Alpharetta, Georgia--(Newsfile Corp. - November 12, 2026) - MultiSensor AI Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: MSAI) (the "Company", "MultiSensor AI" or "MSAI") today announced financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2026.
Asim Akram, Chief Executive Officer, said, "Our relationship with our largest distribution customer shows how we believe this business scales. Programs that began in Europe continue to grow, with solar performance monitoring now extending to additional European sites, and have led to that customer's first 14-site rollout in North America. Each step has been built on results their maintenance teams have seen in their own facilities, and we are seeing that same path open up with customers like Manchester Airports Group."
Robert Nadolny, Chief Financial Officer, continued, "Our revenue mix is shifting the way we intended. Software subscriptions are now the majority of our revenue for the quarter, and recurring revenue continues to grow, which gives us better visibility into the periods ahead. We paired that with disciplined spending, and with help from strong collections our cash use slowed meaningfully in the third quarter. With no debt, we have the balance sheet to keep investing in recurring revenue."
Financial Highlights:
Software revenue was $0.9 million in the third quarter of 2026, compared to $0.6 million in the third quarter of 2025, an increase of 43%, and represented 58% of total revenue. Software revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 increased 81% to $2.3 million.
Revenue was $1.5 million in the third quarter of 2026, compared to $1.6 million in the third quarter of 2025, as lower hardware revenue and the discontinuation of inspection and training services in August 2025 offset software growth. Revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 increased 16% to $4.8 million.
Net loss was $1.9 million in the third quarter of 2026, compared to $1.7 million in the third quarter of 2025. Net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 decreased 27% to $6.9 million.
Cash and cash equivalents were $20.4 million as of September 30, 2026, compared to $24.4 million as of December 31, 2025.
Strategic Business Highlights:
Began the first North American rollout of our solution for a large global distributor across 14 sites. Hardware was delivered to sites in October 2026 and installations commenced. Subsequent to quarter end, we also received purchase orders from this customer to extend our solar monitoring solution to nine additional sites, with installations expected in November 2026.
Subsequent to quarter end, we received purchase orders from Manchester Airports Group to expand our deployment at Manchester Airport to an additional screening area, building on the initial deployment completed earlier in 2026.
Began an initial proof-of-value deployment at a national distribution center of a major Australian supply chain and logistics provider, expanding our presence to the Asia-Pacific region.
Advanced our data center pilot with a leading global cloud infrastructure provider, focused on continuous monitoring of high-voltage electrical switch rooms and mechanical pump rooms, and submitted a proposal to expand our deployment across additional electrical infrastructure at the pilot facility and to additional facilities.
