Management Commentary & Outlook

In fiscal 2025, the Company launched its “Clear Blue 2.0” business strategy. Clear Blue 2.0 represents moving into the mainstream high-growth satellite and cellular telecom services with larger and more established partners. Clear Blue has proven its ability to commercially deliver reliable mission critical energy services. As an example, for the 2025 calendar year, Clear Blue’s Africa solar telecom systems delivered a 99.6%. This level of performance showcases Clear Blue’s leading Smart Power technology.

The Clear Blue 2.0 strategy is focused on the following:

  • Product: Pico and Micro products provide strong capabilities for both space-satellite systems and cell phone towers;
  • Customer partners: Large satellite players with aggressive growth prospects are the primary focus of the plan.  Wherever you need wireless telecom, you also need wireless power;
  • Scaling sales volumes: Products and customers that generate higher volumes of more standard product models;
  • Generating positive non-IFRS Adjusted EBITDA: Goal to drive top line sales growth, strong gross margins, and cost reductions are expected to allow Clear Blue to improve profitability significantly;

2025 saw progress across all these focus areas through the successful commercial launch of Pico Plus with Eutelsat, several partnerships developed across space and telecom, a larger-scale Letter of Intent (LOI) to deploy up to 15,000 potential systems with Eutelsat, and significant improvements in its bottom line.

2026 will build on this foundation, which established the commercial viability and higher-potential volume partnerships for the Company’s target markets. The strong bookings in 2025, along with order visibility from customers, have created an opportunity to continue the momentum and expand these relationships further.

This is coupled with Clear Blue’s ongoing operating efficiency initiatives, now increasingly AI driven, where approximately $1,200,000 worth of operating expenses were reduced in fiscal 2025, with the full effect being recognized in fiscal 2026. An additional $700,000 of operating expense and $250,000 worth of other cash-related expense reductions have been identified and are expected to come into effect in the back half of the calendar year.

As a result, with higher expected revenue generation in 2026 and lower overhead, the Company has a clearer pathway to producing improved, and potentially positive Adjusted EBITDA in subsequent quarters.
