Telos Corporation reported robust fourth-quarter and full-year 2025 financial results, highlighted by a 77% year-over-year revenue increase in Q4 to $46.8 million and a significant turnaround to positive Adjusted EBITDA of $7.3 million. The company also generated strong cash flow from operations of $8.0 million in Q4 and $30.2 million for the full year. A major market-moving event is the increase in the share repurchase authorization to $75.0 million, representing nearly 24% of the current market capitalization, signaling strong management confidence and a commitment to shareholder returns. This follows $13.6 million in repurchases during 2025. While the company recorded a $14.9 million non-cash goodwill impairment in its Secure Networks segment, the overall operational improvements and positive 2026 guidance for double-digit revenue growth and Adjusted EBITDA expansion suggest a strong positive outlook. Investors should monitor the execution of the share repurchase program and continued growth in the Security Solutions segment.
