    Ispire Technology Inc. Reports Financial Results for Fiscal Second Quarter 2026

    Ongoing Focus on Collections Drives 19% Reduction in Net Accounts Receivable since June 30, 2025

    Cash
     of $17.6 Million at December 31, 2025 

    LOS ANGELES, Feb. 6, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Ispire Technology Inc. (NASDAQ: ISPR) (“Ispire,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), an innovator in vaping technology and precision dosing, today reported financial results for the second quarter of fiscal 2026, for the three months ended December 31, 2025.

    Fiscal Second Quarter 2026 Financial Results

    • Revenue of $20.3 million versus $41.8 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2025.
    • Gross profit of $3.5 million compared to $7.7 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2025.
    • Gross margin of 17.1% compared to 18.5% for the second quarter of fiscal 2025.
    • Total operating expenses of $10.3 million compared to $15.1 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2025.
    • Net loss of $6.6 million, compared to net loss of $8.0 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2025.

    “This quarter represented an inflection point for Ispire during its yearlong cost cutting and customer quality rationalization efforts and we believe future quarters will see top line growth, consistent cash flows and bottom-line improvement. We are confident we have laid a solid foundation for future success,” commented Michael Wang, Co-Chief Executive Officer of Ispire. “During the second quarter of fiscal 2026, we maintained our focus on prioritizing high-quality revenue, and reinforcing our disciplined and intentional approach to sustainable growth. This was particularly evident in our efforts to reduce net accounts receivable, which continues to have strong success. Over the second fiscal quarter we reduced net accounts receivable by 19.5% to $37.9 million, compared to $47.0 million at the end of fiscal year 2025.”

    “We continue to lay important groundwork across core areas of the business, including the ramp up of our manufacturing capabilities in Malaysia as we prepare to increase production throughout fiscal 2026. Momentum continues to build for our proprietary G-Mesh technology, with several large and mid-sized nicotine manufacturers engaged in discussions to evaluate its use in next-generation vaping devices, as we work toward potential licensing and partnership opportunities. In addition, our IKE Tech joint venture is making steady global progress, collaborating with regulators across Europe, Southeast Asia, and the Middle East to support the broader adoption of age-gating technology as a safer industry standard.  In the US, although most adult consumers want flavored e-cigarettes, nearly all of the flavored e-cigarettes are both unauthorized by the FDA and sold through illicit channels.  While we welcome the US Federal Government’s strengthened enforcement mandate of the illicit trade of vapes, we believe that such enforcement can only be truly effective by pairing it with the creation of a robust, legal market of FDA authorized flavored e-cigarette products. Ispire, with IKE, is a key player in the creation of this market of legal, approved products, using its technologies to both prevent youth-access, ensure product authenticity and provide solutions to secure devices before misuse occurs. This is where we are seeing macro tailwinds in our favor relating to the US FDA’s stated position on flavored ENDS products and age-gating. Since October 2025, the FDA’s explicit position is that you must have age gating technology if you want flavored products approved. Ispire, through its IKE joint venture, has one of the leading and most low friction technologies in this space, and we look forward to capitalizing on this opportunity in due time”, Mr. Wang concluded.

    Jay Yu, Chief Financial Officer of Ispire, said, “The second quarter of fiscal 2026 reflects continued progress as we focused on strengthening the Company’s financial foundation. Disciplined cost controls drove a year-over-year decline in operating expenses, which decreased from $15.1 million to $10.3 million over the second fiscal quarter, highlighting the impact of our efficiency initiatives. Our net accounts receivable also declined to $37.9 million as of December 31, 2025, compared with $47.0 million as of June 30, 2025, reflecting our ongoing focus on higher-quality customers. These actions position the Company for enhanced financial flexibility and support sustained value creation over the long term.”

    Financial Results for the Fiscal Second Quarter Ended December 31, 2025

    Ispire reported revenue of $20.3 million for the fiscal second quarter ended December 31, 2025, versus $41.8 million for the prior comparable period. The decrease in revenue is due to the strategic shift away from lower quality cannabis customers, resulting in a decrease of overall product sales. 

    For the second quarter of fiscal 2026, gross profit was $3.5 million compared to $7.7 million in the prior comparable quarter. Gross margin was 17.1% compared to 18.5% for the second quarter of fiscal 2025. The decrease in gross margin was primarily due to changes in product mix with less higher margin products being sold during the three months ended December 31, 2025.

