Cinema Solutions Provider Moving iMage Technologies Progresses Toward Profitability, Trimming FY 2026 Net Loss 69% to ($297K) on Net Sales of $17.3M; Hosts Investor Call Today at 11am ET

Fountain Valley, California–(Newsfile Corp. – September 28, 2026) – Moving iMage Technologies, Inc. (NYSE American: MITQ) (“MiT”), a provider of state-of-the-art cinema products and solutions for film exhibitors, stadiums, arenas, and specialty entertainment venues, today announced results for its fourth quarter (Q4’26) and fiscal year ended June 30, 2026 (FY’26). MiT will hold an investor call today at 11:00 a.m. ET (see call details below).

FY’26 Highlights

  • Expanded proprietary product offering and international reach via acquisition of widely deployed DCS cinema loudspeaker line. MiT continues to build global distribution network for the DCS line, with shipments completed to over 22 countries as of today. DCS’s reputation and breadth of global deployments provide platform for MiT to expand outside its North American footprint.

  • FY’26 projects included auditorium new builds and retrofits for Alamo Drafthouse, EVO Entertainment and the historic Cherry Lane Theater in NYC. Exhibitors continue to enhance the customer experience with new Premium Large Format (PLF) auditoriums and smaller auditorium retrofits utilizing cutting edge laser projection and immersive audio.

  • Focusing on higher margin product and project opportunities, MiT expanded its gross margin percentage to 29.1% in FY’26 from 25.2% in FY’25 and increased its FY’26 gross profit by 10% to $5.0M from $4.6M in FY’25.

  • Significant bottom-line improvement: net loss per share improved to $(0.03) in FY’26 compared to $(0.10) in FY’25, reflecting focus on higher margin opportunities and operating expense discipline.

  • MiT closed FY’26 with working capital of $4.0M, including net cash of $3.2M and zero debt compared to working capital of $4.3M at year-end FY’25.

Chairman and CEO, Phil Rafnson, commented, “The exhibition industry’s content pipeline and current solid box office performance are favorable indicators for capital spending projects. These can include the deployment of new laser projection and immersive audio technology at existing locations as well as the development of large format auditoriums.

“Five films have already surpassed $1 billion in global ticket sales through July 2026, and major studios project a positive outlook for the balance of the year. Though we did experience lower than expected project activity in the fourth quarter, much of this related to customer delays. Looking forward we are optimistic about the coming fiscal year as cinema operators work to enhance their guest experience across their theater footprint.”

President and COO, Francois Godfrey, commented, “We continued to focus on our profit margin profile and overall expense structure during fiscal 2026, while also substantially expanding our proprietary product offerings with the DCS cinema loudspeaker line. DCS strengthens our competitive position and enables us to access new customer opportunities in the U.S. and particularly in international markets, where DCS is widely deployed and respected. Prior to the acquisition of DCS, certain overseas markets were not as conducive to new business opportunities as they are today.

“Equipped with decades of know-how, our commitment is to enable customers to substantially improve their audience experience with compelling visual and audio solutions, working from design and product selection through to installation and commissioning. MiT’s expertise and turnkey capabilities allow us to address any customer requirement, from PLF installations to single auditoriums, for exhibitors of all sizes.”

Mr. Godfrey added, “We have had encouraging customer dialogues at recent industry events, as strong film content and box office performances seem to be supporting increasing investment interest in new projects and previously deferred cinema projector and audio upgrades. This feedback provides us with optimism for project potential over the next twelve months.”

Business Outlook
MiT enters fiscal 2027 with a growing project pipeline that includes refurbishments for a repeat cinema exhibition customer across sixteen screens at two of their locations and a separate, significant, multifaceted project in the Bay Area. Following a change in ownership at an existing sixteen-screen complex in the Bay Area, MiT has been selected to undertake a complete technical solution overhaul expected to commence early in calendar 2027. MiT is also in advanced discussion for potential renovations and installations on behalf of several major Northeast arts organizations and continues to pursue opportunities involving cinema audio, projection, accessibility and lighting controls across the United States. In addition, MiT’s DCS products order backlog continues to build and currently stands at approximately $458,000.

Moving iMage currently expects revenue of approximately $4.5M for Q1’27 ending September 30th and is optimistic regarding the potential to deliver top line growth and profitability for the full FY 2027 year.

Q4’26 Financial Review

  • Q4’26 net sales declined to $4.55M, below management’s expectations and compared to $5.88M in Q4’25, principally due to customers shifting the timing of projects one or more quarters forward.
  • Q4’26 results included $400k of DCS product sales compared to $460k in Q3’26 and $22k in Q2’26 following the acquisition in Q2’26.
  • Q4’26 gross profit dollars decreased to $1.01M vs. $1.20M in Q4’25, reflecting lower net sales and a change in the mix of products and models delivered.
  • Q4’26 operating expenses decreased to $1.32M from $1.39M in Q4’25.
  • Q4’26 net loss increased to ($296K), or ($0.03) per share, vs. a net loss of ($156K), or ($0.02) per share, in Q4’25.

FY’26 Financial Review

  • FY’26 revenue decreased 4.6% to $17.32M vs. $18.15M in FY’25, principally due to reduced customer project activity, offset by the contribution of $882k in revenue from DCS.
  • FY’26 gross profit increased 10% to $5.03M vs. $4.57M principally due to management’s focus on enhancing gross margins.
  • FY’26 operating expenses decreased 2.3% to $5.53M vs. $5.66M in FY’25, as the company continues to maximize efficiencies within sales and marketing budgets and adhere to expense management initiatives undertaken in the past two years.
  • FY’26 net loss improved to ($0.30M), or ($0.03) per share, principally due to gross margin expansion, vs. a net loss of ($0.95M), or ($0.10) per share, last year.
