Creative Realities, Inc. (CREX) - Ansoff Matrix: Market Penetration

You're looking at deepening the relationship with the current customer base, which makes sense given the recent revenue fluctuations. For instance, in the third quarter of fiscal 2025, Creative Realities, Inc. reported revenue of $10.5 million, which followed a Q2 2025 revenue of $13.0 million. That kind of swing shows why locking in predictable income is key right now.

The focus here is on increasing sales team focus on upselling existing clients to full-service managed solutions. This is critical because managed services revenue, which includes the Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) subscription component, declined by $0.4 million year-over-year in Q3 2025. Furthermore, Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR) dropped from approximately $18.1 million at the end of Q2 2025 to approximately $12.3 million at the end of Q3 2025. You need to reverse that trend fast.

To address this, you are offering a 15% discount on multi-year service contracts to lock in current revenue streams. This directly targets the stability of that recurring revenue base. Think about the hardware revenue volatility; Q2 2025 saw hardware revenue at $7.1 million, but that fell to $4.2 million in Q3 2025, largely due to deployment timing. Securing longer service agreements insulates the company from these lumpy hardware cycles.

Next, you are launching a targeted QSR (Quick-Service Restaurant) campaign to convert competitors' legacy digital menu boards. The QSR vertical was a driver for hardware purchases in Q2 2025, but the overall service revenue was $6.4 million in Q3 2025. This campaign aims to capture market share in an existing vertical where you already have some footprint, converting installed base technology to Creative Realities, Inc.'s managed solutions.

To fuel this push for existing customer expansion and new QSR conversions, you plan to boost marketing spend by $500,000 to drive higher lead volume in core retail and corporate segments. For context, Sales and marketing expenses were $1.2 million in Q2 2025. Adding $500,000 represents a significant increase to drive penetration in those established markets.

Here's a quick look at the recent quarterly financial snapshot to frame this penetration strategy:

Metric	Q2 Fiscal 2025	Q3 Fiscal 2025
Revenue	$13.0 million	$10.5 million
Gross Profit	$5.0 million	$4.8 million
Gross Margin	38.5%	45.3%
Sales & Marketing Expense	$1.2 million	Data not explicitly stated for Q3
Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR)	Approx. $18.1 million	Approx. $12.3 million

The success of this market penetration hinges on converting current service users to longer-term, higher-value managed contracts. You're betting that the 15% incentive is enough to overcome the recent ARR contraction. The QSR campaign specifically targets a segment that showed high hardware purchase activity recently.

The immediate actions required for execution are:

• Sales: Finalize the tiered pricing structure incorporating the 15% multi-year discount by October 15.
• Marketing: Allocate the additional $500,000 spend across digital channels targeting retail and corporate accounts in Q4 2025.
• Sales Enablement: Develop training modules focused on upselling existing clients to full-service managed solutions.
• Business Development: Finalize the creative assets for the targeted QSR conversion campaign.

Creative Realities, Inc. (CREX) - Ansoff Matrix: Market Development

Creative Realities, Inc. (CREX) reported trailing twelve months (TTM) revenue of $44.32M as of September 30, 2025, reflecting a year-over-year decrease of -18.37%. The third quarter of fiscal 2025 saw revenue at $10.5M, compared to $14.4M in the prior-year period, resulting in a net loss of $7.8M. This context frames the necessity of Market Development strategies to accelerate growth beyond the current base, which had 146 employees as of the last reported data.

Targeting the healthcare sector-hospitals and clinics-for patient-facing interactive displays represents a focused Market Development move into a new vertical for Creative Realities, Inc. (CREX). While specific revenue contribution from this sector for fiscal 2025 isn't itemized, the company's overall strategy involves expanding its digital signage and AdTech solutions into new end-markets. The healthcare space demands high reliability and specific compliance, which, if met, could secure long-term service contracts, bolstering the Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR), which stood at approximately $12.3M at the end of Q3 2025.

Entering the European market, specifically the UK and Germany, by leveraging existing partner networks is a classic Market Development play. This strategy aims to introduce current, proven digital signage platforms to new geographic territories. The company's existing expertise in managing large networks, such as the 75,000 displays installed at Best Buy or the 3,800 displays at the Dallas Cowboys' AT&T stadium, provides a template for scaling in new regions. Success here would diversify the revenue base away from its current North American concentration.

