- Returned to Profitability with Net Income of $0.2M
- Third Consecutive Quarter of Positive Adjusted EBITDA
- Revenue Rises to $5.9M, with AI Integration and Cost Controls Driving Efficiency
BOCA RATON, Fla., Nov. 14, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- SpringBig Holdings, Inc. (OTCQB: SBIG) (“Springbig” or the “Company”), a leading provider of AI-powered MarTech solutions for regulated industries, today reported financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2025.
“Q3 marked a key milestone for Springbig, as we again achieved positive net income while maintaining strong operating discipline and margin improvement,” said Jaret Christopher, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of Springbig. “This performance reflects the incredible work of our team and the trust of our customers. We’ve made major strides in expanding our AI-driven marketing and loyalty platform, delivering smarter automation, deeper analytics, and more personalized engagement tools that help our clients drive measurable revenue growth. Our focus remains on execution, strengthening the customer experience, accelerating innovation, and scaling a product that delivers measurable value every day. We’re building a leaner, more focused company positioned for sustained growth.”
Jason Moos, Chief Financial Officer, added, “Our Q3 performance reflects continued operational strength and expense control. Revenue remained essentially flat versus Q2 ($5.9 million vs. $5.8 million), and gross margin held above 70%. Operating income improved from a loss in Q2 to a positive $0.6 million in Q3. Including a one-time accrual reversal, we recorded net income of $219,000, compared to a net loss of $1.1 million in Q2. Excluding that one-time benefit, our operating results remained consistent with the strong Adjusted EBITDA performance we’ve delivered over the past three quarters.”
During the quarter, Springbig strengthened its Board of Directors with the appointment of Larry Ellis, an accomplished executive with extensive compliance and operational experience. His addition enhances the Company’s governance and supports Springbig’s long-term growth and shareholder value objectives.

- Gross Profit: $4.1 million (71% margin) vs. $4.3 million (74% margin) in Q2.
- Operating Income: $0.6 million, compared to an operating loss of $(0.7) million in Q2.

Operational and Strategic Highlights
- ViceCRM Integration Complete: The July 2025 acquisition was fully integrated, adding AI-driven campaign optimization capabilities.

- AI-Driven Enhancements: Expanded automated campaign optimization tools to deliver more targeted, data-driven engagement across retail clients.
Financial Outlook
Springbig enters Q4 2025 with positive momentum and expects to remain Adjusted EBITDA positive for the full year. Management remains focused on sustaining profitability into 2026 through continued AI-driven product innovation, disciplined expense management, and enhanced cash generation* Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP (as defined below) financial measure. For more information, see “Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below. Additionally, reconciliations of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures have been provided in the tables included in this release.
Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure provided in this “Financial Outlook” section on a forward-looking basis. The Company does not provide a reconciliation of such forward-looking measure to the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP because to do so would be potentially misleading and not practical given the difficulty of projecting event-driven transactional and other non-core operating items in any future period. The magnitude of these items, however, may be significant.

Forward Looking Statements
Certain statements contained in this press release constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The words “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intends,” “outlook,” “may,” “might,” “plan,” “possible,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “should,” “would,” and similar expressions may identify forward-looking statements, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. Forward-looking statements are predictions, projections and other statements about future events and financial results that are based on current expectations and assumptions and, as a result, are subject to risks and uncertainties. In particular, these include but are not limited to statements relating to the Company’s business strategy, future offerings and programs and expected financial performance for the third quarter of 2025 and the year ending December 31, 2025. Many factors could cause actual future events to differ materially from the forward-looking statements in this press release, including but not limited to the fact that we have a relatively short operating history in a rapidly evolving industry, which makes it difficult to evaluate our future prospects and may increase the risk that we will not be successful; that if we do not successfully develop and deploy new software, platform features or services to address the needs of our clients, if we fail to retain our existing clients or acquire new clients, and/or if we fail to expand effectively into new markets, our revenue may decrease and our business may be harmed; and the other risks and uncertainties described under “Risk Factors” of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 27, 2025. These forward-looking statements involve a number of risks and uncertainties (some of which are beyond the control of Springbig), and other assumptions, which may cause the actual results or performance to be materially different from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. Readers are cautioned not to put undue reliance on forward-looking statements, and the Company assumes no obligation and does not intend to update or revise these forward-looking statements other than as required by applicable law. The Company does not give any assurance that it will achieve its expectations.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to the results reported in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) included throughout this press release, we have disclosed EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, both of which are non-GAAP financial measures that we calculate as net income before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, in the case of EBITDA, and further adjustments to exclude unusual and/or infrequent costs, in the case of Adjusted EBITDA, which are detailed in the reconciliation table that follows, in order to provide investors with additional information regarding our financial results. Below we have provided a reconciliation of net loss (the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure) to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA.
We present EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA because these metrics are key measures used by our management to evaluate our operating performance, generate future operating plans and make strategic decisions regarding the allocation of investment capacity. Accordingly, we believe that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results in the same manner as our management. Management also believes that these measures provide improved comparability between fiscal periods.
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have limitations as analytical tools, and you should not consider them in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are as follows:
- Although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized may have to be replaced in the future, and neither EBITDA nor Adjusted EBITDA reflect cash capital expenditure requirements for such replacements or for new capital expenditure requirements; and
- EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs; and
- EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect tax payments that may represent a reduction in cash available to us.
Because of these limitations, you should consider EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA alongside other financial performance measures, including net income and our other GAAP results. Also, these non-GAAP financial measures, as determined and presented by the Company, may not be comparable to related or similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
