RENO, NEVADA (November 14, 2025) — Dragonfly Energy Holdings Corp. (“Dragonfly Energy” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: DFLI), an industry leader in energy storage and battery technology, today reported its financial and operational results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2025.

 

“Following our second quarter earnings call, we have taken decisive actions to strengthen our balance sheet and further position Dragonfly Energy for sustained growth,” said Dr. Denis Phares, Chief Executive Officer. “Since July, we successfully completed three public offerings, raising approximately $90 million in cumulative gross proceeds, enabling us to secure a comprehensive debt restructuring agreement with our lenders. Together, these actions significantly reduced our outstanding debt and improved our financial position, providing greater flexibility to pursue near-term strategic opportunities and long-term investments in battery technology.”

 

“Looking at the third quarter, our results demonstrated strong operational execution, as net sales grew 26% year-over-year, marking another consecutive quarter of year-over-year net sales growth. Gross margin expanded an impressive 710 basis points, reflecting higher volumes, product mix, and benefits from our cost optimization initiatives.”

 

“We are particularly encouraged by the growing number of RV OEMs integrating our solutions as standard equipment, validating our compelling value proposition as the industry remains focused on premium offerings. Our deepening RV partnerships, continued expansion into adjacent markets, and growing patent portfolio strengthen our competitive advantage and reinforce Dragonfly’s position as a commercial leader in energy storage.”

 

 

 

 

Third Quarter 2025 Financial and Operating Results

(All financial result comparisons made are against the prior-year period unless otherwise noted)

 

  

Net Sales by Customer Type

     
   (in thousands)     
         
   Fiscal Quarter Ended     
   September 30, 2025   September 30, 2024   Change (YoY) 
OEM  $10,679   $7,400    44.3%
DTC  $5,038   $5,153    -2.2%
Licensing Fee  $250   $167    49.7%
Net Sales  $15,967   $12,720    25.5%

 

Net Sales increased 26.0% to $16.0 million. OEM net sales grew 44.3% to $10.7 million, led by continued strong adoption of our products at the factory level. DTC net sales were $5.0 million compared to $5.2 million, reflecting ongoing macroeconomic pressures.

 

Gross Profit increased 65.0% to $4.7 million, and gross margin expanded 710 basis points to 29.7%, led by increased volume, favorable product mix, and benefits from our cost optimization initiatives. Operating Expenses were $8.5 million, down from $8.9 million, which includes lower R&D costs.

 

The Company reported a Net Loss of $(11.1) million, or $(0.20) per diluted share, compared to Net Loss of $(6.8) million or $(0.98) per diluted share. Adjusted EBITDA excluding stock-based compensation, changes in the fair market value of our warrants, and other one-time expenses, was $(2.1) million, compared to $(5.5) million.

 

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure and should be considered only as supplemental to, and not as superior to, financial measures prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Please refer to the reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to its nearest GAAP measure in this release.

 

Summary and Outlook

 

“This was a transformative quarter for Dragonfly Energy. We have significantly strengthened our financial foundation through decisive capital actions while delivering strong operational results, creating a solid foundation as we continue executing our growth initiatives. Looking ahead, we expect fourth quarter net sales to be approximately $13.0 million, representing year-over-year growth of approximately 7%. We remain confident in our ability to deliver sustainable growth and create long-term value for our shareholders.” concluded Dr. Phares.

 

 

Q4 2025 Guidance

 

Net Sales of approximately $13.0 million.
Adjusted EBITDA of approximately $(3.3) million*

 

* The Company cannot reconcile its expected adjusted operating EBITDA under “Q4 2025 Guidance” without unreasonable effort because certain items that impact net (loss) income and other reconciling metrics are out of the Company’s control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted at this time. Actual results may vary from the guidance and the variations may be material.

 

 

 

 

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

 

The Company provides non-GAAP financial measures including EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as a supplement to GAAP financial information to enhance the overall understanding of the Company’s financial performance and to assist investors in evaluating the Company’s results of operations, period over period. Adjusted non-GAAP measures exclude significant unusual items. Investors should consider these non-GAAP measures as a supplement to, and not a substitute for financial information prepared on a GAAP basis.

 

EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest and other income (expenses), income taxes, and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as EBITDA adjusted for stock-based compensation, change in fair market value of warrant liabilities, non-recurring costs associated with strategic financing, reverse stock split, litigation and loss on settlement. Adjusted EBITDA is a performance measure that the Company believes is useful to investors and analysts because it illustrates the underlying financial and business trends relating to our core, recurring results of operations and enhances comparability between periods.

 

Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and it should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of net loss or other results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are:

 

Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the Company’s cash expenditures, future requirements for capital expenditures, or contractual commitments;
   
Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, the Company’s working capital needs;
   
Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the Company’s tax expense or the cash requirements to pay taxes;
   
Although amortization and depreciation are non-cash charges, the assets being amortized and depreciated will often have to be replaced in the future and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements;
   
Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an inference that the Company’s future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items for which the Company may adjust in historical periods; and
   
Other companies in the industry may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently than the Company does, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure.
