Thank you. Good morning everyone. Thank you for joining our 2025 year-end earnings call. I wanted to start by thanking the entire Tiny team including all of our wonderful portfolio companies for a truly great year. We made significant progress across a number of strategic and financial priorities. We grew our adjusted EBITDA recurring revenue and free cash flow significantly. We meaningfully reduced our leverage profile through debt repayment and increased profitability. We uplisted to the TSX which was a monumental task for our finance team and across the portfolio. We completed the majority acquisition of Serato, the world's leading DJ software company, and continued to optimize the portfolio through strategic divestitures and cost discipline. I am extremely proud of the work our team completed this year, and it's both validating and humbling to see Letterboxd and MetaLab recently recognized among the most innovative companies in the world by Fast Company. Continuing on, as reported, Tiny's gross revenue increased 9% compared to Q425 and 5% on a full year basis. Our growth was mainly driven by the Serato acquisition and growth in digital services, excluding these strategic divestitures completed in Q424. Growth for the quarter was 15% when excluding these divestitures, as well as the divestiture of WeWork remotely. We remain excited about Serato's future prospects as we continue to invest in product roadmap, including rolling out thoughtful integrations of additional AI capabilities. Dribbble's services marketplace continued to show momentum with continued growth in its GMV. We expect the marketplace to drive growth going forward through additional transaction fees, designer advertising, and subscriptions. Our digital services segment continued to benefit from its market-leading position in throughout 2025, completing landmark work for Fortune 500 and leading AI companies. Looking ahead and across the portfolio, we are seeing opportunities to create new revenue streams by leveraging our large sets of proprietary data. Serato was transformational for our recurring revenue profile in 2025, leading to a 50% increase year over year. As a company, we will continue to focus on both organic and acquisition related opportunities to enhance this recurring revenue base. I'm going to turn it over to our CFO, Mike McKenna.
Mike McKenna Okay, thank you, Jordan. I'll start by providing an overview of performance around adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin. for the year-end 2025 adjusted EBITDA came in at 37.9 million this is a strong 22 improvement over fiscal year 2024's adjusted EBITDA of 31 million this reflects real operational progress across the business supported by the strong top line growth the margin story is equally strong We expanded from 16% in fiscal year 2024 to 19% in fiscal year 2025. And that improvement has been consistent and sustainable across the quarters of the year. There are two very key drivers here, one being the Serato acquisition, contributing meaningfully to our earnings profile. Disciplined cost management across the entire portfolio continues to enhance margin. Q4 2025 adjusted EBITDA of $9.8 million held steady, demonstrating the durability of earnings power heading into 2026. Moving on to slide eight, this will provide an overview of free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow post debt servicing for the year end 2025 free cash flow of 25.3 million represents a 171 increase over 2024 this is the clearer signal how much stronger the business has become while q4 was softer at 1.3 million driven by working capital timing and the semi-annual interest payments on our convertible to ventures. This is expected and not a structural concern. The free cash flow calculation is conservative and transparent. It includes licensing income, but excludes the gain on the sale of WeWork remotely. Prioritizing debt repayment with this cash flow is positioning us well for future capital allocation opportunities. These include acquisitions, buybacks, and other means of which we could deploy capital across the portfolio. With that, I'll turn it back to Jordan to talk about Tiny Fund One.
Thanks, Mike. Our Tiny Fund companies performed well in 2025, with NAV increasing 17% from 24. This was mainly driven by NAV increases at Letterboxd and Matina, and really shows that Letterboxd continued its growth trajectory, both growing revenue through advertising, partnerships, and overall user growth. They reached over 26 million users by the end of the 2025 quarter. AeroPress also expanded its product range with the release of its manual grinder in Q425 and the AeroPress all-metal steel version in Q1 of 26. You'll recall that earlier this year we increased our LP interest in the fund through purchases at a discount to NAV and we remain excited about the performance and opportunities that the fund represents for Tiny overall. I'll pass it over to Mike to talk about our debt and cash division.
Thank you, Jordan. In a year-over-year comparison, our senior debt has come down meaningfully, from $116.9 million at the end of 2024 to $98.7 million at the end of 2025. That's roughly $18 million of debt retired during the year. our net debt to adjusted EBITDA ratio of 2.4 sits within our target range of 2 to 2.5 times and the trend line shows a consistent deliberate deleveraging story even when factoring in financing for the serato acquisition this did cause a temporary uptick in leveraging q2 of 2025. However, we absorbed that and continued the downward trajectory, which speaks to the quality of the transaction. Total cash on hand grew to $29.3 million from $22.9 million, again, in a year-over-year comparison. We're building a stronger liquidity position while paying down debt simultaneously.
Going forward, we remain committed to staying within our target leverage range while preserving enough flexibility to act on attractive acquisition opportunities when they arise with that i'll turn it back to jordan for the remainder of the results review thanks mike in 25 we really made meaningful progress in increasing profitability and and actually believe there's further opportunities through growth productivity and efficiency gains through AI and continued cost discipline we will continue to focus on responsibly managing our leverage and have been very public about our target range of two to two and a half times net debt to EBITDA we're also continuing to work through our refinancing options as we look to renew our existing facilities finally we were able to repurchase 134 000 shares of tiny totally just over a million dollars and we remain focused on disciplined capital allocation across the company i wanted to say thank you again to our team for an incredible year and we look forward to another great 2026. thanks everyone i'll open up the line for questions thank you very much to ask a question