    Total operating expenses were $10.3 million for the second fiscal quarter of 2026, compared to $15.1 million for the same period last year.

    Net loss was $6.6 million or $0.12 per share for the fiscal second quarter of 2026, versus a net loss of $8.0 million, or $0.14 per share for the fiscal second quarter of 2025.

    At December 31, 2025, Ispire held cash of $17.6 million and working capital of $3.5 million.

  • Ispire Technology Inc. Reports Financial Results for Fiscal Second Quarter 2026

    Ongoing Focus on Collections Drives 19% Reduction in Net Accounts Receivable since June 30, 2025

    Cash of $17.6 Million at December 31, 2025

    Los Angeles, February 6, 2026 – Ispire Technology Inc. (NASDAQ: ISPR) (“Ispire,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), an innovator in vaping technology and precision dosing, today reported financial results for the second quarter of fiscal 2026, for the three months ended December 31, 2025.

    Fiscal Second Quarter 2026 Financial Results

    • Revenue of $20.3 million versus $41.8 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2025.
    • Gross profit of $3.5 million compared to $7.7 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2025.
    • Gross margin of 17.1% compared to 18.5% for the second quarter of fiscal 2025.
    • Total operating expenses of $10.3 million compared to $15.1 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2025.
    • Net loss of $6.6 million, compared to net loss of $8.0 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2025.

    “This quarter represented an inflection point for Ispire during its yearlong cost cutting and customer quality rationalization efforts and we believe future quarters will see top line growth, consistent cash flows and bottom-line improvement. We are confident we have laid a solid foundation for future success,” commented Michael Wang, Co-Chief Executive Officer of Ispire. “During the second quarter of fiscal 2026, we maintained our focus on prioritizing high-quality revenue, and reinforcing our disciplined and intentional approach to sustainable growth. This was particularly evident in our efforts to reduce net accounts receivable, which continues to have strong success. Over the second fiscal quarter we reduced net accounts receivable by 19.5% to $37.9 million, compared to $47.0 million at the end of fiscal year 2025.”

    “We continue to lay important groundwork across core areas of the business, including the ramp up of our manufacturing capabilities in Malaysia as we prepare to increase production throughout fiscal 2026. Momentum continues to build for our proprietary G-Mesh technology, with several large and mid-sized nicotine manufacturers engaged in discussions to evaluate its use in next-generation vaping devices, as we work toward potential licensing and partnership opportunities. In addition, our IKE Tech joint venture is making steady global progress, collaborating with regulators across Europe, Southeast Asia, and the Middle East to support the broader adoption of age-gating technology as a safer industry standard.  In the US, although most adult consumers want flavored e-cigarettes, nearly all of the flavored e-cigarettes are both unauthorized by the FDA and sold through illicit channels.  While we welcome the US Federal Government’s strengthened enforcement mandate of the illicit trade of vapes, we believe that such enforcement can only be truly effective by pairing it with the creation of a robust, legal market of FDA authorized flavored e-cigarette products. Ispire, with IKE, is a key player in the creation of this market of legal, approved products, using its technologies to both prevent youth-access, ensure product authenticity and provide solutions to secure devices before misuse occurs. This is where we are seeing macro tailwinds in our favor relating to the US FDA’s stated position on flavored ENDS products and age-gating. Since October 2025, the FDA’s explicit position is that you must have age gating technology if you want flavored products approved. Ispire, through its IKE joint venture, has one of the leading and most low friction technologies in this space, and we look forward to capitalizing on this opportunity in due time”, Mr. Wang concluded.

    Jay Yu, Chief Financial Officer of Ispire, said, “The second quarter of fiscal 2026 reflects continued progress as we focused on strengthening the Company’s financial foundation. Disciplined cost controls drove a year-over-year decline in operating expenses, which decreased from $15.1 million to $10.3 million over the second fiscal quarter, highlighting the impact of our efficiency initiatives. Our net accounts receivable also declined to $37.9 million as of December 31, 2025, compared with $47.0 million as of June 30, 2025, reflecting our ongoing focus on higher-quality customers. These actions position the Company for enhanced financial flexibility and support sustained value creation over the long term.”

    Financial Results for the Fiscal Second Quarter Ended December 31, 2025

    Ispire reported revenue of $20.3 million for the fiscal second quarter ended December 31, 2025, versus $41.8 million for the prior comparable period. The decrease in revenue is due to the strategic shift away from lower quality cannabis customers, resulting in a decrease of overall product sales.

