Cineverse Corp.: Form 10-K for the period ended Mar 31, 2026

OVERVIEW

Cineverse Corp. (“Cineverse”, “us”, “our”, "we", and “Company” refers to Cineverse Corp. and its subsidiaries unless the context otherwise requires) was incorporated in Delaware on March 31, 2000.

The Company has a long legacy in using technology to transform the entertainment industry and played a pioneering role in transitioning movie screens from traditional analog film prints to digital distribution. In recent years, Cineverse has transformed itself into a leading technology and independent streaming company.

Cineverse is a premier technology and entertainment company with its core streaming business operating as (i) a portfolio of owned and operated streaming channels with enthusiast fan bases; (ii) a large-scale global aggregator and full-service distributor of feature films and television programs; and (iii) a proprietary technology software-as-a-service platform for over-the-top (“OTT”) app development and content distribution through subscription video-on-demand ("SVOD"), dedicated ad-supported ("AVOD"), ad-supported streaming linear ("FAST") channels, social video streaming services, and audio podcasts. Our streaming channels reach audiences in several distinct ways: direct-to-consumer, through these major application platforms, and through third-party distributors of content on platforms.

The Company’s streaming technology platform, known as Matchpoint™, is a software-based streaming operating platform which provides clients with AVOD, SVOD, transactional video on demand ("TVOD") and linear capabilities, automates the distribution of content, and features a robust data analytics platform. Through the integration of Giant Worldwide, Matchpoint™ has expanded its automated media services ecosystem by adding deep operational expertise in digital delivery fulfillment, Master QC, content localization, and OTT content testing to longstanding studio relationships.

The Company’s Connected TV (“CTV”) monetization platform, IndiCue, provides proprietary location-based digital advertising technology solutions that offer advertisers a targetable, measurable, and accountable way to utilize CTV media and data solutions at scale. The Company also provides solutions for media owners, including an advertising platform for DOOH ("Digital Out-of-Home") networks that enables users to manage advertising inventory, optimize sales, and monetize unsold inventory.

We distribute products for major brands such as Hallmark, ITV, Nelvana, ZDF, Konami, NFL and Highlander, as well as leading international and domestic content creators, movie producers, television producers and other short-form digital content producers. We collaborate with producers, major brands and other content owners to market, source, curate and distribute quality content to targeted audiences through (i) existing and emerging digital home entertainment platforms, including but not limited to Apple iTunes, Amazon Prime, Netflix, Hulu, Xbox, Pluto, and Tubi, as well as (ii) physical goods, including DVD and Blu-ray Discs.

Cineverse’s broad portfolio enables the Company to achieve significant market share on key consumer streaming devices and platforms. As its channel portfolio has grown, the Company’s viewership and subscription metrics have grown significantly. The Company has rights to a library of over 66,000 titles, has reached over 130 million streaming viewers, has over 1.5 million SVOD subscribers, and 25 million followers on social media. The Company is well positioned in a changing media and entertainment landscape. As a leading independent distributor, the Company believes the enthusiast segment provides a significant and underserved market opportunity on a global basis. Today, the Company operates channels in numerous specialty sectors, including faith and family, anime, action, horror, sports, Westerns, Asian, stand-up comedy, and other major segments. From time to time, the Company will cease operating or distributing channels that do not find adequate audiences or meet the needs of platforms or audiences. We believe our scaled channel portfolio, our superior capabilities in launching and managing channels at scale, and our strategic partnerships with key content owners and platforms will provide us with a strategic advantage to gain considerable market share in the foreseeable future.

Given our ability to centralize operations and reduce operating costs with our proprietary technology, the Company also pursues accretive mergers and acquisitions ("M&A") opportunities in order to grow profitably and fortify its competitive advantage.

As part of its M&A strategy, the Company:

• explores opportunities for new technology and other revenue channels including e-commerce, podcasts and merchandise; and
• leverages its proprietary tech platform MatchpointTM, which allows for onboarding multiple acquisitions concurrently.

The Company believes it is positioned to deliver sustained profitable growth in the future by executing on several key areas of focus:

• Content: Acquiring and distributing high-quality, curated content through SVOD, AVOD and linear FAST channels.
• Audience: Growing viewership and subscription numbers significantly beyond our current base of more than 76 million monthly viewers to potentially hundreds of millions of global viewers across billions of connected devices.
• Technology and Distribution:
• Expanding streaming content and media services businesses through its Matchpoint™ platform,
• Offering targetable, measurable, and accountable CTV solutions through advertising technology.
• Launching and scaling our portfolio of enthusiast streaming channels.
• Accelerating the Company’s device and platform reach and further establishing key strategic advantages through expanded partnership deals with connected streaming TV companies including Amazon, Samsung, Roku, YouTube TV and Vizio, as well as large OEMs, cable companies and technology platforms including LG, Sling TV, and others; and
• Licensing film and TV content to leading players in OTT streaming ecosystem with Amazon, Apple, Netflix and Google.
• Financial Performance/Metrics:
• Driving EBITDA through incremental revenue growth from technology product launches such as Matchpoint™, expansion of distribution, improved monetization and partnerships, and continuous efforts on cost mitigation.

Our common stock is listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market, or Nasdaq, under the symbol “CNVS.”

Our Strategy

We believe that our large content library, long-standing relationships with digital platforms, state of the art technologies and years of experience operating and growing streaming audiences will allow us to continue to build a diversified portfolio of services and offerings that generate recurring revenue streams from advertising, subscriptions, merchandising, and services. We believe that our success, market leadership and scale will continue to attract strong brands, media companies, and CTV supply partners.

We believe that we are well positioned to succeed in the streaming, media services and CTV advertising channel business for the following key reasons:

• More than 15 years of experience as a primary distributor of content to scale third-party OTT platforms such as Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Prime, Tubi, Apple iTunes and more, and nearly seven years of history operating OTT channels with millions of downloads, hundreds of thousands of registered users, and hundreds of millions of discrete data points on our customer’s behavior and preferences;
• The depth and breadth of our over 66,000 title film and television episode library;
• Our digital assets and deep, long-standing relationships as launch partners that cover the major digital platforms and devices;
• Our marketing expertise;
• Our flexible releasing strategies, which differ from larger entertainment companies that need to protect their legacy businesses;
• Our proprietary streaming technology enables us to operate at scale and at lower operating costs than our competitors; and
• Our experienced management team.

An investment in our securities involves a degree of risk. The risks described below are not the only ones facing us. Additional risks not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also have a material adverse effect on us. If any of the following risks actually occur, our financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or business could be harmed. In that case, the market price of our stock could decline and you could lose part or all of your investment in our securities.

Risks Related to our Business

We face the risks of doing business in new and rapidly evolving markets and may not be able to successfully address such risks and achieve acceptable levels of success or profits.

We have encountered and may continue to encounter the challenges, uncertainties and difficulties frequently experienced in new and rapidly evolving markets, including:

• limited operating experience;
• net losses;
• lack of sufficient customers or loss of significant customers;
• a changing business focus;
• increased competition;
• our ability to significantly increase our subscriber base and retain customers;
• our ability to enforce our contracts and collect receivables from third parties;
• fluctuations in the use of the internet for the purchase of consumer goods and services such as those we offer;
• the success of our content licensing to/from other media companies;
• technical difficulties, system downtime or internet disruptions;
• the downward trend in sales of physical DVD and Blu-ray discs;
• our ability to successfully manage the integration of operations and technology resulting from possible future acquisitions;
• rapidly changing technology for some of the products and services we offer;
• difficulties in managing potentially rapid growth; and
• general economic conditions and economic conditions specific to the internet, online commerce and the media industry.

We expect competition to be intense. If we are unable to compete successfully, our business and results of operations will be seriously harmed.

The markets for technology and content distribution business are competitive, evolving and subject to rapid technological and other changes. We expect the intensity of competition in each of these areas to increase in the future. Companies willing to expend the necessary capital to create facilities and/or capabilities similar to ours may compete with our business. Increased competition may result in reduced, or prevent us from generating forecasted, revenues and/or margins and loss of market share, any of which could seriously harm our business. In order to compete effectively in each of these fields, we must differentiate ourselves from our competitors.

Many of our current and potential competitors may have longer operating histories and greater financial, technical, marketing and other resources than we do, which may permit them to adopt aggressive pricing policies. As a result, we may suffer from pricing pressures that could adversely affect our ability to generate revenues and our results of operations. Many of our competitors also have significantly greater name and brand recognition and a larger customer base than us. If we are unable to compete successfully, our business and results of operations will be seriously harmed.

Our plan to acquire additional businesses involves risks, including our inability to complete or integrate an acquisition successfully, our assumption of liabilities, dilution of your investment and significant costs.

