VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Aug. 12, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ZenaTech, Inc. (Nasdaq: ZENA) (FSE: 49Q) (BMV: ZENA) ("ZenaTech"
, a technology business solution provider specializing in AI (Artificial Intelligence) drone, Drone as a Service (DaaS), enterprise SaaS and Quantum Computing solutions, announces financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2025. Results include a 500% increase in year-over-year revenue for the second quarter and a 250% revenue increase for the first six months of the year compared to the same period last year. In addition, the Company delivered its highest-ever quarterly revenue, driven by exceptional performance for its Drone as a Service (DaaS) segment, steady growth in its enterprise SaaS software division, and progress was made towards advancing its defense industry business.
Key Highlights for Q2 2025
Record Revenue: Revenue for the quarter was $2.24 million, a 503% increase from $371,049 in Q2 2024
Six-Month Growth Momentum: Revenue for the first half of 2025 reached $3.38 million, up 251% from $962,428 for the same period in 2024
Successful Market Diversification: Drone as a Service contributed $1.98 million in revenue for the first half, complementing $1.39 million from enterprise SaaS
Robust Balance Sheet: Cash reserves increased to $10.29 million as of June 30, 2025, up from $3.75 million at year-end 2024
Strategic Acquisitions: Completed six US land surveying and engineering company acquisitions in the first half of 2025, creating a nationwide platform for drone-powered surveying, inspections, inventory management, and other solutions for business and government
Defense Business: Submitted applications for Green UAS (Uncrewed Aircraft Systems), part of the pathway to becoming a verified government supplier, partnered with key business development consultants to help secure government DoD (Department of Defense) contracts, and launched Zena AI Inc., which will focus on advanced AI development of military applications
Shaun Passley, PhD, ZenaTech CEO, commented, “The second quarter 2025 was transformative for ZenaTech. Our aggressive entry into the drone services market has generated substantial revenue growth while our established enterprise software business continues to provide a stable foundation. The integration of our land surveying acquisitions positions us to lead the industry in the DaaS pay-per-use and subscription- based drone services for multiple applications from mapping and inspections to precision agriculture and inventory management.
“Importantly, we made significant headway in our defense business, launching Zena AI, our specialized AI development center for defense applications. We partnered with several consultants to help us find government procurement opportunities, grants, and build relationships to sell to the DoD. And we completed our application submission for the Green UAS certification for the IQ Nani and IQ Square drones, part of our path to be a verified Blue UAS supplier to the DoD. We believe defense will continue to be a key segment for our ZenaDrone subsidiary and we are poised to quickly react to the ongoing historic policy directives furthering American drone makers and industry growth and resulting regulatory and operational changes when implemented,” continued Dr. Passley.
Financial Overview
Revenue Growth: The significant increase was fueled by the full-scale rollout of the Drone as a Service segment encompassing six acquisitions and strong enterprise software license renewals
Asset Growth: Total assets grew to $52.94 million from $34.65 million at December 31, 2024, reflecting the impact of our acquisitions and technology investments
Working Capital Strength: Working capital improved to $13.02 million, up from $3.39 million at year-end 2024
Investments in Business Growth: Expenses increased as expected during the second quarter, largely due to the costs associated with acquired operations, expanded sales and marketing efforts, professional fees, and costs related to integration of acquisitions and product commercialization costs
Operational Highlights
Expanded US DaaS footprint: Expanded presence in the Northwest and Southeast regions through six acquisitions, with immediate plans for integration of drone surveying technology into all locations
Expanded Spider Vision Sensors in Taiwan: Expanded drone component parts manufacturing company, with additional business development and engineering staff to expand partnerships in East Asia targeting defense and commercial markets
Expanding manufacturing capabilities: Accelerating drone production in the US to meet growing future demand through initiating the tripling of square footage in Phoenix by securing a new facility to enable full US drone manufacturing and a team of up to 30 by the end of this year
Path to Profitability While the Company continues to invest heavily in scaling operations and integrating acquisitions, management remains confident in the strategic plan to achieve sustainable profitability as drone adoption accelerates globally
Outlook
ZenaTech expects continued revenue growth in the second half of 2025, driven by:
Full-period contributions from recent acquisitions
A pipeline of target acquisitions with a goal to have acquired a total of 25 DaaS-related companies by mid-2026
Increased utilization of drone technology in existing operations in surveying and inspections, and introduce new applications such as precision agriculture, maintenance inspections, and power washing
Expansion of SaaS offerings across existing and new enterprise customers
Applications submitted and pending for Green UAS certification, which will be followed by Blue UAS certification submission required to be a verified provider on the procurement list to sell to the DoD and other defense agencies
“We are now well-positioned to expand our range of drone services in the US and globally. We have built a strong platform for long-term growth. The demand for drone technology and software solutions is growing rapidly, helped in the US by new Government policy directives, and we are uniquely positioned to capture market share in both commercial and defense sectors. We remain confident in our strategic plan to achieve sustainable profitability as drone adoption accelerates globally,” concluded Dr. Passley.
