Three months ended June 30, 2026 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025
Revenues, net. Revenues decreased $1.3 million, or 5.29%, to $23.3 million during the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $24.6 million during the three months ended June 30, 2025. Revenue in the United States increased $0.2 million and international revenue decreased $1.5 million during the three months ended June 30, 2026 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025. The decrease primarily reflected the impact of changes in our marketing strategy, continued competition for consumer spending and engagement across the broader SVOD industry, and challenging macroeconomic conditions.
Cost of revenues. Cost of revenues increased $0.1 million or 4.1% to $3.4 million during the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $3.3 million during the three months ended June 30, 2025. Gross profit margin declined during the three months ended June 30, 2026 to 85.3% from 86.7% for the three months ended June 30, 2025. The decrease was primarily attributable to lower revenue while content-related costs remained relatively consistent.

Selling and operating expenses. Selling and operating expenses increased to $21.6 million during the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $20.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, which is primarily due to change in marketing strategy. As a percentage of net revenues, selling and operating expenses increased to 92.6% for the three months ended June 30, 2026 compared to 83.8% for the three months ended June 30, 2025.
Corporate, general and administration expenses. Corporate, general and administration expenses decreased $1.4 million to $1.5 million for three months ended June 30, 2026 from $2.9 million for three months ended June 30, 2025. As a percentage of net revenues, these expenses decreased to 6.5% for the three months ended June 30, 2026 from 11.8% for the three months ended June 30, 2025. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in incentive compensation during the three months ended June 30, 2025.
Six months ended June 30, 2026 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2025

Year Ended December 31, 2025 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 2024
Revenues, net increased $9.7 million, or 10.9%, to $99.0 million during 2025, compared to $89.3 million during 2024. This was primarily driven by an increase in member count as well as an increase in Average Revenue Per User (“ARPU”).
Cost of revenues increased $0.4 million, or 3.2%, to $12.8 million during 2025 from $12.4 million during 2024, with gross profit margin of 87.1% in the current year compared to 86.1% in 2024. The increase in the cost of revenues is primarily related to timing of media library amortization. Gross profit margin increased during 2025 from 2024 primarily due to improvements in ARPU.
20
Selling and operating expenses increased $7.1 million, or 9.5%, to $81.9 million during 2025 from $74.8 million during 2024 and, as a percentage of revenues, decreased to 82.7% during 2025 from 83.8% during 2024. The increase was driven primarily by an increase in marketing expense.
Corporate, general and administration expenses increased by $1.6 million, or 20.5%, to $9.4 million during 2025 up from $7.8 million during 2024 and, as a percentage of net revenue, increased to 9.5% during 2025 from 8.7% during 2024. The increase was primarily driven by legal fees, customer acquisition costs and higher compensation costs during 2025.
Income tax expense (benefit) reflects a current year provision of $0.2 million compared to the prior year provision of $(0.0) million from income taxes due to an increase in the current and deferred tax liability.
