The ESPP was adopted by the Company’s Board of Directors on March 11, 2025 and approved by the Company’s stockholders at the annual meeting held on May 28, 2025. The ESPP is a voluntary employee benefit program that permits eligible employees to contribute up to 5% of their eligible compensation through payroll deductions each pay period.

Interest Income (Expense)
Current report
Total revenues increased by $8,101,149 or 18.1% to $52,866,001 for the year ended December 31, 2025 from $44,764,852 for the year ended December 31, 2024. This increase in revenue was driven primarily by the award in March 2024, to the Company's subsidiary, Global Technologies Management Resources, Inc. (“GTMR”) of a $103.3 million, five and one-half year contract for Special Missions Management of On-Site Services in support of the Naval Air Systems Command (“NAVAIR”) Program Office 290 (“PMA-290”) Special Missions which ramped up during 2025 and additional direct labor growth on existing contracts.
Current report
Total cost of revenues increased by $6,998,707 or 26.4% to $33,497,144 for the year ended December 31, 2025 from $26,498,437 for the year ended December 31, 2024. This increase generally followed the growth in revenue; however, the percentage increase exceeded revenue growth primarily due to higher subcontractor and labor costs associated with the PMA-290 contract.
Current report
Total operating expenses decreased by $(3,327,623) or (13.0)% to $22,183,419 for the year ended December 31, 2025 from $25,511,042 for the year ended December 31, 2024. The increase in indirect cost of $148,643 was driven primarily by the increase costs of medical insurance year over year, offset by a decrease in bonus expense. The increase in overhead of $156,660 was primarily driven by an expected increase in office costs due to the additional labor force and the standard compensation adjustments for overhead labor. The decrease in general and administrative (“G&A”) costs of $(3,632,926) was primarily driven by a decrease in noncash stock based compensation granted to certain employees of $3,079,501 and a decrease in depreciation as fixed assets become fully depreciated.
Current report
Other income (expense) increased by $3,291,898 or 123.4%, to other income of $624,250 for the year ended December 31, 2025 from other expense of $(2,667,648) for the year ended December 31, 2024. This improvement was primarily driven by the payoff of the Company’s debt as detailed in Note 7, under Part II, Item 8, of this Form 10-K, which reduced interest expense and the increase in interest income due to interest earned on the Company’s higher cash balances. In addition, other income (expense) includes a noncash gain, of $621,000 related to the change in the fair value of a derivative, as noted in Note 12, under Part II, Item 8, of this Form 10-K.

This increase was primarily driven by the increase in state taxes and the increase in valuation allowance. The Company continues to pay current tax while maintaining a valuation allowance on its net deferred tax assets.

Total revenues increased by $3,053,169 or 7.2% to $45,243,812 for the year ended December 31, 2023 from $42,190,643 for the year ended December 31, 2022. This increase in revenue was due to the acquisition of GTMR (“GTMR Acquisition”), partially offset by a reduction in revenue from lost positions on ongoing contracts principally at SSI and Corvus.
Previous report
Total cost of revenues increased by $1,975,159 or 8.0% to $26,568,485 for the year ended December 31, 2023 from $24,593,326 for the year ended December 31, 2022. This increase was driven primarily by the net increased level of effort on contracts proportionate to the changes in revenue noted above.
Previous report
Total operating expenses increased by $7,782,899 or 28.2% to $35,344,152 for the year ended December 31, 2023 from $27,561,253 for the year ended December 31, 2022. The decrease in indirect cost of $(2,924,288) was driven primarily by a reduction in acquisition based bonuses to certain executives from 2022, as well as cost savings implemented in 2023. The increase in overhead costs of $323,807 is related to increases in lease expense due to the GTMR Acquisition. The increase in general and administrative costs of $4,111,286 consist of increases in noncash stock based compensation granted to certain employees, as well as increases in general and administrative salary expense as we in-sourced certain functions such as accounting and business development. The recognition of goodwill impairment resulted from a loss recorded during the third quarter of 2023. The decrease in the loss from change in fair value of contingent earnout is due to adjustments as we finalized the amount after the earnout period ended in late 2023.

This decrease was primarily driven by decreases in the fair value of the derivative liability offset by an increase in interest expense due to rate increases during 2023 on our variable rate debt under our agreements with Live Oak Bank.

Our total backlog consists of remaining performance obligations, certain orders under contracts for which the original period of performance has expired, unexercised option periods, and other unexercised or unscheduled optional orders. Excluding unscheduled options orders, as of December 31, 2024, the Company had $100,481,693 of funded, unfunded, and scheduled priced options. We expect to recognize approximately 28% of the remaining performance obligations over the next 12 months, and approximately 49% over the next 24 months. Including priced options that have been awarded but not yet scheduled of $19,330,955, our grand total backlog is $119,812,648. The remainder is expected to be recognized thereafter. As with all government contracts there is no guarantee the customer will have future funding or exercise their contract option in the out-years. Other budget risks are discussed in “Part I, Item1. U.S. Political, Budgetary, and Regulatory Environment.” Our backlog includes orders under contracts that in some cases extend for several years. Congress generally appropriates funds for our clients on a yearly basis, even though their contracts with us may call for performance that is expected to take a number of years to complete. As a result, contracts typically are only partially funded at any point during their term and all or some of the work to be performed under the contracts may remain unfunded unless and until the U.S. Congress (“Congress”) makes subsequent appropriations and the procuring agency allocates funding to the contract.
