Fiscal Year 2025 Financial Results

Total Revenues increased 54% to S$4.8 million (US $3.7 million) for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 compared to S$3.1 million in the same period last year. The increase was primarily due to an increase in Provision of Professional Services attributable to the addition of new clients and increased activity under newly secured contracts, and an increase in Sale of Hardware Solutions stemming from the deployment of dedicated key personnel under the hardware solutions offering resulting in greater volume of completed deliverables and higher revenue recognized, offset by a decrease in Sale of Software Licenses and Maintenance Licenses and Provision of Hosting and Supporting Service revenue.

Cost of Revenue increased to S$3.0 million (US $2.3 million) for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 compared to S$2.2 million in the same period last year. The increase was primarily due to higher contractor service fees and higher costs associated with third-party hardware solutions, reflecting increased activity in this segment and in line with the growth in revenue during the year.

Gross Profit Margins increased to 37% for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 compared to 29% in the same period last year. The increase was primarily due to higher revenue during the year relative to cost of revenue, driven by increased revenue from professional services and hardware solutions, partially offset by increased contractor service fees and costs associated with third-party hardware solutions.

Total Operating Expenses increased to S$2.7 million (US $2.1 million) for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 compared to S$1.8 million in the same period last year. The increase was primarily due to an increase in general and administrative expenses offset by a decrease in selling and distribution expenses.

Net Loss was approximately S$1.1 million (US $0.8 million) for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 compared to a loss of S$1.0 million in the same period last year.

As of December 31, 2025, cash and cash equivalents were approximately S$7.4 million (US $5.7 million).

Management Commentary

TechCreate CEO Heng Hai Lim commented: “We recognize that the temporary trading halt of our shares remains top of mind for many of our shareholders. At this moment, we are continuing to work with the appropriate regulatory authorities to address and resolve this matter as soon as possible. During this period of regulatory review, we are confined and limited to what we can share regarding the investigation, including specific timing or progress updates. That said, we are working diligently to help bring this matter to a resolution. To the extent we are able to, we intend to provide additional information through the appropriate Regulation Fair Disclosure channels once the halt is lifted. Transparency remains a core component of TechCreate, and we will continue to share updates with our shareholders to the extent we are permitted to do so.

“In the meantime, we remain focused on operating business as usual. For the year, we delivered encouraging top-line growth, driven by strong client growth in our professional services business and renewed momentum in our hardware solutions offerings and capabilities. Provision of professional services and sale of hardware solutions revenue grew 106% and 100% year-over-year, respectively. More recently, we announced a collaboration with pQCee to explore incorporating a NIST-approved post-quantum cryptography algorithm into our QR Hybrid POS Terminal. As quantum-safe security becomes increasingly important to digital payments infrastructure, we aim to be early in demonstrating how post-quantum encryption can be integrated into real-time payment systems such as ours.

“Looking ahead into the rest of 2026, we remain focus on creating Innovative solutions through our Research and Development efforts in areas like Post Quantum Computing, Atomic Delivery versus Payment Use Case and the adoption of AI in both our development processes and our core Real-Time Engine Product Offerings. In addition, the Company is actively expanding our Sales and Marketing capabilities to build our sales channels and market reach.”
