Key Fourth Quarter Fiscal 2025 and Subsequent Operational Highlights:

Consolidated all manufacturing operations into the Company's state-of-the-art 50,000 square-foot Lake Mary, Florida facility, eliminating overlapping functions and reducing facility, utilities, and maintenance costs, which is expected to improve the bottom line by approximately $1 million annually beginning in 2026.

Strengthened the Company's capital structure and financial flexibility by raising approximately $5.0 million in a public offering and an additional $1.5 million through the exercise of warrants, while also eliminating approximately $4.1 million in convertible debt and extinguishing variable conversion warrants. These actions significantly reduced interest expense, simplified the balance sheet, and provided the Company with capital to fund its acquisition-driven growth strategy.

Full year 2025 total net sales increased 144% to $8.3 million, compared to $3.4 million in the prior year, driven by a full year of contributions from the CMS Laser acquisition and growing demand across the Company's diversified industrial end markets.

Secured multi-system orders from a top 5 global semiconductor capital equipment company and delivered a multi-unit sale through MSC Industrial Direct to a leading aerospace manufacturer, reinforcing the Company's penetration into high-value industrial verticals.

Presented a joint remote nuclear decontamination robot at WM Symposia in partnership with Brokk, and introduced a next-generation CleanTech® laser cleaning system custom engineered for a major nuclear power plant client, advancing the Company's presence in the nuclear and energy sector.

Announced a strategic milestone on the advanced Laser Shield Anti-Drone System (LSAD), successfully reaching the prototype stage with the LASE Group's joint initiative, which demonstrated the capability to neutralize a Class 1 drone through laser engagement. Technical drawings and system documentation were submitted to U.S. Special Operations Command in support of REPTILE 26 and to Naval Special Warfare Command.

Engaged MZ Group as the Company's investor relations advisor, underscoring a renewed commitment to proactive institutional investor engagement, broadening market awareness, and transparent communication with the investment community.

Management Commentary

Wayne Tupuola, Chief Executive Officer of Laser Photonics, commented: "2025 was a breakthrough year for Laser Photonics. We more than doubled revenue to $8.3 million, consolidated our manufacturing footprint into a single state-of-the-art facility, expanded our customer base across high-value verticals including semiconductor, aerospace, and defense, and meaningfully strengthened our capital structure and balance sheet. Fourth quarter revenue increased 90% year-over-year to $2.5 million, capping a year of accelerating momentum across our platform.

"We enter 2026 from a position of strength. Our facility consolidation is expected to generate nearly $1 million in annual cost savings, our balance sheet has been simplified with the elimination of $4.1 million in convertible debt, and our recent capital raise provides the financial flexibility to invest in our highest-return growth opportunities. While the quarter included non-cash charges related to our restructuring and integration activities, these were deliberate actions to position the Company for sustainable, profitable growth. With the combination of our leaner cost structure, diversified revenue base, and expanding product portfolio, we are well positioned to reinvest in scalable growth initiatives heading into the remainder of 2026.

"Looking ahead, our priorities are clear: drive higher-margin revenue in our core industrial and defense platforms, capture the full cost and efficiency benefits of our consolidation, and continue to selectively pursue accretive acquisitions that strengthen our market position. We are particularly excited by the progress of our Laser Shield Anti-Drone System, which recently reached the prototype stage. We believe the rapidly expanding counter-drone market represents a meaningful new growth vector for the Company, and we are well-capitalized to pursue it. We have never been more optimistic about the future of Laser Photonics and the value we are building for our shareholders."

Fourth Quarter 2025 Financial Results

Total net sales for the fourth quarter of 2025 increased 90% to $2.5 million, as compared to $1.3 million in the same year-ago quarter. For the full year 2025, total net sales increased 144% to $8.3 million, compared to $3.4 million in the prior year. Revenue growth was driven by a full year of contributions from the CMS Laser acquisition, expanded product offerings following the Beamer acquisition, and continued organic growth across industrial and defense end markets.

Gross profit for the fourth quarter of 2025 was ($1.1) million, compared to ($0.9) million in the same year-ago quarter. The negative gross margin in both periods primarily reflected purchase accounting adjustments and inventory charges associated with the CMS Laser acquisition. For the full year 2025, gross profit was $1.2 million, or 14% of total revenues, compared to $0.4 million, or 12% of total revenues, in the prior year, reflecting improving underlying margins as integration efforts progress.

Total operating expenses for the fourth quarter of 2025 were $6.4 million, as compared to $2.4 million in the same year-ago quarter. The increase was primarily attributable to $4.1 million in non-cash impairment charges on intangible assets and property, $1.8 million in stock-based compensation and shares issued for services, and investments in scaling the business following the CMS Laser and Beamer acquisitions.

Net loss for the fourth quarter of 2025 totaled $9.4 million, as compared to net income of $0.6 million in the same year-ago quarter. The increase in net loss was from the change in other income (expenses), increased operating expenses, offset by increased gross profit. For the full year 2025, net loss totaled $17.5 million, compared to $2.5 million in the prior year.
