IZEA Worldwide, Inc. entered into a Rule 10b5-1 stock repurchase agreement with Ladenburg Thalmann to continue buying back its common stock under an existing share repurchase program.

IZEA Worldwide, Inc. reported weaker results for the quarter ended March 31, 2026 as it reorients toward higher-value enterprise customers. Revenue fell to $6.6 million from $8.0 million, an 18% decline, mainly due to reduced activity from non-core, lower-margin accounts and contract timing in several enterprise relationships.
Cost controls partly offset the revenue drop, but net loss widened to $0.8 million from $0.1 million, and Adjusted EBITDA declined to $(0.5) million, or (8.1)% of revenue. Managed Services Bookings were $6.3 million versus $7.5 million a year earlier, reflecting similar timing and mix effects.
The company ended the quarter with $46.5 million in cash and cash equivalents and no long-term debt, and continues to maintain a full valuation allowance against deferred tax assets. IZEA rebranded its technology platform as ZED, an AI-powered creator campaign operating system, which launched during the quarter but had not yet generated revenue. Management expects a full ZED rollout and its enterprise-focused strategy to support more profitable, though uneven, growth over the next year while current liquidity is viewed as sufficient for planned initiatives.
