Key Financial Performance
Revenue Total revenue for full year 2025 was $10.7 million, an increase of 36% from $7.9 million in 2024. This growth was driven by the full year contribution of Eastern Standard and ddsrank.com.
Revenue (B2B segment) Revenue from services increased 62% to $7.4 million from $4.7 million in 2024. This growth was primarily driven by the full year contribution of Eastern Standard, which contributed approximately $3.3 million in 2025 revenue, and a contribution of approximately $91,000 from ddsrank.com.
Revenue (B2C segment) Revenue from product sales increased 5% to $3.3 million from $3.2 million in 2024. This reflects the Proofread Anywhere platform dynamics and was partially offset by the absence of WPFolio revenue following its sale in Q4 2024.
Gross Profit Gross profit was $6.4 million, representing a gross margin of approximately 60%, up from 58% in 2024. This improvement reflects the increasing weight of service-based B2B revenues.
Operating Expenses Total operating expenses were $9.3 million compared to $7.1 million in 2024. The increase reflects the full year inclusion of Eastern Standard and SG&A costs, as well as professional fees of approximately $1.2 million, including $175,000 in one-time costs related to audits.
Net Loss Net loss for the full year 2025 was $2.6 million, which includes $2.4 million in noncash expenses, a $1.1 million noncash gain on the change in fair value of derivative liabilities, and a $229,000 noncash loss on the change in fair value of digital asset holdings.
Operating Loss Excluding noncash expenses, the operating loss improved from $1.42 million in 2024 to $880,000 in 2025, a 38% improvement year-over-year.
EBITDA EBITDA for 2025 was positive $151,000 compared to negative $588,000 in 2024.
Portfolio Operating Profit Portfolio operating profit grew from approximately $600,000 annually in 2023 to approximately $1.8 million annually by the end of 2025. This reflects the health and trajectory of the businesses.
Cash As of December 31, 2025, cash was $2.17 million compared to $477,000 at the end of 2024. This improvement reflects proceeds from the convertible note facility, partially offset by approximately $500,000 in legacy debt retired during the year and ongoing operating costs.
Digital Asset Holdings Digital Asset Holdings had a total fair value of approximately $2.3 million as of year-end, consisting of 5.32 Bitcoin, 318.33 Ethereum (288 staked), and 6,786 Solana (all staked). These holdings generate staking rewards.
Debt Total outstanding indebtedness was approximately $7.8 million, including $6 million drawn under the senior secured convertible note facility maturing November 2027. Approximately $500,000 in legacy debt was retired in 2025, resulting in $150,000 in annual savings on interest payments.

Risk or Challenges
Parent Company Cost Gap: The company has not yet achieved self-funding status, as the portfolio's operating profit does not fully cover the parent company's costs. Despite improvements, there remains a gap that needs to be closed.
Advertising Spend Efficiency: In the B2C segment, Proofread Anywhere faced diminishing returns on advertising spend in the second half of 2025, leading to a deliberate pullback that compressed revenue.
Impairment Charges: The company recorded impairment charges of approximately $440,000 related to AllThingsDogs.com and ddsrank.com, indicating challenges in these specific businesses.
Debt Obligations: The company has significant debt obligations, including $7.8 million in total outstanding indebtedness, which could impact financial flexibility and increase interest burden.
Regulatory and Audit Costs: The company incurred approximately $175,000 in one-time costs related to reaudit and historical audits, which, while not recurring, highlight regulatory and compliance challenges.
AI-Driven Market Changes: AI is driving changes in client expectations for agencies, requiring adaptation to deliver more value at lower costs. Agencies that fail to adapt may face competitive disadvantages.
Revenue Concentration Risk: The company is evaluating acquisitions to reduce revenue concentration risk, indicating current vulnerabilities in revenue diversification.

Guidance & Outlook
2026 Priorities: The company aims to generate more cash flow from the existing portfolio, resume acquisitions that immediately add to cash flow, and close the gap between portfolio distributions and parent company costs to achieve self-funding.
Cost Management: Nonrecurring expenses from 2025, including $175,000 in reaudit costs, will not repeat. Retirement of legacy debt will save approximately $150,000 annually in interest. Parent company costs entering 2026 are materially lower.
Portfolio Cash Generation: The Centralized Agency Co sales and marketing initiative is expected to drive revenue growth across the agency platform. A 10% increase in agency revenue would bring the company close to profitability, while a 20-30% increase would ensure self-funding.
Selective Acquisitions: The company plans to pursue acquisitions that add immediate cash flow, focusing on businesses with consistent cash flow, no integration complexity, and financing that does not significantly increase interest burden. The current acquisition pipeline represents approximately $5 million in potential acquired EBITDA.
B2B Segment Strategy: The company is consolidating its six agencies into a centralized structure with shared sales and marketing to improve efficiency and accountability. AI tools are being utilized to enhance efficiency and fulfillment, aligning with client demands for more value at lower costs.
B2C Segment Strategy: Focus remains on improving profitability of existing businesses. Proofread Anywhere is tracking ahead of Q4 2025 performance in Q1 2026 due to redeployed ad spend. Vital Reaction is consolidating media buying and marketing efforts with Proofread Anywhere to reduce costs while maintaining reach.
Market Trends and AI Integration: AI tools are being leveraged to improve media buying, ad creative, and operational efficiency across both B2B and B2C segments. This is expected to be a meaningful lever for growth in 2026.
Convertible Note Facility: The $300 million convertible note facility secured in November 2025 provides long-term capital for acquisitions, operational improvements, and balance sheet diversification. Approximately $6 million has been drawn to date.

Key Q&A
Q:What is the current state of negotiations with noteholders, and what are the potential remedies and worst-case scenarios regarding dilution?
A:Negotiations are ongoing, and the company is limited in what it can disclose. Once negotiations are finalized and any waiver is signed, an 8-K will be filed. The potential impact on dilution could involve a slightly larger discount to the VWAP calculation, moving from 97% to 85%.
Q:Can we expect another acquisition similar to Eastern Standard in the near future?
A:The company is targeting acquisitions of a similar size to Eastern Standard, as it significantly impacted financial performance. Smaller acquisitions may be considered if they align well with existing operations and do not pose integration risks. The focus is on opportunities that make sense strategically.
Q:Are there potential synergies and cost savings from consolidating the five B2B agencies, including Eastern Standard?
A:Yes, consolidating the agencies aims to achieve cost savings, improve focus, and enhance sales efforts and growth. Eastern Standard has contributed strong leadership, which benefits the wider portfolio. Additionally, AI presents opportunities for cost savings, which the company is actively exploring.
Q:If noncash items are stripped out, was the net loss in 2025 better compared to 2024?
A:Yes, the net loss improved year-on-year when noncash items are excluded. This was detailed in the earnings release issued shortly after the K.
Q:How much time, effort, and money do the company's new ventures (e.g., Pace, Parlance, DealPipe) require?
A:The time, effort, and cost vary by initiative. Parlance required minimal time, while Pace involved a collaborative sprint over a few weeks. DealPipe was a joint venture and required less time. The company only launches ventures if they are more advantageous than acquisitions, considering financials, opportunity costs, and focus.
Q:Review of Unclear Management Responses
A:Management avoided providing specific details about the ongoing negotiations with noteholders, citing limitations on disclosing non-public information. They also did not provide precise figures or timelines for potential acquisitions or cost savings from consolidations, relying on general statements and future updates.
