The Company’s patented technologies, software, and scenarios provide intense training for de-escalation, judgmental use-of-force, marksmanship and related training that mimics real-world situations. VirTra’s mission is to save and improve lives worldwide through practical and highly effective virtual reality and simulator technology.

Basis of Presentation
The unaudited financial statements included herein have been prepared by us without audit pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and should be read in conjunction with our audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 filed with the SEC on March 27, 2025. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted as permitted by the SEC, although we believe the disclosures that are made are adequate to make the information presented herein not misleading.
The accompanying unaudited financial statements reflect, in our opinion, all normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly our financial position on March 31, 2025, and the results of our operations and cash flows for the periods presented. We derived the December 31, 2024 balance sheet data from audited financial statements; however, we did not include all disclosures required by GAAP.
Interim results are subject to seasonal variations, and the results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2025, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. Significant accounting estimates in these financial statements include valuation assumptions for share-based payments, allowance for credit losses and notes receivable, inventory reserves, accrual for warranty reserves, the carrying value of long-lived assets and intangible assets, income tax valuation allowances, the carrying value of cost basis investments, and the allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in our contracts with customers.
Revenue Recognition
The Company adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (the “FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customer (Topic 606) (“ASC 606”) on January 1, 2018, and the Company elected to use the modified retrospective transition method which requires application of ASC 606 to uncompleted contracts at the date of adoption. The adoption of ASC 606 did not have a material impact on the financial statements.
Under ASC 606, the Company must identify the contract with a customer, identify the performance obligations in the contract, determine the transaction price, allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and recognize revenue when (or as) the Company satisfies a performance obligation. Significant judgment is necessary when making these determinations.
Restatement of year over year revenue numbers for Q1
During the audit of the 2024 financial statements, it was discovered that due to issues in the implementation of new accounting software, a revenue line was missing in 2023. This occurred when a deposit from a 2021 customer was not accurately entered into the 2021 initial launch of the new accounting system. $747,977 of revenue was recorded in the first quarter of 2024 instead of in 2023. This indicates that Q1 of 2024 was overstated by the $747,977, this adjustment was made in the audited financials of year ending 2024. This means that Q1 comparatives of 2024 to 2025 will continually show the decrease in YOY of $747,977.
The Company’s primary sources of revenue are derived from simulator and accessories sales, training and installation, the sale of customizable software, the sale of customized content scenarios, and the sale of extended service-type warranties. Sales discounts are presented in the financial statements as reductions in determining net revenues. Credit sales are recorded as current assets (accounts receivable and unbilled revenue). Prepaid deposits received at the time of sale and extended warranties purchased are recorded as current and long-term liabilities (deferred revenue) until earned. The following briefly summarizes the nature of our performance obligations and method of revenue recognition:
The Company recognizes revenue upon transfer of control or upon completion of the services for the simulator and accessories; for the installation and training and customized software performance obligations as the customer has the right and ability to direct the use of these products and services and the customer obtains substantially all of the remaining benefit from these products and services at that time. Revenue from certain customized content contracts may be recognized over the period the services are performed based on the terms of the contract. For the sales-based royalty exchanged for license of intellectual property, the Company recognized revenue as the sales occur over time.
The Company recognizes revenue on a straight-line basis over the period of services being rendered for the extended service-type warranties as these warranties represent a performance obligation to “stand ready to perform” over the duration of the warranties. As such, the warranty service is performed continuously over the warranty period.
Each contract states the transaction price. The contracts do not include variable consideration, significant financing components or noncash consideration. The Company has elected to exclude sales and similar taxes from the measurement of the transaction price. The contract’s transaction price is allocated to the performance obligations based upon their stand-alone selling prices. Discounts on the stand-alone selling prices, if any, are allocated proportionately to each performance obligation.
Disaggregation of Revenue
Under ASC 606, disaggregated revenue from contracts with customers depicts the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows affected by economic factors. The Company has evaluated revenues recognized and the following table illustrates the disaggregation disclosure by customer’s location and performance obligation.
