Computed values are grepcent-computed from the verified facts above and may differ from ratios the company itself reports. Free cash flow = operating cash flow − capital expenditures. Net margin = net income ÷ revenue. Operating margin = operating income ÷ revenue. Revenue YoY = FY2025 revenue ÷ FY2024 revenue − 1 (consecutive fiscal years only). ROE = net income ÷ period-end stockholders' equity.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Form 10-Q”), contains “forward-looking statements” that involve risks and uncertainties, as well as assumptions that, if they never materialize or they prove incorrect, could cause our results to differ materially and adversely from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements are contained principally in this Item 2—“Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and Part II, Item 1A—“Risk Factors,” but appear throughout this Form 10-Q. Forward-looking statements may include, but are not limited to, statements relating to our outlook or expectations for earnings, revenues, expenses, asset quality, volatility of our common stock, financial condition or other future financial or business performance, strategies, expectations, or business prospects, our customers, and markets generally, or the impact of legal, regulatory, or supervisory matters on our business, results of operations, or financial condition.

Forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of words such as “estimate,” “plan,” “project,” “forecast,” “intend,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “seek,” “target”, “will,” “would,” “could,” “can,” “may”, or similar expressions. Forward-looking statements reflect our judgment based on currently available information and involve a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed in Part II, Item 1A—“Risk Factors” in this Form 10-Q and in our other filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), including our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2025, filed with the SEC on December 11, 2025 (“2025 Annual Report”). Additionally, there may be other factors that could preclude us from realizing the predictions made in the forward-looking statements. We operate in a continually changing business environment and new factors emerge from time to time. We cannot predict such factors or assess the impact, if any, of such factors on our financial position or results of operations. All forward-looking statements included in this Form 10-Q speak only as of the date of this Form 10-Q and you are cautioned not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements. Except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to publicly update or release any revisions to these forward-looking statements to reflect any events or circumstances after the date of this Form 10-Q or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

Revenue

Total revenue increased $8.3 million, or 18%, to $54.0 million in the three months ended June 30, 2026 compared to $45.7 million in the three months ended June 30, 2025. Software license revenue increased $1.2 million, or 6%, to $20.7 million in the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $19.5 million in the three months ended June 30, 2025. This increase is primarily due to the timing of large check verification renewals, offset by decreases due to customers transitioning to our Check Fraud Defender (“CFD”) Software as a service (“SaaS”) offering in the three months ended June 30, 2026 compared to the same period in 2025. SaaS, maintenance, and other revenue increased $7.1 million, or 27%, to $33.3 million in the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $26.2 million in the three months ended June 30, 2025. This increase is primarily due to increased adoption and volume usage of our fraud and identity solutions products in the three months ended June 30, 2026 compared to the same period in 2025.

Cost of Revenue

Cost of revenue includes personnel costs related to billable services and software support, hosting costs, and the costs of royalties for third party products embedded in our products. Cost of revenue increased $1.2 million, or 16%, to $8.2 million in the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $7.0 million in the three months ended June 30, 2025. The increase in cost of revenue is primarily due to an increase in SaaS revenue as well as increased investment in our SaaS products, and increases in service intensive customer work with more personnel costs directly supporting our customers during the three months ended June 30, 2026 compared to the same period in 2025.

Selling and Marketing Expenses

Selling and marketing expenses include payroll, employee benefits, stock-based compensation, and other headcount-related costs associated with sales and marketing personnel. Selling and marketing expenses also include non-billable costs of professional services personnel, advertising expenses, product promotion costs, trade shows, and other brand awareness programs. Selling and marketing expenses decreased $1.1 million, or 10%, to $10.0 million in the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $11.1 million in the three months ended June 30, 2025. The decrease in selling and marketing expense is primarily due to a re-allocation of headcount to focus on service intensive customer work and $1.0 million increase in deferred contract costs in the three months ended June 30, 2026 compared to the same period in 2025.

20

Research and Development Expenses

Research and development expenses include payroll, employee benefits, stock-based compensation, third party contractor expenses, and other headcount-related costs associated with software engineering and product development. Research and development expenses decreased $0.9 million, or 10%, to $8.1 million in the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $9.0 million in the three months ended June 30, 2025. The decrease in research and development expenses is primarily due to increased capitalization of costs for internal-use software of $1.7 million commensurate with alignment of priorities and resources to focus on platform-level capabilities, partially offset by an additional $1.2 million in personnel-related costs excluding stock-based compensation expense. The decrease in research and development expenses is also driven by lower stock-based compensation expense of $0.7 million, reflecting ongoing optimization of our cost structure and strategic realignment of resources toward platform-level capabilities in the three months ended June 30, 2026 compared to the same period in 2025.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses include payroll, employee benefits, stock-based compensation, and other headcount-related costs associated with finance, legal, administration, and information technology functions, as well as third party legal, accounting, and other administrative costs. General and administrative expenses increased $1.7 million, or 15%, to $12.9 million in the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $11.3 million in the three months ended June 30, 2025. The increase in general and administrative expenses is primarily due to higher personnel-related costs including higher stock-based compensation expense, higher bonus expense, and higher severance costs, partially offset by lower audit, accounting and tax fees, and lower bad debt expense during the th

