Chirinjeev Kathuria, serving as Executive Chairman of AIRO Group Holdings, participated in the company’s second quarter 2026 earnings call on July 31, 2026. During the call, management reported revenue of $43.2 million for the quarter, a nearly 76% increase year-over-year, with growth driven by the drone segment while avionics and training underperformed. Gross margin improved to 64%, and operating income turned positive at $1.7 million, compared to a loss of $19.7 million in the same period of the prior year, which the company attributed to higher revenue and the absence of IPO-related costs.

Management stated that the core focus remains on drone and avionics operations, while acknowledging that the training business has required significant investment and that synergies with the core operations are limited.
