Wearable Devices Announces First Half 2025 Financial Results
During this period, the Company started generating revenues from commercial sales of its Mudra Link, a universal gesture control wristband
YOKNE’AM ILLIT, Israel, Sept. 09, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Wearable Devices Ltd. (the “Company” or “Wearable Devices”) (Nasdaq: WLDS, WLDSW), a technology growth company specializing in artificial intelligence (“AI”)-powered touchless sensing wearables, today announced its financial results for the six months ended June 30, 2025, marking its commercial debut with the innovative Mudra Link wristband.
Management Commentary:
“We are excited to kick off 2025 with strong revenue momentum from the Mudra Link and Mudra Band, alongside a significantly reduced net loss compared to last year,” said Asher Dahan, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Wearable Devices. “This reflects our foothold in the global wearable tech market, a dynamic sector, as demand for intuitive, touchless interfaces skyrockets. In the first half of 2025, we started the delivery of Mudra Link, a universal gesture control wearable wristband, in addition to continued recognition of revenue from the sale of Mudra Band for Apple Watch, the Company’s B2C products. After a preorder period during which the Mudra Link generated strong customer interest, we began shipping the product at the beginning of 2025 and are pleased to have reached this important milestone.”
Mr. Dahan added: “We continue to invest in our business, as reflected in the modest increases in research and development, sales and marketing, and general and administrative expenses in the period. We’re still in the early stages of growth in the broader wearables industry, and we believe that Wearable Devices is well-positioned to be a leader in the space given our patented AI-based neural input interface technology.
Wearable Devices is riding the wave of a wearable tech revolution, with applications spanning consumer gadgets, military interfaces, and health analytics. The Company is cementing its role as a key player, leveraging AI innovation to meet this surging demand and deliver shareholder value.
The Japan collaboration taps into a tech-savvy market, while the LMM’s potential in cognitive state monitoring positions the Company to penetrate the health wearable market by 2026. Strategic B2B deals, like the military project, could unlock multi-million-dollar contracts as defense sectors prioritize touchless controls.”
First Half 2025 Financial Results and Recent Company Highlights:
- Revenues: $294,000 from the initial B2C sale of Mudra Link, continuous revenues from Mudra Band for Apple Watch, and B2B collaborations, marking a strategic expansion with Mudra Link’s launch. This reflects Wearable Devices’ new capability to serve both Android and iOS devices, broadening its market reach with a universal neural interface wristband and Apple Watch accessory.
- Patents Strategy: In 2025, Wearable Devices executed a dynamic and forward-focused patent strategy, which protects core neural interface capabilities and enhances gesture recognition by accurately defining gesture start and end points- eliminating the need for buttons. These patents form the foundation of the Company’s broader IP roadmap, building a broad, adaptable, and defensible global portfolio that covers future wearable bio-potential applications. This strategy positions Wearable Devices to capitalize across consumer XR, industrial automation, and assistive technology markets while safeguarding its technological leadership.
- Launched a new innovative and disruptive product- the Mudra Link: Officially launched the Mudra Link, the first AI neural interface wristband for Android and beyond, providing advanced neural input technology for Android users.
- Entering the Japanese Tech-Savvy Market with new collaboration with Media Exceed Co., Ltd. (“Media Exceed”), a leading e-commerce company in Japan. Under this agreement, Media Exceed will serve as a non-exclusive reseller of the award-winning Mudra Band and Mudra Link, bringing Wearable Devices’ innovative neural technology to Japan.
- Released a new Mudra Link update for Mac and Windows users, transforming it into a personalized neural wristband controller worn on the wrist as well as other significant enhancements.
- Launched an innovative project to advance human-machine interfaces for military applications. This cutting-edge initiative introduces a touchless neural control system that would enable soldiers to operate critical tactical systems seamlessly, enhancing operational efficiency and safety in high-stakes environments.
In the first half of 2025, Wearable Devices started delivering and recognizing revenues from the Mudra Link, a universal gesture control wearable wristband, in addition to continued recognition of revenue from the sale of Mudra Band for Apple Watch, the Company’s B2C products. Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2025 were $294 thousand, as compared to approximately $394 thousand compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024. Net loss decreased to $3.7 million, or $(2.3) per basic and diluted share, in the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to net loss of $4.2 million, or $(16.52) per basic and diluted share, for the six months ended June 30, 2024, primarily related to a decrease in the Company’s operating expenses in 2025.
