PodcastOne entered 2026 with momentum, reporting strong fourth-quarter results that highlight its diverse revenue streams.
Revenue for the fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2025, climbed 25% year-over-year to a record $15.9 million, while earnings surged 516% to $2.8 million, marking another quarterly high for the podcast network.
Ad sales continue to be a major driver. A three-year agreement with Amazon-owned Art19 includes a $15 million minimum revenue guarantee, and company leaders now expect the partnership to generate more than $20 million annually.
“We’re pleased with PodcastOne’s continued performance this quarter, driven by strong subscriber growth, strategic partnerships, and the continued success of our flagship shows,” President Kit Gray said.
With three quarters complete in its fiscal year, the company is now pacing for record annual results. Revenue stands at $46 million so far, 21% ahead of last year, while earnings have reached $4.5 million, a 421% increase.
Based on current trends, full-year guidance has been raised to $58 million to $60 million in revenue and $5 million to $6 million in earnings.
Additionally, PodcastOne says it has added 25 new shows to its stable so far this year. Three of those shows — Varnamtown, Vigilante, and The Opportunist — have been optioned as TV shows.
“The acquisition of ‘Varnamtown’ by Paramount underscores the value of our content and the strength of our network, while our ongoing investments in technology and distribution position us well for future growth,” Gray added. “We remain focused on delivering compelling programming and creating meaningful opportunities for our talent and audience alike.”
