LONDON, Sept. 30, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — RedCloud Holdings plc (Nasdaq: RCT) (“RedCloud” or the “Company”), the company building intelligent infrastructure for global trade, today reported results for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and provided an update on its operations.
Business Developments
- RedCloud’s wholly-owned subsidiary, RedCloud Technologies Limited (“RedCloud UK”), together with the Company in its capacity as parent guarantor, entered into a shareholders’ agreement and a twenty-year platform license and infrastructure usage agreement for the purpose of establishing a joint venture that will deploy and operate the RedAI trade infrastructure in Saudi Arabia and Bahrain. RedCloud UK will retain a 51% interest in the joint venture and charge it up to 10% of collected net revenue.
- In India, RedCloud signed a joint venture agreement and twenty-year licensing agreement for up to $120 million with Dheer and Klakshya and signed two Memoranda of Understanding to deploy RAID (Real-time AI for Distribution) and CORE across 11 apparel brands, more than 25,000 SKUs and more than 1,250 buyer points.
- RedCloud signed a three-year agreement in Argentina, forecasting $20 million of revenue over the period and $1.2 billion of FMCG trade through RedAI.
- RedAI CORE (Compounding Operating and Runtime Engine), RedCloud’s trade execution engine, made its commercial debut, launched alongside the RedAI Sales application with 30 selected distributor customers.
Financial Results for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2026
- Revenue increased 34% in the first half of 2026, primarily reflecting an increase of 30% in total trading volume conducted through the Company’s infrastructure.
- Operating loss decreased, reflecting higher revenue, which more than offset an increase of 8% in operating expenses driven primarily by higher spending on promotional and commission-based expenditure associated with transaction activity and data acquisition.
- Net loss decreased 30%, primarily reflecting the improvement in operating loss as well as lower stock-based compensation expense.
Financing Updates
- Net cash provided by financing activities was $9.8 million during the first half of 2026.
- Subsequent to June 30, 2026, the Company has raised approximately $2.1 million from private placements with existing shareholders as well as at-the-market sales of shares.
- The principal amount outstanding under certain senior convertible notes issued in February 2026 is currently $1.8 million following contractual repayments and certain conversions at the election of the holders.
Justin Floyd, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of RedCloud, said: “The global FMCG trade pays $2 trillion a year for bad prediction. AI models are trained on public data from the internet. The data that predicts trade has never been on it. More than $8.4 billion of FMCG transactions have passed through RedCloud’s infrastructure since 2023: data that cannot be scraped, synthesized or recreated. This is the foundation of RAID, our prediction model. Our expected joint ventures are RedCloud’s first trade infrastructure deployment with local data and infrastructure controls. We plan to improve our capital structure and sources of liquidity to grow our business and add scale across more countries. Trade has never had a shared intelligence. RedCloud is building it.”
