**FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE** 

**Research Solutions Reports First Quarter Fiscal Year 2026 Results**

*Reports 21% Increase in ARR to $21.3 Million, Strong Growth in Net Income, Adjusted EBITDA and Operating Cash Flow*

 

**HENDERSON, Nev., November 13, 2025** — Research Solutions, Inc. (NASDAQ: RSSS), the leading AI-powered research workflow platform, reported financial results for its fiscal first quarter ended September 30, 2025.

**Fiscal First Quarter 2026 Summary (compared to prior-year quarter)**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Annual
Recurring Revenue ("ARR") up 21% to $21.3 million, which includes approximately $14.8 million of B2B recurring revenue
and $6.5 million of B2C recurring revenue. Net B2B ARR growth of $561,000 was up over 300% from last year and represents the best
organic Q1 performance in Company history.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Platform
revenue up 18% to $5.1 million. Platform revenue accounted for 42% of total revenue as compared to 36% in the prior-year quarter.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Total
revenue of $12.3 million, a 2% increase.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Gross
profit up 8% to $6.2 million. Total gross margin improved 270 basis points to 50.6%.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Net
income of $749,000, or $0.02 per diluted share, compared to $669,000 or $0.02 per diluted share.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Adjusted
EBITDA increased 16% to $1.5 million. On a trailing twelve-months ("TTM") basis, the Company has now generated Adjusted EBITDA
of $5.5 million, which represents an 11.1% margin.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Cash
flow from operations increased 31% to $1.1 million, compared to $843,000. On a TTM basis, the Company has now generated $7.3 million
of cash flow from operations.

"Our first quarter results show the continued progress of our transformation toward award winning SaaS and AI solutions. We posted the strongest organic Q1 growth on record within our B2B business, aided by winning multiple six-figure deals, including our largest ever Scite AI deal, which are being driven in part by the new capabilities offered within our Article Galaxy and Scite platforms, including API access, an AI rights add-on and the launch of Scite rankings. With these deals our Average Sales Price ("ASP") is now near all-time high levels," said Roy W. Olivier, President and CEO of Research Solutions. "We also continue to make incremental progress towards our 'Rule of 40' target, thanks to a 21% year-over-year increase in total ARR and our second-best EBITDA quarter in Company history. Lastly, the business continues to generate strong cash flow, placing us in a very strong position to reinvest into our sales and marketing efforts to further drive better execution and deliver for our shareholders."

**Fiscal First Quarter 2026 Results**

Total revenue was $12.3 million, compared to $12.0 million in the year-ago quarter, driven by increased platform revenue versus the prior-year period.

Platform subscription revenue for the quarter was $5.1 million, an 18% year-over-year increase from the prior-year period. The increase was due to organic growth in the core B2C and B2B platforms, with the latter increasing due to a mix of new logo generation as well as upsells and cross sells into existing customers. The quarter ended with annual recurring revenue of $21.3 million, up 21% year-over-year (see the Company's definition of annual recurring revenue below).

Transaction revenue was $7.2 million, compared to $7.7 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2025. The decrease was due to lower per article fees on paid orders. The transaction active customer count for the quarter was 1,326, compared to 1,390 customers in the prior-year quarter (see the Company's definition of active customer accounts and transactions below).

Total gross margin improved 270 basis points from the prior-year quarter to 50.6%. The increase was primarily driven by the continued revenue mix shift to the higher-margin Platforms business, including the expansion of the gross margin for that business.

Total operating expenses were $5.3 million, compared to $5.1 million in the first quarter of 2025. The increase was primarily related to higher sales and marketing expenses offset by reduced general and administrative and stock-based compensation expenses.

Net income in the first quarter was $749,000, or $0.02 per diluted share, compared to $669,000, or $0.02 per diluted share, in the prior-year quarter. Adjusted EBITDA was $1.5 million, compared to $1.3 million in the year-ago quarter (see definition and further discussion about the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP term, below).

**Active Customer Accounts, Transactions and Annual Recurring Revenue**

The Company defines active customer accounts as the sum of the total quantity of customers per month for each month in the period divided by the respective number of months in the period. The quantity of customers per month is defined as customers with at least one transaction during the month.

A transaction is an order for a unit of copyrighted content fulfilled or managed in the Platform.

The Company defines annual recurring revenue ("ARR") as the value of contracted Platform subscription recurring revenue normalized to a one-year period. For B2C ARR, this includes the annualized value of monthly subscriptions, meaning their monthly value multiplied by twelve.

**Use of Non-GAAP Measure – Adjusted EBITDA**

Research Solutions' management evaluates and makes operating decisions using various financial metrics. In addition to the Company's GAAP results, management also considers the non-GAAP measure of Adjusted EBITDA. Management believes that this non-GAAP measure provides useful information about the Company's operating results.

The tables below provide a reconciliation of this non-GAAP financial measure with the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss), plus interest expense, other (income) expense, foreign currency transaction (gain) loss, provision for income taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, and other potential adjustments that may arise. Set forth below is a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net income (loss):
