Insider BriefPRESS RELEASE — SEALSQ Corp (NASDAQ: LAES) (“SEALSQ” or the “Company”), a company focused on developing and commercializing post-quantum semiconductor, PKI and trusted provisioning solutions, today announced its financial and operational results for the six-month period ended June 30, 2026.H1 2026 revenue growth was driven primarily by renewed demand for SEALSQ‘s Vault-IC secure-element product family, continued growth in PKI subscriptions and digital identity services, initial revenue from the Quantix Edge Security semiconductor design center in Murcia, Spain, and six months of consolidated revenue from IC’Alps SAS (“IC’Alps”)IC’Alps, acquired in August 2025, contributed approximately $2.5 million of revenue during H1 2026 and expanded SEALSQ‘s capabilities in custom ASIC design, secure semiconductor architecture and specialized engineering services.North America generated $5.6 million, representing 50% of H1 2026 revenue. Europe, the Middle East and Africa generated $3.7 million, or 33%, while Asia Pacific generated $1.9 million, or 17%. The addition of ASIC design revenue and an improved product mix contributed to the increase in gross profit and the expansion of gross margin.SEALSQ recorded an operating loss of $32.2 million compared to operating loss of $21.2 million in H1 2025, and a net loss of $27.8 million during H1 2026 compared to net loss of $20.0 million in H1 2025. The increase primarily reflects planned investments supporting the post-quantum product roadmap, integration of acquired companies and expansion of the SEALQUANTUM Sovereign Vertical Stack.Carlos Moreira, Founder, Chairman and CEO of SEALSQ noted, “The first half of 2026 was marked by a decisive transition for SEALSQ. Revenue increased by 131%, gross profit more than tripled, our gross margin expanded significantly as we integrated IC’Alps and benefited from stronger demand for our secure-element and PKI solutions. Our $27.8 million net loss reflects substantial investments in R&D, certification, acquisition integration, corporate infrastructure and our Root-to-Qubit strategy. Our priority for the remainder of the year is turning that investment into disciplined execution, production commitments and recurring revenue. With $486.1 million in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash at June 30, 2026, we have the balance sheet to fund that transition on our own terms.”John O’Hara, CFO of SEALSQ added, “H1 2026 results confirm strong top-line momentum, with revenue increasing from $4.8 million to $11.2 million and gross profit increasing from $1.6 million to $5.4 million. Higher interest and other non-operating income partially offset increased operating costs, resulting in a net loss of $27.8 million. Our liquidity position remains strong, and we intend to manage this capital carefully while prioritizing projects that support commercialization, strategic control and long-term value creation.”EBITDA is defined as Operating income/(loss) for the reporting period before depreciation and amortization for the same reporting period.EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure provided for supplemental analysis. It should not be considered a substitute for operating loss, net loss or any other measure prepared in accordance with US GAAP.SEALSQ continued to advance commercialization of its post-quantum semiconductor portfolio during the first half of 2026.Initial commercial revenue from QS7001 and QVault TPM is expected toward the end of H2 2026, with a more significant contribution anticipated as customers complete technical integration and move into production in 2027 and beyond. Timing remains subject to laboratory review, certification, customer qualification and procurement.At September 9, 2026, SEALSQ‘s active business pipeline represented more than $225 million in potential revenue opportunities through 2029, including more than $100 million associated with our Post-Quantum projects, including the QS7001 and QVault TPM. These figures reflect management estimates and are subject to risks such as conversion risks, customer validation, and technical integration.SEALSQ‘s outlook statements are based on current expectations.
