Destiny Media Technologies reported essentially flat revenue but a much larger loss for the quarter ended February 28, 2026. Service revenue was $1,003,109, down slightly from $1,018,972 a year earlier, as lower premium pricing from a new long-term major-label agreement was partly offset by growth in independent customers and modest MTR™ revenue.
Gross margin slipped to 83.2% from 85.3% due to higher hosting and processing costs tied to new platform features. Operating expenses rose 19.3% to $1,405,340, driven mainly by higher wages and benefits, including a one-time employee-related charge of $244,125, and reduced capitalization of development costs. Net loss increased to $566,310 from $302,094.
For the first six months, revenue was $2,246,248 and net loss was $482,658, compared with $2,245,729 and $183,954 a year earlier. Adjusted EBITDA turned negative at $(150,097) for the six months. The company ended the period with $1,151,271 in cash and cash equivalents and working capital of $1,446,468. Destiny remains highly dependent on a single major customer, which represented 45% of quarterly revenue and 68.5% of trade receivables.

Destiny Media Technologies reported Q1 2026 revenue of $1,243,139, up 1.3% from the prior-year quarter, with gross margin at 85.4% versus 87.3% a year ago. Service revenue growth came mainly from more independent label customers in North America and contractual indexation under a major label agreement, partly offset by softer international markets.
Operating expenses rose 2.3% to $983,349, driven by currency effects and higher depreciation from previously capitalized software, while sales and marketing costs declined after a restructuring. Net income was $83,652, down from $118,140, but earnings per share held at $0.01. Operating cash flow strengthened to $298,600, lifting cash and cash equivalents to $1,362,500 and working capital to $1,831,647.
The company remains highly dependent on a single major customer, which contributed 43.7% of revenue and 60.9% of trade receivables in the quarter.

This extension is described as the longest term agreed so far and the first to build in an annual inflation adjustment over multiple years.
Destiny Media Technologies (DSNY) reported modest growth but weaker profitability for the year ended August 31, 2025. Service revenue rose 2.3% to $4,524,448, driven by a 6.8% increase from major label customers, while independent label revenue fell 3.4% as larger independents spent less per campaign. Gross margin remained high at 84.8%, but operating expenses rose 20.0%, including higher non-cash amortization, MTR™ infrastructure costs, and one-time litigation expenses.
The company swung to a net loss of $637,877 from prior-year net income of $111,758, and Adjusted EBITDA declined to $202,276 from $577,284.