    For the second quarter of fiscal 2026, gross profit was $3.5 million compared to $7.7 million in the prior comparable quarter. Gross margin was 17.1% compared to 18.5% for the second quarter of fiscal 2025. The decrease in gross margin was primarily due to changes in product mix with less higher margin products being sold during the three months ended December 31, 2025.

    Total operating expenses were $10.3 million for the second fiscal quarter of 2026, compared to $15.1 million for the same period last year.

    Net loss was $6.6 million or $0.12 per share for the fiscal second quarter of 2026, versus a net loss of $8.0 million, or $0.14 per share for the fiscal second quarter of 2025.

    At December 31, 2025, Ispire held cash of $17.6 million and working capital of $3.5 million.

    Ispire-Backed IKE Tech Invited to Participate in FDA Roundtable on PMTA Submissions

    Invitation-Only Forum Underscores FDA Recognition of IKE Tech as a Key Stakeholder and Highlights the Strategic Role of Age-Gating Technology in the Future of ENDS Regulation and Compliance

    LOS ANGELES, Feb. 4, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Ispire Technology Inc. (“Ispire” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: ISPR), a trailblazer in vaping technology and precision dosing, announced that IKE Tech LLC (“IKE Tech” or “IKE”), a joint venture that includes Ispire as a founding partner, has been invited by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to participate in its Roundtable Discussion with Small ENDS Manufacturers on Premarket Tobacco Product Application (PMTA) Submissions.

    The invitation-only roundtable, taking place February 10, is the first FDA forum of its kind focused on gathering direct feedback from select electronic nicotine delivery system (ENDS) manufacturers on the PMTA process. Participation is limited to 30 companies nationwide, underscoring FDA recognition of IKE Tech as an important stakeholder in the evolving regulatory framework for ENDS products.

    IKE is set to participate on the Manufacturing Controls panel — one of five FDA-led panel discussions designed to examine real-world challenges, best practices and opportunities for improving the PMTA process.

    “This invitation reflects growing recognition by regulators that technology, particularly point-of-use age-gating, is a critical component of a responsible ENDS ecosystem,” said Michael Wang, Co-CEO of Ispire. “This is a significant opportunity to contribute constructively to a dialogue that can improve regulatory clarity while advancing public health objectives. The FDA’s engagement reinforces that age-gating is no longer a peripheral concept — it is central to the future of regulation. We look forward to sharing how technical controls can offer a more effective pathway for adult products while ensuring the highest standards of youth protection.”

    IKE is developing a blockchain-enabled, Bluetooth-based age-gating component designed to verify legal-age access at the point of use, rather than solely at retail. The technology recently became the subject of the first-ever component PMTA submission for an interoperable age-verification system, positioning it as a potential enabling technology for next-generation regulatory compliance.

    Wang added: “Our strategic investment in IKE Tech positions Ispire at the center of regulatory dialogue as the FDA evaluates how innovation can strengthen compliance, protect youth and support lawful market pathways for adult products. By aligning commercial participation with strategic integration, we are advancing our long-term commitment to safety-focused innovation and regulatory readiness”

    The FDA roundtable is intended to provide manufacturers with an opportunity to share firsthand experience and perspectives on PMTA submissions, including scientific, manufacturing and operational considerations. Feedback from the session is expected to inform future FDA guidance and potential refinements to the PMTA review process.

  • Ispire Technology Inc. Reports Financial Results for the Fiscal Year 2025

    Cost cutting measures instituted in Fiscal 2025 helped cut total operating expenses by approximately 39% to $7.8 Million year-over-year

    Net Accounts Receivable Reduced approximately 29% from $62.4 Million to $44.5 Million Year-Over-Year

    Cash and Cash Equivalents of $22.7 Million at September 30, 2025
     

    Los Angeles, November 6, 2025 – Ispire Technology Inc. (NASDAQ: ISPR) (“Ispire,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), an innovator in vaping technology and precision dosing, today reported financial results for the first quarter of fiscal 2026, for the three months ended September 30, 2025.

    Fiscal First Quarter 2026 Financial Results

    • Revenue of $30.4 million versus $39.3 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2025.
    • Gross profit of $5.1 million compared to $7.7 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2025.
    • Gross margin of 17.0% compared to 19.5% for the first quarter of fiscal 2025.
    • Total operating expenses of $7.8 million compared to $12.9 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2025.
    • Net loss of $3.3 million, compared to net loss of $5.6 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2025.

