PHILADELPHIA, PA / ACCESS Newswire / February 17, 2026 / Datavault AI Inc. (NASDAQ:DVLT) ("Datavault AI" or the "Company"), a leader in data monetization, credentialing, digital engagement and real-world asset (RWA) tokenization technologies, today announced its updated preliminary (unaudited) fiscal year 2025 revenue is estimated to be $38 to $40 million, exceeding its prior estimate of $30 million by up to 33%. At its midpoint, estimated FY-25 revenue represents approximately 1,300% growth year-over-year
The Company attributed this revenue growth to its customer tech-licensing fees, and its Data Science Group's tokenization and monetization services.
Further, Datavault AI reaffirmed its anticipated FY-26 revenue of $200 million, which, if achieved, would represent a year-over-year increase of 400% to 440%.
KEY FINANCIAL METRICS
FY 2025 (Preliminary, Unaudited):
Estimated Revenue: $38-$40 million
Prior Estimate: $30 million
Incremental Change: +$8-$10 million (+27% to +33%)
Midpoint: $39 million (+30% vs. prior estimate)
FY 2026 (Reaffirmed, Projections):
Anticipated Revenue: $200 million
Anticipated YoY Growth: +400% to +426%
Anticipated Growth vs. Estimated FY 2025 Midpoint: 413%
The Company's updated preliminary FY 2025 revenue marks a significant acceleration in enterprise AI adoption and positions Datavault AI for exceptional growth scaling into 2026. The Company expects to deliver at least $200 million in FY 2026 revenue - if achieved, this would represent a five-fold increase from FY 2025.
"Exceeding our earlier FY 2025 revenue estimate by 30%, at the midpoint, while maintaining our ambitious $200 million target for FY 2026 reflects both the mission-critical nature of our platform and the operational leverage we've built," said Nate Bradley, Datavault AI CEO. "As expected, we finished 2025 strong and are entering 2026 with our most robust, new business pipeline in company history with a relatively clear line of sight to our revenue objectives.
"2025 was marked by numerous new customer wins spanning a wide spectrum of industries," Mr. Bradley added. "Many of those customers were initially 'testing the waters' with early engagement into enterprise AI, asset tokenization and monetization. We expect high rates of customer retention in 2026 and, going forward, anticipate many will increase their engagement levels."
Datavault AI plans to report its audited 2025 financials to the SEC next month.
