Everspin Achieves 'Rule of 40' 90

EVERSPIN is attracting market attention by achieving a score exceeding 90 on the 'Rule of 40' metric, a representative growth evaluation standard for SaaS companies.

Everspin recorded annual sales of 13.2 billion won in 2025, an increase of approximately 54% compared to the previous year's sales of 8.54 billion won. During the same period, operating profit expanded by approximately 841% to 4.91 billion won, and net profit also increased by 473% to 7.38 billion won, achieving its highest performance ever.

In particular, it is analyzed that the company recorded a level of approximately 91 on the 'Rule of 40,' an indicator that simultaneously evaluates the growth potential and profitability of SaaS companies. Generally, a score exceeding 40 on this indicator is considered indicative of a highly competitive SaaS company; it is noteworthy that the company demonstrated performance significantly exceeding this standard, given that cases meeting this criterion are rare in the domestic security industry.

The industry is paying attention to the fact that Everspin is growing into a global security platform company by expanding its business scope to financial institutions in Japan and Southeast Asia, based on its high market share in the domestic financial sector's digital channel security market.

The company provides security solutions centered on MTD (Moving Target Defense) hacking response technology and whitelist-based phishing blocking technology. A significant portion of revenue is generated from an Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR) model based on annual subscription licenses, and it is assessed that profitability is improving as operational leverage effects emerge from a fixed-cost-centric structure alongside the recent expansion of overseas sales.

A joint venture (JV) established for the Japanese digital channel security business is also contributing to growth. The JV recorded sales of 16.59 billion won, an operating profit of 10.5 billion won, and a net profit of 6.66 billion won in 2025. Everspin holds a 30% stake in this joint venture, and equity method gains of approximately 1.99 billion won resulting from this were reflected in the net profit.

In addition, Everspin was recognized for its technological competitiveness by winning the Presidential Award at the 2025 Korea Software Awards. This marks the second time the company has won the Presidential Award, following its win in 2017.

Based on such performance growth and business expansion, Everspin is preparing to file for a preliminary review for listing on KOSDAQ, targeting July or August of this year.

Meanwhile, with the recent increase in cyber security threats, there is a growing trend of adopting SaaS-based security platforms, particularly within the financial sector, and of global security companies pursuing initial public offerings (IPOs).
