SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., Aug. 4, 2025 /PRNewswire/ --

Software & Services revenue grows 39% to $292 million
Annual recurring revenue grows 39% to $1.2 billion
Net income of $36 million supports non-GAAP net income of $174 million and Adjusted EBITDA of $172 million
Raises full year revenue outlook to a range of $2.65 billion to $2.73 billion, up from $2.60 billion to $2.70 billion.

Fellow shareholders,

Axon closed the first half of 2025 with record quarterly revenue, reflecting consistent execution and a strong foundation for long-term growth. Second quarter revenue grew 33% year over year — our sixth consecutive quarter above 30% and 14th consecutive quarter above 25% — while net income margin of 5.4% supported an Adjusted EBITDA margin of 25.7%.

Software & Services revenue increased 39% year over year to $292 million, driven by growing adoption of premium digital evidence management solutions, real-time operations, virtual reality training and productivity tools. This momentum contributed to Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR) growth of 39% to $1.2 billion. Expansion with our existing customers supported an increase in our net revenue retention rate to 124%.

Connected Devices revenue rose 29% year over year to $376 million, reflecting strength across all major device lines. TASER revenue grew 19% to $216 million, driven by demand for TASER 10. Personal Sensors revenue increased 24% to $93 million, supported by adoption of Axon Body 4. Platform Solutions revenue grew 86% to $67 million, showcasing strong market demand for emerging products, including counter-drone and VR training.

Our performance through the first half of 2025 supports our increased outlook for the remainder of the year. We now expect full-year 2025 revenue between $2.65 billion and $2.73 billion, representing approximately 29% growth at the midpoint. This compares to prior guidance of $2.60 to $2.70 billion, or approximately 27% growth at the midpoint. We continue to target an Adjusted EBITDA margin of approximately 25%, which implies Adjusted EBITDA of $665 million to $685 million — up from $650 million to $675 million previously.

The sections below provide additional detail on the drivers behind our software growth, financial performance, and updated 2025 outlook.

Select Highlights

Axon Software & Services

Axon's Software & Services segment includes a suite of integrated solutions designed to help customers capture truth, manage digital evidence, support real-time operations and enhance productivity. At the center is our digital evidence management platform, which allows agencies to securely store, organize and share evidence in a centralized hub. The vast majority of Axon devices are sold with an accompanying evidence management license.

Building on our foundation in evidence management, Axon's software portfolio also includes real-time operations solutions — such as location and service area monitoring, video live streaming and voice communications — as well as records management, virtual reality training, AI-powered productivity and intelligence tools, and counter-drone and drone-as-first-responder systems. These offerings are configurable across multiple products to meet a wide range of agency needs, with options that span from foundational features to advanced packages with enhanced capabilities.

Axon's broadened software portfolio is the result of decades of scaling investment and innovation, with a robust cadence of new products introduced for customers each year. Our momentum is validated by rising adoption, reflected in net revenue retention rates consistently near 120% for more than 20 consecutive quarters. We remain focused on building what's next, with a strong and growing pipeline of new products and visionary enhancements designed to help agencies work more safely, efficiently and effectively. Our efforts have already resulted in our position as a first mover in delivering AI-driven solutions to our customers, where early feedback reinforces our progress:

"When I started, we had two binders of policies and had to check them before asking supervisors—this [Policy Chat] is amazing!" — Captain Kevin Schoolmeesters, Tampa Police Department (FL)
"I was highly impressed with this new technology's [real-time translation] effectiveness. Being able to communicate directly with the driver without having to look down at a phone to communicate with the operator greatly enhanced officer safety." — Officer, Milford Police Department (CT)

AI In Law Enforcement Trends

Axon's products are developed in close partnership with our customers, and we incorporate their feedback to ensure we are building solutions that address their most difficult, unsolved challenges. As part of this collaboration, we conducted a national survey on the role of AI in law enforcement. Fielded from November 2024 through January 2025, the survey included responses from more than 500 individuals across a range of roles — including patrol officers, sergeants, chiefs of police, sheriffs, detectives, IT personnel and forensic video analysts.

