AI Insight: IZEA Financial Trends
Revenue collapsed 56% from Q2 2024 to Q1 2026; company has stabilized losses but remains unprofitable and cash-flow negative.
• Revenue halved from $16M (Q2 2024) to $6M (Q4 2025), recovering only slightly to $7M in Q1 2026.
• Operating losses narrowed from $7M (Q2 2024) to near break-even in Q2–Q3 2025, though Q4 2025 and Q1 2026 deteriorated again.
• Equity eroded 21% from $61M to $48M over the period; zero debt maintained throughout.
⚠ Operating cash flow turned negative $4M in Q1 2026 after two consecutive profitable quarters; burn resuming.

AI Insight: IZEA Ratio Trends
IZEA swung to profitability in Q2 2025 but has deteriorated sequentially every quarter since, with all major metrics now negative in Q1 2026.
• Operating margin improved from -43.3% in Q2 2024 to -8.0% TTM, but Q1 2026 shows -17.8% OpMargin — worst quarterly result in five quarters.
• Q2 2025 marked only profitable quarter: 8.1% OpMargin, 13.2% NPM. All subsequent quarters negative; Q4 2025 and Q1 2026 show material deterioration.
• ROIC collapsed from 6.0% in Q2 2025 to -4.9% TTM, with Q1 2026 at -9.7% — steepest decline in the data set.
⚠ Q4 2025 and Q1 2026 represent sharp sequential deterioration after Q3 2025 stabilization — suggests underlying business headwind, not seasonal noise.
⚠ No leverage employed (D/E = 0.00 throughout) limits financial resilience if cash burn persists in negative-margin quarters.
