Summary
SEALSQ reported a $27.8M net loss for the first half of 2026, a significant figure relative to its $548M market cap. This follows preliminary H1 revenue of $11M announced in July, which showed 120% year-over-year growth but did not disclose profitability. The company has now reported H1 2026 revenue of $11.2 million, an increase of 131%, and reaffirmed its FY2026 revenue guidance of $27M-$36M. The loss reveals heavy spending or non-cash charges that offset the revenue surge. Investors will want details on cash burn and whether full-year guidance remains achievable.
