KIRA Β· Mind Technology, Inc had $40.9M of revenue in fiscal 2026, down 12.6% on the year before. Over five years, revenue changed +14.1% a year on average. Its operating margin was 7.0%, down 7.6Β pts: of every 100 in sales, about 7 is left after running the business.

How much cash comes in, and where does it go?
KIRA Β· Free cash flow was $1.9M in fiscal 2026, 4.7% of revenue.

KIRA Β· No open-market insider trades in the last 12 months.
Open-market purchases and sales by officers, directors and 10% owners, from Form 4 filings. βPlanβ marks trades under a pre-arranged Rule 10b5-1 plan.
