London, United Kingdom -
Newsfile Corp.
- August 24, 2026 - Gorilla Technology Group Inc. (NASDAQ: GRRR)
("Gorilla" or the "Company"), a global solution provider in Security
Intelligence, Network Intelligence, Business Intelligence, IoT
technology and data centres, today announced its unaudited financial
results for the six months ended June 30, 2026.
Gorilla delivered a significant acceleration in revenue and a marked
sequential improvement in reported operating performance during the
second quarter. The outperformance was principally driven by
earlier-than-anticipated delivery across multiple contracted customer
programmes, enabling the Company to recognize the associated revenue
ahead of its original expectations. This was complemented by continued
execution across Gorilla's broader portfolio.
Financial highlights
- - H1 revenue nearly doubled: Revenue increased 99.3% to
approximately US$78.4 million, compared with US$39.3 million in H1 2025.
Growth was driven by the scaling of Gorilla's AI infrastructure and
data-centre programmes, alongside continued delivery across its security
intelligence, network intelligence and smart-city operations, including
Egypt, Taiwan and Thailand.
- - Reported and adjusted operating performance: Gorilla reported
an IFRS operating loss of approximately US$47.2 million for H1 2026,
compared with US$9.1 million in H1 2025. The 2026 results included
approximately US$25.4 million of stock-based compensation expense,
US$4.0 million of downward fair-value measurement effects, US$2.0
million of debt-transaction costs and US$0.3 million of
acquisition-related expenses. Adjusted EBITDA was a loss of
approximately US$14.6 million, compared with adjusted EBITDA of
approximately US$6.2 million in H1 2025.
- - Reported and adjusted net result: Gorilla reported an IFRS
net loss of approximately US$46.9 million for H1 2026, compared with
US$8.5 million in H1 2025. Adjusted net loss was approximately US$15.6
million, or US$0.58 per share, compared with adjusted net income of
approximately US$6.3 million, or US$0.32 per share, in H1 2025.
- - Operating cash efficiency improved year on year: Net cash
used in operating activities declined by approximately US$8.2 million,
or 65.3%, from US$12.5 million in H1 2025 to US$4.3 million in H1 2026.
- - Cash position strengthened: Cash increased by approximately
US$79.8 million during H1, driven principally by financing inflows and
supported by customer collections. Gorilla closed the period with
approximately US$179.4 million in cash.
- - Infrastructure investment accelerated: Gorilla deployed
approximately US$14.1 million during H1 for the acquisition of property
and equipment, including capital advances and project work-in-progress.
Property and equipment, including capital work-in-progress, reached
approximately US$29.4 million at June 30, 2026.

