Fourth Quarter & Fiscal Year 2026 Financial Results
| Summary Financials | Q4’26 | Q4’25 | Change | FY26 | FY25 | Change |
| Total Revenue | $47.5 | $41.4 | 15% | $175.7 | $158.7 | 11% |
| Music Publishing Revenue | $30.9 | $27.9 | 11% | $116.8 | $107.4 | 9% |
| Recorded Music Revenue | $15.2 | $12.0 | 27% | $51.5 | $44.3 | 16% |
| Operating Income | $11.8 | $10.4 | 13% | $38.2 | $35.1 | 9% |
| OIBDA | $19.9 | $17.2 | 16% | $69.0 | $61.4 | 12% |
| Net Income | $4.1 | $2.7 | 49% | $7.8 | $7.7 | 1% |
| Adjusted EBITDA | $21.2 | $18.2 | 16% | $73.6 | $65.7 | 12% |
| (Table Notes: $ in millions; Quarters ended March 31st; Unaudited) |
Total Revenue in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026 increased 15% to $47.5 million, compared to $41.4 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025. The increase was spread across both Music Publishing and Recorded Music, which saw growth of 11% and 27%, respectively. Total Revenue for fiscal 2026 increased 11% to $175.7 million, compared to $158.7 million in fiscal 2025. The year-over-year improvement was driven by the 9% growth of the Music Publishing segment and the 16% growth of the Recorded Music segment, inclusive of the acquisitions of various catalogs.
Operating Income in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026 was $11.8 million, an increase of 13% compared to Operating Income of $10.4 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025. OIBDA in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026 increased 16% to $19.9 million, compared to $17.2 million in the prior year quarter. Adjusted EBITDA in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026 was $21.2 million, compared to $18.2 million last year. The increases in Operating Income, OIBDA, and Adjusted EBITDA in the fourth quarter were primarily driven by strong revenue results in both segments. The gain in all three metrics was partially offset by higher administration expenses, while the increase in operating income was also partially offset by higher amortization and depreciation expense due to the acquisition of catalogs.
Operating Income in fiscal 2026 was $38.2 million, an increase of 9% compared to Operating Income of $35.1 million in fiscal 2025. OIBDA in fiscal 2026 increased 12% to $69.0 million, compared to $61.4 million in the prior year. Adjusted EBITDA in fiscal 2026 increased 12% to $73.6 million, compared to $65.7 million last year. The increase in Operating Income, OIBDA, and Adjusted EBITDA for the year was driven by revenue growth and lower cost of revenue as a percentage of revenues. See below for calculations and reconciliations of OIBDA and Adjusted EBITDA to Operating Income and Net Income, respectively.
Net Income in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026 was $4.1 million, or $0.07 per share, compared to $2.7 million, or $0.04 per share, in the year-ago quarter. The increase in Net Income for the fourth quarter was driven by higher operating income and the gain on fair value of interest rate swaps, offset by higher interest expense and loss on foreign exchange. Net Income in fiscal year 2026 was $7.8 million, or $0.13 per diluted share, compared to $7.7 million, or $0.12 per share in fiscal year 2025. The year-over-year increase in Net Income was largely due to an increase in operating income, as well as a decrease in the loss on fair value of interest rate swaps, partially offset by increases in interest expense and income tax expense.
