Executive Summary

DTI reported Q1 2026 revenue of $38.0M, down 11.5% YoY from $42.9M, and a GAAP net loss of $1.5M (-$0.04/share), compared to a $1.7M loss (-$0.05/share) in Q1 2025. Adjusted EBITDA fell 30% YoY to $7.5M from $10.8M, and operating cash flow turned negative at -$3.2M. The company reaffirmed its full-year 2026 guidance of $155M-$170M revenue and $35M-$45M Adjusted EBITDA, which implies mid-point growth vs 2025, but the Q1 results show continued revenue contraction and cash burn.

Actionable Insight

The Q1 miss on revenue and cash flow, combined with reaffirmed guidance, suggests H2-weighted expectations. Monitor Q2 results for signs of the promised Canadian spring breakup rebound and international growth. The increased public float from the PE distribution could improve liquidity but also add near-term selling pressure.

  • GAAP net loss of $1.5M (-$0.04/share) vs $1.7M loss (-$0.05/share) in Q1 2025

  • Operating cash flow negative at -$3.2M vs +$2.4M in Q1 2025
  • Adjusted Free Cash Flow -$0.2M vs +$5.7M in Q1 2025
  • Net debt increased to $48.9M from $42.2M at year-end 2025
