Ispire Reports Q4 and Fiscal 2026 Earnings with Revenue Growth but Continued Losses
Ispire Technology Inc. (ISPR) reported financial results for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026, showing a year-over-year revenue increase of 33% to $26.7 million and sequential growth from Q3. However, gross margin declined significantly due to inventory impairment charges in Q4, dropping to 6.3%. For the full fiscal year, Ispire reported total revenue of $96 million, down from $127.5 million in fiscal 2025, primarily driven by reduced sales in cannabis vaping hardware and nicotine products. Despite a net loss for both Q4 ($13.8 million) and the full fiscal year ($33.2 million), Ispire noted improvements compared to prior periods, including lower operating expenses and credit losses. The company also highlighted progress on its Malaysia manufacturing expansion, securing licenses in March 2026 for nicotine vapor products and May 2026 for nicotine pouches. Looking ahead, management emphasized the importance of executing commercial agreements at their new facilities while acknowledging potential challenges from planned capital expenditures that could impact short-term cash flow. The company is also engaging with U.S. regulators to address compliance issues.