Fourth Quarter & Fiscal Year 2026 Segment Review
| Music Publishing | Q4’26 | Q4’25 | Change | FY26 | FY25 | Change |
| Revenue by Type | | | | | | |
| Digital | $16.9 | $13.6 | 24% | $64.7 | $60.5 | 7% |
| Performance | $5.5 | $6.5 | (16)% | $24.0 | $21.1 | 14% |
| Synchronization | $5.8 | $5.5 | 6% | $19.1 | $18.2 | 5% |
| Mechanical | $1.3 | $1.2 | 16% | $4.2 | $3.9 | 9% |
| Other | $1.4 | $1.2 | 20% | $4.8 | $3.7 | 30% |
| Total Revenue | $30.9 | $27.9 | 11% | $116.8 | $107.4 | 9% |
| OIBDA | $11.0 | $10.5 | 5% | $40.9 | $37.3 | 9% |
| (Table Notes: $ in millions; Quarters ended March 31st; Unaudited) |
Music Publishing Revenue in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026 was $30.9 million, an increase of 11% compared to $27.9 million in last fiscal year’s fourth quarter. The increase was largely driven by higher Digital revenue and Synchronization revenue, which was partially offset by lower Performance revenue. Music Publishing Revenue in fiscal 2026 was $116.8 million, representing an increase of 9% compared to $107.4 million in fiscal 2025. Growth for the year was driven by Digital revenue as well as double-digit gains in Performance and Other revenue, while all other revenue types grew but to a lesser extent.
In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026, Music Publishing OIBDA increased 5% to $11.0 million, compared to $10.5 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025. During fiscal 2026, Music Publishing OIBDA increased 9% to $40.9 million, compared to $37.3 million in fiscal 2025. Music Publishing OIBDA margin in the fourth quarter decreased from 37% to 36%. Music Publishing OIBDA margin in fiscal 2026 was unchanged at 35%. The decrease in the fourth quarter 2026 OIBDA margins reflected higher administrative costs including professional fees incurred in connection with our acquisition of Viral Wave.
| Recorded Music | Q4’26 | Q4’25 | Change | FY26 | FY25 | Change |
| Revenue by Type | | | | | | |
| Digital | $10.3 | $8.8 | 17% | $36.4 | $30.7 | 18% |
| Physical | $1.8 | $1.3 | 35% | $6.1 | $6.2 | (1)% |
| Neighboring Rights | $1.4 | $1.1 | 18% | $4.7 | $4.2 | 11% |
| Synchronization | $1.7 | $0.7 | 161% | $4.3 | $3.1 | 39% |
| Total Revenue | $15.2 | $12.0 | 27% | $51.5 | $44.3 | 16% |
| OIBDA | $8.7 | $6.5 | 34% | $26.9 | $22.7 | 18% |
| (Table Notes: $ in millions; Quarters ended March 31st; Unaudited) |
Recorded Music Revenue in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026 was $15.2 million, an increase of 27% compared to $12.0 million in last fiscal year’s fourth quarter. Recorded Music Revenue in fiscal 2026 was $51.5 million, an increase of 16% compared to $44.3 million in fiscal 2025. Growth in both periods was driven by a double-digit improvement within Digital revenues and strong growth in Synchronization revenues, which were partially offset by lower Physical revenue in fiscal 2026.
In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026, Recorded Music OIBDA increased 34% to $8.7 million, versus $6.5 million in the year-ago period. During fiscal 2026, Recorded Music OIBDA increased 18% to $26.9 million, compared to $22.7 million in fiscal 2025. Recorded Music OIBDA margin in the fourth quarter increased from 54% to 57%, and in fiscal 2026 increased from 51% to 52%. The increase in the fourth quarter and fiscal 2026 OIBDA margins reflected an increase in revenue as well as lower cost of revenue as a percentage of revenues and improved operating leverage as revenues increased.
Balance Sheet and Liquidity
During fiscal 2026, cash provided by operating activities was $50.1 million, an increase of $4.9 million compared to the same period last fiscal year. The increase in cash provided by operating activities was primarily attributable to an increase in earnings and cash provided by working capital.
As of March 31, 2026, Reservoir had cash and cash equivalents of $25.9 million and $91.2 million available for borrowing under its revolving credit facility, for total available liquidity of $117.1 million. Total debt was $455.7 million (net of $3.1 million of deferred financing costs) and Net Debt was $429.8 million (defined as total debt, less cash and equivalents and deferred financing costs). This compares to cash and cash equivalents of $21.4 million and $58.2 million available for borrowing under its revolving credit facility, for total available liquidity of $79.6 million as of March 31, 2025. Total debt was $388.1 million (net of $3.7 million of deferred financing costs) and Net Debt was $366.7 million as of March 31, 2025.

