Strategic Debt Settlement Bolsters Balance Sheet; Company on Track to Report Net Profitability for Q2 FY 2026
Detroit, Michigan, Aug. 11, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Artificial Intelligence Technology Solutions, Inc. (the "Company") (OTCID:AITX), a global leader in AI-driven security and productivity solutions, today announced its outlook on its financial results for the second quarter of its fiscal year 2026, which ends on August 31, 2025, specifically, the Company expects to report net profitability for the quarter, primarily driven by a significant one-time accounting gain from a recent debt settlement.
The Company successfully settled more than $4.5 million in legacy debt for less than 10% of the balance owed. The resulting one-time accounting gain is anticipated to be the key factor in achieving net profitability for the quarter and strengthens the Company balance sheet by reducing its overall debt burden. This news follows the strong operational results reported in the Company's Q1 FY 2026 filing, which included a 57% increase in revenue and an 80% increase in gross profit compared to the same period in the prior year. The Company remains focused on accelerating growth in its core business and achieving sustainable, operational profitability.
"This debt settlement is a crucial step in strengthening our financial foundation," said Steve Reinharz, the Company's CEO/CTO and founder, "While the one-time gain will drive our net income for the quarter, our management team remains laser-focused on generating consistent, long-term operational profitability. We are confident in our strategy to expand our high-margin recurring revenue streams and deliver sustained value for our shareholders."