Adapting current digital signage platforms for use in smart city infrastructure projects involves applying existing technology to a new, large-scale public sector market. Creative Realities, Inc. (CREX) has developed platforms like the AdLogic and Adlogic CPM+ for digital advertising monetization. The potential scale in smart city deployments is significant, contrasting with the current installed base of 400,000 active digital signage SaaS licenses.

The acquisition of Cineplex Digital Media (CDM) serves as a concrete, recent example of expanding market footprint and capability, though it was a North American expansion. This transaction, closed after Q3 2025, was for CAD $70M (approximately USD $42.7M or USD $50M). CDM posted sales of just under CAD $56M in 2024 and was on track for 25% growth in 2025, with over 60% of its revenue being recurring. This acquisition is expected to yield annualized synergies of at least $10M by the end of 2026. The combined entity projects total company revenue to exceed $100M in 2026, with Adjusted EBITDA margins potentially exceeding 20% once all synergies are realized.

The financial metrics related to this major market/footprint expansion are detailed below:

Metric	Creative Realities, Inc. (CREX) Q3 2025	Cineplex Digital Media (CDM) 2024 (Pre-Acquisition)	Combined Pro-Forma 2026 Projection
Revenue (TTM/Annual)	$44.32M (TTM Sep 30, 2025)	Just under CAD $56M	Exceed $100M
Acquisition Cost (USD)	N/A	Approx. $42.7M to $50M	N/A
Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR)	Approx. $12.3M (Q3 2025 End)	Over 60% of revenue recurring	N/A
Projected Annual Synergies (by end of 2026)	N/A	N/A	At least $10M
Adjusted EBITDA Margin Projection	$0.8M (Q3 2025)	N/A	Exceed 20% (with synergies)

The company's focus on recurring revenue, evidenced by the $12.3M ARR at the close of Q3 2025, is a key metric for valuing these market development efforts.

The Market Development strategy relies on successfully integrating new customer bases, such as the CDM client base which is approximately 84% based in Canada.

• Target healthcare sector for patient-facing interactive displays.
• Initiate European market entry in UK and Germany leveraging partner networks.
• Adapt AdLogic and Adlogic CPM+ platforms for smart city infrastructure.
• Acquired Cineplex Digital Media for CAD $70M to expand North American footprint.

Creative Realities, Inc. (CREX) - Ansoff Matrix: Product Development

You're looking at how Creative Realities, Inc. (CREX) is pushing new offerings into its existing market space. This is the Product Development quadrant of the Ansoff Matrix, and it's where the company bets on innovation to drive future revenue streams, even as current financials show some headwinds.

Consider the proprietary AI-driven content optimization engine, which Creative Realities, Inc. refers to as part of its Data-Driven Design methodology, partnered with SCORESM technology. While the most recent specific performance metrics are from prior testing, they show the potential you are aiming for. That prior data indicated that the data-driven design influenced an average check lift of 5.7%, which translated to an annualized sales lift of over $240,000 at those test sites. Another finding showed an annualized per store average sales lift of $24,000. The company has also deployed the AdLogic and Adlogic CPM+ platforms, which are integrated digital advertising solutions designed to help customers monetize their in-store retail media networks.

For the low-cost, subscription-only SaaS (Software as a Service) version of the Content Management System (CMS), the trend in fiscal 2025 has been challenging, reflecting a mix shift. The Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR) stood at approximately $12.3 million at the end of the third quarter ended September 30, 2025, a notable drop from $18.1 million at the end of the second quarter ended June 30, 2025. The gross margin on service revenue was 55.3% for the third quarter of 2025, down from 57.9% in the third quarter of fiscal 2024, with the company attributing this, in part, to a reduction in SaaS subscription services. The total revenue for that third quarter was $10.5 million.

When launching a new line of ruggedized outdoor displays for existing stadium and transit clients, you look at the hardware component performance. The gross margin on hardware revenue for the third quarter of fiscal 2025 was 30.0%, which is an improvement compared to 24.1% in the prior-year period, suggesting a better product mix within that segment. Creative Realities, Inc. has experience in this area; for instance, the largest single-site installation involved 3,800 displays at the Dallas Cowboys' AT&T football stadium.