Supplemental Disclosures Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release includes certain financial information, such as OIBDA, OIBDA margin, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Net Debt, which has not been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Reservoir’s management uses these non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate Reservoir’s operations, measure its performance and make strategic decisions. Reservoir believes that the use of these non-GAAP financial measures provides useful information to investors and others in understanding Reservoir’s results of operations and trends in the same manner as Reservoir’s management and in evaluating Reservoir’s financial measures as compared to the financial measures of other similar companies, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures. However, these non-GAAP financial measures are subject to inherent limitations as they reflect the exercise of judgments by Reservoir’s management about which items are excluded or included in determining these non-GAAP financial measures and, therefore, should not be considered as a substitute for net income, operating income or any other operating performance measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Using such non-GAAP financial measures in isolation to analyze Reservoir’s business would have material limitations because the calculations are based on the subjective determination of Reservoir’s management regarding the nature and classification of events and circumstances. In addition, although other companies in Reservoir’s industry may report measures titled OIBDA, OIBDA margin, Adjusted EBITDA, and Net Debt, or similar measures, such non-GAAP financial measures may be calculated differently from how Reservoir calculates such non-GAAP financial measures, which reduces their overall usefulness as comparative measures. Because of these limitations, such non-GAAP financial measures should be considered alongside other financial performance measures and other financial results presented in accordance with GAAP. You can find the reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the nearest comparable GAAP measures in the tables below.
OIBDA
Reservoir evaluates operating performance based on several factors, including its primary financial measure of operating income before non-cash depreciation of tangible assets and non-cash amortization of intangible assets (“OIBDA”). Reservoir considers OIBDA to be an important indicator of the operational strengths and performance of its businesses and believes this non-GAAP financial measure provides useful information to investors because it removes the significant impact of amortization from Reservoir’s results of operations. However, a limitation of the use of OIBDA as a performance measure is that it does not reflect the periodic costs of certain capitalized tangible and intangible assets used in generating revenues in Reservoir’s businesses and other non-operating income (loss). Accordingly, OIBDA should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, operating income, net income attributable to us and other measures of financial performance reported in accordance with GAAP. In addition, our definition of OIBDA may differ from similarly titled measures used by other companies. OIBDA Margin is defined as OIBDA as a percentage of revenue.
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA
EBITDA is defined as earnings (net income or loss) before net interest expense, income tax (benefit) expense, non-cash depreciation of tangible assets and non-cash amortization of intangible assets and is used by management to measure operating performance of the business. Adjusted EBITDA, in addition to adjusting net income to exclude income tax expense, interest expense and depreciation and amortization, further adjusts net income by excluding items or expenses such as, among others, (1) any non-cash charges (including any impairment charges and loss on early extinguishment of debt and to write-down an equity investment to its estimated fair value), (2) any net gain or loss on foreign exchange, (3) any net gain or loss resulting from interest rate swaps, (4) equity-based compensation expense and (5) certain unusual or non-recurring items.
Adjusted EBITDA is a key measure used by Reservoir’s management to understand and evaluate operating performance, generate future operating plans, and make strategic decisions regarding the allocation of capital. However, certain limitations on the use of Adjusted EBITDA include, among others, (1) it does not reflect the periodic costs of certain capitalized tangible and intangible assets used in generating revenue for Reservoir’s business, (2) it does not reflect the significant interest expense or cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on Reservoir’s indebtedness and (3) it does not reflect every cash expenditure, future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments. In particular, Adjusted EBITDA measure adds back certain non-cash, unusual or non-recurring charges that are deducted in calculating net income; however, these are expenses that may recur, vary greatly and are difficult to predict. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA is not the same as net income or cash flow provided by operating activities as those terms are defined by GAAP and does not necessarily indicate whether cash flows will be sufficient to fund cash needs.
Net Debt
Reservoir defines Net Debt as total debt, less cash and equivalents and deferred financing costs.
