TruGolf Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2025 Results

Salt Lake City, Utah, April 16, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — TruGolf Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: TRUG), a leading provider of golf simulator software and hardware, today reported its fourth quarter and full year 2025 results.

2025 vs. 2024:
Q4 2025 vs. Q4 2024:

Financial Highlights

  • Cash: $10.5 million unrestricted; $12.6 million including restricted cash, up 15.5% from December 31, 2024.
  • Total liabilities decreased to $15.9 million from $21.8 million at year-end, following the exchange of certain notes payable into equity and settlement of merger-related obligations.
  • Golf Simulator Hardware sales increased 7.1% for the year.
  • Stockholders’ Equity: Positive $4.3 million vs. $(4.6) million deficit at year-end 2024.
  • Net Loss: $(1.96) million for the 2025 fourth quarter as compared to $(5.86) million for the 2024 period. The 2025 loss was primarily due to a non-recurring, non-cash $2.0 million inventory adjustment resulting from a change in accounting systems.
  • Revenue: $5.1 million for the quarter vs. $6.2 million in 2024, but up sequentially from third quarter’s $4.1 million. The year-on-year sales decline primarily reflected timing of product deliveries and deferred recognition related to software and franchise contracts.

“2025 was a transitional year for TruGolf, where we addressed capital market issues, revamped our accounting systems and procedures and made major investments in new products to position the company for significant growth in the years ahead.” Said Chris Jones, CEO and Director of TruGolf. “We have overcome many challenges in the past year and we appreciate our shareholder’s patience as we strengthened our capital structure, increased liquidity and expanded our product lineup to create the broadest suite of offerings in simulated golf. 2025’s results, while understandable, are not in line with the potential we see for our company. Our 2026 outlook is a better reflection of what we think TruGolf can deliver when operating on all cylinders. We expect our first flagship franchise location for TruGolf Links to open in Cherry Hill New Jersey in the second quarter and we have introduced D3 wagering software into our product lineup. We have also seen increased market interest in our recently introduced TruGolf RANGE product and believe this will translate into significantly higher sales in 2026.”

Q4 2025 Results:

Fourth quarter 2025 sales were $5.1 million, down from 2024’s fourth quarter sales of $6.2 million. While hardware sales were up year-over-year in the quarter, the change in how the Company books software licenses resulted in the decline for the period. Cost of goods in the quarter increased $1.8 million due to a non-cash one time inventory adjustment. As a result, gross profit for Q4 2025 declined to $1.1 million from $3.9 million in Q4 2024.

Salaries in Q4 2025 declined 76.4% to $1.1 million from $4.7 million in Q4 2024. This change was the result of the company now capitalizing the salary component of software development costs. Selling, General & Administrative (SG&A) costs increased to $2.3 million from $1.2 million due to increased amortization from the aforementioned capitalized software development costs.

Interest expense in Q4 2025 declined dramatically to $0.1 million from $4.8 million in Q4 2024. The decline was the result of earlier efforts to restructure the Company’s debt and convert it into preferred shares. Net loss for the quarter declined to $1.96 million from $5.86 million in the 2024 period.

2025 Results:

For the year, sales were $18.9 million as compared to $21.3 million in 2024, a decline of $2.4 million or 11.3%. While hardware sales of golf simulators were up 7% for the year, the increase couldn’t offset the decline in the sale of software licenses. That decrease was due to how the Company sold its content subscription licenses during the year ended December 31, 2025, which has resulted in $1.3 million in deferred revenue to be recognized over the next twelve months.

Cost of goods increased by $1.96 million, or 26.5% to $9.4 million for 2025, as compared to $7.4 million for 2024. Substantially all of the increase was attributable to $2.2 million in non-recurring inventory adjustments arising from the reconciliation of inventory records in connection with the Company’s transition to a new accounting system during the year. The Company does not expect similar adjustments to recur following the completion of the system transition. These adjustments are not representative of the Company’s ongoing cost structure. Excluding these charges, cost of revenue was relatively flat year-over-year, consistent with prior year levels relative to revenue volume.

Gross profit decreased $4.4 million, or 31.4%, to $9.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $13.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. Gross margin declined to 50.4% from 65.2%, primarily reflecting the impact of the non-recurring inventory reconciliation adjustments described above and the decline in higher-margin content software subscription revenue. Excluding the $2.2 million inventory adjustments, adjusted gross margin would have been approximately 62.1%, compared to 65.2% in the prior year. Management presents these adjusted measures to provide investors with additional insight into the Company’s underlying operating performance exclusive of the system transition-related adjustments.

Selling, General & Administrative (SG&A) costs increased $4.3 million or 65.0%, to $11.0 million for 2025, compared to $6.7 million in 2024. The increase was driven higher by the following factors: (i) increased costs of contract labor of $1.3 million used in connection with product upgrades; (ii) increased amortization of $0.97 million of capitalized software development costs; (iii) increased professional fees $0.25 million in 2025, reflecting higher legal and accounting costs associated with the Company’s public company compliance obligations and financial statement preparation; (iv) higher credit card processing fees of $0.14 million, consistent with changes in the Company’s revenue mix and payment processing activity during the year. Somewhat offsetting these higher operating expenses was a $4.7 million decrease in salaries, wages and benefits due primarily to an increase in salaries being capitalized for time spent on developing new versions of the Company’s platform software.

2025’s loss from operations increased $4.0 million to $(6.1 million), compared to $(2.1 million) for 2024. The widening operating loss was driven primarily by the $4.4 million decline in gross profit, which was largely attributable to the non-recurring inventory reconciliation adjustments and the decline in higher-margin software subscription revenue, while total operating expenses remained essentially flat year-over-year.

Net Cash used in 2025 operating activities decreased by $2.3 million to $1.7 million as compared to $4.0 million in 2024. This improvement occurred despite the increase in Net Loss because of the significant contributions of noncash charges to Net Loss. The largest noncash contributors were: $6.1 million loss on extinguishment of debt; inventory reconciliation adjustments of $2.2 million; the $1.1 million amortization of capitalized software development costs. However, cash used in investing activities increased by $4.2 million primarily due to the Company’s $3.2 million continued and expanded investment in capitalized software development costs. 

Net Loss increased to $15.8 million for 2025, compared to $8.8 million for 2024. The increase in Net Loss was driven by the decline in gross profit and the $6.1 million non-recurring loss on extinguishment of debt, partially offset by a $3.7 million reduction in interest expense resulting from the debt restructuring transactions completed during the year.
