MicroSalt Plc makes a low-sodium salt with tiny crystals and sells it to food manufacturers and restaurant chains, mainly in North America. In the year to 31 December 2025, revenue rose to $2.1m from $750k (+175.9%), and the loss after tax narrowed to $3.5m from $6.1m.

The report credits large, repeat bulk orders from food manufacturers for the growth, with three customers making up 76% of revenue. New products launched in 2025 also helped. Its products now sell for more than they cost to make: gross profit was $87k, against a loss of $438k the year before.

The company ended the year with $1.9m in cash, up from $261k, helped by $5.7m raised from shareholders. It owes $2.9m in loans from its controlling shareholder, Tekcapital, due in 2027. No dividend was paid. Management updated its 2026 sales guidance to US$4.5 million, citing production timing rather than demand, and kept its 2027 estimate of US$15 million. The directors and auditor flag a material uncertainty over whether the company can keep going, because its cash depends on the timing of customer sales.
