Dolphin Entertainment reported a strong improvement in 2025 results, though it remained unprofitable. Full-year revenue rose about 10% to $56.7 million from $51.7 million, driven by a particularly strong fourth quarter where revenue increased 27% year-over-year to $15.6 million.
Net loss for 2025 narrowed sharply to $3.1 million, compared with a $12.6 million loss in 2024, as operating loss was nearly breakeven at $0.04 million. Adjusted EBITDA improved to $2.9 million from $0.9 million, with fourth-quarter Adjusted EBITDA of $1.7 million versus a $0.5 million loss a year earlier.
The company highlighted expected future margin expansion helped by maturing bank debt, which is anticipated to reduce annual principal and interest by almost $2.2 million, and projected lease savings of about $1 million annually after major New York and Los Angeles leases end in 2026 and 2027.
