Continued Momentum - Q2 total revenue UP 13%;
Sustained Growth - Six-month total revenue UP 14%

JERICHO, NY / ACCESS Newswire / August 11, 2026 / Intelligent Protection Management Corp. ("IPM," "we," "us," "our" or the "Company") (Nasdaq:IPM), a managed technology solutions provider focused on enterprise cybersecurity and cloud infrastructure, today announced its financial results for the three months and the six months ended June 30, 2026.

Management Discussion

Jason Katz, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said, "Financial results for the second quarter of 2026 were solid despite supply chain constraints, achieving a 13% increase in total revenue to $6.5 million compared to last year's second quarter. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, total revenue increased 14% to $12.8 million. We achieved double-digit revenue growth by generating new customers, expanding sales to existing customers and investing strategically for future growth. Our performance underscores the strength and value of our "white glove" managed technology solutions in highly regulated industries. As customers increasingly recognize the security, reliability and scalability of our platform, we believe we remain well positioned to capitalize on growing market demands.

"In the second quarter", Mr. Katz continued, "we had a strong increase of 64% in procurement revenues, as customers focused on building out their infrastructure as quickly as possible to execute on their AI initiatives. Customer procurement by its nature is uneven and dependent on many unpredictable factors. In that regard, we have invested in expanding our procurement and fulfillment infrastructure to better serve our clients.

"We experienced supply chain constraints during the quarter, which affected the availability of memory, CPU and GPU components throughout the quarter. These conditions extended product lead times, resulting in delays between customer bookings and product shipments. Consequently, a portion of booked orders remained unrecognized as of the end of June 30, 2026 as revenue pending fulfillment and delivery in future quarters. Going forward, we are better prepared to manage this part of our business in a more effective way and on a more timely basis, as we are adding additional distributors, vendors, partners and manufacturers to further diversify our sources.

"During the quarter we continued to add new customer relationships and service contracts, as we remain dedicated to building a diversified customer base to reduce concentration in a handful of customers. Additionally, during the first half of 2026, we further strengthened our competitive position by achieving SOC 2 Type 1 compliance, extending our Phoenix data center agreement through 2032 and accelerating AI integration through our partnership with MASORI Therapeutics. These advancements enhance our ability to deliver secure, enterprise-grade infrastructure and AI-driven automation, elevating our position as a trusted partner."

Mr. Katz, concluded, "As I have indicated previously, we continue to explore and evaluate strategic opportunities, including, but not limited to, potential mergers or acquisitions of other entities or assets that are synergistic to our businesses and expand our market leadership. With a strong balance sheet, no long-term debt and a growing pipeline, we believe we are well positioned to move aggressively and integrate operations that are synergistic with our core operations and can be acquired at reasonable valuations to provide greater returns for our loyal stockholders. We are confident in our ability to build on our momentum and deliver strong results throughout the remainder of 2026 as well as deliver shareholder value."

Financial Highlights: Q2 2026

¹Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure. Please see the discussion below under the heading "Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures" and the reconciliation at the end of this release for additional information.

Financial Results: Three and Six months ended June 30, 2026

For the three months ended June 30, 2026, total revenue increased by 13% to $6.5 million from $5.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025. This increase was driven by increased managed information technology revenue, attributed to both new customers, as well as the expansion of services sold to existing customers, and an increase in procurement revenue related to sales of AI-related equipment to customers, partially offset by decreases in professional services revenue and subscription revenue. Total revenue by revenue component for the second quarter ended June 30, 2026, was as follows:

• Managed information technology revenue, which consists of revenue from our managed IT security services, managed backup and disaster solutions and web hosting, was $3.8 million, an increase of 8.4% from Q2 2025.

• Procurement revenue was $2.0 million, an increase of 64.0% from Q2 2025.

• Professional services revenue was $363,055, a decrease of 47.3% from Q2 2025.

• Subscription revenue was $249,490, a decrease of 10.5% from Q2 2025.

Revenue from NewtekOne, Inc., a related party, was impacted by its ongoing initiatives to reduce information technology spending. We partially offset this decline in revenue through growth in recurring revenue from customers who are not related parties, including the addition of new customer relationships and service contracts during the period.

• Net loss for the three months ended June 30, 2026 totaled $1.4 million compared to net loss of $1.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025;

• Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended June 30, 2026 totaled negative $0.6 million compared to negative $0.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025;

• Cash used in operations totaled $0.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 compared to cash used in operations of $0.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, primarily related to our sourcing of product in connection with the increased procurement revenue;

• Deferred revenue was $4.5 million as of June 30, 2026, which will be recognized as revenue in future quarters as products and/or services are installed; and

• At June 30, 2026 we had $7.5 million of cash and cash equivalents on our balance sheet and no long-term debt.