    “Our first fiscal quarter 2026 results demonstrate the steps we instituted in fiscal 2025 to strengthen our financial foundation and position Ispire for sustainable, profitable growth are taking effect,” commented Michael Wang, Co-Chief Executive Officer of Ispire. “We made a deliberate decision to focus on quality customers over volume, and while revenue of $30.4 million reflects this strategic shift, the operational improvements are substantial. Our total operating expenses decreased significantly to $7.8 million compared to $12.9 million in the same period last year, a reduction of nearly 39% while our net accounts receivable declined approximately 29% from $62.4 million as of September 30, 2024 to $44.5 million as of September 30, 2025. This improvement was a direct result of our focus on aggressive cost controls, disciplined expense management, and higher quality customers, while bringing our non-GAAP EBITDA to $0.6 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2025. We expect this trend to continue through fiscal 2026.”

    “From an operations standpoint, our IKE Tech joint venture is gaining meaningful traction globally, working with regulators in Europe, Southeast Asia, and the Middle East to adopt age-gating technology as a mandatory standard. We are in deep discussions with numerous large and medium-sized nicotine companies regarding our innovative G-Mesh technology solutions for their next-generation vaping devices, as we aim to secure licensure and/or partnership agreements in the coming months. Lastly, we remain excited about the build-out of our Malaysian manufacturing facility as we look to ramp up production in fiscal 2026,” Mr. Wang concluded.

    Jay Yu, Chief Financial Officer of Ispire, said, “This quarter represents a significant milestone in our financial transformation. The substantial reduction in operating expenses from $12.9 million to $7.8 million year-over-year demonstrates that our cost optimization initiatives are delivering significant results. We also reduced net accounts receivable to $44.5 million as of Septmber 30, 2025 versus nearly $62.4 million as of September 30, 2024, as we continue to focus on improving working capital and pursuing higher-quality customers. We remain committed to generating shareholder value through sustainable cash flow generation and continued balance sheet strengthening.”

    Financial Results for the Fiscal First Quarter Ended September 30, 2025

    Ispire reported revenue of $30.4 million for the fiscal first quarter ended September 30, 2025, versus $39.3 million for the prior comparable period, a decrease of 22.8%. The decrease in revenue is the combined effect of decreases in product sales in the United States as well as a decrease in vaping product sales across Asia Pacific, Europe and South Africa.

    For the first quarter of fiscal 2026, gross profit was $5.1 million compared to $7.7 million in the year-ago period. Gross margin decreased to 17.0% compared to 19.5% for the first quarter of fiscal 2025. The decrease in gross margin was primarily due to changes in product mix with less higher margin products being sold during the three months ended September 30, 2025.

    Total operating expenses were $7.8 million for the first fiscal quarter of 2026, compared to $12.9 million for the same period last year.

    Net loss was $3.3 million or $0.06 per share for the fiscal first quarter of 2026, versus a net loss of $5.6 million, or $0.10 per share for the fiscal first quarter of 2025.

    At September 30, 2025, Ispire held cash and cash equivalents of $22.7 million and working capital of $9.3 million.

    Management’s Explanation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

    The Company believes that presenting Non-GAAP financial information provides meaningful supplemental data that assists investors in understanding its operating results. The adjustments to GAAP net loss primarily include non-cash expenses or non-recurring items that management believes are not indicative of ongoing performance. The following non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures, when used in conjunction with their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, net income (loss), provide meaningful supplemental information to both management and investors, facilitating the evaluation of performance across reporting periods, identify trends affecting our business, and project future performance. These non-GAAP financial measures may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. Specifically, the adjustments include:

    • Credit loss expenses, a non-cash item, which reflect provisions recorded under the Company’s CECL methodology and may vary significantly as the Company develops additional historical experience.
    • Income tax expense, which can fluctuate based on jurisdictional mix and timing of taxable income.
    • Stock-based compensation, a non-cash expense related to equity awards.
    • Inventory impairment, representing non-cash write-downs of certain slow-moving or obsolete inventory.
    • Depreciation, which is a non-cash charge related to fixed assets.
    • Debt issuance cost amortization, which is a non-cash charge related to the loan payable.
