• Fiscal 2027 is expected to be an investment year, with approximately CAD 30 million of planned spending on franchises, technology, infrastructure, and facilities; management therefore expects negative free cash flow despite positive cash generation before these investments.
• Fourth-quarter continuing-operations revenue fell 29% to CAD 55 million and adjusted EBITDA declined to negative CAD 4 million, pressured by lower content activity, reduced WildBrain CPLG agency revenue, receivable provisions, and higher franchise marketing costs.