The goal of the survey was to better understand how law enforcement professionals are engaging with AI today and to identify emerging trends that could inform future Axon technology development. Respondents highlighted near-universal staffing shortages, significant time spent on administrative tasks rather than field operations, and broad optimism around AI's potential to help address these challenges — with early usage already demonstrating meaningful time savings.

Respondents reported saving between 6 to 12 hours per week on average through the use of Axon AI tools. Importantly, this feedback was gathered prior to the general availability of our AI Era Plan tools and expands on our prior internal analysis, which had shown the opportunity for Draft One to help reduce the nearly 40% of officer time currently spent writing reports.

Reported weekly time savings:

Draft One: 11 hours
Redaction Assistant: 10 hours
Auto-Transcribe: 6 hours
Priority ranked video audit: 12 hours
Transcript keyword search: 6 hours

Additional insights emphasized the importance of responsible AI deployment. Axon's Responsible Innovation Framework was designed with this in mind — to ensure AI, and all technologies, are developed and deployed ethically and transparently. In alignment with our values-based approach focused on principles and best practices, respondents consistently emphasized two priorities: the need for more training to support responsible use, and the importance of maintaining a human role in final decision-making.

"Axon's product development process always begins with our commitment to responsible innovation. It's foundational to how we build and what we stand for." — Jeff Kunins, Axon CPO & CTO

Key Findings:

Only 14% of law enforcement agencies surveyed reported being fully staffed; more than half were operating at 80% capacity or below.
On average, patrol officers spend just 46% of their time on active policing — roughly equal to the time spent on administrative tasks.
Three in four officers said AI will make their jobs easier, improve investigations, and increase overall efficiency.
68% of respondents believe AI can improve resource allocation and help ensure officers are deployed more effectively.
75% of officers agree that AI should offer insights, while final decisions remain with human officers.
84% of officers want more AI-specific training, highlighting a desire to learn how to use AI in the field responsibly.

"Our job is to solve real problems. By listening to our customers and building what they need most, we create value." — Rick Smith, Axon CEO & Founder

Q2 2025 Summary Results

Quarterly revenue of $669 million grew 33% year over year, exceeding our expectations, driven by strong premium software adoption and robust demand for TASER 10, Axon Body 4 and counter-drone equipment.

Total company gross margin of 60.4% decreased 40 basis points year over year. Excluding the impacts of stock-based compensation and intangibles amortization, adjusted gross margin of 63.3% increased 20 basis points year over year.

Operating loss of $1 million was primarily due to stock-based compensation expense of $139 million.

COGS of $265 million, 39.6% of revenue, included $13 million in stock-based compensation expense.
SG&A expense of $242 million, 36.2% of revenue, included $72 million in stock-based compensation expense.
R&D expense of $163 million, 24.3% of revenue, included $54 million in stock-based compensation expense.

Net income of $36 million (5.4% net income margin), or $0.44 per diluted share, supported non-GAAP net income of $174 million (26.0% non-GAAP net income margin), or $2.12 per diluted share.

Adjusted EBITDA of $172 million (25.7% Adjusted EBITDA margin) increased 37% year over year, driven by higher revenue and operating leverage.

Operating cash flow reflects $92 million of outflow, compared to operating cash flow of $83 million in the prior year, with free cash outflow of $115 million and adjusted free cash outflow of $111 million.

As of June 30, 2025, Axon had $2.1 billion in cash, cash equivalents and investments, and outstanding convertible and senior notes in principal amount of $2.0 billion, for a net cash position of $66 million, down $44 million sequentially.

____________________________________________________________________

⁽¹⁾	Refer to "Statistical Definitions" below.