Strategic and financially appropriate acquisitions are a key component of our growth strategy. Although there are no acquisitions identified by us as probable at this time, we may make acquisitions of similar or complementary businesses or assets. Even if we identify appropriate acquisition candidates, we may be unable to successfully negotiate the terms of the acquisitions, finance them, integrate the acquired business into our then-existing business, obtain required regulatory approvals, and/or attract and retain customers. Completing an acquisition and integrating an acquired business may require a significant diversion of management time and resources and may involve assuming new liabilities. Any acquisition also involves the risks that the assets acquired may prove less valuable than expected, that we may assume unknown or unexpected liabilities, costs and problems, and/or that the anticipated benefits of the acquired business, when integrated, are not realized. If we make one or more significant acquisitions in which any of the consideration consists of our capital stock, your equity interest in the Company could be diluted, perhaps significantly. If we were to proceed with one or more significant acquisitions in which the consideration included cash, we could be required to use a substantial portion of our available cash or obtain additional financing to consummate them.

We have recorded goodwill impairment charges in the past and may be required to record additional charges to future earnings if our goodwill becomes further impaired or our intangible assets become impaired.

We are required under generally accepted accounting principles to review our goodwill and definite-lived intangible assets for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. Goodwill must be tested for impairment at least annually. Factors that may be considered a change in circumstances indicating that the carrying value of our reporting units and intangible assets may not be recoverable include, slower growth rates in our industry or our own operations, and/or other materially adverse events that have implications on the profitability of our business. We may be required to record additional charges to earnings during any period in which further impairment of our goodwill or other intangible assets is determined that could adversely affect our results of operations.

If we do not manage our growth, our business will be harmed.

We may not be successful in managing our growth. Past growth has placed, and future growth will continue to place, significant challenges on our management and resources. To manage the expected growth of our operations, we will need to improve our existing, and implement new, operational and financial systems, procedures and controls. We may also need to expand our finance, administrative, client services and operations staff and train and manage our growing employee base effectively. Our current and planned personnel, systems, procedures and controls may not be adequate to support our future operations. Our business, results of operations and financial position may suffer if we do not effectively manage our growth.

If we are not successful in protecting our intellectual property, our business will suffer.

We depend heavily on technology and viewing content to operate our business. Our success depends on protecting our intellectual property, which is one of our most important assets. We have intellectual property consisting of:

• rights to certain domain names;
• registered service marks on certain names and phrases;
• various unregistered trademarks and service marks;
• film, television and other forms of viewing content;
• know-how; and
• rights to certain logos.

If we do not adequately protect our intellectual property, our business, financial position and results of operations would be harmed. Our means of protecting our intellectual property may not be adequate. Unauthorized parties may attempt to copy aspects of our intellectual property or to obtain and use information that we regard as proprietary. In addition, competitors may be able to devise methods of competing with our business that are not covered by our intellectual property. Our competitors may independently develop similar technology, duplicate our technology or design around any intellectual property that we may obtain.

Although we hold rights to various web domain names, regulatory bodies in the United States and abroad could establish additional top-level domains, appoint additional domain name registrars or modify the requirements for holding domain names. The relationship between regulations governing domain names and laws protecting trademarks and similar proprietary rights is unclear. We may be unable to prevent third-parties from acquiring domain names that are similar to or diminish the value of our proprietary rights.

We maintain outstanding indebtedness, which could impair our ability to operate our business and react to changes in our business, remain in compliance with debt covenants and make payments on our debt.

We maintain an amount of outstanding indebtedness, which could impair our ability to operate our business and react to changes in our business, remain in compliance with debt covenants and make payments on our debt. Our level of indebtedness could require a significant portion of our cash flow from operations to be dedicated to the payment of principal and interest on our indebtedness, therefore reducing our ability to use our cash flow to fund our operations, capital expenditures and future business opportunities.

In addition, our current credit facilities contain, and any future credit facilities will likely contain, covenants and other provisions that restrict our operations. These restrictive covenants and provisions could limit our ability to obtain future financing, make needed capital expenditures, withstand a future downturn in our business or the economy in general, or otherwise conduct necessary or advisable corporate activities, and may prevent us from taking advantage of business opportunities that arise in the future. If we refinance our credit facilities, we cannot guarantee that any new credit facility will not contain similar or other covenants and restrictions.

Cinedigm Digital Funding 2, LLC ("CDF2") and CDF2 Holdings, LLC ("CDF2 Holdings") are our indirect wholly-owned, non-consolidated variable interest entities ("VIEs") that are intended to be special purpose, bankruptcy remote entities. CDF2 Holdings has entered into a lease (the “CHG Lease”) pursuant to which CHG-Meridian U.S. Finance, Ltd. provided sale/leaseback financing for digital cinema projection systems that were partially financed as part of the Phase II deployment of our legacy digital equipment business. The CHG Lease is non-recourse to Cineverse and our subsidiaries, excluding our VIEs, CDF2 and CDF2 Holdings, as the case may be. Our financial exposure related to the debt of CDF2 and CDF2 Holdings is limited to the $2.0 million initial investment we made into CDF2 and CDF2 Holdings. CDF2 Holding’s total stockholder’s deficit as of March 31, 2026, was $59.2 million. We have no obligation to fund the operating loss or the deficit beyond our initial investment, and accordingly, we carried our investment in CDF2 Holdings at $0 as of March 31, 2026 and 2025.

The obligations and restrictions under the CHG Lease could have important consequences for CDF2 and CDF2 Holdings, including:

• restricting us from incurring liens on the digital cinema projection systems financed and from subleasing, assigning or modifying the digital cinema projection systems financed; and
• requiring them to dedicate a substantial portion of their cash flow to payments on their debt obligations, thereby reducing the availability of their cash flow for other uses.

If we are unable to meet our debt obligations, we could be forced to restructure or refinance our obligations, to seek additional equity financing or to sell assets, which we may not be able to do on satisfactory terms or at all. As a result, we could default on those obligations and in the event of such default, our lenders could accelerate our debt or take other actions that could restrict our operations.

The foregoing risks would be intensified to the extent we borrow additional money or incur additional debt.

We may not be able to generate the amount of cash needed to fund our future operations.

Our ability either to make payments on or to refinance our indebtedness, or to fund planned capital expenditures and research and development efforts, will depend on our ability to generate cash in the future. Our ability to generate cash is in part subject to general economic, financial, competitive, regulatory and other factors that are beyond our control.

Based on our current level of operations and in conjunction with the cost reduction measures that we have recently implemented and continue to implement, we believe our cash flow from operations, available borrowings and loan and credit agreement terms will be adequate to meet our future liquidity needs through at least the next twelve months. Significant assumptions underlie this belief, including, among other things, that there will be no material adverse developments in our business, liquidity or capital requirements. If we are unable to service our indebtedness, we will be forced to adopt an alternative strategy that may include actions such as:

• reducing capital expenditures;
• reducing our overhead costs and/or workforce;
• reducing research and development efforts;
• selling assets;
• restructuring or refinancing our remaining indebtedness; and
• seeking additional funding.

We cannot assure you, however, that our business will generate sufficient cash flow from operations, or that we will be able to make future borrowings in amounts sufficient to enable us to pay the principal and interest on our current indebtedness or to fund our other liquidity needs. We may need to refinance all or a portion of our indebtedness on or before maturity. We cannot assure you that we will be able to refinance any of our indebtedness on commercially reasonable terms or at all.

We have incurred losses over the long-term.

We have incurred long-term losses and have financed our operations principally through equity investments and borrowings. As of March 31, 2026, we had a negative working capital, defined as current assets less current liabilities, of $(12.2) million, and cash and cash equivalents of $3.4 million, and total equity of $43.4 million. The Company used $26.5 million of net cash flows for its operations for the year ended March 31, 2026.

Our net losses and cash outflows may increase as and to the extent that we increase the size of our business operations, increase our sales and marketing activities, increase our content distribution rights acquisition activities, enlarge our customer support and professional services and acquire additional businesses. These efforts may prove to be more expensive than we currently anticipate which could further increase our losses. We must continue to increase our revenues in order to become profitable. We cannot reliably predict when, or if, we will become profitable. Even if we achieve profitability, we may not be able to sustain it. If we cannot generate operating income or positive cash flows in the future, we will be unable to meet our working capital requirements.

Our success will significantly depend on our ability to hire and retain key personnel.

Our success will depend in significant part upon the continued performance of our senior management personnel and other key technical, sales and creative personnel. We do not currently have significant “key person” life insurance policies for any of our employees. We currently have employment agreements with our Chief Executive Officer, our President and Chief Strategy Officer, our President of Technology and Chief Product Officer, our Chief Legal Officer, our Chief Financial Officer, our Chief Motion Pictures Officer, and our Chief People Officer. If we lose one or more of our key employees, we may not be able to find a suitable replacement(s) and our business and results of operations could be adversely affected. In addition, competition for key employees necessary to create and distribute our entertainment content and software products is intense and may grow in the future. Our future success will also depend upon our ability to hire, train, integrate and retain qualified new employees and our inability to do so may have an adverse impact upon our business, financial condition, operating results, liquidity and prospects for growth.

Our success depends on external factors in the media industry.

