PodcastOne, Inc. reports rapid top-line growth but continues to operate at a loss with going-concern risks. Revenue reached $61.7 million for the year ended March 31 2026, up from $52.1 million in 2025, an 18% increase driven by higher advertising activity and more shows.
Podcast downloads grew to 228,770,500 from 204,709,000, a 12% rise, and average monthly listeners reached 5.9 million in the March 2026 quarter.

Management highlights substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern and notes reliance on parent LiveOne, Inc., including LiveOne’s $16.8 million Original Issue Discount Senior Secured Convertible Debentures that are secured by assets and include restrictive covenants. Additional risks include potential Nasdaq delisting and penny-stock trading, intense competition for listeners, advertisers and talent, and rising content costs from minimum guarantees and revenue shares.
