These non-GAAP measures, which may be different than similarly-titled measures used by other companies, are presented to enhance investors' overall understanding of our financial performance and should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. We define "Non-GAAP gross profit and Non-GAAP gross margin" as GAAP gross profit and GAAP gross margin, adjusted for stock-based compensation expense and amortization of intangible assets included in cost of revenue. We define "Non-GAAP Loss from Operations" as our income (loss) from operations adjusted to exclude stock-based compensation, acquisition costs and amortization of acquired intangible assets. We define "Non-GAAP Net Loss" as our net income (loss) adjusted to exclude stock-based compensation and amortization of acquired intangible assets. We define "Non-GAAP EPS", as our Non-GAAP Net Income (Loss) divided by our GAAP weighted-average number of shares outstanding for the period on a diluted basis. Management uses Non-GAAP EPS to evaluate the performance of our business on a comparable basis from period to period. The above items are excluded from our Non-GAAP Gross Profit, Non-GAAP Income (Loss) from Operations and Non-GAAP Net Income (Loss) because these items are non-cash in nature, or are not indicative of our core operating performance, and render comparisons with prior periods and competitors less meaningful. We believe Non-GAAP Gross Profit, Non-GAAP Income (Loss) from Operations and Non-GAAP Net Income (Loss) provide useful supplemental information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our results of operations, as well as provide a useful measure for period-to-period comparisons of our business performance. We define free cash flow as net cash used in operating activities less cash used for purchases of property and equipment. We believe that free cash flow is a useful indicator of liquidity that provides information to management and investors, even if negative, about the amount of cash used in our operations other than that used for investments in property and equipment. Other Business Metrics Active Customers - we define Active Customers as customers who have entered into a license agreement with us that remains in effect. The retention and expansion of our relationships with existing customers are key indicators of our revenue potential. Annual Contract Value (ACV) - we define Annual Contract Value for an individual customer agreement as the total fixed fees under the agreement divided by the number of years in the agreement term. Our total ACV is the aggregate ACVs for all our customers as measured at a given point in time. Total fixed fees includes licensing, support and maintenance and other fixed fees under IP licensing or software licensing agreements but excludes variable revenue derived from licensing agreements with customers, particularly royalties. We define ACV plus royalties as ACV plus the trailing-twelve-months variable royalties and other revenue. Confirmed Design Starts - we define Confirmed Design Starts as when customers confirm their commencement of new semiconductor designs using our interconnect IP and notify us. Confirmed Design Starts is a metric management uses to assess the activity level of our customers in terms of the number of new semiconductor designs that are started using our interconnect IP in a given period. We believe that the number of Confirmed Design Starts is an important indicator of the growth of our business and future royalty revenue trends. Remaining Performance Obligations (RPO) - we define Remaining Performance Obligations as the amount of contracted future revenue that has not yet been recognized, including deferred revenue, billed and unbilled cancelable and non-cancelable contracted amounts.