Our success depends on the commercial success of media content, which is unpredictable. Operating in the motion picture and television industry involves a substantial degree of risk. Content is an individual artistic work, and inherently unpredictable audience reactions primarily determine commercial success. Generally, the popularity of content depends on many factors, including the critical acclaim received, the format of the initial release, for example, theatrical or direct-to-streaming, the actors and other key talent, the genre and the specific subject matter. The commercial success of movies and television programs also depends upon the quality and acceptance of movies or programs that our competitors release into the marketplace at or near the same time, critical reviews, the availability of alternative forms of entertainment and leisure activities, general economic conditions and other tangible and intangible factors, many of which we do not control and all of which may change. We cannot predict the future effects of these factors with certainty, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, operating results, liquidity and prospects. In addition, because a theatrical movie or streaming content's performance in ancillary markets, such as branded consumer goods, is often directly related to its box office performance or television ratings, poor box office results or poor television ratings may negatively affect future revenue streams. Our success will depend on the experience and judgment of our management to select and develop new content acquisition and investment opportunities. We cannot make assurances that movies and streaming content will obtain favorable reviews or ratings, will perform well at the box office or in ancillary markets or that broadcasters will license the rights to broadcast any of our content in development or renew licenses to use programs in our library. The failure to achieve any of the foregoing could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, operating results, liquidity and prospects.

Our business involves risks of liability claims for media content, which could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

As a distributor of media content, we may face potential liability for:

• defamation;
• invasion of privacy;
• negligence;
• copyright or trademark infringement (as discussed above); and
• other claims based on the nature and content of the materials distributed.

These types of claims have been brought, sometimes successfully, against producers and distributors of media content. Any imposition of liability that is not covered by insurance or is in excess of insurance coverage could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, operating results, liquidity and prospects.

Our revenues and earnings are subject to market downturns.

Our revenues and earnings may fluctuate significantly in the future. General economic or other conditions could cause lower than expected revenues and earnings within our technology or content and entertainment businesses. A global economic turmoil can cause a general tightening in the credit markets, lower levels of liquidity, increases in the rates of default and bankruptcy, an unprecedented level of intervention from the U.S. federal government and other foreign governments, decreased consumer confidence, overall slower economic activity and extreme volatility in credit, equity and fixed income markets. A decrease in economic activity in the U.S. or in other regions of the world in which we do business could adversely affect demand for our content, thus reducing our revenue and earnings. Moreover, financial institution failures may cause us to incur increased expenses or make it more difficult either to finance future acquisitions, or finance operating activities. In addition, the recently announced tariffs by the U.S. government, particularly if imposed on foreign movies or otherwise targeting the film industry, could affect our expenses and pricing. Any of these factors could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and could result in significant additional dilution to shareholders.

Changes in economic conditions could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position and results of operations.

Our operations and performance could be influenced by worldwide economic conditions. Uncertainty about current global economic conditions poses a risk as consumers and businesses may postpone spending in response to tighter credit, negative financial news and/or declines in income or asset values, which could have a material negative effect on the demand for our products and services. Other factors that could influence demand include increases in energy costs, conditions in the residential real estate and mortgage markets, labor and healthcare costs, access to credit, consumer confidence, and other macroeconomic factors affecting consumer-spending behavior. These and other economic factors could have a material adverse effect on demand for our products and services and on our financial condition and operating results. Uncertainty about current global economic conditions could also continue to increase the volatility of our stock price.

Changes to existing accounting pronouncements or taxation rules or practices may affect how we conduct our business and affect our reported results of operations.

New accounting pronouncements or tax rules and varying interpretations of accounting pronouncements or taxation practice have occurred and may occur in the future. A change in accounting pronouncements or interpretations or taxation rules or practices can have a significant effect on our reported results and may even affect our reporting of transactions completed before the change is effective. Changes to existing rules and pronouncements, future changes, if any, or the questioning of current practices or interpretations may adversely affect our reported financial results or the way we conduct our business.

Our ability to utilize our net operating loss carryforwards in the future is subject to substantial limitations and we may not be able to use some identified net operating loss carryforwards, which could result in increased tax payments in future periods.

As of March 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company had $19.2 million and $16.2 million of net operating loss

carryforwards as a deferred tax asset. Under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code, if a corporation undergoes an ownership change (generally defined as a greater than 50% change (by value) in its equity ownership over a three-year period), the corporation’s ability to use its pre-change net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforwards to offset its post-change income may be limited. Similar rules may apply under state tax laws. On November 1, 2017, we experienced an ownership change with respect to the acquisition by Bison of our equity. Accordingly, our ability to utilize our NOL carryforwards attributable to periods prior to November 1, 2017, is subject to substantial limitations. These limitations could result in increased future tax payments, which could be material. We experienced subsequent ownership changes under Section 382 on September 15, 2020 and November 1, 2022, which resulted in additional limitations in our ability to utilize our NOL carryforwards attributable to periods prior to September 15, 2020 and November 2022, respectively. The limitations triggered by the September 15, 2020 and November 1, 2022 ownership changes were significantly less substantial than the limitation triggered by the November 1, 2017 ownership change.

Our advertising technology growth is subject to the growth of connected television and the platforms to which we have access.

Our growth depends on the continued expansion of ad‑supported CTV and streaming and on our ability to access that demand and supply. If CTV advertising spend grows more slowly than expected, shifts toward walled gardens or platforms we cannot access, or concentrates among a limited number of large platforms or sellers, our operating results and growth prospects could be harmed. Because CTV inventory and demand are concentrated among a relatively small number of large publishers, platforms, and intermediaries, these participants may exert significant control over pricing, access, and transaction pathways, including favoring proprietary or exclusive solutions.

If we do not continue to acquire premium content, our advertising-related businesses will decline.

Our ability to attract advertising demand depends on maintaining and expanding access to high-quality CTV inventory across owned-and-operated properties and third-party partners. Our success in this regard depends on continued content acquisition, programming, distribution, and partner relationships. If we are unable to secure or retain premium inventory on favorable terms, or if partners shift inventory to competitors or proprietary channels, the volume, quality, and pricing power of inventory available through our platforms could decline.

Our profitability is impacted by sales channels and we are subject to pricing pressures at each stage in our advertising technology businesses' supply chain, which may negatively impact profitability.

We generate revenue primarily on a transactional basis, and our effective take rate varies by client, channel, and transaction type. Our revenue and margins are sensitive to shifts in mix, including between direct-sold and programmatic demand, and between reserved/guaranteed and open auction transactions. Buyers may demand pricing concessions, transparency, or rebates, while sellers may seek more favorable economics or guarantees. Changes in transaction mix or increased pricing pressure could reduce our take rate and profitability, even if overall spend on our platform grows.

Our advertising technology business does not have contractual protections against sudden customer loss which may expose us to a material decline in revenue.

Our relationships with buyers and sellers are generally non‑exclusive, may be terminated on relatively short notice, and typically do not include minimum volume or long‑term commitments, which exposes us to the risk of rapid and significant reductions in revenue. Buyers and sellers are generally free to do business with our competitors, purchase and sell advertising inventory directly with one another, or reduce or cease their use of our programmatic marketplace without penalty, which makes our business highly vulnerable to changes in the macro environment, price competition, and the availability of alternative solutions. Because the market for digital and CTV advertising is concentrated among a finite number of large buyers and sellers, if one or more significant buyers or sellers materially reduces spend or inventory flowing through our programmatic marketplace, or terminates its relationship with us, we could experience an immediate and significant decline in our revenue and profitability and degradation in the attractiveness of our platform to other participants.

Our advertising technology performance, scalability and viability requires continuous successful investment in order to stay competitive.

Our advertising technology is a complex, real‑time technology platform that must continuously process large volumes of ad requests and deliver campaigns across multiple devices and formats, particularly high‑bandwidth CTV environments. Any failure to maintain, scale, and enhance this platform could harm our business. We must invest significant resources in developing and improving our platform to respond to rapid changes in advertising technology, including advancements in AI, evolving industry standards, and new ad formats and transaction types. We may not successfully prioritize or execute these development efforts in a timely or cost‑effective manner.

If we are unable to scale the IndiCue platform to handle increased transaction volumes, manage infrastructure costs (including cloud and data center expenses), or maintain fast and reliable performance, we may experience service disruptions, degraded performance, loss of clients, margin compression, and increased financial strain.

Our business may be heavily influenced by artificial intelligence ("AI") and our ability to compete in an evolving regulatory landscape may expose us to cost and compliance risk.

Advancements in AI are changing the way content is distributed, bought, sold, and optimized. Our ability to effectively compete with competitors may depend in part on how successfully we incorporate AI into our business. Competitors, including larger platforms with greater resources, may integrate AI‑driven content preparation, distribution, bidding, optimization, forecasting, and measurement capabilities more quickly or effectively than we do. This could make their solutions more attractive to buyers and sellers and reduce demand. In addition, our use of AI may be subject to evolving legal and regulatory requirements and expectations, including with respect to data usage, transparency, bias, and accountability, and any failure to comply with such requirements or to manage related cybersecurity and intellectual property risks could result in increased compliance costs, regulatory scrutiny, litigation, or reputational harm.

An increase in privacy tools and laws may lead to a reduction in data available which may adversely impact our advertising technology business.

Our platform depends on the collection, processing, and use of data to help buyers and sellers target, measure and optimize advertising campaigns. Evolving privacy laws, platform policies, and privacy tools may reduce the availability or utility of such data and increase our compliance costs. Domestic and international data‑protection, privacy and digital‑advertising laws and regulations including, the GDPR, UK‑GDPR, CCPA, and similar state laws, as well as emerging rules targeting data brokers and digital advertising may restrict the types of data we, our partners, and clients can collect and use. These laws may also impose additional notice, consent, and opt‑out requirements, or require changes to our data practices and technical infrastructure. This could diminish the effectiveness and value of our platform and adversely affect our revenue.

