Exhibit 99.1
The Marygold Companies Reports Financial Results
For Fiscal Year and Fourth Quarter Ended June 30, 2026
San Clemente, Calif., September 18, 2026 – The Marygold Companies, Inc. (the “Company”) (NYSE American: MGLD), a diversified global holding firm with a focus on financial services, today reported financial results for the fiscal year and fourth quarter ended June 30, 2026.
Revenue for fiscal 2026 grew 8% to $25.3 million, from $23.4 million for fiscal 2025. The Company narrowed its net loss to $4.4 million, or a net loss of $0.10 per share, from a net loss of $5.8 million, or a net loss of $0.14 per share, for the prior fiscal year.
For the fourth quarter ended June 30, 2026, revenue increased 26% to $6.9 million, from $5.5 million for the year-ago quarter. The Company’s net loss was $3.7 million, equal to a net loss of $0.09 per share, versus a net loss of $1.5 million, equal to a net loss of $0.04 per share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2025. Marygold’s net loss for the most recent fourth quarter primarily reflected the write-off of intangible assets of $2.7 million resulting from losses incurred by the Company’s UK financial services business and the impairment of a certain illiquid investment totaling $0.9 million.
At the close of fiscal 2026, stockholders’ equity totaled $19.2 million, compared with $23.0 million at the close of fiscal 2025. Total assets at the 2026 fiscal year-end amounted to $24.0 million, versus $30.4 million last year. The Company had cash and cash equivalents of $2.9 million at the end of fiscal 2026, compared with $5.0 million at the end of fiscal 2025.
“Our largest operating unit, USCF Investments, delivered strong growth in fiscal 2026, with revenue increasing 23%, fueled by a 41% rise in average assets under management (AUM.) Average AUM increased to $4.1 billion for the year, up from $2.9 billion in the prior fiscal year, driven primarily by heightened energy-related commodity prices amid ongoing geopolitical uncertainty,” said David Neibert, Chief Operations Officer.
“While higher shipping and raw material costs weighed on margins across our consumer-facing subsidiaries, operational improvements helped to lower overall losses globally. Leading the way domestically was Original Sprout, which achieved 13% revenue growth and a return to profitability after we successfully transformed our sales strategy to align with changing customer shopping preferences,” Neibert added.
Nicholas Gerber, Chief Executive Officer, said, “Fiscal 2026 was a year of purposeful transformation for the Company. We made disciplined, strategic decisions to strengthen our foundation, concentrate resources on our core fund management businesses, and position the company for long-term success. As part of this process, we designated our New Zealand subsidiaries as discontinued operations, meaning we have put them up for sale, while maintaining operational support throughout the transition. We sold our Canadian security business at the start of the year, and we made the painful decision to pause our fintech operations both in the U.S. and the U.K. While the changes we made resulted in substantial non-cash write-offs that produced an operating loss for the year, we’re now positioned to operate with less overhead and expect to be on a path to profitability in the coming fiscal year. We are committed to taking the right actions now in order to secure a return for our shareholders in the long-term.”
