Fountain Valley, California–(Newsfile Corp. – November 13, 2026) – Moving iMage Technologies, Inc. (NYSE American: MITQ) (“MiT”), a provider of technology, products, and services that help cinema operators create reliable and memorable guest experiences, announced results for its fiscal 2027 first quarter ended September 30, 2026 (Q1’27) and will hold an investor call today at 11am ET (call details below).
Highlights
-
Q1’27 revenue rose 9.2% to $6.1M compared to $5.6M in Q1’26, reflecting increased project activity and revenue from customers that accelerated their delivery timeline.
-
Q1’27 results included $429k of DCS product sales versus no contribution in the year ago period. The DCS acquisition closed early in Q2’26.
-
Q1’27 gross margin percentage decreased to 24.1% vs. 30.0% in Q1’26, reflecting lower sales of high margin cinema accessories products and higher costs on selected other accessories, as well as the impact of higher shipping costs particularly in international markets.
-
Q1’27 gross profit dollars were $1.47k vs. $1.67M in Q1’26, reflecting the lower Q1’27 gross margin percentage.
-
Q1’27 net income decreased to $181k, or $0.02 per share, vs. $509k, or $0.05 per share, in Q1’26, reflecting the decrease in gross profit dollars as well as $128k of income from the extinguishment of payables that was recorded in Q1’26.
-
MiT ‘s Q1’27 working capital improved to $4.24M compared to $4.0M at June 30, 2026 (Q4’26), with Q1’27 net cash of $5.7M compared to $3.2M at June 30, 2026. The $2.5 million increase in cash compared to Q4’26 reflects $1 million in customer deposits collected against future work, and the management of the timing of accounts payable payments.
Moving Image Chairman and CEO, Phil Rafnson, commented, “We are encouraged by our first-quarter revenue and net income performance and the continued confidence theater operators are demonstrating in our business. The exhibition industry continues to benefit from a strong film slate and box office performance that reaffirms consumer demand for compelling theatrical experiences. We believe this is a constructive backdrop for meaningful opportunities for MiT.
While net income of $181,000 is modest in absolute terms, it is an important reflection of the efforts we are making to drive top- and bottom-line improvements. We remain committed to building a stronger, more efficient business platform that can deliver consistent profitability and long-term shareholder value creation.”
President and COO, Francois Godfrey, added, “Our Q1 revenue of $6.1 million was ahead of our expectations as one customer advanced a project on accelerated timeframes, as they sought to get facilities ready for the important holiday film window during our Q2 ending in December. This performance is rooted in our long-standing customer relationships, technical expertise and ability to deliver across a widening range of cinema technology requirements, all of which differentiate MiT in the marketplace.
“We have made substantial progress with operating expense initiatives designed to align our cost structure with the business and establish a foundation for improved operating leverage. Much of that work is now in place, and we now look to leverage this disciplined foundation with revenue growth initiatives.
“The addition of the DCS loudspeaker line is an important example of this next phase. The DCS line is opening doors and establishing new conversations with domestic and international customers, providing a gateway to a broader range of potential business opportunities beyond the initial loudspeaker sale. MiT has a long track record of serving theater operators with immersive audio systems, premium large-format (PLF) solutions and the associated products, services and technical support needed to deliver high-quality theatrical experiences. Through DCS and our LEA amplifier relationships, MiT is developing a growing base of future opportunities with the potential to drive growth and greater stability in our business.
“Though a single profitable quarter is not a trend, it does demonstrate the culmination of a lot of hard work across or organization – for which I am very grateful. Our objective remains clear: to build a durable, consistently profitable business that delivers value to our customers and creates long-term shareholder value.”
Business Outlook
Our fiscal second quarter is traditionally a period of lower cinema industry activity as exhibitors refrain from capital investments to optimize their revenue potential during the important holiday film season. Despite that seasonality, MiT currently expects revenue of approximately $5.4M for Q2’27 ending December 31st, principally related to the delivery of a turnkey upgrade of a 16-screen theater complex and typically recuring equipment and services revenue.