Our place in our advertising technology supply chain exposes us to credit risk and material working capital commitments.

We may be required, or may elect, to pay sellers for impressions delivered prior to collecting, or even if we are unable to collect, corresponding amounts from buyers, including demand side platforms and other intermediaries that control large volumes of spend across multiple advertisers. If buyers delay payment, experience financial difficulties, or fail to pay amounts owed to us, particularly where underlying advertisers default or dispute charges, we may incur bad debt expense, be forced to use more of our working capital to fund payments to sellers, and be required to divert cash from other strategic uses, any of which could adversely affect our liquidity and results of operations.

RISKS RELATED TO INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY

Any significant disruption in or unauthorized access to our computer systems or those of third-parties that we utilize in our operations, including relating to cybersecurity or arising from cyber-attacks, could result in a loss or degradation of service, unauthorized access, harm to our reputation, disclosure or destruction of data, or theft of intellectual property, including digital content assets, which could adversely impact our business.

Our reputation and ability to attract, retain and serve our customers is dependent upon the reliable performance and security of our computer systems, mobile and other user applications, and those of third-parties that we utilize in our operations. These systems may be subject to cyber incident, adverse weather conditions, lack of maintenance due to human error or oversight, natural disasters, public health issues such as pandemics or endemics, terrorist attacks, power loss, telecommunications failures, cybersecurity risks and incidents, and other interruptions beyond our control. Interruptions in, or destruction or manipulation of, these systems, or with the internet in general, could make our service unavailable or degraded or otherwise hinder our ability to deliver streaming content. Service interruptions, errors in our software or the unavailability of computer systems or data used in our operations, delivery or user interface could diminish the overall attractiveness of our user service to existing and potential users.

Our computer systems, mobile and other applications and systems of third-parties we use in our operations are vulnerable to constantly evolving cybersecurity risks, including cyber-attacks and loss of integrity or availability, both from state-sponsored and individual activity, such as hacks, unauthorized access, computer viruses, denial of service attacks, electronic break-ins, malware, ransomware, insider threats, and misconfigurations in information systems, networks, software or hardware, errors and similar disruptions and destruction. Such systems have previously and may continue to periodically experience directed attacks intended to lead to interruptions, disruptions and delays in our service and operations as well as loss, misuse or theft of data or intellectual property. Any attempt by hackers to obtain our data or intellectual property (including digital content assets), disrupt our service, or otherwise access our systems, or those of third-parties we use, if successful, could harm our business, be expensive to remedy, expose us to potential liability and damage our reputation.

We have implemented certain systems and processes to thwart hackers and protect our data and systems. There is no assurance that cyber incidents may not have a material impact on our service or systems in the future. Our insurance may not cover expenses related to such disruptions, losses or unauthorized access. Efforts to prevent hackers from disrupting our service or otherwise accessing our systems are expensive to implement and may limit the functionality of or otherwise negatively impact our service offering and systems. Any significant disruption to our service or access to our systems could result in a loss of users, liability and adversely affect our business and results of operations.

We utilize our own communications and computer hardware systems located in those of a third-party web hosting provider. In addition, we utilize third-party “cloud” computing services in connection with our business operations. We also utilize third-party content delivery networks to help us stream content in high volume to Cineverse users over the internet. Problems faced by us or our third-party Web hosting, “cloud” computing, or other network providers, including technological or business-related disruptions, as well as cybersecurity threats, could adversely impact the experience of our users, resulting in a loss of users, which could adversely affect our business and results of operations.

If the technology we use in operating our business fails, is unavailable, or does not operate to expectations, our business and results of operations could be adversely impacted.

We utilize a combination of proprietary and third-party technology to operate our business. This includes the technology that we have developed to recommend and promote content to our consumers as well as enable fast and efficient delivery of content to our users and their various consumer electronic devices. We utilize third-party technology to help market our service, process payments and otherwise manage the daily operations of our business. If our technology or that of third-parties we utilize in our operations fails or otherwise operates improperly, including as a result of “bugs” in the development and deployment of software, our ability to operate our service, retain existing users and add new users may be impaired.

We rely upon Amazon Web Services (“AWS”) and Google Cloud Platform (“GCP) to operate certain aspects of our service, and any disruption of or interference with our use of AWS or GCP would impact our operations and our business would be adversely affected.

AWS provides a distributed computing infrastructure platform for business operations, or what is commonly referred to as a “cloud” computing service. We have designed our software and computer systems so as to utilize data processing, storage capabilities and other services provided by AWS. Currently, we run the vast majority of our computing on AWS. In addition, Amazon.com’s retail division competes with us for users, and Amazon.com could use, or restrict our use of, AWS to gain a competitive advantage against us. Because we rely heavily on AWS for computing infrastructure and we cannot easily switch our AWS operations to another cloud provider, any disruption of or interference with our use of AWS would impact our operations and our business would be adversely affected.

Interruptions or delays in service arising from our own systems or from our third-party vendors could impair the delivery of our service and harm our business.

We rely on systems housed at those of third-party vendors, including network service providers and data center facilities, to enable viewers to stream our content in a dependable and efficient manner. We have experienced, and expect to continue to experience, periodic service interruptions and delays involving our own systems and those of our third-party vendors. We do not currently maintain live fail-over capability that would allow us to instantaneously switch our streaming operations from AWS to another cloud provider in the event of a service outage at AWS. We house the original or primary copy of our library database at off-site cloud locations. Our third-party vendors are vulnerable to damage or interruption from earthquakes, floods, fires, power loss, telecommunications failures and similar events. They also are subject to break-ins, hacking, denial of service attacks, sabotage, intentional acts of vandalism, terrorist acts, natural disasters, human error, the financial insolvency of our third-party vendors and other unanticipated problems or events. The occurrence of any of these events could result in interruptions in our service and the unauthorized access to, or alteration of, the content and data contained on our systems and that these third-party vendors store and deliver on our behalf.

We do not exercise complete control over our third-party vendors, which makes us vulnerable to any errors, interruptions, or delays in their operations. Any disruption in the services provided by these vendors could have a significant adverse impact on our business reputation, customer relations and operating results. Upon expiration or termination of any of our agreements with third-party vendors, we may not be able to replace the services provided to us in a timely manner or on terms and conditions, including service levels and cost, that are favorable to us, and a transition from one vendor to another vendor could subject us to operational delays and inefficiencies until the transition is complete.

Risks Related to Our Common Stock

The liquidity of our Common Stock is uncertain; the limited trading volume of our Common Stock may depress the price of such stock or cause it to fluctuate significantly.

Although our Common Stock is listed on Nasdaq, there has been a limited public market for our Common Stock and there can be no assurance that a more active trading market for our Common Stock will develop. As a result, you may not be able to sell your shares of our Common Stock in short time periods, or possibly at all. The absence of an active trading market may cause the price per share of our Common Stock to fluctuate significantly.

Substantial resales or future issuances of our Common Stock could depress our stock price.

The aggregate authorized offering price under our ATM Sales Agreement is $30 million. The market price for our Common Stock could decline, perhaps significantly, as a result of resales or issuances of a large number of shares of our Common Stock in the public market or even the perception that such resales or issuances could occur. In addition, we have outstanding a substantial number of convertible securities and warrants that are convertible and exercisable, as applicable, for shares of our Common Stock. These factors could also make it more difficult for us to raise funds through future offerings of our equity securities.

You will incur substantial dilution as a result of certain future equity issuances.

We have convertible notes and warrants currently outstanding which may be immediately converted or exercised to

acquire shares of Common Stock. To the extent that these convertible notes or warrants are converted or exercised, as the case may be, or to the extent we issue additional shares of Common Stock in the future there will be further dilution to holders of shares of the Common Stock. In 2023, when stockholders approved a 20-for-1 reverse split of the Common Stock, stockholders did not approve proportionately reducing the number of authorized shares of Common Stock. Accordingly, we have 275,000,000 shares of Common Stock authorized for issuance and less than 10% of that number issued and outstanding, allowing for additional issuances that would result in significant dilution.

Our issuance of preferred stock could adversely affect holders of Common Stock.

Our Board of Directors (the "Board of Directors") is authorized to issue series of preferred stock without any action on the part of our holders of Common Stock. The Board of Directors also has the power, without stockholder approval, to set the terms of any such series of preferred stock that may be issued, including voting rights, dividend rights, preferences over our Common Stock with respect to dividends or if we liquidate, dissolve or wind up our business and other terms. If we issue preferred stock in the future that has preference over our Common Stock with respect to the payment of dividends or upon our liquidation, dissolution or winding up, or if we issue preferred stock with voting rights that dilute the voting power of our Common Stock, the rights of holders of our Common Stock or the price of our Common Stock could be adversely affected.

Our stock price has been volatile and may continue to be volatile in the future; this volatility may affect the price at which you could sell our Common Stock.

