Mitek Systems Inc (MITK) Q2 2025 Earnings Call Highlights: Record Revenue and Strategic SaaS Growth
Release Date: May 08, 2025 For the complete transcript of the earnings call, please refer to the full earnings call transcript. Mitek Systems Inc (NASDAQ:MITK) reported a record total revenue of $51.9 million for the second quarter, marking an 11% year-over-year increase. The company's identity portfolio showed strong momentum, with revenue reaching over $71 million in the last 12 months, driven by robust transaction growth. Check fraud defender solution expanded significantly, now covering data sets on 23% of US checking accounts, up from 18% in the previous quarter. SaaS revenue grew by 15% year over year, now accounting for 40% of the total revenue, indicating a successful transition towards a more recurring revenue model. Mitek Systems Inc (NASDAQ:MITK) achieved an 88% non-GAAP gross margin for the quarter, reflecting strong unit economics and improved cost efficiencies. The company faces long and complex sales cycles in the banking sector, which can delay revenue recognition and growth. Despite the positive revenue growth, the identity products revenue only increased by 4% year over year, which is relatively modest compared to other segments. There is a reliance on a few large customers for mobile deposit orders, which can lead to revenue fluctuations based on the timing of these orders. The macroeconomic environment remains uncertain, which could potentially impact future performance despite current resilience. The transition to a SaaS model, while progressing, is still not complete, with SaaS revenue yet to surpass 50% of total revenue. Warning! GuruFocus has detected 3 Warning Sign with MITK. Q: Can you talk about some things that have gone well thus far and maybe a few things that have been a bit more difficult for you, and what you're seeing from customers? A: Ed West, CEO: The company has made significant progress, particularly in fraud and identity solutions, aligning with customer needs. The trust built over decades with financial institutions and the technological capabilities in identity and biometrics are key strengths. While the macro environment remains stable, the company is cautious and focused on executing its strategy. Q: On the maintained top line guide, were there any pull forwards that helped drive the strength in the quarter? A: Dave Lyle, CFO: Yes, a large mobile deposit customer ordered earlier than expected in Q2, contributing to the overachievement. Another customer also ordered more than anticipated, which was positive for the quarter's results. Q: How are you progressing toward the target of reaching 20 million AC by the end of the year? A: Ed West, CEO: The company has increased data set coverage to 23% of US checking accounts, indicating strong progress. While the process takes time, the direction is positive, and the company is focused on accelerating cycles to recognize revenue sooner. Q: Can you quantify how much quicker the modernized document onboarding system is with automation and cycle times? A: Ed West, CEO: The system significantly accelerates the process by reducing manual intervention, although exact data is not yet available. The improvements are meaningful and align with efforts to enhance profitability and scalability. Q: How do you see the SaaS revenue mix trending in the years to come, and where do you expect it to normalize? A: Ed West, CEO: The goal is for SaaS revenue to represent a majority of the business by fiscal 2026. Growth is driven by fraud and identity SaaS products, which are moving from nascent stages to significant growth, contributing to a more durable revenue model.
