LONDON, Jan. 14, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- RedCloud Holdings plc (NASDAQ: RCT), a frontrunner in intelligent infrastructure for global trade, has announced its preliminary financial results for the full year of 2025. The company reported a record revenue of $53.7 million, surpassing its previous guidance and demonstrating significant year-over-year growth. In response to strong performance and expanding joint ventures, RedCloud is also raising its revenue guidance for 2026 by 20% to $120 million.
Impressive Financial Performance in 2025
RedCloud's preliminary revenue of $53.7 million for 2025 reflects a 15% increase from the previous year, and exceeds the company's previously estimated range of $51–$53 million. This growth mirrors the accelerating adoption of RedCloud's innovative trading platform globally.
Notably, the company reported a total transaction value of $3.2 billion, which represents a 31% increase. For the entire year, cumulative platform trades reached $6.9 billion, providing essential data for training RedCloud's AI-driven trading algorithms.
"We beat our guidance and we’re scaling with intent,” stated Justin Floyd, Founder and CEO of RedCloud. “The $14.6 trillion FMCG industry still primarily runs on spreadsheets and phone calls. We’re making trade algorithmic,” he added, emphasizing the company's commitment to redefining trading mechanisms globally.
2026 Revenue Outlook and Strategic Plans
With the raised revenue guidance for 2026 to $120 million, RedCloud is poised for growth through existing market expansion, new joint ventures, and the launch of its RedAI trading capabilities in February 2026. Floyd commented on the anticipated developments:
"We are building the intelligent infrastructure for global trade,” emphasizing that the platform, powered by NVIDIA and AWS, processes billions of dollars in global transactions while striving to shed light on inefficiencies that cost supply chains $2 trillion annually.
