Newest figures come from the 10-Q for Q1 FY2027, filed Aug 14, 2026. Each column of the statement tables below links to the filing it was taken from, and every filing is listed on the PODC SEC filings page.
PodcastOne, Inc. (PODC) reported $62.8M in revenue over the twelve months to Jun 30, 2026, up 16.4% from the prior twelve months. This page shows its income statement, balance sheet, cash flow statement, and key financial ratios. View 4 years of annual fundamentals and quarterly data, with year-over-year growth rates and compound annual growth rates (CAGR). All figures are derived from SEC filings (10-K and 10-Q reports).
Growth is returning cash flow, but thin margins and a weakening short-term liquidity cushion still keep profits negative.
In FY2026, a net loss of$2.6M accompanied operating cash flow of$2.5M , so reported cash generation did not depend on accounting profit. With capital expenditures of only$22K , nearly all operating cash flow remained free cash flow, pointing to non-cash or working-capital effects and limited reinvestment rather than a profitable operating model.

Current ratio fell to 0.9x from 1.2x, leaving short-term obligations slightly above current assets and reducing financial flexibility. Liabilities reached

PodcastOne, Inc. (PODC) scores 38 out of 100 on our Financial Health Score, indicating weak standing within its emerging companies peer group. The score is a 0-100 composite of six dimensions (Cash Runway, Dilution, R&D Intensity, Revenue Progress, Burn Trend, Balance Sheet), each ranked as a percentile relative to companies in the same scoring family (banks against banks, REITs against REITs, and so on) rather than across all industries. It rates the quality of the business, not whether the stock is fairly priced, and is not financial advice. Learn more in our complete guide to financial health indicators.