Schedule of Disaggregation of Revenue
Commercial customers include selling through prime contractors for military or law enforcement contracts, domestically. Government customers are defined as directly selling to government agencies. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, governmental customers comprised $5,155,402, or 72% of total net sales, commercial customers comprised $66,444 or 1% of total net sales and international customers comprised $1,938,401or 27% of total net sales. By comparison, for the three months ended March 31, 2024, governmental customers comprised $6,721,480, or91% of total net sales, commercial customers comprised $75,780 or 1% of total net sales and international customers comprised $549,161, or 7% of total net sales. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, and 2024, the Company recorded $940,592 and $963,864, respectively, in STEP revenue, or 13% and 12%, respectively, of total net sales.
Segment Information
Information related to the Company’s reportable operating business segments is shown below. The Company’s reportable segments are reported in a manner consistent with the way management evaluates the businesses. The results of operations are regularly reviewed by the Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), the Chief Executive Officer. The Company identifies its reportable business segments based on differences in products and services. The accounting policies of the business segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. To evaluate each reportable segment’s performance, the CODM uses income from operations as a measure of profit and loss. The CODM compares operational performance against management expectations when making decisions regarding allocation of operating and capital resources to each segment.
The Company has identified the following business segments
Schedule of Segment
Customer Deposits
Customer deposits consist of prepaid deposits received for equipment purchase orders and for Subscription Training Equipment Partnership (“STEP”) operating agreements that expire annually. Customer deposits are considered a deferred liability until the completion of the customer’s contract performance obligation. When revenue is recognized, the deposit is applied to the customer’s receivable balance. Customer deposits are recorded as both current and long-term liabilities under deferred revenue on the accompanying balance sheet as of March 31, 2025 there was $3,853,491in current and 18,258 in long term. On December 31,2024 there was only a current liability totaling $3,755,187. Changes in deferred revenue amounts related to customer deposits will fluctuate from year to year based upon the mix of customers required to prepay deposits under the Company’s credit policy.
Warranty
The Company warranties its products from manufacturing defects on a limited basis for a period of one year after purchase but also sells separately priced extended service-type warranties for periods of up to four years after the expiration of the standard one-year warranty. During the term of the initial one-year warranty, if the device fails to operate properly from defects in materials and workmanship, the Company will fix or replace the defective product. Deferred revenue for separately priced extended warranties one year or less totaled $2,382,139 and $2,600,129 on March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. Deferred revenue for separately priced extended warranties longer than one year totaled $2,056,653 and $2,207,950 on March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. The accrual for the one-year manufacturer’s warranty liability totaled $224,000 and $212,000 on March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. During the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company recognized revenue of $970,111 and $875,005, respectively, related to the extended service-type warranties that were amortized from the deferred revenue balance at the beginning of each period. Changes in deferred revenue amounts related to extended service-type warranties will fluctuate from year to year based upon the average remaining life of the warranties at the beginning of the period and new extended service-type warranties sold during the period.
STEP Revenue
The Company’s STEP operations consist principally of leasing its simulator products under operating agreements expiring in one year. At the commencement of a STEP agreement, any lease payments received are deferred and no income is recognized. Subsequently, payments are amortized and recognized as revenue on a straight-line basis over the term of the agreement. The agreements are generally for a period of 12 months and can be renewed for an additional 12-month period up to two additional 12-month period maximum of 36-months for the entire agreement. This is a change from prior years which allowed for renewals up to 48 months for a total of 60 months. Agreements may be terminated by either party upon written notice of termination at least sixty days prior to the end of the 12-month period. The payments are generally fixed for the first year of the agreement, with increases in payments in subsequent years to be mutually agreed upon. The agreements do not include variable lease payments or free rent periods. In addition, the agreements do not provide for the underlying assets to be purchased at their fair market values at interim periods or at maturity. Each STEP agreement comes with full customer support and stand-ready advance replacement parts to maintain each system for the duration of the lease. The amount that the Company expects to derive from the STEP equipment following the end of the agreement term is dependent upon the number of agreement terms renewed. The agreements do not include a residual value guarantee. Management notes with 4-year history of providing this service and additional revenue stream, the Company has only had cancellation of a total of 8 STEP agreements before the 5-year end date of the contract this equates to less than 5% of all agreements.
