Skkynet Cloud Systems Reports Q2 Fiscal 2026 Revenue Increase but Six-Month Decline

Skkynet Cloud Systems, Inc. reported its financial results for the second quarter of fiscal 2026, revealing a revenue of $606,106 for the three months ending April 30, 2026, a 4% increase from $585,712 in the same period last year. However, for the six-month period, revenue decreased by 18% to $1,155,499 compared to $1,414,764 in the prior year. The decline in revenue for the six months is attributed to lower sales from its subsidiary, Cogent, and a strategic shift from perpetual licenses to subscription-based models, which impacts revenue recognition timing.

Operating expenses rose to $875,975 for the three months and $1,642,492 for the six months ended April 30, 2026, compared to $780,405 and $1,411,220, respectively, in the same periods of 2025. This increase is primarily due to higher advertising costs and general administrative expenses, which grew as the company added staff. Consequently, Skkynet reported an operating loss of $269,896 for the three months and $486,993 for the six months, contrasting with a loss of $194,693 and a small profit of $3,544 in the same periods of the previous year.

The company’s net loss for the three and six months ended April 30, 2026, was $109,392 and $335,901, respectively, compared to losses of $227,723 and a net income of $1,340 in the prior year. The significant increase in net loss for the current year is attributed to lower revenues and increased operating expenses. Despite these challenges, Skkynet received a tax refund of $146,232 during the six-month period, which partially offset the losses.

In terms of operational metrics, Skkynet's total current assets increased to $1,937,112 as of April 30, 2026, from $1,831,014 at the end of the previous fiscal year. However, total liabilities also rose significantly to $1,100,112, up from $803,299, primarily due to an increase in deferred revenue and a new long-term loan of $166,773. The company’s accumulated deficit grew to $6,789,287, while total stockholders’ equity decreased to $837,000.

Looking ahead, Skkynet aims to enhance its market position by continuing to develop its cloud-based services and expanding its customer base. The company is also focused on improving its operational efficiency and managing costs effectively. However, management cautions that future results may be influenced by various factors, including market conditions and the company's ability to secure necessary capital for growth initiatives.
