Cash $4,174. Realized after I posted Friday that cash was $3,000 too high. As stupid is as stupid does, I sent a picture of check to Schwab to my taxable account for 3k to then move to my grandsons' accounts.  Oh no I didn't. Put my IRA account number on the check and that's where it went. After talking to Schwab,  they claimed I should cancel the check, as otherwise there would be IRS paperwork to do. $40 to my bank, and a $25 fee from Schwab. Not the end of the world, just a PIA.

  Some context: Annual earnings have gone from -.55 / -.38 / -.18 / possible profit this year.
  Debt was 6.7M. They paid off 3.7M last quarter. Recent warrant conversion which coincided with this sell off, brought in 4.5M, so I expect they will be debt free end of this quarter.
  From 8/5 letter to shareholders: "With this paydown, our total long-term debt is now less than $3 million, a  remarkable change from where we were just one year ago. This move is another testimony to  Castellum’s   focus, strategy, and performance," states  David Bell, Chief Financial Officer of Castellum.
    Castellum, Inc., Castellum, Inc. Reports Record Quarterly Revenue, Improving Profitability, and Additional Debt Reduction with Q2 2025 Results
  Revenue for Q2 2025 totaled $14.0 million, a record quarter reflecting a 19.7% increase from $11.7 million in Q1 2025 and a 21.7% increase from $11.5 million in Q2 2024. These results reflect the second consecutive quarter of year-over-year organic revenue growth, the only two times the Company has achieved that milestone since the Company’s 2022 uplisting. 
  The Company reduced total debt by $3.7 million during the quarter, a key step in strengthening its balance sheet and enhancing financial flexibility. This strategic deleveraging effort reflects management’s ongoing focus on capital discipline and long-term shareholder value. 
  Operating loss for the quarter narrowed significantly to $(0.4) million, compared to $(1.1) million in Q1 2025 and $(6.0) million in Q2 2024. The improvement reflects continued cost discipline and increasing operating leverage, even with non-cash and one-time charges included in results. Additionally, excluding non-cash and one-time items, Castellum generated $0.5 million of adjusted EBITDA. 
  Castellum ended the quarter with a record cash balance of $14.7 million, up from $13.3 million at the end of Q1, further reinforcing its commitment to liquidity and prudent capital management. 
  “In addition to record revenue and solid margin improvement, we reduced our debt by $3.7 million this quarter - a major achievement in strengthening our financial foundation,” said Glen Ives, Chief Executive Officer of Castellum. “Our continued strong performance and steady progress are a direct reflection of our world-class CTM team and their 'best in industry' skills, talent, knowledge, and experience directly supporting our mission customers to achieve their vital national security missions and objectives. We’re building meaningful momentum, and we believe these results position us well to continue creating long-term value for our shareholders.” |
