Monitor the upcoming announcement of two new clients with >1,000 locations each, expected within 30 days, and the national grocery chain rollout for revenue conversion. The widening GAAP loss and lack of formal guidance suggest caution despite strong top-line growth and new contract wins.
Price Chart
Executive Summary
Creative Realities reported Q2 2026 revenue of $21.5M (up 65% YoY) but a GAAP net loss of $(0.41) per share, widening from $(0.17) a year ago. The company highlighted record revenue, improved Adjusted EBITDA of $2.0M, a $12.2M public offering, and a major new contract with a national grocery chain estimated at >$10M.