The trading price of our Common Stock has been volatile and may continue to be volatile in response to various factors, some of which are beyond our control. Any of the factors listed below could have a material adverse effect on an investment in our securities:

• actual or anticipated fluctuations in our quarterly financial results or the quarterly financial results of companies perceived to be similar to us;
• changes in the market’s expectations about our operating results;
• success of competitors;
• our operating results failing to meet the expectations of securities analysts or investors in a particular period;
• changes in financial estimates and recommendations by securities analysts concerning us, the market for digital and physical content, content distribution and entertainment in general;
• operating and stock price performance of other companies that investors deem comparable to us;
• our ability to market new and enhanced products on a timely basis;
• changes in laws and regulations affecting our business or our industry;
• commencement of, or involvement in, litigation involving us;
• changes in our capital structure, such as future issuances of securities or the incurrence of debt;
• the volume of shares of the Common Stock available for public sale;
• any major change in our Board of Directors or management;
• sales of substantial amounts of Common Stock by our directors, executive officers or significant stockholders or the perception that such sales could occur; and
• general economic and political conditions such as recessions, interest rates, international currency fluctuations and acts of war or terrorism.

Broad market and industry factors may materially harm the market price of the Common Stock irrespective of our operating performance. The stock market in general, and Nasdaq in particular, have experienced price and volume fluctuations that have often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of the particular companies affected. The trading prices and valuations of these stocks, and of the Common Stock, may not be predictable. A loss of investor confidence in the market for retail stocks or the stocks of other companies that investors perceive to be similar to us could depress our stock price regardless of our business, prospects, financial conditions or results of operations. A decline in the market price of the Common Stock also could adversely affect our ability to issue additional securities and our ability to obtain additional financing in the future.

Anti-takeover provisions contained in our certificate of incorporation and bylaws, as well as provisions of Delaware law, could impair a takeover attempt.

The Company's Fifth Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, and our Second Amended and Restated Bylaws contain provisions that could have the effect of delaying or preventing changes in control or changes in our management without the consent of the Board of Directors.

These provisions include:

• no cumulative voting in the election of directors, which limits the ability of minority stockholders to elect director candidates;
• the exclusive right of the Board of Directors to elect a director to fill a vacancy created by the expansion of the Board of Directors or the resignation, death, or removal of a director, which prevents stockholders from being able to fill vacancies on the Board of Directors;
• the ability of the Board of Directors to determine to issue shares of preferred stock and to determine the price and other terms of those shares, including preferences and voting rights, without stockholder approval, which could be used to significantly dilute the ownership of a hostile acquirer;
• the requirement that an annual meeting of stockholders may be called only by the Board of Directors, which may delay the ability of our stockholders to force consideration of a proposal or to take action, including the removal of directors;
• limiting the liability of, and providing indemnification to, our directors and officers; and
• controlling the procedures for the conduct and scheduling of stockholder meetings.

In addition, our certificate of incorporation authorizes the issuance of 15 million shares of preferred stock. The terms of our preferred stock may be fixed by the Company’s Board of Directors without further stockholder action. The terms of any outstanding series or class of preferred stock may include priority claims to assets and dividends and special voting rights, which could adversely affect the rights of holders of Common Stock. Any future issuance(s) of preferred stock could make the takeover of the Company more difficult, discourage unsolicited bids for control of the Company in which our stockholders could receive premiums for their shares, dilute or subordinate the rights of holders of Common Stock and adversely affect the trading price of the Common Stock.

These provisions, alone or together, could delay hostile takeovers and changes in control of the Company or changes in our management.

As a Delaware corporation, we are also subject to provisions of Delaware law, including Section 203 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the "DGCL"), which prevents some stockholders holding more than 15% of our outstanding Common Stock from engaging in certain business combinations without approval of the holders of substantially all of our outstanding common stock. Any provision of our certificate of incorporation or bylaws or Delaware law that has the effect of delaying or deterring a change in control could limit the opportunity for our stockholders to receive a premium for their shares of our common stock, and could also affect the price that some investors are willing to pay for our securities.

We may not be able to maintain the listing of our Common Stock on Nasdaq, which may adversely affect the flexibility of holders of Common Stock to resell their securities in the secondary market.

The Common Stock is presently listed on Nasdaq. If the Company is unable to meet the continued listing criteria of Nasdaq and the Common Stock became delisted, trading of the Common Stock could thereafter be conducted in the over-the-counter markets in the OTC Pink, also known as “pink sheets” or, if available, on another OTC trading platform. Any such delisting could harm our ability to raise capital through alternative financing sources on terms acceptable to us, or at all, and may result in a loss of confidence in our financial stability by suppliers, customers and employees. Investors would likely find it more difficult to dispose of, or to obtain accurate market quotations for, the Common Stock, as the liquidity that Nasdaq provides would no longer be available to investors. In addition, the failure of our Common Stock to continue to be listed on the Nasdaq could adversely impact the market price for the Common Stock and our other securities, and we could face a lengthy process to re-list the Common Stock, if we are able to re-list the Common Stock.

A sustained decrease in share price may indicate a risk the Company's goodwill may become impaired.

Under ASC 350, Goodwill, a sustained decline in share price represents a triggering event which would require the Company to test for impairment and there may be a risk that the Company incurs expenses related to goodwill impairment. No impairment was recognized during the year ended March 31, 2026. However, additional impairment may be incurred if there are future declines in the Company's share price.

We have no present intention of paying dividends on our Common Stock.

We have never paid any cash dividends on our Common Stock and have no present plans to do so. In addition, certain of our credit facilities restrict our ability to pay dividends on the Common Stock. As a result, you may not receive any return on an investment in our Common Stock unless you sell any shares you hold for a price greater than that which you paid for them.

Our ability to raise capital in the future may be limited, which could make us unable to fund our capital requirements.

Our business and operations may consume resources faster than we anticipate, or we may require additional funds to pursue acquisition or expansion opportunities. In the future, we may need to raise additional funds through the issuance of new equity securities, debt or a combination of both. Additional financing may not be available on favorable terms or at all. If adequate funds are not available on acceptable terms, we may be unable to fund our capital requirements. If we issue new debt securities, the debt holders would have rights senior to common stockholders to make claims on our assets, and the terms of any debt could restrict our operations, including our ability to pay dividends on our Common Stock. Because our decision to issue securities in any future offering will depend on market conditions and other factors beyond our control, we cannot predict or estimate the amount, timing or nature of our future offerings. Thus, our stockholders bear the risk of our future securities offerings reducing the market price of our Common Stock, diluting their interest or being subject to rights and preferences senior to their own.

General Risk Factors

We incur significant costs as a result of operating as a public company.

We are subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, the Dodd-Frank Act, Nasdaq’s listing requirements and other applicable securities laws and regulations, and, as a result, we incur significant legal, accounting and other expenses that we would not incur if we were not a public company. The expenses incurred by public companies for reporting and corporate governance purposes have generally been increasing. We expect these rules and regulations to continue to increase our legal and financial compliance costs and to make some activities more difficult, time-consuming and costly. The demands associated with being a public company may disrupt regular operations of our business by diverting the attention of some of our senior management team away from revenue producing activities to management and administrative oversight, adversely affecting our ability to attract and complete business opportunities and increasing the difficulty in both retaining professionals and managing and growing our businesses. Furthermore, if we are unable to satisfy our obligations as a public company, we could be subject to the delisting of our Common Stock, fines, sanctions and other regulatory action and potentially civil litigation. Any of these effects could harm our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

Compliance obligations under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act require substantial financial and management resources.

Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires that we evaluate and report on our system of internal controls. For as long as we remain a smaller reporting company, we will not be required to comply with the independent registered public accounting firm attestation requirement on our internal control over financial reporting. However, in the event we are deemed to be an accelerated filer or a large accelerated filer or otherwise no longer qualify as a smaller reporting company, we will be required to comply with the independent registered public accounting firm attestation requirement on our internal control over financial reporting. The maintenance of the internal control system to achieve compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act may impose obligations on us and require substantial additional financial and management resources. Further, although we do not currently have any material weakness in our disclosure controls and internal control over financial reporting, such issues have been discovered in the past and may be discovered in the future.

We cannot assure you that there will not be additional material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting now or in the future. Any failure to maintain internal control over financial reporting could severely inhibit our ability to accurately report our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. If we are unable to conclude that our internal control over financial reporting is effective, or if our independent registered public accounting firm determines that we have a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting, investors may lose confidence in the accuracy and completeness of our financial reports, the market price of our securities could decline, and we could be subject to sanctions or investigations by Nasdaq, the SEC or other regulatory authorities. Failure to remedy any material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting, or to implement or maintain other effective control systems required of public companies, could also impair our future access to capital markets.

Global health threats may adversely affect our business.

Our business could be adversely affected by the effects of a widespread outbreak of contagious disease, such as the outbreak of COVID-19. A significant outbreak of contagious diseases in the human population and resulting in a widespread health crisis could adversely affect the economies and financial markets of many countries, resulting in an economic downturn and reduced spending on media and technology. The reduction of economic activity and reduced spending related to such outbreaks and actions taken by governments to mitigate the spread of a virus or other infectious agent could have a material impact on our earnings, cash flow and financial condition.