Concentration of Credit Risk and Major Customers and Suppliers
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash and cash equivalents, certificates of deposit, and accounts receivable.
The Company’s cash, cash equivalents and certificates of deposit are maintained with financial institutions with high credit standings and are FDIC insured deposits. The FDIC insures deposits according to the ownership category in which the funds are insured and how the accounts are titled. The standard deposit insurance coverage limit is $250,000 per depositor, per FDIC-insured bank, per ownership category. The Company had uninsured cash and cash equivalents of $17,112,626 and $17,540,827 as of March 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024, respectively.
Sales are typically made on credit and the Company generally does not require collateral. Management performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition and maintains an allowance for estimated losses. Historically, the Company has experienced minimal charges relative to doubtful accounts.
Historically, the Company primarily sells its products to U.S. federal and state agencies.
As of March 31, 2025, the Company had 3 customers that accounted for 11%, 13%, and 25% respectively, of total accounts receivable. As of December 31, 2024, the Company had two customers that accounted for 28% and 13% of total accounts receivable.
For the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company had one customer accounting for 14% of the total revenue and another accounting for 10%
Net Income per Common Share

Note 5. Leases
From 2016 through March 2019, the Company leased approximately 4,529 rentable square feet of office and industrial space from an unaffiliated third party for our machine shop at 2169 East 5th St., Tempe, Arizona 85284. In April 2019, the Company relocated the machine shop from the 5th St. location to 7910 South Kyrene Road, located within the same business complex as its main office. The Company executed a lease amendment to add an additional 5,131 rentable square feet for the machine shop and extended its existing office lease through April 30, 2024. On June 1, 2022, we entered into a new lease of approximately 9,350 square feet located at 12301 Challenger Parkway, Orlando, Florida, from an unaffiliate third party through May 2027.
The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any residual value guarantees, restrictive covenants, or variable lease payments. The Company has not entered into any financing leases.
In addition to base rent, the Company’s lease generally provides for additional payments for other charges, such as rental tax. The lease includes fixed rent escalations. The Company’s lease does not include an option to renew.
The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating leases are recorded in operating lease right of use assets, net, operating lease liability – short-term, and operating lease liability – long-term on its balance sheets.
Operating lease assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent its obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease assets and liabilities are recognized at the commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As the Company’s lease does not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The incremental borrowing rate used at adoption was 4.5%. Significant judgment is required when determining the Company’s incremental borrowing rate. The Company uses the implicit rate when readily determinable. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Effective June 1, 2022, the Company obtained a right-of-use asset in exchange for a new operating lease liability in the amount of $840,855. Effective January 1, 2019, the Company obtained a right-of-use asset in exchange for a new operating lease liability in the amount of $1,721,380and derecognized $46,523 deferred rent for an adjusted operating lease right-of-use asset in the net amount of $1,674,857.

Product Offerings
Our simulator products include the following:
Results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2025, and March 31, 2024
Revenues.Net sales were $7,160,247 for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to the restated $7,346,421 for the same period in 2024, a decrease of $186,174 or 3%. The decrease in revenue is due to a number of customers from our 4th quarter bookings that were not able to accept delivery in the first quarter. A large portion of the 2024 backlog will convert to revenue throughout the 2025 year.
Cost of Sales. Cost of sales was $1,963,367 for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to $2,632,257 for the same period in 2024, a decrease of $668,890, or 25%. This decrease in cost of sales reflected our ability to streamline our operations to help increase our margin.
Gross Profit. Gross profit was $5,196,880 for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to $4,714,164 for the same period in 2024, an increase of $482,716, or 10%. The gross profit margin for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 was 73% and 64%, respectively. This increase in margin is solely driven by the decrease in cost of sales as stated above.
