Previous wording
We have focused on rapidly growing our business and believe that our future growth is dependent on many factors, including our ability to increase our customer base, expand the coverage of our solutions among our existing customers, expand our international presence, increase sales of our security solutions and retain our customers. Our future growth will primarily depend on the market acceptance for outdoor gunshot detection solutions, and expanding into new markets for our other security solutions. Challenges we face in this regard include our target customers not having access to adequate funding sources, the fact that contracting with government entities can be complex, expensive and time-consuming, the fact that our typical sales cycle is often very long and difficult to estimate accurately and the fact that negative publicity about our company can and has caused current and potential future customers to evaluate the sales of our solutions more than in the past. We expect international sales cycles to be even longer than our domestic sales cycles. To combat these challenges, we invest in research and development, increase awareness of our solutions, invest in new sales and marketing campaigns, often in different languages for international sales, and hire additional sales representatives to drive sales to continue to maintain our position as a market leader. In addition, we believe that entering into strategic partnerships with other service providers to cities and municipalities offers another potential avenue for expansion.

We will also focus on expanding our business by introducing new products and services to existing customers, such as ResourceRouter, CrimeTracer and as a result of our acquisition of SafePointe, an AI-driven weapon detection system, and acquiring intellectual property assets. We believe that developing and acquiring products for law enforcement in adjacent categories is a path for additional growth. We believe our large and growing installed base of police departments who trust SoundThinking’s products, support, and way of doing business provide revenue growth opportunities. The ability to cross-sell new products provides an opportunity to grow revenues per customer and lifetime value. We will also focus on expanding into new markets in conjunction with new regulations in California requiring weapons detection systems in hospitals and exploring other new markets such as casinos. Challenges we face in this area include ensuring our new products are reliable, integrated well with other SoundThinking solutions, and priced and serviced appropriately. In some cases, we will need to bring in new skill sets to properly develop, market, sell or service these new products depending on the categories they represent. Consistent with this strategy, we expanded our suite of solutions with the acquisitions of Technologic, Forensic Logic and SafePointe.

Net new “go-live” cities and universities represent the number of cities and universities covered by deployments of our gunshot detection solution, ShotSpotter, that were formally approved by customers during the period to be operational and ready to go live, both from initial and expanded customer deployments, net of cities and universities that ceased to be “live” during the period due to customer cancellations. New cities and universities include deployed coverage areas that may have been sold, or booked, in a prior period, but were formally approved during the period as noted above.

In the near term, we expect our cost of revenues to increase in absolute dollars as our installed base increases, although certain of our costs of revenues are fixed and do not need to increase commensurate with increases in revenues. In addition, depreciation expense associated with deployed equipment is recognized over the first five years from the go live date. We also expect cost of revenues to increase in absolute dollars as we continue to invest in our customer success capabilities to drive growth and value for our customers. In addition, many of our standardized components used broadly in our sensors are manufactured in significant quantities in concentrated geographic regions, particularly in Greater China. As a result, the recently increased tariffs placed on components exported from China by the U.S. government will increase our costs of revenues.

Our operations have been financed primarily through net proceeds from the sale of equity, debt financing arrangements and cash from operating activities. Our principal source of liquidity is cash and cash equivalents totaling $9.0 million and accounts receivable of $30.7 million as of June 30, 2025. On June 30, 2025, our available credit facility was approximately $21.0 million and we had $4.0 million outstanding on our line of credit, which was primarily used to fund our acquisition of SafePointe.
Current wording
Our operations have been financed primarily through net proceeds from the sale of equity, debt financing arrangements and cash from operating activities. Our principal source of liquidity is cash and cash equivalents totaling $11.8 million and accounts receivable of $28.5 million as of September 30, 2025. On September 30, 2025, the available borrowing capacity under our credit facility was approximately $36.0 million and we had $4.0 million outstanding on our line of credit, which was primarily used to fund our acquisition of SafePointe.
Previous wording
We believe our existing cash and cash equivalent balances, our available borrowings under our credit facility and cash flow from operations will be sufficient to meet our working capital and capital expenditure requirements for at least the next 12 months. We believe that despite our negative working capital, the costs to perform the short-term deferred revenue is relatively low compared to the balance of $38.5 million. However, should additional working capital be needed, we can utilize the amount available under our credit facility. We believe that we will meet longer term expected future working capital and capital expenditure requirements through a combination of cash flows from operating activities, available cash balances and our available credit facility. Our future capital requirements may vary materially from those currently planned and will depend on many factors, including our rate of revenue growth, the timing and extent of spending on sales and marketing, the expansion of sales and marketing activities, the timing of new product introductions, market acceptance of our products, further investments in our public safety solutions and overall economic conditions. We may also seek additional capital to fund our operations, including through the sale of equity or debt financings. To the extent that we raise additional capital through the future sale of equity, the ownership interest of our stockholders will be diluted, and the terms of these securities may include liquidation or other preferences that adversely affect the rights of our existing common stockholders. The incurrence of debt financing would result in debt service obligations and the instruments governing such debt could provide for operating and financing covenants that would restrict our operations. Additionally, there is no guarantee that debt or equity financing will be available to us on terms that are favorable to us, or at all.
