TORONTO, Aug. 13, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Quarterhill Inc. ("Quarterhill" or the "Company") (TSX: QTRH) (OTCQX: QTRHF), a leading technology innovator providing next-generation, AI-driven Intelligent Transportation System ("ITS") solutions, reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2026. All financial information in this press release is reported in U.S. dollars unless otherwise indicated. The results do not include any contribution from Conduent's tolling solutions business, which Quarterhill agreed to acquire on June 30, 2026, in a transaction expected to close in Q4 2026.
Quarterhill delivered its strongest quarter of profitability in over three years, generating $4.6 million in adjusted EBITDA1 and an adjusted EBITDA margin1 of 11%. This marks the Company's fourth consecutive quarter of positive adjusted EBITDA.
Quarterhill continues to build scale and profitability, supported by sustained financial momentum and its definitive agreement to acquire Conduent's tolling solutions business. Upon closing, the transaction is expected to approximately triple Quarterhill's tolling revenue and establish the Company as the second-largest tolling operator in the U.S., supported by approximately $2 billion of combined backlog1.
Management Commentary
"We continued to strengthen our financial profile in the second quarter as we build a larger, more focused, and more profitable ITS platform," said Chuck Myers, Quarterhill's Chief Executive Officer. "Adjusted EBITDA margin1 expanded meaningfully year over year, gross margin1 expanded to 29% from 15%, and we delivered our fourth consecutive quarter of positive Adjusted EBITDA1, demonstrating the operating leverage in our model. As we scale the business, we expect to drive further margin expansion.
"Our pending acquisition of Conduent's tolling solutions business will fundamentally reshape Quarterhill's scale and financial profile. Upon closing, the transaction is expected to approximately triple our tolling revenue and make Quarterhill the second-largest tolling operator in the U.S., with enhanced capabilities across electronic tolling, back-office operations and roadside systems, and supported by approximately $2 billion of combined backlog. Our immediate priorities are completing the transaction in the fourth quarter and executing a smooth integration, and I have full confidence in our team's ability to deliver on both.
"Momentum is also building across our organic business, spurred by demand for our AI-driven solutions. Recent awards from transportation agencies in Utah, Illinois, Oklahoma, and the Asia-Pacific region demonstrate the value customers see in modernizing tolling and roadside operations with our next generation solutions. We believe the commercial opportunity pipeline in our industry remains above $2 billion as agencies increasingly commit funding to infrastructure modernization.
"With improving profitability, a growing organic pipeline, and the pending Conduent transaction, we believe Quarterhill is well positioned to accelerate its growth and create meaningful long-term value for customers and shareholders as we strengthen our position as a global leader in the ITS industry."

Q2 2026 Financial Review
Quarterhill's Management's Discussion and Analysis and Financial Statements for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, are available on the Company's website and at its profile at SEDAR+.
Revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, were $42.5 million compared to $43.1 million in the year-ago period. The slight decrease in revenue was primarily due to lower tolling project activity, partially offset by growth in the commercial vehicle and enforcement business unit. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, revenue increased 5% to $81.1 million from $77.0 million in the prior-year period.
Gross profit as a value and as a percentage of revenues (gross margin1) may be subject to significant variance in each reporting period due to the nature and type of contract and service work performed, and currency volatility. Gross profit for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, was $12.2 million or 29% as a percentage of revenue, as compared to $6.3 million, or 15%, in the prior year comparative period. The increase in gross profit percentages year-over-year was primarily due to the Company's restructuring, stronger contract economics and disciplined execution on certain tolling contracts, and continued strong margin performance in the Company's commercial vehicle and enforcement operations.
Total operating expenses are comprised of selling, general, and administrative costs ("SG&A"), research and development ("R&D") costs, depreciation, amortization of intangible assets, and other charges. Total operating expenses for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, were $17.4 million, or 41% as a percentage of revenue, compared to $12.9 million or 30% as a percentage of revenue, in the prior year comparative period. The increase is primarily due to an increase in selling, general, and administrative costs associated with stock-based compensation, recruitment, technical consulting, facilities expenses and other charges.
Adjusted EBITDA1 for the quarter was $4.6 million, compared to ($2.7) million in the same period last year. The higher Adjusted EBITDA1 in Q2 2026 was primarily driven by the expansion in gross profit margin resulting from the Company's restructuring and cost-cutting initiatives, as well as the increase in revenues associated with the Company's commercial vehicle and enforcement business.
Net income (loss) for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, was ($5.6) million, or ($0.05) per basic and diluted share, compared to net income (loss) of ($6.8) million, or ($0.06) per diluted share, in the same period last year.
