Nextech3D.AI posts strong margin gains, 20% QoQ growth as Eventdex acquisition accelerates AI tech

Episode Summary

Nextech3D.AI CEO Evan Gappelberg joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss a pivotal quarter for the company, highlighted by strong financial performance, expanding profit margins, and the successful integration of its latest acquisition, Eventdex. For the quarter ended September 30, 2025, Nextech3D.AI reported 20% sequential revenue growth and an impressive gross margin of 88%, marking a substantial 17-point improvement from 71% in the previous period. The company also saw deferred revenue surge by 186% year-over-year, climbing from $203,000 to $521,000, reflecting growing customer commitments and long-term contract value within its AI and event technology ecosystem. Gappelberg highlighted that the acquisition of Eventdex, which closed during the third quarter, represents a major catalyst in Nextech3D.AI’s evolution. Eventdex, a well-established provider of event management software, generated approximately $700,000 in revenue in 2024 and brings with it a strong customer base, complementary SaaS offerings, and a recurring revenue model. Together with Nextech’s Map D platform, the combined companies now serve more than 550 clients, offering a fully integrated suite of event technology solutions — including registration, ticketing, mobile apps, floor mapping, AI matchmaking, and blockchain ticketing. While total revenue declined 48% year-over-year to $390,755 from $756,476 in 2024, Gappelberg emphasized that this was a strategic and expected transition following the completion of Nextech’s Amazon 3D modeling contract in late 2024. The conclusion of that contract allowed the company to pivot toward its higher-margin AI-powered and event-technology businesses, which are now driving sustainable revenue and profitability growth. Looking ahead, Nextech3D.AI plans to continue leveraging AI innovation across its ecosystem to enhance user experiences, drive operational efficiency, and expand cross-selling opportunities between its integrated platforms, positioning the company as a leader at the intersection of AI, 3D modeling, and event technology. #nextech3d.al #otcqx #nexcf #cse #ntar #EvanGappelberg #ARway #AugmentedReality #SpatialMapping #IndoorNavigation #MapDynamics #EventTech #TradeShowSolutions #TechStocks #ARRevenueGrowth #3DTechnology #ProactiveInvestors #aws #amazonwebservice #tickets