Operating Expenses. Net operating expense was $3,829,077 for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to $4,063,802 for the same period in 2024, a decrease of $234,725, or 6%. This decrease is occurring because of our drive to maintain or lower our overhead costs this year as we navigate the challenges that will come with the government pauses in contracts.
Operating Income. Operating income was $1,367,803 for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to operating income of $650,362 for the same period in 2024, an increase of 717,441 or 110%. This year over year increase is attributed to our savings in cost of goods and operating expenses while maintaining close revenues results.
Other Income. Other expense net of other income was $1,743 for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to net other income of $329,271 for the same period in 2024, a decrease of $331,014, or 101%, primarily because we no longer have a sublessee paying rental income in 2025.
Provision (Benefit) for Income Tax. Provision for income tax was $102,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to $511,437 for the same period in 2024, a decrease of $409,437, or 80%. Provision for income tax is estimated quarterly applying both federal and state tax rates.
Net Income. Net income was $1,264,060 for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to a restated net income of $468,196 for the same period in 2024, an increase of $795,864 or 170%. The fluctuation in net income relates to each respective section discussed above.
Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization. Explanation and Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures:
Earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation, and amortization and before other non-operating costs and income (“EBITDA”) and adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP measures. Adjusted EBITDA also includes non-cash stock option expense. Other companies may calculate adjusted EBITDA differently. The Company calculates its adjusted EBITDA to eliminate the impact of certain items it does not consider to be indicative of its performance and its ongoing operations. Adjusted EBITDA is presented herein because management believes the presentation of adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to the Company’s investors regarding the Company’s financial condition and results of operations and because adjusted EBITDA is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in the Company’s industry, several of which present EBITDA and a form of adjusted EBITDA when reporting their results. Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Company’s results as reported under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative for net income (loss), cash flows from operating activities and other income or cash flow statement data prepared in accordance with GAAP or as a measure of profitability or liquidity. A reconciliation of net loss to adjusted EBITDA is provided in the following table:
Liquidity and Capital Resources. Liquidity is the ability of an enterprise to generate adequate amounts of cash to meet its needs for cash requirements. The Company had $17,612,626 and $18,040,827 of cash and cash equivalents as of March 31 2025, and December 31, 2024, respectively. Working capital was $35,257,860 and $34,826,680 as of March 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024, respectively.
Net cash provided by operating activities was $65,691 and $5,136,509 for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Net cash provided by operating activities resulted primarily from an increase in accounts receivable and inventory, offset by decreased unbilled revenue and increased accounts payable.
Net cash used in investing activities was $428,371 for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to net cash used in investing activities of $1,546,772 for the three months ended March 31, 2024. Investing activities in 2025 and 2024 consisted of purchases of property and equipment,
Net cash used in financing activities was $65,521 for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to $24,402 used in the three months ended March 31, 2024. In both periods, cash was used primarily for principal payment of debt. In 2024, this was also offset by the proceeds from the issuance of stock options which we no longer have.
Bookings and Backlog
The Company defines bookings as the total of newly signed contracts, awarded RFP’s and purchase orders received in a defined time period. The Company received bookings totaling $6.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The Company has made one change to the booking qualifications in 4th Q 2024. We have strengthened the language in the STEP contract Terms and Conditions to guarantee the agreement for the full three-year term. This change secures future revenue and lowers our risk of unsigned or cancelled contracts. Since the change was only made in Q4 of 2024, we still estimate that there are $5 million in renewable STEP contract options still outstanding. Based on current renewal rates, the Company believes 95% of those options will be exercised.
