**Cycurion Reports 2025 Financial Results: Streamlining Costs While Investing in Next-Generation Technology Capabilities**

MCLEAN, Va., April 01, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Cycurion, Inc. (Nasdaq: CYCU) ("Cycurion" or the "Company"), a trusted leader in IT cybersecurity and AI-driven solutions, today reports financial results for full year ended December 31, 2025 and provides a corporate update.

**2025 – Year of Structural Transformation**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Recap:** Following Cycurion's public debut in February 2025, the Company navigated a challenging year characterized by curtailed government contract spending and delays in contract starts due to the 2025 federal government shutdown and DOGE efficiency initiatives, while successfully executing a comprehensive recapitalization and strategic repositioning to support long-term scaling

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Deleveraged Balance Sheet:** Reduced net debt by over 70%, ending the year at just under $3 million compared to $10.5 million at year-end 2024

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Improved Liquidity:** Over $5 million of cash at December 31, 2025

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Capital Structure Optimization:** Streamlined the preferred capital stack, leaving just over 400,000 convertible shares outstanding

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Operational Efficiency:** Implemented $2.2 million in annualized cost-savings initiatives in early 2026 to align the Company's cost structure with the current operating environment

**FY2025 Financial Summary**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Revenue:** $15.1 million in FY2025, compared to $17.8 million in FY2024. Management attributes part of the year-over-year decline to contract timing delays resulting from the 2025 federal government shutdown and associated DOGE efficiency reviews; these headwinds are viewed as transitory. Management views 2025 headwinds as transitory with a positive outlook underpinned by its $112 million contracted backlog with a ~4-year weighted average life.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Gross Profit:** $1.6 million for FY2025 vs $3.6 million in FY2024. In support of its strategy to shift toward higher-margin recurring revenue, Cycurion increased investments in AI-enhanced technology and its ARx platform during 2025. Cycurion anticipates margin expansion in 2026 driven by a transition toward a higher-margin recurring revenue sales mix.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Operating Expenses:** $25.0 million, heavily impacted by $16.8 million in non-cash or non-recurring charges

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ $11.9 million in Business Combination expense

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ $3.9 million in Stock-Based Compensation expense

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ ~$1.0 million in one-time SG&A expenses

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Net Income/(Loss):** $(23.7) million in FY 2025, compared to $1.2 million in FY2024

**Management Commentary**

"2025 was a pivotal year for Cycurion as we became a public company in what was a generationally challenging year in government contracting," said Kevin Kelly, CEO of Cycurion. "While contending with business headwinds in 2025 — including contract delays stemming from the 2025 federal government shutdown and DOGE efficiency initiatives — we successfully strengthened our balance sheet and enhanced liquidity to better position the Company for its next phase of growth. Earlier this year, we also implemented meaningful cost savings initiatives aimed at streamlining operational expenses. While maintaining cost discipline, we also accelerated targeted investments in AI-based technology to drive higher-margin recurring revenue from managed cybersecurity services and our ARx platform. With the addition of our new Chief Revenue Officer and an expanded sales force, our deal funnel focused on growing our higher-margin recurring revenue managed service and cybersecurity offerings remains robust. We expect to see a pick-up in revenue in the second half of 2026 as we begin to realize incremental revenue from contracts currently within our $112 million backlog going live. We also anticipate continuing to grow backlog as we convert our sales funnel to signed awards along with contribution from our recently announced acquisition expected to close in the second quarter."

## Exhibit 99.2

**Exhibit 99.2** 

**Cycurion Goes on Offense: Initiates Legal Action and Seeks Millions in Damages Against ACCESS Newswire and Those Responsible for Disseminating the Unauthorized and Fraudulent Release**

MCLEAN, Va., April 02, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Cycurion, Inc. (Nasdaq: CYCU) ("Cycurion" or the "Company"), a trusted leader in IT cybersecurity and AI-driven solutions, today announced that it has taken aggressive legal action in response to the unauthorized and fraudulent press release disseminated on March 16, 2026, via ACCESS Newswire (NYSE American: ACCS), based in Raleigh, North Carolina.

The Company has engaged litigation counsel and is actively pursuing substantial legal remedies, including claims for damages in the millions of dollars, against ACCESS Newswire, the individuals and entities responsible for placing the unauthorized and fraudulent release with ACCESS Newswire, and any other parties involved in the dissemination of false information that manipulated the market for Cycurion's securities.

Leveraging its advanced proprietary cyber tools and expertise in cybersecurity and digital forensics, the Company is actively identifying the perpetrators of this coordinated scheme.

The March 16, 2026 press release — which falsely stated the Company had entered into a definitive agreement to acquire a Washington, D.C.-based cybersecurity firm — was not authorized, issued, or approved by Cycurion. The entirely false statements did not reflect the Company's actual operations, financial position, or strategic plans.

The unauthorized and fraudulent release was disseminated through ACCESS Newswire and contained multiple signs of inauthenticity, including fabricated contact information, unsupported transaction claims, and fake quotes. Cycurion believes this was part of a deliberate, coordinated effort to create market confusion and manipulate Cycurion's stock price.

"As a publicly traded company, we will not tolerate attacks on our integrity or attempts to deceive our investors," said Kevin Kelly, CEO of Cycurion. "We moved swiftly to correct the record and are now on the offensive — pursuing full accountability and significant damages against those responsible. Our focus remains on executing our strategy, delivering strong results, and building long-term value for our shareholders."

Cycurion has retained Moskowitz Colson Ginsberg & Schulman, LLP in connection with this matter, with the litigation being led by Peter R. Ginsberg. Inquiries regarding the legal action should be directed to Cycurion Investor Relations at (888) 341-6680 or investors@cycurion.com.

The unauthorized release and false information triggered immediate and abnormal trading activity on March 16, 2026, with trading volume surging dramatically above historical averages and the stock experiencing extreme volatility.

The Company has formally notified and is fully cooperating with FINRA and Nasdaq MarketWatch and is working closely with legal counsel and regulatory authorities to investigate the matter and pursue accountability where appropriate.

Cycurion remains focused on its strategic initiatives and is committed to protecting its shareholders and upholding the integrity of the public markets.
