POSaBIT Reports Third Quarter 2026 Financial Results
POSaBIT Reports Third Quarter 2026 Financial Results
Point of Sale Revenue Up 39% Year Over Year in Q3
Gross Profit Up 6% Year Over Year in Q3
TORONTO & SEATTLE--(BUSINESS WIRE)--POSaBIT Systems Corporation (CSE: PBIT, OTC: POSAF) (the “Company” or “POSaBIT”), a leading provider of Point of Sale and payment solutions for the cannabis industry, today announced its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2026.
“Our Point of Sale business continues to deliver strong growth, up 39% year over year in Q3. That growth expands our recurring revenue from monthly and annual SaaS fees, which reduces risk to the business and makes our forecast more predictable,” said Ryan Hamlin, CEO and Co-founder of POSaBIT. “With approximately $4 million of cash on hand, we elected to pay down our loan with Perga Capital Partners by $1 million ahead of schedule and negotiated new terms that benefit the Company.”
“Our Brand Portal for producers and processors keeps gaining ground in Washington, with most of the state’s top cannabis brands now live on the platform,” Hamlin continued. “Combining our dominant Washington retailer footprint with our growing brand relationships puts POSaBIT in a strong position to connect the entire cannabis ecosystem in our home state.”
“This quarter we shipped two of our biggest AI investments yet. The first is the new POSaBIT MCP server, an AI connector that gives vendors and retailers direct AI access to their data. The second is a full refresh of our back-end merchant portal, built with our internal AI capabilities, which makes it easier for retailers to manage their Point of Sale,” Hamlin concluded.
Balance Sheet
As of September 30, 2026, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $2.9 million, compared to $3.34 million as of June 30, 2026. Excluding the $1 million loan paydown to Perga Capital Partners in early September, cash would have been approximately $3.9 million, an increase of approximately $0.56 million during the quarter.

Financial Reports
Full details of the financial and operating results are described in the Company’s unaudited interim consolidated financial statements for the quarter ended September 30, 2026, together with the accompanying notes. The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements and additional information about POSaBIT are available on the Company’s website at www.posabit.com/investor-relations or on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca.
Non-IFRS Measures
Adjusted Revenue, Adjusted Gross Profit (and Adjusted Gross Profit Margin) and Adjusted EBITDA are non-IFRS measures used by management that do not have any prescribed meaning by IFRS and may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. The Company defines Adjusted Revenue as gross revenue, minus license support revenue, plus actual licensing cash received as part of POSaBIT’s licensing deals. The Company defines Adjusted Gross Profit as Adjusted Revenue less company cost of goods sold, and Adjusted Gross Profit Margin as a percentage of Adjusted Gross Profit as compared to Adjusted Revenue. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as net income or loss generated for the period as reported, before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization and further adjusted to remove changes in fair values and expected credit losses, foreign exchange gains and/or losses, impairments, licensing support revenue and other income, and further adjusted to add cash receipts from licensing agreements, share based compensation and transaction and finance costs. The Company believes these non-IFRS measures are useful metrics to evaluate its core operating performance and uses these measures to provide shareholders and others with supplemental measures of its operating performance. The Company also believes that securities analysts, investors and other interested parties, frequently use these non-IFRS measures in the evaluation of companies, many of which present similar metrics when reporting their results. We caution readers that Adjusted Revenue, Adjusted Gross Profit (and Adjusted Gross Profit Margin) and Adjusted EBITDA are not substitutes for gross revenue, gross profit or profit/loss, respectively.
