What were the key financial metrics reported for Q2 2025 and how do they compare to expectations?

I’m sorry, but the brief excerpt you provided does not include the actual financial figures or any commentary on how the results compared to analysts’ expectations. It only tells us that CPI Card Group Inc. issued a press release announcing its second‑quarter 2025 results, without listing the specific metrics (e.g., revenue, earnings per share, operating margin, cash flow, etc.) or the market’s prior forecasts.

To give you a complete answer, I would need the detailed numbers that were reported in the release (or a more extensive summary of the filing) as well as any reference to consensus estimates or guidance that analysts had set for the quarter. If you can share those figures—or point me to a source that includes them—I’ll be able to compare the reported results to expectations and highlight any notable variances.
