First Quarter 2026 Financial Results:

Revenues: Revenue increased 98% to $4,846,430 in the first quarter ended March 31, 2026, from $2,448,606 reported in the same year-ago period.

Gross Margins: Gross margin was 29% in the first quarter ended March 31, 2026, compared to 8% in the same year-ago period.

Selling, General and Administrative (SG&A) Expenses: SG&A expenses decreased 9% to $6,531,969 in the first quarter ended March 31, 2026, from $7,200,250 reported in the same year-ago period.

Management Commentary

KULR Chief Executive Officer, Michael Mo, commented, “First quarter 2026 results demonstrate meaningful progress in our operating performance. Revenue increased 98% year-over-year, partially reflecting growing customer traction across our core battery and energy systems platforms. At the same time, we reduced SG&A expenses and lowered our loss from operations by 22%, showing that we are beginning to drive greater discipline and efficiency through the business. While our reported net loss was impacted by a non-cash mark-to-market loss associated with our bitcoin holdings, the underlying operating trends show a stronger revenue base, improved cost control, and a clearer path toward scaling KULR’s core business.”

The Company reported a cash balance of $19.0 million as of May 13, 2026.
