Unusual Machines doubled its revenue in 2025 and cut its losses nearly in half — and the market took notice.
UMAC stock climbed 10.21% on Monday after the company released preliminary full-year earnings showing revenue of $11.2 million, up 101% from $5.57 million in 2024.
Q4 revenue came in at approximately $4.9 million, a 144% jump from the $2 million reported in Q4 2024.
The net loss for the full year came in at $19.2 million, or $(0.74) per share. That compares to a loss of $31.98 million, or $(3.84) per share, in 2024.
The company ended the year with roughly $142.5 million in cash and short-term investments, giving it a solid runway as it continues to scale up.
CEO Allan Evans described 2025 as “a tale of two halves.” The first half was focused on preparation and hiring, while the second half saw rapid operational expansion as enterprise demand for NDAA-compliant drone components picked up.
Gross margin came in at 35% for the full year, ticking up slightly to 36% in Q4. Management pointed to a growing mix of enterprise sales over retail as a key driver of that improvement.
Rapid Expansion on the Ground
The operational build-out in 2025 was aggressive. Headcount grew from 19 employees in Q2 to 81 by year-end, and has since grown past 140.
The company expanded its Orlando footprint from 6,900 sq ft to 62,500 sq ft across five locations, and moved into a 25,000 sq ft fulfillment center in December.
U.S. production of motors started in November 2025, with Fat Shark headset production kicking off in January 2026.
What’s Ahead in 2026
Unusual Machines laid out a clear set of targets for 2026. The company plans to add battery pack manufacturing during the year and camera manufacturing in late 2026.
Automated equipment is expected to materially boost motor output in the second half of 2026.
The company also set a goal of reaching cash flow positive operations by the end of 2026 — something it did not achieve in 2025.
The stock has gained 29.12% year-to-date and is up 200.18% over the past 12 months, following the 7.8% gain on Friday before Monday’s 10.21% move.