Integrating advanced sensor technology for real-time audience measurement and personalization falls under the broader umbrella of enhancing digital experiences, which is reflected in the company's overall financial structure. The company's total revenue for the trailing twelve months ending September 30, 2025, was $44.32 million. Following the close of the Cineplex Digital Media acquisition on November 7, 2025, the post-transaction debt rose to approximately $39.9 million, funded in part by the USD $42.7 million cash component of the deal.

Here's a quick look at the relevant financial context for the period where these product developments are being measured:

Metric	Q3 Fiscal 2025 Value	Comparison Period Value
Revenue	$10.5 million	$14.4 million (Q3 Fiscal 2024)
Gross Profit	$4.8 million	$6.6 million (Q3 Fiscal 2024)
Net Loss	$7.8 million	Net Income of $0.1 million (Q3 Fiscal 2024)
Adjusted EBITDA	$0.8 million	$2.3 million (Q3 Fiscal 2024)
ARR (End of Period)	$12.3 million	$18.1 million (Sep 30, 2024)

The company's focus on its software platforms, including ClarityTM, ReflectViewTM, and iShowroomTM CMS platforms, is central to its recurring revenue strategy.

Creative Realities, Inc. (CREX) - Ansoff Matrix: Diversification

You're looking at how Creative Realities, Inc. (CREX) can move beyond its current digital signage and AdTech core, especially after the recent CAD 70 million acquisition of Cineplex Digital Media (CDM). That acquisition alone more than doubled the company's operational scale, with management projecting total company revenue to exceed $100 million in 2026. Still, diversification means planting seeds in entirely new fields, which is what we map out here.

For context, Creative Realities, Inc. (CREX) reported Q3 2025 revenue of $10.5 million, against a net loss of $(7.8) million, heavily impacted by a $5.7 million non-cash software impairment charge. The Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR) stood at approximately $12.3 million at the end of Q3 2025.

• Virtual Reality (VR) leads with a 40% share, valued at approximately US$7.3 billion in 2025.
• Technical Training grows 5-7 percentage points above the overall market CAGR.

Acquisition for New Market Entry: IoT Platform

Acquiring a small Internet of Things (IoT) sensor company to build a smart building management platform enters a sector showing strong, consistent expansion. The global Smart Building IoT (SBIoT) market size was $96.54 billion in 2025, with projections to hit $194.84 billion by 2032 at a 10.55% CAGR.

This move targets the need for centralized monitoring and operational optimization. The commercial segment is substantial, holding 45.12% of the market share in 2024, valued at USD 33.10 billion.

Metric	Value (2025 Estimate/2024 Actual)	Source Year
Global SBIoT Market Size	$96.54 billion	2025
Projected 2032 Market Size	$194.84 billion	2032
Projected CAGR (2025-2032)	10.55%	2025
North America Market Share (2024)	37.43%	2024
Commercial Segment Share (2024)	45.12%	2024

New Market Entry: Residential Smart Home

Entering the residential market with a premium, integrated smart home display and control system taps into the consumer side of building technology. While the commercial segment dominates, the residential side is a significant piece of the overall smart building pie. The global smart building market was valued at USD 103 billion in 2024.

The residential segment is expected to account for 27.2% of the global smart buildings market in 2024. This is driven by increasing consumer focus on comfort and safety, with dynamic ecosystems leveraging IoT and AI becoming standard features.

• Residential Segment Share (2024): 27.2%.
• Overall Smart Building Market CAGR (2024-2034): 24.4%.
• UK Smart Building Market CAGR (Forecast): 22.2%.

New Product/Service: Data Monetization

Launching a data monetization service, selling anonymized retail foot traffic and engagement data, leverages the company's existing proximity to retail environments, especially post-CDM integration. The retail data monetization platform market is set for substantial growth.

The market was valued at USD 4.8 billion in 2024 and is projected to reach USD 20.3 billion by 2033, showing a CAGR of 19.2% from 2025 to 2033. Retailers are demanding accountability for in-store advertising, meaning proven performance data is critical.

In July 2025, U.S. retail sales were up 4.3% year-over-year, proving that in-person shopping remains active, though Target traffic fell 3.8% in July 2025. This volatility underscores the need for real-time, actionable insights that anonymized data sales can provide to third parties.

The post-acquisition goal is to see combined ARR and ad revenue exceed USD 40 million entering 2026. Finance: draft the 13-week cash view by Friday.