Strategic Acquisitions and Innovation

Mitek has expanded its offerings through targeted acquisitions that support long-term innovation and enhance core capabilities in fraud prevention and identity verification. ID R&D, Inc., a provider of biometric authentication and passive liveness detection technologies, was acquired in 2021 and fully integrated by 2025. ID R&D combines applied AI research, biometric science, and product engineering to accelerate the Company’s technology roadmap and support development of secure, scalable identity and fraud solutions. This acquisition strengthened the Company’s ability to support multimodal authentication across multiple points in the digital identity lifecycle. These proprietary capabilities provide rapid response to evolving threats such as injection attacks, template attacks, and deepfakes.

In 2022, Mitek acquired HooYu Ltd., a provider of orchestration and KYC solutions that integrate biometric verification with real-time data aggregation from third party data providers that include credit bureaus, sanctions lists, and law enforcement databases. The addition of HooYu further expanded the Company’s offerings in fraud, risk management, and compliance.

Addressing Emerging Threats

The rapid advancement of AI has introduced a new class of fraud threats, including hyper-realistic deepfakes, voice clones, and synthetic identities that challenge traditional fraud and identity detection methods. These technologies have altered the market and lowered the barrier to entry for fraudsters, enabling scalable attacks that can bypass legacy systems and exploit digital channels.

Mitek’s solutions are specifically designed to help organizations detect and prevent these advanced forms of manipulation. The Company’s platform incorporates multilayered security capabilities, including biometric validation, passive and active liveness detection, device and behavioral analysis, and deepfake detection. These capabilities work in concert to identify signs of synthetic or altered content and validate the authenticity of users in real time.

To stay ahead of emerging threats, Mitek continues to invest in research and development across fraud, data, AI, identity science, and anti-manipulation technologies. These efforts support the Company’s ability to adapt to the evolving threat landscape and help customers maintain trust, compliance, and security in high-risk digital environments.

Revenue

26

Total revenue increased $7.6 million, or 4%, to $179.7 million in 2025 compared to $172.1 million in 2024. Software license and hardware revenue decreased $7.8 million, or 10%, to $74.1 million in 2025 compared to $81.9 million in 2024. This decrease is primarily due to lower multi-year term license revenue renewal of our Mobile Deposit® software products and a decrease in sales of our legacy identity verification software products in 2025. SaaS, maintenance, and other revenue increased $15.4 million, or 17%, to $105.6 million in 2025 compared to $90.2 million in 2024, primarily due to strong growth in SaaS revenue from our Mobile Verify®, HooYu, MiVIP, Mobile Deposit®, and Check Fraud Defender products, partially offset by a decrease in sales of our legacy identity verification products in 2025 compared to 2024.

Cost of Revenue

Cost of revenue includes personnel costs related to billable services, professional services, and software support, hosting costs, and the costs of royalties for third party products embedded in our products and excludes depreciation and amortization. Cost of revenue increased $2.4 million, or 10%, to $26.8 million in 2025 compared to $24.4 million in 2024. The increase in cost of revenue is primarily due to a related increase in transactional SaaS revenue, partially offset by a decrease in costs due to a decline in sales of our legacy identify verification software license and hardware products in 2025 compared to 2024.

Selling and Marketing Expenses

Selling and marketing expenses include payroll, employee benefits, stock-based compensation, and other headcount-related costs associated with sales, marketing, sales operations, sales engineering and customer success personnel. Selling and marketing expenses also include advertising expenses, product promotion costs, trade shows, and other brand awareness programs. Selling and marketing expenses increased $0.7 million, or 2%, to $41.5 million in 2025 compared to $40.8 million in 2024. The increase in selling and marketing expense is primarily due to higher personnel-related costs due to increased headcount, partially offset by lower other costs in 2025 compared to 2024.

Research and Development Expenses

Research and development expenses include payroll, employee benefits, stock-based compensation, third-party contractor expenses, and other headcount-related costs associated with research, engineering and mobile capture science and product management personnel. Research and development expenses increased $0.6 million, or 2%, to $35.3 million in 2025 compared to $34.6 million in 2024. The increase in research and development expenses is primarily due to higher personnel-related costs and higher third-party contractor expenses, partial
