The Company's financial results for the quarter and fiscal year reflect increases in revenue, direct operating margin, and net income when compared to the prior year quarter and fiscal year听reflecting growth across all of the Company's key lines of business and the continued ancillary revenue contribution of Terrifier 3, the Company's breakout horror film success, which was the biggest unrated film release of all time.
Based on our ability to achieve outstanding box office results with Terrifier 3 by utilizing our unique ecosystem of new media assets to spend a fraction of what other studios would have spent to promote and market the movie, we continue to build a slate of additional wide release films that we believe can provide a strong and ongoing source of profits for the Company. We have already announced that we are releasing The Toxic Avenger, produced by major studio Legendary Films (Dune, Godzilla x Kong, etc.) on August 29, 2025, and then Silent Night, Deadly Night, a re-interpretation of the classic controversial horror film, on December 12, 2025. Next will be Return to Silent Hill, the latest film installment of the enormously successful video game franchise, on January 23, 2026. We will also be releasing Wolf Creek: Legacy, the third installment of the classic Australian Outback horror/thriller film, in 2026. In addition, based on the results of Terrifier 2 and Terrifier 3, other major studios continue to utilize our new media ecosystem to market their releases, emphasizing the impact our unique and innovative marketing approach has had on the industry.

Management Commentary
Chris McGurk, Cineverse Chairman and CEO, stated: "We had another extremely strong quarter: We posted significant gains in revenues, adjusted EBITDA and net income, all exceeding our analyst's consensus guidance. This was driven by growth across all of our key lines of business and the continued strong contribution of Terrifier 3, the most successful unrated film release of all time, in the ancillary distribution markets. Our balance sheet remains very strong, with almost
"Importantly, we also recently implemented a Company-wide reorganization to focus senior management resources on two of the most important growth areas for the Company. First, Tony Huidor is now President of Technology and Chief Product Officer. This move was designed to focus all of Tony's talent and experience in technology and business development against rapidly building our听technology business, with a focus on MatchpointTM licensing, and the development and sales of new AI based products such as cineSearch, our industry leading AI search tool that we developed with Google. Tony is also tasked with not only keeping the Company at the forefront of industry AI innovation, but also ensuring that we become the first truly AI-forward entertainment studio in every process across the entire Company."
"Second, we also reorganized our film division. Yolanda Macias is now the company's Chief Motion Pictures Officer. In this role, Yolanda will focus all of her expertise and experience to leverage the success of Terrifier 2 and Terrifier 3, and build a wide release slate of movies that can successfully follow the Terrifier blueprint. She has already achieved great success based on the high potential slate of franchise properties now in our release lineup. We think this business will be a major potential source of value creation going forward."
Erick Opeka, Cineverse President and Chief Strategy Officer, stated: "This quarter reflects the continued evolution of Cineverse into a platform-first entertainment company. We delivered strong performance across our SVOD and FAST streaming businesses, driven by subscriber growth from the Cineverse Amazon launch, and the ongoing success of Screambox following the release of Terrifier 3. Our podcast network also expanded with the launch of WITZ, while FAST viewership climbed internationally across key titles and channels. On the technology front, we are seeing strong early traction for cineSearch and Matchpoint Dispatch, particularly among studios and OEMs looking to automate and streamline their operations. Looking ahead, we are focused on becoming the first truly AI-native entertainment studio, with AI playing a critical role, not just in distribution and marketing, but in development and production as well. We are also exploring emerging new formats like microdramas that we believe represent the next generation of storytelling. These innovations are designed to meet the changing ways fans discover, consume, and engage with content."

Adjusted EBITDA
We define Adjusted EBITDA as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation expense, merger and acquisition costs, restructuring, transition and acquisitions expense, net, goodwill impairment and certain other items.
Adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement of financial performance under GAAP and may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. We use Adjusted EBITDA as a financial metric to measure the financial performance of the business, because management believes it provides additional information with respect to the performance of its fundamental business activities. For this reason, we believe Adjusted EBITDA will also be useful to others, including our stockholders, as a valuable financial metric.
We present Adjusted EBITDA because we believe that Adjusted EBITDA is a useful supplement to net income (loss) from continuing operations as an indicator of operating performance. We also believe that Adjusted EBITDA is a financial measure that is useful both to management and investors when evaluating our performance and comparing our performance with that of our competitors. We also use Adjusted EBITDA for planning purposes, and to evaluate our financial performance because Adjusted EBITDA excludes certain incremental expenses or non-cash items, such as stock-based compensation charges, that we believe are not indicative of our ongoing operating performance.
We believe that Adjusted EBITDA is a performance measure and not a liquidity measure, and therefore a reconciliation between net income (loss) from operations and Adjusted EBITDA has been provided in the financial results. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) from operations as an indicator of performance, or as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities as an indicator of cash flows, in each case as determined in accordance with GAAP, or as a measure of liquidity. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA does not take into account changes in certain assets and liabilities as well as interest and income taxes that can affect cash flows. We do not intend the presentation of these non-GAAP measures to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for results prepared in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP measures should be read only in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP.
Following is the reconciliation of our consolidated net income (loss) to Adjusted EBITDA (in thousands):