The Company defines backlog as the accumulation of bookings from signed contracts and purchase orders that are not started, or have uncompleted performance objectives, and cannot be recognized as revenue until delivered in a future quarter. The Company splits the backlog into three categories. The first is capital which includes sales of all the simulators, corresponding accessories, installs, training custom content and custom design work. The second and third are extended warranty agreements and STEP agreements that are deferred revenue recognized on a straight-line basis over the life of each respective agreement. As of March 31, 2025, the Company’s backlog was $21.2 million, consisting of $9.9 million in Capital, $5.8 million in Service and $5.5 million in STEP.
Management estimates that most new capital bookings received in the first quarter of 2025 will be converted to revenue in 2025. Management recognizes that there are a percentage of capital contracts that will extend into 2026 by request of the customers. Management’s estimate for the conversion of backlog is based on current contract delivery dates; however, contract terms and install dates are subject to modification and are routinely changed at the request of the customer or due to factors outside the Company’s control.
With a new federal administration in place at the beginning of 2025, it is unknown what impact that will have on our bookings for the remainder of 2025. Budget cuts have been discussed and we have seen some grants and other federal funding frozen for most of the first quarter, but nothing definitive has occurred as of the date of this report.
Cash Requirements
Our management believes that our current capital resources will be adequate to continue operating our Company and maintaining our current business strategy for more than 12 months from the filing of this Quarterly Report. We are, however, open to raising additional funds from the capital markets, at a fair valuation, to purchase a business or assets, expand our production capacity, expand our product and services, to enhance our sales and marketing efforts and effectiveness, and to aggressively take advantage of market opportunities. There can be no assurance, however, that additional financing will be available to us when needed or, if available, that it can be obtained on commercially reasonable terms. If we are not able to obtain the additional financing on a timely basis, when it is needed, we will be forced to scale down our plans for expanded marketing and sales efforts.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on our unaudited financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of our unaudited financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to areas that require a significant level of judgment or are otherwise subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty. Significant accounting estimates in these financial statements include valuation assumptions for share-based payments, allowance for doubtful accounts and notes receivable, inventory reserves, accrual for warranty reserves, the carrying value of long-lived assets, income tax valuation allowances, the carrying value of cost basis investments, and the allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in our contracts with customers. We base our estimates on historical experience, our observance of trends in particular areas, and information or valuations and various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances and which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that may not be readily apparent from other sources. Actual amounts could differ significantly from amounts previously estimated. For a discussion of our critical accounting policies, refer to Part I, Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024. Management believes that there have been no changes in our critical accounting policies during the three months ended March 31, 2025.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
See Note 1 to our financial statements, included in Part I, Item 1., Financial Information of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of March 31, 2025, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors. The term “off-balance sheet arrangement” generally means any transaction, agreement or other contractual arrangement to which an entity unconsolidated with us is a party, under which we have any obligation arising under a guaranteed contract, derivative instrument or variable interest or a retained or contingent interest in assets transferred to such entity or similar arrangement that serves as credit, liquidity or market risk support for such assets.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures
We maintain “disclosure controls and procedures,” as that term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e), promulgated by the SEC pursuant to the Exchange Act. Disclosure controls and procedures include controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our company’s reports filed under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officers and principal financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our management, with the participation of our principal executive officers and principal financial officer, evaluated our company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officers and principal financial officer concluded that as of March 31, 2025, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective. The ineffectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures was due to material weaknesses, which we identified in our report on internal control over financial reporting contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, filed with the SEC on March 27, 2025 These weaknesses were (i) lack of multiple levels of management review on complex business, accounting, and financial reporting issues and (ii) failure to implement adequate system and manual controls. As noted in 10-K, until such time as we expand our staff to include additional accounting and executive personnel and accounting systems and procedures, it is likely the first material weakness will continue. With respect to the second material weakness, our Board of Directors has directed management to implement more effective system and manual controls.
Change in internal control over financial reporting
There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarterly period ended March 31, 2025, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. However, during the quarter ended March 31, 2025, and continuing through 2025, we are implementing more formal review and documentation of workflow processes and increased our ERP training for our staff. We believe that a control system, no matter how well designed and operated, cannot provide absolute assurance that the objectives of the control system are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within any company have been detected.