For the six months ended June 30, 2026, total revenue increased by 14% to $12.8 million from $11.2 million for the comparable six-month period in 2025. The increase was driven by increased managed information technology revenue, attributed to both new customers as well as the expansion of services sold to existing customers, and an increase in procurement revenue related to sales of AI-related equipment to customers, partially offset by decreases in professional services revenue and subscription revenue.

• For the six months ended June 30, 2026, revenue totaled $12.8 million compared to $11.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, an increase of 14%, primarily attributed to an increase in our managed IT services of 9% compared to the prior year period, as well as an increase in procurement revenue of 70% compared to the prior year period;

• Net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2026 totaled $2.0 million, compared to net loss of $0.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025;

• Adjusted EBITDA for the six months ended June 30, 2026 totaled negative $0.8 million, compared to negative $0.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025; and

• Cash used by operations of $0.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 compared to cash provided by operations of $0.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, primarily related to our sourcing of inventory in connection with the increased procurement revenue.

Items Affecting Our Results for the Second Quarter

During the three months ended June 30, 2026, we experienced supply chain constraints affecting the availability of memory, CPU and GPU components. These constraints extended product lead times compared to historical levels, resulting in delays between customer bookings and product shipments. As a result, a portion of booked orders during the quarter remained unrecognized as revenue pending fulfillment and delivery, which we expect to recognize in future quarters as the underlying products and services are shipped and installed.

During the six months ended June 30, 2026, a significant customer order was delayed and fulfilled across two reporting periods due to supply chain constraints affecting both our vendor and distribution channel. These constraints altered the cost structure associated with fulfilling the order. The initial shipment, completed in the first quarter, was recognized at expected margins, while the subsequent shipment, completed during the second quarter, incurred higher component and freight costs, resulting in a loss on that portion of the order. As a result, the combined order resulted in a loss, which contributed to the increase in cost of revenue for the period.

Operational Highlights: Three and Six months ended June 30, 2026:

• Expanded our sales organization by adding a dedicated territory focused on the Phoenix metropolitan area and broader West Coast market, which includes an established customer base and industry expertise. Management believes this expansion positions us to pursue additional revenue opportunities and support future growth.

• Executed an extension of our existing Phoenix data center colocation license agreement with an industry-leading data center provider through August 2032.

• Entered into a strategic collaboration with MASORI Therapeutics ("MASORI"), an advanced artificial intelligence ("AI") platform designed to accelerate results by reducing cost, complexity, and time for small and medium AI models, allowing organizations to save significantly by decreasing necessary code development and providing AI-related benefits.

• Successfully achieved SOC 2 Type 1 compliance, a key milestone in our ongoing commitment to safeguarding customer data and delivering trusted cybersecurity and cloud infrastructure solutions.

• Repurchased 50,000 shares of common stock during the first quarter of 2026, under our stock repurchase plan for an aggregate of $83,491. As of June 30, 2026, all shares of common stock available for repurchase under the stock repurchase plan had been repurchased and such plan had expired.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company has provided in this release Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, to supplement the consolidated financial statements, which are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP"). Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) adjusted to exclude interest (income) expense, net, other (income) expense, net, income tax (benefit) expense, depreciation and amortization expense, stock-based compensation expense, net loss from discontinued operations, impairment loss in connection with the Divestiture and litigation expenses relating to the Cisco ManyCam Litigation (as defined below). Prior to the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2025, the Company did not exclude litigation expenses related to the Cisco ManyCam Litigation in calculating Adjusted EBITDA as they were not material. However, after reevaluation, the Company has determined that presenting Adjusted EBITDA without excluding such costs provides less valuable information about the Company's core operations. As a result, beginning with the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2025, litigation expenses related to the Cisco ManyCam Litigation are now excluded from the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA internally in analyzing the Company's financial results to assess operational performance and to determine the Company's future capital requirements. The presentation of this financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. The Company believes that both management and investors benefit from referring to Adjusted EBITDA in assessing its performance and when planning, forecasting and analyzing future periods. The Company believes Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors and others to understand and evaluate the Company's operating results and it allows for a more meaningful comparison between the Company's performance and that of competitors. Our use of Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider this performance measure in isolation from or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are that Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect, among other things: cash capital expenditures for assets underlying depreciation and amortization expense that may need to be replaced or for new capital expenditures; interest income, net; other expense, net; the potentially dilutive impact of stock-based compensation; the provision for income taxes; litigation expenses incurred in connection with our patent defense against Cisco Systems, Inc. and Cisco Technology, Inc. (the "Cisco ManyCam Litigation"); and net loss from discontinued operations. Other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently, which reduces its usefulness as a comparative measure.

Because of these limitations, you should consider Adjusted EBITDA along with other financial performance measures, including total revenues, subscription revenue, deferred revenue, net income (loss), cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, net cash used in operating activities and our financial results presented in accordance with GAAP.