We have established a comprehensive, enterprise-wide information security program designed to identify, protect against, detect, respond to, and manage reasonably foreseeable cybersecurity risks and threats. This program is seamlessly integrated into our overall risk management and internal control systems, subject to regular reviews by senior management.

By conducting regular risk assessments, we believe we effectively manage both internal and external cybersecurity threats. Our cybersecurity strategy is specifically tailored to our organization's size, scope, and business needs, emphasizing the protection of data. Our security infrastructure includes advanced tools and protocols, such as firewall protections, secure user authentication, and up-to-date antivirus and internet security software, which we believe are fundamental components of our operational protocols designed to mitigate vulnerabilities and efficiently address security incidents. We also periodically assess and manage cybersecurity risks associated with our third-party service providers.

The ongoing improvement of our cybersecurity measures is overseen by members of senior management. We do not employ or engage any third parties for cybersecurity consulting or monitoring, aside from technical support teams from our application vendors.

In the normal course of business, we proactively manage and monitor cybersecurity activities. To date, these efforts have successfully prevented any incidents that could materially affect our business strategy, operational results, or financial condition. We remain vigilant and are not currently aware of any threats that pose a material risk.

We believe our detailed incident response procedures enable us to effectively manage and mitigate the impacts of security breaches. Continuous monitoring and post-incident analysis further refine our security strategies, enhancing our protective measures. Our Board and the Audit Committee provide oversight over our cybersecurity efforts and stay regularly informed on cybersecurity matters, including emerging risks and mitigation strategies, to ensure informed governance over our enterprise risk assessments and cybersecurity approach. Cybersecurity matters are discussed regularly with senior management, and any significant cybersecurity events are promptly reported to the Board.

For additional information about cybersecurity risks, see Risk Factors, Any significant disruption in or unauthorized access to our computer systems or those of third-parties that we utilize in our operations, including relating to cybersecurity or arising from cyber-attacks, could result in a loss or degradation of service, unauthorized access, harm to our reputation, disclosure or destruction of data, or theft of intellectual property, including digital content assets, which could adversely impact our business.

As of March 31, 2026, we maintain an address at 224 W. 35th St., Suite 500 #947, New York, NY 10001.

Additionally, we entered into office lease arrangements, which expire in 2027, for our offices located in Kolkata, India.

Subsequent to the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026, we entered into new lease arrangements for office locations in New York, New York and Burbank, California with terms extending through 2029.

We do not own any real estate or invest in real estate or related investments.

Risks and Uncertainties

Our business and prospects are exposed to numerous risks and uncertainties. For more information, see “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in this report.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We have incurred net losses historically. For the year ended March 31, 2026, we have net loss attributable to common stockholders of $(9.2) million. As of March 31, 2026, we had an accumulated deficit of $510.1 million and net cash used in operations for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026 was $26.5 million. We have negative working capital of $(12.2) million as of March 31, 2026, we may continue to generate net losses for the foreseeable future.

The Company is party to a Loan, Guaranty, and Security Agreement, as amended on April 8, 2025, with East West Bank (the "Line of Credit Facility") currently provides for borrowings of up to $12.5 million guaranteed by substantially all of our material subsidiaries and secured by substantially all of our and our subsidiaries’ assets. The facility includes provisions that allow for an increase in total borrowing capacity up to $15.0 million, subject to lender approval.

As of March 31, 2026, $9.4 million was outstanding on the Line of Credit Facility. Under the Line of Credit Facility, the Company is subject to certain financial and non-financial covenants including terms which require the Company to maintain certain metrics and ratios, to maintain certain minimum cash on hand, and to report financial information to our lender on a periodic basis. Please see Note 5 - Debt for further information regarding the Company's Line of Credit Facility.

On February 17, 2026, the Company sold in a public offering an aggregate of 1,725,000 shares of Common Stock (the “Offered Shares”) at a price of $2.00 per share, for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $3.45 million, before deducting underwriting commissions and expenses payable by the Company The Offered Shares were sold pursuant to an Underwriting Agreement with The Benchmark Company, LLC and pursuant a prospectus and prospectus supplement which are part of the Company’s shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-273098) filed with the SEC.

On February 12, 2026, the Company issued and sold convertible notes in the aggregate principal amount of $13,000,000 (each, a “Note”) to certain lenders (individually, an “Investor” and collectively, the “Investors”) pursuant to those certain note purchase agreements (each, a “Purchase Agreement”), dated February 12, 2026, between the Company and each Investor. The Notes mature on the earlier to occur of (i) the four-year anniversary of issuance and (ii) an event of default (such date, the “Maturity Date”). The Notes bear interest at a rate of 9% per annum payable in cash or, as to a portion, in shares of Common Stock in the holder’s discretion. At any time after issuance of the Notes, the Investors may convert their Notes, in whole or in part, into shares of Common Stock, in accordance with the terms of the Notes at a conversion price per share of $2.00 (the “Conversion Price”), subject to customary adjustments upon any stock split, stock dividend, stock combination, recapitalization or similar events.

The Company can require conversion in tranches of up to approximately 15% of the original principal amount of the Notes during each of the six-month periods beginning July 1, 2026 and ending December 31, 2028, with any unconverted tranches available on a cumulative basis in future tranches. The Notes may be prepaid by paying 100% of the outstanding principal amount, interest on the outstanding principal amount through the earlier of the Maturity Date or the date that is 24 months from the date of prepayment, and warrants (the “Warrants”) to purchase the number of shares of Common Stock into which the principal amount then outstanding would be convertible at the Conversion Price, with such warrants having an exercise price equal to such Conversion Price and a term that ends on the Maturity Date. The Notes rank junior to secured debt of the Company, including the Line of Credit Facility.

On May 3, 2024, the Company entered into an at-the-market, or ATM, Sales Agreement (the “Sales Agreement”) with A.G.P./Alliance Global Partners and The Benchmark Company, LLC (collectively, the “Sales Agents”), pursuant to which the Company may offer and sell, from time to time, through the Sales Agents, shares of its Class A common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”). Shares of Common Stock may be offered and sold for an aggregate offering price of up to $15 million. The Sales Agents’ obligations to sell shares under the Sales Agreement are subject to satisfaction of certain conditions, including the continuing effectiveness of the Registration Statement on Form S-3 (Registration No. 333-273098) (the “Registration Statement”) filed by the Company with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on June 30, 2023 and declared effective by the SEC on January 25, 2024, and other customary closing conditions. The Company will pay the Sales Agents a commission of 3.00% of the aggregate gross proceeds from each sale of shares and has agreed to provide the Sales Agents with customary indemnification and contribution rights. The Company has also agreed to reimburse the Sales Agents for certain specified expenses. The Company is not obligated to sell any shares under the Sales Agreement. During the year ended March 31, 2026, the Company sold 397 thousand shares for net proceeds of $1.0 million, after deduction of commissions and fees.

On April 5, 2024, Cineverse Terrifier LLC (“T3 Borrower”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company entered into a Loan and Security Agreement with BondIt LLC (“T3 Lender”) and the Company, as a guarantor (the “T3 Loan Agreement”). The T3 Loan Agreement provides for a term loan with a principal amount not to exceed $3,666,000 (the “T3 Loan”), and a maturity date of April 1, 2025. The T3 Loan incurred no interest until the maturity date other than an interest advance equal to $576,000 at the closing of the T3 Loan on April 5, 2024. The interest advance was recorded as a discount on the T3 Loan at inception and was amortized to interest expense and increase the loan amount over its term. The proceeds under the T3 Loan Agreement were used for the funding under the Company’s distribution arrangements for the film titled Terrifier 3 (the “Film”). The T3 Loan, including interest of $576 thousand, was repaid in advance during the year ended March 31, 2025.

After the principal of the T3 Loan was paid in full, the T3 Lender was entitled to receive 15% of all royalties earned by the Company on the Film under its distribution agreements for the Film until the T3 Lender received 1.75 times the full commitment amount of $3,666,000, consisting of the principal amount plus interest and fees advanced to T3 Borrower ("Participation Interest"), plus any extension interest. The T3 Loan was secured by a first priority interest in all of T3 Borrower’s rights and interest in the Film and the distribution agreements, including the proceeds to the T3 Borrower from the distribution of the Film. During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026, the Company paid the T3 Lender $700,000 in Participation Interest

During the year ended March 31, 2026, the Company negotiated a reduction to the accrued Participation Interest of $375 thousand and made a final payment of $944 thousand to the T3 Lender. The $375 thousand reduction to Participation Interest was recorded as a reduction to interest expense in our Consolidated Statement of Operations for the year ended March 31, 2026.

The Company will continue to invest in content development and acquisition, from which it believes it will obtain an appropriate return on its investment. As of March 31, 2026 and 2025, short term content advances were $7.5 million and $6.7 million, respectively, and content advances, net of current portion were, $8.2 million and $4.1 million, respectively.

