Gross margin surges as SuperCom pivots to higher-value contracts

Operating income rose 187% to $1.1 million from the prior year period, while EBITDA increased 56% to $2.25 million in Q2 2025, marking twelve consecutive quarters of positive (non-GAAP) EBITDA as of Q2 2025.

The company also established nine new strategic partnerships to strengthen local market reach across states and is targeting both organic and inorganic expansion through reseller acquisition.

"Since mid-2024, we've secured over 30 new electronic monitoring contracts, entered 11 new states, and established nine strategic partnerships with regional partner providers to accelerate market access. In the second quarter, we expanded into Tennessee, Virginia, and Nebraska, and were selected as the only new EM provider on a statewide procurement vehicle in North Carolina, enabling streamlined access to counties across the state."