Cash generated from (used in) operations for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, was $5.7 million, compared to cash generated from (used in) operations of ($4.6) million in the same period last year.
Cash and cash equivalents were $26.2 million at June 30, 2026, compared to $14.7 million at March 31, 2026. The increase was primarily due to the completion of the Company's new secured term loan and cash generated from operations during the quarter.

Non-IFRS Financial Measures and Non-IFRS Ratios
Quarterhill uses both IFRS and certain non-IFRS financial measures to assess performance. Non-IFRS financial measures are financial measures disclosed by a company that (a) depict historical or expected future financial performance, financial position or cash flow of a company, (b) with respect to their composition, exclude amounts that are included in, or include amounts that are excluded from, the composition of the most directly comparable financial measure disclosed in the primary financial statements of the company, (c) are not disclosed in the financial statements of the company, and (d) are not a ratio, fraction, percentage or similar representation. Non-IFRS ratios are financial measures disclosed by a company that are in the form of a ratio, fraction, percentage or similar representation that has a non-IFRS financial measure as one or more of its components, and that are not disclosed in the financial statements of the company.
These non-IFRS financial measures and non-IFRS ratios are not standardized financial measures under IFRS, and, therefore, are unlikely to be comparable to similar financial measures presented by other companies. Management believes these non-IFRS financial measures and non-IFRS ratios provide transparent and useful supplemental information to help investors evaluate our financial performance, financial condition, and liquidity using the same measures as management. These non-IFRS financial measures and non-IFRS ratios should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with IFRS.
Adjusted EBITDA - Non-IFRS Financial Measures
We use the non-IFRS financial measure "Adjusted EBITDA" to mean net loss adjusted for (i) income taxes, (ii) finance expense or income; (iii) amortization and impairment of intangibles; (iv) other charges and other one-time items; (v) depreciation of right-of-use assets and property, plant and equipment; (vi) stock-based compensation; (vii) foreign exchange (gain) loss; (viii) other (income) expense; and (ix) changes in fair value of derivative liability. Adjusted EBITDA is used by our management to assess our normalized cash generated on a consolidated basis. Adjusted EBITDA is also a performance measure that may be used by investors to analyze the cash generated by Quarterhill. Adjusted EBITDA should not be interpreted as an alternative to net income (loss) and cash flows from operations as determined in accordance with IFRS or as a measure of liquidity. The most directly comparable IFRS financial measure is net income (loss). See Reconciliation of Net Loss to Adjusted EBITDA below.
Adjusted EBITDA per share - Non-IFRS Ratio
Adjusted EBITDA per share is calculated as Adjusted EBITDA divided by the basic weighted average of common shares. Adjusted EBITDA per share is used by our management and investors to analyze cash generated by Quarterhill on a per share basis. The most comparable IFRS measure is earnings per share. See Reconciliation of Net Loss to Adjusted EBITDA below.
Adjusted EBITDA Margin - Non-IFRS Ratio
Adjusted EBITDA margin is calculated as Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of revenue. Adjusted EBITDA margin is used by our management and investors to evaluate Quarterhill's normalized cash generation and operating profitability relative to revenue, and to compare performance across periods on a consistent basis. The most comparable IFRS measure is net income (loss).
Backlog - Non-IFRS Financial Measure
We use the non-IFRS measure "backlog" to mean the total value of work that has not yet been completed but that in management's experience of similar situations has: (a) a high certainty of being performed pursuant to existing contracts or work orders specifying job scope, value and timing; (b) an expectation of expansion of existing contracts due to expected extensions; and/or (c) been awarded to one or more of our ITS operating subsidiaries as evidenced by a binding contract or where the finalization of a binding contract is reasonably assured. Activities under such contracts may cover a period of up to 15 years. We do not include in "backlog" the value of any expected but unsigned change orders that management considers may apply to such contracts. Backlog is used by management to evaluate the Company's future revenue potential and operational visibility. Backlog provides useful information to investors as it reflects the value of contracted work expected to be recognized as revenue in future periods.
Supplementary Financial Measures
Supplementary financial measures are financial measures disclosed by a company that (a) are, or are intended to be, disclosed on a periodic basis to depict the historical or expected future financial performance, financial position or cash flow of a company, (b) are not disclosed in the financial statements of the company, (c) are not non-IFRS financial measures, and (d) are not non-IFRS ratios. Key supplementary measures disclosed are as follows:
Gross margin %
Calculated as gross profit as a percentage of revenue.
