Company advanced efforts to secure U.S. FDA 510(k) clearance to advance on path towards planned U.S. market expansion beyond Forensic Use Only settings
Fourth quarter sequential and year-on-year revenue growth of 16%, supported by increased demand for drug testing cartridges
NEW YORK, Aug. 15, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Intelligent Bio Solutions Inc. (Nasdaq: INBS) ("INBS" or the "Company"), a medical technology company delivering intelligent, rapid, non-invasive testing solutions, today announced its financial results and operational highlights for the fiscal fourth quarter and full-year ended June 30, 2025.
Fiscal 2025 marked a year of growth for the Company, driven by higher-margin cartridge sales, operational streamlining, and regulatory advancements that support future expansion in the U.S. market, beyond current Forensic Use Only settings. The Company continues to expand its commercial presence internationally, with an active customer base exceeding 450 accounts across 24 countries, and 18 distribution partners.
"Fiscal 2025 was a pivotal year for our business as we continued to lay the foundation for global growth," said Harry Simeonidis, President and CEO at Intelligent Bio Solutions. "We delivered sequential growth over fiscal quarters three and two, driven by increased cartridge revenue, improved operational discipline, and growing international momentum. As we enter fiscal 2026, we're focused on three strategic priorities: further accelerating growth, advancing operational excellence, and expanding beyond Forensic Use Only settings in the U.S. Our FDA regulatory pathway remains on track, and we are committed to achieving FDA clearance to expand into the U.S., the world's largest drug screening market, and deliver our non-invasive solution to more organizations seeking fast, dignified, and reliable testing alternatives."
Progress Toward FDA Clearance and U.S. Market Expansion
INBS remains focused on securing FDA 510(k) clearance for its opiate test system for codeine in the U.S., enabling broader use beyond current Forensic Use Only settings. In fiscal 2025, the Company advanced its regulatory strategy through increased engagement with regulatory consultants, refined clinical study design, and the generation of new scientific and clinical data to support its submission.
- The Company's submission to the FDA was supported by a comprehensive dataset comprising new positive data that further validates the security and performance of its innovative fingerprint sweat-based drug screening technology.
- INBS submitted performance data derived from advanced quantification methods, including human eccrine sweat testing. An Ultra-Micro Balance scale confirmed the system's capability to detect and analyze the minute sweat volumes present in a single fingerprint.
- The application reflects strategic input from specialized FDA consultants and expert third party partners.
- Regulatory expansion efforts beyond the U.S. continue, with active scoping underway in Canada, Indonesia, and the Philippines.
- U.S. market research efforts have progressed beyond initial scoping, with micro-level analysis underway to assess regulatory barriers, relevant drug testing legislation, population distribution, and regional industry concentrations.
Expansion Across Key Markets
Revenue from?sales of goods in fiscal Q4 increased by 16% year-on-year and quarter-on-quarter, supported by increased demand for drug testing cartridges, steady account acquisition across safety-critical sectors and growing partnerships. Cartridge sales remained the Company's highest-margin revenue stream, contributing a growing share of total income and reinforcing the strength of its recurring revenue model.
- 2025 fiscal fourth quarter revenue reached $843,884, up 16% year-on-year from 2024 fiscal fourth quarter revenue of $727,824 and up 16% quarter-on-quarter from 2025 fiscal third quarter revenue of $728,867, reflecting steady sequential growth.
- Revenue from cartridge sales increased 9% quarter-on-quarter, 24% year-on-year for the fiscal fourth quarter, and 14% year-on-year for the full fiscal year.
- Revenue from reader sales increased 15% quarter-on-quarter.
- The Company secured 115 new accounts throughout the year, bringing the total active customer base to over 450. The Company expects this accelerated pace of new active account growth to continue into the future.
- New distributor partnerships and deployments in large-scale transport, logistics and construction networks underpinned strategic growth across the UK, Europe, and the Middle East.
Operational Efficiencies and Business Localization Strengthen Fundamentals

Additionally, it commenced implementing a new accounting system for its subsidiary Intelligent Fingerprinting Limited and plans to complete this by the third fiscal quarter of FY 2025-26.
- The addition of a sixth U.S. patent strengthened the Company's intellectual property portfolio and reinforced its long-term defensibility.