APPN Non-GAAP Financial Measures To supplement its consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, Appian provides investors with certain non-GAAP financial performance measures. Appian uses these non-GAAP financial performance measures for financial and operational decision-making and as a means to evaluate period-to-period comparisons. Appian's management believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding Appian's performance by excluding certain expenses that may not be indicative of our recurring core business operating results. Appian believes both management and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing Appian's performance and when planning, forecasting, and analyzing future periods. These non-GAAP financial measures also facilitate management's internal comparisons to historical performance as well as comparisons to competitors' operating results. Appian believes these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors both because (1) they allow for greater transparency with respect to measures used by management in its financial and operational decision-making and (2) they are used by Appian's institutional investors and the analyst community to help them analyze the health of Appian's business. The non-GAAP financial performance measures include the following: non-GAAP subscriptions cost of revenue, non-GAAP professional services cost of revenue, non-GAAP total cost of revenue, non-GAAP total operating expense, non-GAAP operating loss, non-GAAP income tax expense, non-GAAP net income (loss), and non-GAAP net income (loss) per share, basic and diluted. These non-GAAP financial performance measures exclude the effect of stock-based compensation expense, certain non-ordinary litigation-related expenses consisting of legal and other professional fees associated with the Pegasystems cases (net of insurance reimbursements), or Litigation Expense, amortization of the judgment preservation insurance policy, or JPI Amortization, severance costs related to involuntary reductions in our workforce, or Severance Costs, lease impairment and lease-related charges associated with actions taken to reduce the footprint of our leased office spaces, or Lease Impairment and Lease-Related Charges, and a short-swing profit disgorgement paid to us by a shareholder, or Short-Swing Profit Payment. While some of these items may be recurring in nature and should not be disregarded in the evaluation of our earnings performance, it is useful to exclude such items when analyzing current results and trends compared to other periods as these items can vary significantly from period to period depending on specific underlying transactions or events that may occur. Therefore, while we may incur or recognize these types of expenses in the future, we believe removing these items for purposes of calculating our non-GAAP financial measures provides investors with a more focused presentation of our ongoing operating performance. Appian also discusses adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial performance measure it believes offers a useful view of the overall operation of its businesses. The Company defines adjusted EBITDA as net loss before (1) other expense (income), net, (2) interest expense, (3) income tax expense, (4) depreciation expense and amortization of intangible assets, (5) stock-based compensation expense, (6) Litigation Expense, (7) JPI Amortization, (8) Severance Costs, and (9) Lease Impairment and Lease-Related Charges. The most directly comparable GAAP financial measure to adjusted EBITDA is net loss. Users should consider the limitations of using adjusted EBITDA, including the fact this measure does not provide a complete measure of our operating performance. Adjusted EBITDA is not intended to purport to be an alternative to net loss as a measure of operating performance or to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity. The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation from, as a substitute for, or superior to the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, and Appian's non-GAAP measures may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies. For more information on these non-GAAP financial measures, see the reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to their nearest comparable GAAP measures at the end of this press release. Appian provides guidance ranges for non-GAAP net income (loss) per share and adjusted EBITDA; however, we are not able to reconcile these amounts to their comparable GAAP financial measures without unreasonable efforts because certain information necessary to calculate such measures on a GAAP basis is unavailable, subject to high variability, dependent on future events outside of our control, and cannot be predicted. In addition, Appian believes such reconciliations could imply a degree of precision that might be confusing or misleading to investors. The actual effect of the reconciling items that Appian may exclude from these non-GAAP expense numbers, when determined, may be significant to the calculation of the comparable GAAP measures.

Cemtrex Reports First Quarter Fiscal Year 2025 Financial Results - Cemtrex (NASDAQ:CETX), Cemtrex (OTC:CETXP)
Hauppauge, NY, Feb. 14, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Cemtrex Inc. 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 NEXTâ„¢ 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 NEXTâ„¢, 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.Announced a record breaking $10.4 million order for a state government corrections facility in the mid-Atlantic region, expanding the customer's Valerus surveillance security system with additional hardware, including enhanced storage infrastructure.Unveiled 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 January 2025.Secured a partnership with Hailo, an AI chip manufacturer known for its high-performance edge AI processors, to integrate the groundbreaking Hailo-15 System-on-a-Chip (SoC) into Vicon's NEXT Modular Camera System.Announced the integration of an innovative Artificial Intelligence (AI) gun detection feature in its NEXT Cameras, marking a significant milestone in public safety and security technology. Advanced Industrial Services: Industrial Services segment revenues for fiscal Q1'25 increased 7% to $8.3 million.Awarded two project contracts totaling $6.7 million for upgrades at the Clearwater Road Wastewater Treatment Facility in Derry Township, Pennsylvania. 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. About Cemtrex Cemtrex Inc.

Forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of words including "believe," "anticipate," "should," "intend," "plan," "will," "may," "expect," "estimate," "project," "positioned," "strategy," and similar expressions that are intended to identify forward-looking statements, including statements relating to the compound semiconductors market and our position in this market and the anticipated timing of delivery of the systems.

Factors that may cause our actual results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to the effects of the evolving nature of the war situation in Israel, and the related evolving regional conflicts; the continued demand for HPC, HBM and Chiplet devices resulting from, among other things, the field of AI surging worldwide across companies, industries and nations; our dependency upon the semiconductor industry and the risk that unfavorable economic conditions or low capital expenditures may negatively impact our operating results; risks related to the Company's ability to effectively maneuver global trade issues and changes either in the U.S., Israel, or elsewhere in trade and export regulations, tariffs, and license policies, including formal or informal imposition by countries of new or revised export and/or import and doing-business regulations or sanctions, and further including changes in U.S. trade policies, changes or uncertainty related to the U.S. government entity list and changes in the ability to sell products incorporating U.S originated technology, which can be made without prior notice; the risks relating to the concentration of a significant portion of our business in certain countries in the Asia Pacific Region, particularly China, Taiwan and Korea, some of which might be subject to the trade restrictions referred to above or involved in trade wars with countries which might impose such trade restrictions; changing industry and market trends; and those other factors discussed in our Annual Report on Form 20-F as published on March 21, 2024, as well as other documents that may be subsequently filed by Camtek from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
