FY2025 Trading Update and Notice of Results

Digitalbox plc (AIM: DBOX), the mobile-first digital media business, which owns Entertainment Daily, The Daily Mash, The Tab, The Poke and TV Guide, is pleased to provide the following unaudited trading update ahead of the publication of its results for the twelve months to 31 December 2025. The Company expects to announce its results on Tuesday 31 March 2026.

During a period of change across the media industry in Q4 2025 - traditionally the Company's most important trading period - Digitalbox delivered strong results. With AI impacting publishers across the board, Digitalbox's broad diversity of distribution channels and strong levels of audience engagement have proved increasingly important.

Digitalbox expects EBITDA¹ for the year ended 31 December 2025 to be comfortably ahead of market consensus² at c.£330k, with improved margins on the back of a more efficient H2 cost base. Revenue for the year is expected to be c.£3.9m. As at 31 December 2025, the Company had c.£1.8m in gross cash.

James Carter, CEO of Digitalbox, said: "The second half of 2025 was both an exciting and demanding period for the publishing industry. We executed our plan to explore highly focused new market sectors-specifically reality TV, soaps, and the UK royal family-as part of what we call our 'verticals strategy', while also strengthening our on‑platform revenue generation. We are pleased with the acquisition of the Media Chain Group's digital assets during the year, which we believe will support further growth and contribute to our ongoing organic expansion plans."

¹All EBITDA figures quoted are for Adjusted EBITDA, defined as the profit from operations after deducting depreciation, amortisation, share-based payments, acquisition and listing costs, direct costs associated with business combinations and capital restructure costs.

²As at 3 December 2025 the directors understood market consensus for the year ending 31 December 2025 to be revenue of £4.1m and EBITDA of £0.2m.