Our capital requirements will depend on many factors, and we may need to use existing capital resources and/or undertake equity or debt offerings, if necessary and opportunistically available, for further capital needs. Management's plans with respect to the Company's recurring net losses and net operating cash outflows also include but are not limited to our effort in increasing revenue from existing services as well as offering new services, which may result in additional income from operations. Should management be unsuccessful in executing these plans, additional capital resources will be necessary. There can be no assurance that resources under our Line of Credit Facility or from additional debt or equity resources will be available on acceptable terms, if at all. We believe our cash and cash equivalents and availability under our Line of Credit Facility as of March 31, 2026 will be sufficient to support our operations for at least twelve months from the filing of this report.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). In connection with the preparation of our consolidated financial statements, we are required to make assumptions and estimates about future events and apply judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses and the related disclosures. We base our assumptions, estimates and judgments on historical experience, current trends and other factors that management believes to be relevant at the time our consolidated financial statements are prepared. On a regular basis, management reviews the accounting policies, assumptions, estimates and judgments to ensure that our consolidated financial statements are presented fairly and in accordance with GAAP. However, because future events and their effects cannot be determined with certainty, actual results could differ from our assumptions and estimates, and such differences could be material.

Our significant accounting policies are discussed in Note 2 – Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, included in Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Management believes that the following accounting policies are the most critical to aid in fully understanding and evaluating our reported financial results, and they require management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, resulting from the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. Management has reviewed these critical accounting estimates and related disclosures with the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors.

FAIR VALUE ESTIMATES

Goodwill

Goodwill is the excess of the purchase price paid over the fair value of the net assets of an acquired business. Goodwill is tested for impairment on an annual basis or more often if warranted by events or changes in circumstances indicating that the carrying value may exceed fair value, also known as impairment indicators.

Inherent in the fair value determination for each reporting unit are certain judgments and estimates relating to future cash flows, including management’s interpretation of current economic indicators and market conditions, and assumptions about our strategic plans with regard to its operations. To the extent additional information arises, market conditions change, or our strategies change, it is possible that the conclusion regarding whether our remaining goodwill is impaired could change and result in future goodwill impairment charges that will have a material effect on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.

In certain reporting periods, the Company may have the option to assess goodwill for possible impairment by performing a qualitative analysis to determine if it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount or to perform the quantitative impairment test.

Intangible Assets, net

We review the recoverability of our long-lived assets and finite-lived intangible assets, when events or conditions occur that indicate a possible impairment exists. Determining whether impairment has occurred typically requires various estimates and assumptions, including determining which cash flows are directly related to the potentially impaired asset, the useful life over which cash flows will occur, their amount and the asset’s residual value, if any. The assessment for recoverability is based primarily on our ability to recover the carrying value of our long-lived and finite-lived assets from expected future undiscounted net cash flows. If the total expected future undiscounted net cash flows is less than the total carrying value of the assets the asset is deemed not to be recoverable and possibly impaired. We then estimate the fair value of the asset to determine whether an impairment loss should be recognized. An impairment loss will be recognized if the asset’s fair value is determined to be less than its carrying value. Fair value is determined by computing the expected future discounted cash flows.

In the years ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, no impairment charges were recorded to intangible assets.

Business Combinations

We record tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business combinations under the purchase method of accounting. Amounts paid for each acquisition are allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their fair values at the date of acquisition. We then allocate the purchase price in excess of net tangible assets acquired to identifiable intangible assets based on detailed valuations that use information and assumptions provided by management. We allocate any excess purchase price over the fair value of the net tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed to goodwill. If the fair value of the assets acquired exceeds the purchase price, the excess is recognized as a gain.

Significant management judgments and assumptions are required in determining the fair value of acquired assets and liabilities, particularly acquired intangible assets. The valuation of purchased intangible assets is based upon estimates of the future performance and cash flows from the acquired business. Each asset is measured at fair value from the perspective of a market participant. Critical estimates in valuing purchased technology and customer lists include future cash flows that we expect to generate from the acquired assets. If the subsequent actual results and updated projections of the underlying business activity change compared with the assumptions and projections used to develop these values, we could experience impairment charges which could be material. In addition, we have estimated the economic lives of certain acquired assets and these lives are used to calculate depreciation and amortization expense. If our estimates of the economic lives change, depreciation or amortization expenses could be accelerated or slowed.

If different assumptions are used, it could materially impact the purchase price allocation and adversely affect our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.

REVENUE RECOGNITION

We determine revenue recognition by:

• identifying the contract, or contracts, with the customer;
• identifying the performance obligations in the contract;
• determining the transaction price;
• allocating the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract; and
• recognizing revenue when, or as, we satisfy performance obligations by transferring the promised goods or services.

We recognize revenue in the amount that reflects the consideration we expect to receive in exchange for the services provided, sales of physical products or when the content is available for subscription on the digital platform or available on the point-of-sale for transactional and video on demand services which is when the control of the promised products and services is transferred to our customers and our performance obligations under the contract have been satisfied. Revenues that might be subject to various taxes are recorded net of transaction taxes assessed by governmental authorities, such as sales value-added taxes and other similar taxes.

Payment terms and conditions vary by customer and typically provide net 30-to-90 day terms. We do not adjust the promised amount of consideration for the effects of a significant financing component when we expect, at contract inception, that the period between our transfer of a promised product or service to our customer and payment for that product or service will be one year or less.

Depending upon the nature of the agreements with the platform and content providers, the fee rate that we earn varies. The Company’s performance obligations include the delivery of content for transactional, subscription and ad supported/free ad-supported streaming TV (“FAST”) on the digital platforms, and shipment of physical products. Revenue is recognized at the point in time when the performance obligation is satisfied, which is when the content is available for subscription on the digital platform, at the time of shipment for physical goods, or point-of-sale for transactional and VOD services as the control over the content or the physical title is transferred to the customer. The Company considers the delivery of content through various distribution channels to be a single performance obligation.

Revenue from the sale of physical goods is recognized after deducting reserves for sales returns and other allowances. Reserves for potential sales returns and other allowances are recorded based upon historical experience. If actual future returns and allowances differ from past experience, adjustments to our allowances may be required.

For the theatrical distribution of third-party feature movies and alternative content, distribution fee revenue and participation in box office receipts are recognized at the time a feature movie and alternative content are viewed. The Company may have the right to receive or bill a portion of the theatrical distribution fee in advance of the exhibition date, and therefore such amount is recorded as a receivable at the time of execution, and all related distribution revenue is deferred until the third-party feature movies’ or alternative content’s theatrical release date.

Advertising technology revenue is derived from two principal revenue streams: Ad Network revenue and Ad Serving revenue.

• For Ad Network revenue, at the beginning of each advertising campaign, the client signs a contract and or insertion order which stipulates the (i) length of the campaign, (ii) number of impressions purchased, and (iii) targeted locations/demographics. Impressions are counted each time a client’s advertising tag is rendered on a procured advertising platform. The transaction price for these impressions is determined upfront as a contracted cost per mille (“CPM”) rate. Revenue is recognized at a point in time when the billable impression is delivered, meaning the ad has been successfully served in line with the contract and measurement standards based on the agreed CPM.
• Ad serving software represents instances where clients use the Company’s system as a technology platform for managing and delivering their advertising content across designated media channels. The

customer signs a contract that grants them access to the “marketplace” and stipulates (i) length of contract and (ii) fees associated with their purchase of impressions. Terms are based on a fixed monthly fee and a usage-based pricing model that includes charges based on queries per second (QPS), as well as contractually specified CPM rates tied to agreed-upon impression volumes. The Company recognizes fixed monthly fee revenue over time as access is provided to the customer and at a point in time for usage-base revenue for amounts delivered in a given month.

Media services revenue is derived from quality control, packaging, and localization work performed on behalf of studios for platform distribution, as specified work and prices are set forth in purchase orders. The Company recognizes revenue from these services as the services are completed.

Principal Agent Considerations

We determine whether revenue should be reported on a gross or net basis based on each revenue stream. Key indicators that we use in evaluating gross versus net treatment include, but are not limited to, the following:

• which party is primarily responsible for fulfilling the promise to provide the specified good or service; and
• which party has discretion in establishing the price for the specified good or service.

Shipping and Handling

Shipping and handling costs are incurred to move physical goods to customers. We recognize all shipping and handling costs as an expense in direct operating expenses because we are responsible for delivery of the product to our customers prior to transfer of control to the customer.

Credit Losses

We maintain reserves for expected credit losses on accounts receivable. We review the composition of accounts receivable and analyze historical credit losses, customer concentrations, customer credit worthiness, current and forecasted economic trends and changes in customer payment patterns to evaluate the adequacy of this allowance.

Contract Assets and Liabilities

We generally record a receivable related to revenue or an unbilled revenue (contract asset) when we have an unconditional right to invoice and receive payment. Unbilled revenue includes an accrued revenue, the right to which has been earned at the period end based on completed performance. We record deferred revenue (contract liability) when cash payments are received or due in advance of our performance, even if the amounts are refundable. Deferred revenue includes payments related to the sale physical goods with future release dates or subscription dues paid in advance.

Deferred revenue that is short term in nature, carried a balance as of March 31, 2026 and 2025 of $0.1 million and $0.2 million, respectively. For the years ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the additions to our deferred revenue balance were primarily due to cash payments received or due in advance of satisfying performance obligations, while the reductions to our deferred revenue balance were primarily due to the recognition of revenue upon fulfillment of our performance obligations, both of which were in the ordinary course of business.

