industrial services company, has reported its financial and operational results for the fiscal first quarter ended December 31, 2024.

Key Highlights for First Fiscal Quarter 2025

  • Revenue for Q1’25 decreased 19% to $13.7 million, compared to revenue in the prior year of $16.9 million.
  • AIS revenue increased 7% to $8.3 million, capitalizing on strategic acquisitions and growing market demand.
  • Vicon Innovations: Launched NEXT™ Modular Camera System, integrating groundbreaking AI analytics and Hailo-15 edge AI processing, poised to redefine the surveillance industry.
  • Strategic Momentum: Secured a record-breaking $10.4 million order for Valerus surveillance system expansion

Management Commentary

Cemtrex Chairman and CEO, Saagar Govil, commented on the results: “The first fiscal quarter of 2025 was highlighted by sustained growth for AIS on high demand for its products and services, offset by a decrease in Vicon revenue as companies delayed orders of multiple projects due to uncertainties with the transition to a new federal administration. Operating loss for the first fiscal quarter of 2025 was $2.3 million, compared to $0.7 million a year ago, mainly due to the decrease in revenue and resulting lower gross profit. Net loss was $28.5 million compared to $1.2 million in the prior year’s quarter, primarily due to recognized losses on excess fair value of warrants, a non-cash expense of $25.8 million.

“Our Security segment revenue in the first quarter decreased 41% to $5.5 million due to a weaker industrywide demand for security solutions, compounded by order and project delays stemming from uncertainty surrounding the most recent election cycle. Vicon has now renewed its momentum with new orders as the market refocuses and achieved record sales in January 2025. Many of these orders began shipping in the second fiscal quarter of 2025, including a record-breaking $10.4 million order for a state government corrections facility in the mid-Atlantic region. We expect sales for the fiscal second quarter to put us on well on pace to reach or exceed our year-over-year growth target of 15%-20%.

“Our optimistic outlook for Vicon is based on the exciting new security technologies, products and partnerships announced in recent months. Vicon introduced NEXT™, a next generation modular camera platform that transforms how security integrators and end-users install, interact, and support their camera systems, which began shipping in February 2025. We have also integrated disruptive AI analytics for detecting armed persons in surveillance footage to be included in NEXT Cameras. With Hailo, an AI chip manufacturer known for its high-performance edge AI processors, we have integrated the groundbreaking Hailo-15 System-on-a-Chip (SoC) into the NEXT Modular Camera System. Taken together, we believe Vicon is well-positioned to leverage these investments in new technologies and products to ramp sales, with an increasing opportunity to grow revenue and gross margin over the next several quarters.

“For our Industrial services segment, AIS continued to execute on orders and contract awards, growing 7% to $8.3 million in the first quarter of 2025. From large-scale infrastructure to wastewater infrastructure contracts, AIS’s success is powering its strong market position and expanding its growth outlook. AIS has multiple projects set for completion in 2025, and a strong pipeline of orders from leading companies. We also continue to explore additional acquisition opportunities that can build on and accelerate our growth further.

“Looking ahead, we believe the strength and reputation of our two segments’ products and services will continue to build revenue and shareholder value in 2025. Vicon’s next generation cameras and software are leveraging new AI capabilities and technologies to attract attention from new and existing customers to meet their evolving security challenges. AIS is demonstrating its ability to attract multi-million-dollar project wins from leading companies and governmental agencies, with a strong pipeline that will drive additional revenue,” concluded Govil.

Segment Highlights:

Vicon Industries:

  • Vicon Industries revenues for fiscal Q1’25 decreased 41% to $5.5 million.

First Quarter Fiscal 2025 Financial Results Overview

Revenues for the first fiscal quarter of 2025 were $13.7 million, compared to $16.9 million in the first fiscal quarter of 2024, a decrease of 19%. The decrease in revenue for the year was due to increased demand for the Company’s AIS products and services, offset by a decrease in security technology products under our Vicon brand.

The Security segment revenues for the quarter ended December 31, 2024, and 2023 were $5.5 million and $9.2 million, respectively, a decrease of 41%, due to decreased demand for security technology products under the Vicon brand. Industrial Services segment revenues for the first quarter of 2025 increased by 7% to $8.3 million, up from $7.7 million in the first quarter of 2024, primarily due to the increase in demand for its products and services.

Gross Profit for the three months ended December 31, 2024, was $5.7 million, or 41% of revenues, as compared to gross profit of $7.1 million, or 42% of revenues, for the three months ended December 31, 2023.

Total operating expenses for the first fiscal quarter of 2025 were $8.0 million compared to $7.8 million in the first fiscal quarter of 2024. The increase in total operating expenses was primarily driven by increases in salaries and wages, general and administrative expenses, and research and development expenses related to the Security Segment’s development of proprietary technology and next generation solutions associated with security and surveillance systems software.

Operating loss for the first fiscal quarter of 2025 was $2.3 million as compared to an operating loss of $0.7 million for the first fiscal quarter of 2024. The operating loss was primarily due to the decrease in revenue and resulting lower gross profit.

Net loss in the first fiscal quarter of 2025 totaled $28.9 million compared to a net loss of $1.3 million in the first fiscal quarter of 2025. The increase in net loss was primarily due to recognized losses on excess fair value of warrants of $25.8 million, which represents the difference between the fair value of the shares issued and the value of the warrants exercised, following a recently completed reverse stock split.

Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash as of December 31, 2024, was $5.5 million, compared to $5.4 million as of September 30, 2024.

Inventories increased to $11.1 million at December 31, 2024, from $7.0 million at September 30, 2024.