Statement from Jay Chandan, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
"This is the clearest evidence yet that Gorilla has entered a different phase of scale," said Jay Chandan, Chairman & CEO.
"In one year we managed to nearly double our first half revenue to
US$78.4 million. Our second quarter revenue increased 78% sequentially
and 138% year-on-year to US$50.1 million, while our reported operating
loss narrowed by approximately 85% compared with Q1.
The progression matters. In the first half, we absorbed a significant
share-based compensation charge largely tied to services rendered prior
to 2025 and other significant accounting effects. With their removal
during the first half of 2026, we are poised for an improvement in
operating results.
We are now converting years of preparation into delivery at scale. We
are investing in hardware, infrastructure, people and execution capacity
because we see a substantial opportunity ahead of us. Infrastructure
cannot be switched on like a tap. Equipment must be procured, installed,
commissioned and integrated. Customers must migrate workloads and
utilisation must then progress toward steady-state levels.
That investment is happening now. During H1, Gorilla deployed
approximately US$14.1 million for the acquisition of property and
equipment, while property and equipment, including capital
work-in-progress, reached approximately US$29.4 million at June 30,
2026. We are building the capacity and delivery platform required to
support a much larger business. Our priorities for the remainder of 2026
are unambiguous: bring more capacity into service, increase
utilisation, expand the workloads we deliver for existing customers and
convert additional demand into revenue. We are on track to meet
previously announced delivery timelines. The objective is not simply to
deploy hardware. It is to build long-term customer relationships around
infrastructure, compute and associated services."
Statement from Bruce Bower, Chief Financial Officer
"The first-half results demonstrate both the scale of Gorilla's
investment and the improvement in cash efficiency," said Bruce Bower,
Chief Financial Officer.
"On an IFRS basis, Gorilla reported an operating loss of approximately
US$47.2 million and a net loss of approximately US$46.9 million.
Adjusted EBITDA was a loss of approximately US$14.6 million, and
adjusted net loss was approximately US$15.6 million. The reconciliation
included below provides investors with the individual adjustments and
their respective treatment."
"H1 revenue increased 99.3%, while net cash used in operating activities
declined by approximately US$8.2 million, or 65.3%, to US$4.3 million.
Put simply, we nearly doubled revenue while reducing operating cash
usage from 31.8% to 5.5% of revenue."
"This improvement was achieved while Gorilla deployed approximately
US$14.1 million during H1 for the acquisition of property and equipment.
Cash deployment may increase as we fund equipment purchases,
project-related deposits, construction and commissioning activities.
These expenditures represent the planned conversion of liquidity into
productive infrastructure and delivery capacity intended to support
future revenue-not a weakening of our underlying operating discipline."
"The Company recorded an overall increase in cash of approximately
US$79.8 million during H1, driven principally by financing inflows and
supported by customer collections. We closed the period with
approximately US$179.4 million in cash. As this liquidity is deployed,
our cash balance may fluctuate as we fund existing projects and build
the capacity required to support future revenue."
"We are investing ahead of the revenue and utilisation curve, but we are
doing so from a position of substantial liquidity. Our priorities
remain disciplined capital allocation, project execution, improved
utilisation and the conversion of infrastructure investment into
sustainable revenue and cash flow."
Infrastructure investment and the path to steady state
Gorilla's current financial profile reflects the deliberate acceleration of its AI infrastructure strategy.
Infrastructure projects require capital to be deployed before their full
revenue and margin potential can be realized. Hardware procurement is
followed by installation, commissioning, integration, customer
onboarding, workload migration and utilisation growth. Consequently,
expenditure and accounting recognition may precede steady-state revenue
generation.
The Company's priorities for the second half of 2026 are to:
-
Bring additional infrastructure capacity into service.
-
Increase utilisation across existing deployments.
-
Expand the range of workloads delivered for existing customers.
-
Onboard new customers and convert additional demand.
-
Develop a broader revenue mix across infrastructure, compute and associated services.
-
Maintain disciplined capital allocation and liquidity management while investing for growth.
Financial Outlook
Gorilla is increasing its Q3 2026 revenue planning range to
approximately US$48 million to US$50 million, compared with its previous
planning range of US$36 million to US$40 million. Gorilla now expects
revenue for the 2026 fiscal year of at least US$200 million, raising the
minimum from its previously announced range of US$160 million to US$200
million.
2027 guidance
Gorilla is targeting a revenue range of US$450 to US$500 million in 2027, with substantial gross margin improvement.
This objective is supported by the infrastructure being installed in
connection with previously disclosed projects, the opportunity to
increase utilisation, the potential to expand existing customer
relationships and Gorilla's pipeline of additional demand. The objective
remains subject to execution, customer demand, deployment schedules and
prevailing market conditions.

This press release contains "forward-looking statements" within the
meaning of the "safe harbor" provisions of the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Gorilla's actual results may differ from
its expectations, estimates and projections and consequently, you should
not rely on these forward-looking statements as predictions of future
events. Words such as "expect," "estimate," "project," "budget,"
"forecast," "anticipate," "intend," "plan," "may," "will," "could,"
"should," "believes," "predicts," "potential," "might" and "continues,"
and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking
statements. These forward-looking statements include, without
limitation, statements regarding our beliefs about the expected timing
and amount of revenues that may be recognized under our existing

sign new contracts and execute existing contracts, equipment deployment
schedules and overall market conditions, along with those other risks

and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially
from expected results. Most of these factors are outside of the control
