Investment thesis
What must happen next
Intrusion’s threat-intelligence offering remains differentiated enough that security buyers add it instead of relying only on broad security suites.HoldingMateriality: High
GAAP annual revenue was $7.015 million in FY2025, up from $5.771 million in FY2024. If this holds, revenue growth can become evidence of product-market fit; if it breaks, the company is a small vendor in a crowded market with little scale advantage.
Watch: Palo Alto Networks, CrowdStrike, Cisco, Fortinet or cloud security platforms bundle comparable prevention and threat-intelligence features into broader contracts.

Open source ↗The product mix retains enough software and data economics to preserve high gross profitability as sales scale.StrengtheningMateriality: High
GAAP annual gross_profit was $5.380 million in FY2025 on $7.015 million of revenue, an implied gross margin of about 76.7%. High gross profit is what gives a small cybersecurity vendor a path to operating leverage; margin erosion would mean growth is being bought rather than earned.
Watch: Winning customers requires heavy discounting, reseller concessions or subsidized pilots.

GAAP annual operating_income improved from a loss of $16.283 million in FY2022 to a loss of $9.164 million in FY2025. The equity only compounds if incremental gross profit eventually covers sales, engineering and public-company costs; otherwise revenue growth still leaves owners funding losses.
Watch: Enterprise sales cycles require materially larger direct sales, support or compliance spending before revenue scales.

Watch: Large prospects delay purchases or require long unpaid proof-of-concept periods.
