PR Newswire
OTTAWA, ON, Aug. 25, 2026
OTTAWA, ON, Aug. 25, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Senstar Technologies Corporation (NASDAQ: SNT), a leading international provider of comprehensive physical, video and access control security products and solutions, today announced its financial results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026. Management will hold an investors' conference call later today (at 9 a.m. Eastern Time) to discuss the results.
Second Quarter 2026 Business Summary:
(Second quarter 2026 results for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to the comparable three-month period of 2025, except as otherwise noted.)
- Revenue increases 8% year-over-year to $10.4 million with gross margin of 64.2% versus revenue of $9.7 million with gross margin of 66.1%
- Net income of $0.4 million compared to net income of $1.2 million in the second quarter of last year, driven by diligent investments in innovative security solutions.
- Cash and short-term bank deposits balance of $8.0 million, excluding restricted cash of $0.1 million, and the Company had no debt as of June 30, 2026, compared with $22.5 million cash balance as of December 31, 2025
Mr. Fabien Haubert, Chief Executive Officer of Senstar Technologies, stated, "Our second quarter results reflect the continued execution of our strategy and a successful return to growth and profitability, with revenue increasing by 8% over the year-ago quarter. LiDAR once again delivered a standout performance, delivering strong growth and further solidifying its role as a material driver of our overall growth trajectory. This momentum provides clear validation that Senstar's sales infrastructure is accelerating Blickfeld's growth. The combined business is generating meaningful synergies, with Blickfeld delivering a profitable EBITDA in Q2, an important milestone that demonstrates the strategic rationale behind the combination. The integration is progressing on schedule, already unlocking efficiency gains and broadening our addressable markets."
Mr. Haubert continued, "The underlying demand environment for our solutions remains robust, with particularly strong momentum in the EMEA and APAC regions supported by notable strength from utilities, data centers, and airports. While our U.S. corrections vertical continues to face temporary impacts from government shutdown related project delays, our pipeline remains healthy and we expect a solid resumption of activity throughout second half of this year. We continue to prioritize improved revenue conversion and are generating meaningful progress in advancing previously delayed projects into scalable deployments. We remain confident in our strategy and ability to deliver sustainable, profitable growth as we execute on our strategic initiatives through the balance of 2026."
Second Quarter 2026 Financial Results Summary
Revenue for the second quarter of 2026 was $10.4 million, an increase of 8% compared with $9.7 million in the second quarter of 2025. Second quarter gross profit was $6.7 million, or 64.2% gross margin, compared with $6.4 million, or 66.1% of revenue, in the year-ago quarter. The variation in gross margin was primarily due to changes in product and customer mix and the inclusion of Blickfeld in the consolidated results.
Operating expenses were $6.4 million, an increase of 18% compared to the prior year's second quarter operating expenses of $5.4 million. The increase in operating expenses is primarily attributable to targeted investments in innovative security solutions, and costs associated with the Blickfeld acquisition, both of which are aimed at generating sustainable long-term growth.
Second quarter of 2026 operating income of $0.3 million compares to operating income of $1.0 million in the year-ago period. The decline is primarily attributable to the inclusion of Blickfeld on a consolidated basis.
Financial income was $61,000 for the second quarter of 2026, an improvement compared to financial loss of ($330,000) in the second quarter last year.
Net income in the second quarter of 2026 was $0.4 million, or $0.02 per share compared to net income of $1.2 million, or $0.05 per share in the second quarter of last year.
EBITDA for the second quarter of 2026 was $0.6 million versus $1.1 million in the second quarter of 2025.
Cash and cash equivalents and short-term bank deposits of $8.0 million, or $0.34 per share as of June 30, 2026, excluding restricted cash of $0.1 million, compared with $22.5 million, or $0.96 per share, at December 31, 2025.
