AudioEye Q3: Record $11.0M Revenue, $0.08 EPS, $9.3M Cash and New $15M Buyback
AEYE sits 49% above its 52-week low of $5.31 on elevated volume (3.8× avg).
Summary
AudioEye's Q3 10-Q shows record $11.0M revenue and $990K of net income, $9.3M in cash, and a freshly upsized $15M buyback now unshackled from the bank's dollar caps — but EPS of $0.08 badly missed the $0.26–$0.28 guidance issued that morning.

Bank Caps on Buybacks Removed

Analysis · AEYE · Technology
The headline numbers were already out via this morning's guidance and this evening's 8-K, but the 10-Q is where the balance sheet and cash story land: $9.3M of cash versus $5.3M at year-end and $4.0M of nine-month operating cash flow, which is what actually funds the business. It also confirms the company is comfortably clear of its debt covenants and has just freed itself to buy back stock — the Fifth Amendment strips out the old dollar caps on repurchases, leaving only a $5.0M minimum-liquidity condition, and the board replaced the old program with a $15M authorization through October 2027. The offset is that the $0.08 EPS came in far below the $0.26–$0.28 guidance issued the same morning, so the quality of the beat needs scrutiny rather than celebration.