Annual recurring revenue grew 39% year over year to $1.2 billion. Growth in annual recurring revenue is primarily driven by adoption of premium offerings and new users of our cloud products.
Net revenue retention was 124% in the quarter, reflecting our ability to deliver additional value to our customers over time and de minimis attrition. We drive adoption of our cloud software solutions through integrated subscription plans, which include a variety of premium software options. This Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) metric excludes the hardware portion of customer subscriptions and is normalized to account for phased customer deployments throughout the year.
Future contracted bookings grew 43% year over year to $10.7 billion. This operational metric tracks our total unrecognized contracted bookings, including remaining performance obligations, in addition to contracts with certain termination or other clauses as a result of which they are not otherwise included in remaining performance obligations. We expect to recognize between 20% to 25% of this balance over the next 12 months and generally expect the remainder to be recognized over the following ten years.

2025 Outlook

The following forward-looking statements reflect Axon's expectations as of August 4, 2025 and are subject to risks and uncertainties. Please refer to "Forward-looking Statements" below for more information.

Full Year

Axon expects full year 2025 revenue of $2.65 billion to $2.73 billion, representing approximately 29% annual growth at the midpoint. This is an increase from our prior revenue guidance range of $2.60 billion to $2.70 billion.
Axon expects full year 2025 Adjusted EBITDA dollars of $665 million to $685 million, representing Adjusted EBITDA margin of approximately 25%. This is an increase from $650 million to $675 million previously. Adjusted EBITDA guidance includes expected impacts from U.S. and international tariffs.
- We provide Adjusted EBITDA guidance, rather than net income guidance, due to the inherent difficulty of forecasting certain types of expenses and gains such as stock-based compensation, income tax expenses and gains or losses on marketable securities and strategic investments, which affect net income but not Adjusted EBITDA. We are unable to reasonably estimate the impact of such expenses, which could be material, on net income. Accordingly, we do not provide a reconciliation of projected net income to projected Adjusted EBITDA.
We expect stock-based compensation expenses to be approximately $580 million to $630 million, consistent with prior guidance.
- Full year stock-based compensation expense includes approximately $330 million, related to the broad-based 2024 eXponential Stock Plan and the 2024 CEO Performance Award, primarily in SG&A and R&D. These performance-based incentive programs are achieved through stock price, operational and time-based requirements and are divided into seven substantially equal tranches.
We expect 2025 CapEx to be in the range of $170 million to $185 million. Our 2025 CapEx plans include long-term R&D investment projects, continued capacity expansion, global facility build-outs and new product development costs. Expected capital expenditures do not include costs related to investments in a new headquarters, as we now await local zoning and planning decisions. We expect to have a better update next quarter on when we will be able to break ground on the project.

Quarterly conference call and webcast

We will host our Q2 2025 earnings conference call webinar on Monday, August 4 at 2 p.m. PT / 5 p.m. ET

The webcast will be available via a link on Axon's investor relations website at https://investor.axon.com or can be accessed directly via https://axon.zoom.us/j/93190188519.

Statistical Definitions

Annual recurring revenue: Annual recurring revenue is a performance indicator that management believes provides more visibility into the growth of our revenue generated by our highest margin, recurring services. Annual recurring revenue should be viewed independently of revenue and deferred revenue because it is an operating measure and is not intended to be combined with or to replace GAAP revenue or deferred revenue, as they can be impacted by contract start and end dates and renewal rates. Annual recurring revenue is not intended to be a replacement or forecast of revenue or deferred revenue. We calculate annual recurring revenue as monthly recurring license, integration, warranty and storage revenue, annualized.

Net revenue retention: Dollar-based net revenue retention is an important metric to measure our ability to retain and expand our relationships with existing customers. We calculate it as the software, camera and TASER warranty subscription and support revenue from a base set of agency customers from which we generated Axon Cloud subscription and warranty revenue in the last month of a quarter divided by the software and camera warranty subscription and support revenue from the year-ago month of that same customer base. This calculation includes high-margin warranty revenue but purposely excludes the lower-margin hardware subscription component of the customer contracts, as it is meant to be a SaaS metric that we use to monitor the health of the recurring revenue business we are building. This calculation also excludes the implied monthly revenue contribution of customers that were added since the year-ago quarter, and therefore excludes the benefit of new customer acquisition. The metric includes customers, if any, that terminated during the annual period, and therefore, this metric is inclusive of customer churn. This metric is downwardly adjusted to account for the effect of phased deployments—meaning that, for the year-ago period, we consider the total contractually obligated implied monthly revenue amount, rather than monthly revenue amounts that might have been in actuality smaller on a GAAP basis due to the customer not having yet fully deployed their Axon solution. For more information relative to our revenue recognition policies, please reference our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