Participations and Royalties Payable

When we use third-parties to distribute company owned content, we record participations payable, which represent amounts owed to the distributor under revenue-sharing arrangements. When we provide content distribution services, we record accounts payable and accrued expenses to studios or content producers for royalties owed under licensing arrangements. We identify and record as a reduction to the liability any expenses that are to be reimbursed to us by such studios or content producers.

Results of Operations for the Fiscal Years Ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 (in thousands, except where noted below)

Revenues

For the year ended March 31, 2026, the Company's revenue declined by $12.4 million.

Streaming and digital revenue declined by $4.2 million, primarily due to the strong digital release of Terrifier 3, which generated $5.9 million in the prior period, partially offset by current year release of Return to Silent Hill, which generated $1.0 million in revenue.

Base distribution revenue decreased by $19.1 million, primarily due to the successful theatrical performance of Terrifier 3, which generated $23.1 million in revenue in the prior year, as well as $2.6 million from related physical media sales in the prior period. This decline was partially offset by current year theatrical revenue of $4.0 million from releases such as Toxic Avenger, Silent Night, Deadly Night and Return to Silent Hill.

The Company also added new revenue streams of Advertising technology and services, as well as Media Services through the acquisitions of IndiCue and Giant Worldwide during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026. These acquisitions contributed $11.6 million in revenue, representing 18% of total revenue.

Direct Operating Expenses

The decrease of $8.1 million in Direct Operating Expenses for the year ended March 31, 2026, primarily relates to lower royalty costs compared to the same period of 2025, which included $17 million royalty expenses for Terrifier 3. This was partially offset by increased payments due to supply partners of $6.4 million, as well as theatrical distribution fees related to current year releases, higher licensor costs, and the allowance applied against certain content advances.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

25

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the year ended March 31, 2026 increased by $15.6 million compared to the year ended March 31, 2025, primarily due to $7.1 million of higher marketing expenses associated with our increased number of theatrical offerings in fiscal year 2026. Additionally, $1.2 million of marketing expenses were included within Direct operating expenses during the prior year.

Corporate expenses increased by $2.8 million reflecting higher professional services and legal expenses associated with strategic business and content acquisitions. Compensation expenses increased by $2.8 million due to higher employee headcount. Other operating expenses increased by $1.9 million primarily due to higher administrative costs.

Depreciation and Amortization

Amortization increased by $2.4 million for the year ended March 31, 2026, compared to the year ended March 31, 2025, primarily due to increased capitalized content costs and internally developed software assets being placed into service.

Bargain purchase gain

For the year ended March 31, 2026, a bargain purchase gain was recognized related to the acquisition of Giant Worldwide, in the amount of $4.3 million. The bargain purchase was recognized as a result of the fair value of the assets acquired exceeding the consideration transferred, as a result of the seller's forced sale of Giant Worldwide, stemming from a bankruptcy-related proceeding.

Interest Expense

Interest expense decreased by $3.9 million to $0.5 million for the year ended March 31, 2026 primarily due to higher participation interest in the prior year related to the T3 Loan, which was obtained and repaid during the prior fiscal year, along with lower interest rates in the current fiscal year.

Income Tax (Benefit) Expense

For the year ended March 31, 2026, the Company had an income tax (benefit) of ($2.8) million, which represented a ($2.8) million release of the valuation allowance related to the IndiCue acquisition, a ($75) thousand deferred tax (benefit) related to changes in the Indian deferred tax asset, net of $25 thousand of current U.S. state income taxes and $43 thousand of current Indian income taxes.

For the year ended March 31, 2025, the Company had income tax expense of $106 thousand consisting of $62 thousand of current U.S. state income taxes, $51 thousand of current Indian income taxes, offset by the recognition of a $7 thousand deferred Indian tax benefit.

Adjusted EBITDA

We define Adjusted EBITDA to be earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, other income, net, stock-based compensation and expenses, merger and acquisition costs, restructuring, transition and acquisitions expense, net, goodwill impairment and non-recurring items.

Adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement of financial performance under GAAP and may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. We use Adjusted EBITDA as a financial metric to measure the financial performance of the business because management believes it provides additional information with respect to the performance of its fundamental business activities. For this reason, we believe Adjusted EBITDA will also be useful to others, including its stockholders, as a valuable financial metric.

We present Adjusted EBITDA because we believe that Adjusted EBITDA is a useful supplement to net (loss) income from continuing operations as an indicator of operating performance. We also believe that Adjusted EBITDA is a financial measure that is useful both to management and investors when evaluating our performance and comparing our performance with that of our competitors. We also use Adjusted EBITDA for planning purposes and to evaluate our financial performance because Adjusted EBITDA excludes certain incremental expenses or non-cash items, such as stock-based compensation charges, that we believe are not indicative of our ongoing operating performance.

We believe that Adjusted EBITDA is a performance measure and not a liquidity measure, and therefore a reconciliation between net loss from continuing operations and Adjusted EBITDA has been provided in the financial results. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to loss from operations or net loss from continuing operations as an indicator of performance or as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities as an indicator of cash flows, in each case as determined in accordance with GAAP, or as a measure of liquidity. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA does not take into account changes in certain assets and liabilities as well as interest and income taxes that can affect cash flows. We do not intend the presentation of these non-GAAP measures to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for results prepared in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP measures should be read only in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Following is the reconciliation of our consolidated net (loss) income to Adjusted EBITDA (in thousands):

(1) - Includes $383 thousand and $341 thousand of amortization included in direct operating expenses on our Consolidated Statements of Operations for the years ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

See Note 2 - Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies to our Consolidated Financial Statements included herein.

Cash Flow

Changes in our cash flows were as follows (in thousands):

As of March 31, 2026 and 2025, we had cash and cash equivalents of $3.4 million and $13.9 million, respectively.

Cashflows for the current fiscal year

For the year ended March 31, 2026, the change in net cash used in operating activities was $26.5 million, primarily driven by a net loss of $8.7 million, increases in working capital, and investments in content advances, partially offset by non-cash charges including depreciation and amortization and stock-based compensation.

Cash used in investing activities was $14.3 million, was primarily driven by business acquisitions and expenditures for long-lived assets.

Net cash provided by financing activities of $30.2 million was primarily attributable to borrowings under the Company's line of credit facility, proceeds from the issuance of convertible notes, warrant exercises and common stock issuances, partially offset by repayments under the line of credit facility, tax withholdings related to restricted stock units, debt financing fees and deferred acquisition consideration payments.

Cashflows for the previous fiscal year

For the year ended March 31, 2025, the change in net cash provided by operating activities was primarily driven by a net income of $3.8 million, increases from the Company's operating assets and liabilities ($7.0 million), and add-backs relating to non-cash items, particularly: (i) depreciation and amortization of $3.8 million, and (ii) stock-based compensation of $1.9 million.

Cash used in investing activities of $0.6 million were driven by the acquisition of long-lived assets, partially offset by cash received from the sale of equity investment securities in Metaverse, an investment formerly held by the Company.

Cash used in financing activities of $8.0 million was primarily due to the net $6.4 million repayments of the Line of Credit Facility, repayment of our $3.1 million T3 Loan (which had been obtained during the 2025 fiscal year), $0.4 million net payment of deferred acquisition consideration, $0.6 million final earnout payment and $0.2 million used to repurchase outstanding shares.

Contractual Obligations

The Company presents its recognized and unrecognized commitments in the notes to the Financial Statements, Note 8 - Commitments and Contingencies.

Seasonality

The timing of movie and streaming content releases can have a significant effect on our results of operations, and the results of one quarter are not necessarily indicative of results for the next quarter or any other quarter. While our business benefits from the winter holiday season, we believe the seasonality of the movie and streaming landscape, is becoming less pronounced as the motion picture studios are releasing movies somewhat more evenly throughout the year.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We are not a party to any off-balance sheet arrangements. In addition, as discussed further in Note 2 - Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Note 4 - Other Interests to the consolidated financial statements included in Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, we hold a 100% equity interest in CDF2 Holdings, which is an unconsolidated variable interest entity (“VIE”), which wholly owns CDF2; however, we are not the primary beneficiary of the VIE.

Impact of Inflation

The impact of inflation on our operations has not been significant to date. However, there can be no assurance that a sustained high rate of inflation in the future would not have an adverse impact on our operating results.

Definition and Limitations of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) are designed to reasonably ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The management of the Company, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in the Exchange Act), as of March 31, 2026. Based on such evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial and accounting officer have concluded that, as of the end of such period, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported, on a timely basis, and (ii) accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures in our internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2026.

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act). Management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the criteria set forth in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”). Our assessment of, and conclusion on, the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting did not include the internal controls of IndiCue, Inc., acquired on February 12, 2026 and Giant Worldwide, acquired on January 7, 2026, which are included in our consolidated financial statements since the date of acquisition and represented less than 29% of our total assets as of March 31, 2026, after excluding goodwill and intangible assets acquired, and 18% of our total revenues for the year ended March 31, 2026. Based on this evaluation, management has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of March 31, 2026.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2026 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting, except that we implemented changes in our royalty accrual estimation process, following the upgrade of certain accounting systems and the integration of acquired businesses into our accounting and financial reporting process.
