Customer concentration is material. In FY2025, two customers individually accounted for approximately 52% and 23% of total revenues.

- Revenue model
- Nocopi generates revenue through direct product sales of its authentication inks and through multiyear license agreements with existing customers. In Europe, Contrast Technologies (formerly Euro-Nocopi S.A.) holds a perpetual royalty-free license to exploit certain Nocopi anti-counterfeiting technologies, so no ongoing royalty revenue flows from that territory.
- Products and services
- Copimark: an invisible printing system applied to documents or packaging that is revealed using a special highlighter pen for authentication. Rub & Reveal: a proprietary authentication technology for printed materials and products. The company also conducts ink production at its King of Prussia facility and maintains a patent portfolio requiring periodic annuity payments to remain in force.
- Customers and end markets
- End markets include brand owners, manufacturers, and businesses seeking to protect product labels, packaging, retail receipts, and event or transportation tickets from counterfeiting. In FY2025, two non-affiliated customers individually accounted for approximately 52% and 23% of total revenues, representing high customer concentration.
- Geographic exposure
- Primary operations are in the United States, headquartered in King of Prussia, Pennsylvania. Contrast Technologies holds a perpetual royalty-free license covering European territories. The company states it is focused on commercializing technologies across current and new geographic areas, but no specific international revenue breakdown is disclosed in the filing.
