Shares Preliminary Fiscal Year 2025 Results and Updated Fiscal 2026 Outlook
Fourth Quarter Fiscal 2025 Conference Call Set for Monday, June 16, 2025
WOODCLIFF LAKE, N.J., May 23, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — In advance of its participation in the 22nd Annual Craig-Hallum Institutional Investor Conference (May 28) and William Blair’s 45th Annual Growth Stock Conference (June 4), Powerfleet, Inc. (Nasdaq: AIOT) today provided a business update, including preliminary financial results for fiscal year 2025 and an initial outlook for fiscal 2026.
Preliminary Fiscal Year 2025 Results
Powerfleet expects to deliver strong full-year performance in line with, or ahead of, previously communicated guidance:
Total Revenue is expected to be approximately $362.5 million, an increase of +25% year-over-year, in line with previous guidance.Adjusted EBITDA is expected to be approximately $71 million, representing 65% growth year-over-year.During the year, the company realized $16 million in annual cost synergies, with $11 million of that benefit recognized within the fiscal year. Including the additional $5 million in fully realized run-rate synergies, proforma adjusted EBITDA is expected to be $76 million, exceeding prior base guidance of $75 million.Net adjusted debt is expected to be approximately $230 million, better than the previous guidance of $235 million.
“Fiscal 2025 was a milestone year,” said Steve Towe, Chief Executive Officer. “We delivered 65% adjusted EBITDA growth and 25% total revenue growth, inclusive of 7% organic growth, in our core business—clear proof of strong demand, disciplined execution, and the impact of our integration efforts. These results reflect the strength of our team and the solid progress we’re making on our strategic priorities.”
Fiscal Year 2026 Outlook
As the company enters FY26, Powerfleet continues to see strong underlying business momentum. Ongoing macroeconomic factors—including tariff-related pressures and extended customer decision cycles—make it difficult to provide precise FY26 guidance.
“While we recognize external headwinds, the fundamentals of our business are strong,” Towe continued. “We’re executing with discipline, delivering ahead of schedule on synergies, and scaling key growth drivers like Unity and our indirect channels. Demand remains solid, with growing cross-sell activity—giving us strong conviction in our trajectory and long-term value creation.”
With the understanding that there are more external variables than usual outside the company’s control, based on the current view of tariff impacts, and assuming conditions remain broadly stable from here, the following reflects a well-founded tempered outlook for FY26 performance:
Total Revenue growth in the range of 20% to 25%.The revenue base for calculating FY’26 growth rates is $352.5 million, reflecting a modest step down of approximately 3% to FY’25 revenue due to the previously disclosed U.S. GAAP accounting change related to the re-bundling of hardware sales for the legacy Fleet Complete business, effective April 2025, and the shutdown of legacy FSM revenueAdjusted EBITDA growth in the range of 45% to 55%.
Powerfleet remains confident in its long-term growth, driven by the rapid maturation of Unity’s device-agnostic platform and its expanding role in unifying customer operations. These capabilities provide clear competitive advantage and growing monetization potential across new and existing customers.
Once macroeconomic conditions and longer-term tariff impacts are fully understood, Powerfleet will look to issue formal FY26 guidance.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
To supplement its financial statements presented in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), Powerfleet provides certain non-GAAP measures of financial performance. These non-GAAP measures include adjusted EBITDA and net adjusted debt. Reference to these non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to results prepared under current accounting standards, but are not a substitute for, or superior to, GAAP results. These non-GAAP measures are provided to enhance investors’ overall understanding of Powerfleet’s current financial performance. Specifically, Powerfleet believes the non-GAAP measures provide useful information to both management and investors by excluding certain expenses, gains and losses and fluctuations in currency rates that may not be indicative of its core operating results and business outlook. These non-GAAP measures are not measures of financial performance or liquidity under GAAP and, accordingly, should not be considered as an alternative to net income or total debt as an indicator of operating performance or liquidity. Because Powerfleet’s method for calculating the non-GAAP measures may differ from other companies’ methods, the non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. Reconciliation of all non-GAAP measures included in this press release to the most directly comparable GAAP measures can be found in the financial tables included in this press release.