Future contracted bookings: This operational metric tracks our total unrecognized contracted bookings, including remaining performance obligations, in addition to contracts with certain termination or other clauses as a result of which they are not otherwise included in remaining performance obligations. Total future contracted bookings for products and services represent total orders that the company has received and not yet performed. We define future contracted bookings as cumulative bookings, net of cancellations, less product and service revenue recognized to date. This operational metric is subject to change based on future events, including terminations for convenience, the execution of optional periods or other contract cancellations. To the extent future contract bookings become recognized as revenue, it is recognized over a period of multiple years. Further, this operational metric may be unique to the Company, as it may be different from similarly titled operational metrics used by other companies. As such, the presentation of this operational metric may not enhance the comparability of the Company's results to the results of other companies.

Supplementary Non-GAAP Measures

To supplement the Company's financial results presented in accordance with GAAP, we present the non-GAAP financial measures of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Gross Margin, Non-GAAP Net Income, Non-GAAP Diluted Earnings Per Share, Free Cash Flow and Adjusted Free Cash Flow. The Company's management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in evaluating the Company's performance in comparison to prior periods. We believe that both management and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing its performance, and when planning and forecasting our future periods. A reconciliation of GAAP to the non-GAAP financial measures is presented below.

EBITDA (most comparable GAAP measure: net income) – Earnings before interest expense, investment interest income, income taxes, depreciation and amortization.
Adjusted EBITDA (most comparable GAAP measure: net income) – Earnings before interest expense; investment interest income; income taxes; depreciation; amortization; noncash stock-based compensation expense; fair value adjustments related to strategic investments, marketable securities, and mark-to-market on our non-qualified deferred compensation liabilities; debt inducement expense associated with the early repurchase of a portion of our 2027 Notes; transaction and integration costs related to strategic investments and acquisitions, including the change in fair value of contingent consideration arrangements; inventory step-up amortization related to acquisitions; certain litigation costs and recoveries related to (1) antitrust cases we consider to be non-recurring and outside of our core operating results and (2) litigation matters for acquired companies that were unresolved at the date of the acquisition; payroll taxes related to 2024 Employee XSP vesting; and other unusual, non-recurring pre-tax items that are not considered representative of our underlying operating performance.
Adjusted EBITDA margin (most comparable GAAP measure: net income margin) – Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of net sales.
Adjusted gross margin (most comparable GAAP measure: gross margin) – Gross margin before noncash stock-based compensation expense, amortization of acquired intangible assets, inventory step-up amortization related to acquisitions, and payroll taxes related to 2024 Employee XSP vesting.
Non-GAAP net income (most comparable GAAP measure: net income) – Net income excluding the costs of noncash stock-based compensation expense; fair value adjustments related to strategic investments and marketable securities; debt inducement expense associated with the early repurchase of a portion of our 2027 Notes; transaction and integration costs related to strategic investments and acquisitions, including the change in fair value of contingent consideration arrangements; inventory step-up amortization related to acquisitions; certain litigation costs and recoveries related to (1) antitrust cases we consider to be non-recurring and outside of our core operating results and (2) litigation matters for acquired companies that were unresolved at the date of the acquisition; payroll taxes related to 2024 Employee XSP vesting; and other unusual, non-recurring pre-tax items that are not considered representative of our underlying operating performance. The Company tax-effects non-GAAP adjustments using the blended statutory federal and state tax rates for each period presented.
Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share (most comparable GAAP measure: earnings per share) – Measure of Company's non-GAAP net income divided by the weighted average number of diluted common shares outstanding during the period presented.
Free cash flow (most comparable GAAP measure: cash flow from operating activities) – Cash flows provided by operating activities minus purchases of property and equipment and intangible assets.
Adjusted free cash flow (most comparable GAAP measure: cash flow from operating activities) – Cash flows provided by operating activities minus purchases of property and equipment and intangible assets, excluding the net impact of investments in our new Scottsdale, Arizona campus and bond premium amortization.
- We believe that free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow excluding the impact of bond premium amortization and net campus investment are non-GAAP measures that are useful to investors and management to evaluate the Company's ability to generate cash. These non-GAAP measures can also be used to evaluate the Company's ability to generate cash flow from operations and the impact that this cash flow has on the Company's liquidity.

