AI brief of an SEC Form 8-K · SOUNDTHINKING, INC. (SSTI)

SoundThinking Q1 revenue falls 15% to $24.2 million; net loss widens to $7.0 million

Negative Impact 3 of 5 earnings Written later

SoundThinking reported first-quarter 2026 revenue of $24.2 million, down 15% from $28.3 million a year earlier, and a GAAP net loss of $7.0 million, compared with $1.5 million in the same quarter of 2025. The company reaffirmed its full-year 2026 revenue guidance of $109.0 million to $111.0 million, but the weaker quarter and larger loss show shareholders a slower start to the year.

Key points

  • Revenue was $24.2 million versus $28.3 million; Q1 2025 included about $3.5 million in catch-up revenue from renewing two delayed New York City Police Department contracts.
  • GAAP net loss was $7.0 million, or $(0.54) per share, compared with $1.5 million, or $(0.12) per share, a year earlier.
  • Adjusted EBITDA was negative $0.1 million, compared with $4.5 million in the first quarter of 2025.
  • Full-year 2026 revenue guidance of $109.0 million to $111.0 million was reaffirmed, even without a ShotSpotter contract renewal in Chicago.