Caution on Use of Non-GAAP Measures

Although these non-GAAP financial measures are not consistent with GAAP, management believes investors will benefit by referring to these non-GAAP financial measures when assessing the Company's operating results, as well as when forecasting and analyzing future periods. However, management recognizes that:

these non-GAAP financial measures are limited in their usefulness and should be considered only as a supplement to the Company's GAAP financial measures;
these non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, the Company's GAAP financial measures;
these non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered to be superior to the Company's GAAP financial measures; and
these non-GAAP financial measures were not prepared in accordance with GAAP or under a comprehensive set of rules or principles proposed by a third party.

Further, these non-GAAP financial measures may be unique to the Company, as they may be different from similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. As such, this presentation of non-GAAP financial measures may not enhance the comparability of the Company's results to the results of other companies.

Such statements give our current expectations or forecasts of future events; they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. Words such as "may," "will," "should," "could," "would," "predict," "potential," "continue," "expect," "anticipate," "future," "intend," "plan," "believe," "estimate," and similar expressions, as well as statements in future tense, identify forward-looking statements. However, not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words.

We cannot guarantee that any forward-looking statement will be realized, although we believe we have been prudent in our plans and assumptions. Achievement of future results is subject to risks, uncertainties and potentially inaccurate assumptions. The following important factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements: our exposure to cancellations of government contracts due to non-appropriation clauses, exercise of a cancellation clause or non-exercise of contractually optional periods; the ability of law enforcement agencies to obtain funding, including based on tax revenues; our ability to design, introduce and sell new products, services or features; our ability to defend against litigation and protect our intellectual property, and the resulting costs of this activity; our ability to win bids through the open bidding process for governmental agencies; our ability to manage our supply chain and avoid production delays, shortages and impacts to expected gross margins; the impacts of inflation, macroeconomic conditions and global events; the impact of catastrophic events or public health emergencies; the impact of stock-based compensation expense, impairment expense and income tax expense on our financial results; customer purchase behavior, including adoption of our software as a service delivery model; negative media publicity or sentiment regarding our products; the impact of various factors on projected gross margins; defects in, or misuse of, our products; changes in the costs of product components and labor; loss of customer data, a breach of security or an extended outage, including by our third-party cloud-based storage providers; exposure to international operational risks; delayed cash collections and possible credit losses due to our subscription model; changes in government regulations in the United States and in foreign markets, especially related to the classification of our products by the United States Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives; our ability to integrate acquired businesses; the impact of declines in the fair values or impairment of our investments, including our strategic investments; our ability to attract and retain key personnel; litigation or inquiries and related time and costs; our ability to remediate the material weakness in our internal controls; and counterparty risks relating to cash balances held in excess of federally insured limits. Many events beyond our control may determine whether results we anticipate will be achieved. Should known or unknown risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove inaccurate, actual results could differ materially from past results and those anticipated, estimated or projected. You should bear this in mind as you consider forward-looking statements. These factors are intended as cautionary statements for investors within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Readers can find them under the heading "Risk Factors" in our Annual and Quarterly Reports, and investors should refer to them. You should understand that it is not possible to predict or identify all such factors. Consequently, you should not consider any such list to be a complete set of all potential risks or uncertainties.

Except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to publicly update forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. You are advised, however, to consult any further disclosures we make on related subjects in our Form 8-K, 10‑Q and 10‑K reports to the SEC.
