Each filer's latest fiscal year as stored by the nightly crawl; fiscal year ends differ across the universe. A metric ranks only filers for which it is computable from filed facts. Ties split; a rank reads "better than N% of filers" in the metric's own direction. Descriptive and educational, not a rating.
Earnings quality
latest fiscal year ending 2026-03-31 · accruals and cash conversion as filedPer fiscal year from filed facts: cash conversion = operating cash flow / net income (net income > 0); cash-flow accrual ratio = (net income - operating cash flow) / average total assets; balance-sheet accrual ratio = change in net operating assets / average net operating assets, NOA = (assets - cash) - (liabilities - debt). Descriptive; a missing input yields a missing ratio. High accrual ratios and cash conversion well below one are the measures the accruals literature associates with less persistent earnings; they are screens to read the cash-flow statement with, not conclusions. The per-year series is part of Pro risk analysis.

First filing reporting each period vs the latest filing carrying it (10-K and 10-Q only, periods since 2020, the extractor's winning tag per concept); a change under 0.5% is treated as rounding. A change can be a restatement, a reclassification or a re-tagging in a later comparative column; the two filings are linked so the reader can see which. Descriptive, not a verdict.

NOTE 15. CONTINGENCIES AND COMMITMENTS Litigation The Company is subject to claims and contingencies in the normal course of business. To the extent the Company cannot determine whether a loss is probable based on the uncertain outcome of the claims and contingencies or estimate the amount of any loss that may result, no provision for any contingent liabilities has been made in the condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company believes that losses resulting from these matters, if any, would not have a material adverse effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company. All such matters which the Company concludes are probable to result in a loss and for which management can reasonably estimate the amount of such loss have been accrued for within these condensed consolidated financial statements.

Share-based compensation expense totaled $3,339,120 ($2,599,612, net of taxes) and $3,333,853 ($2,591,992, net of taxes) during the nine months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Share-based compensation expense is classified as Administration expenses in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of income. During the nine months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company granted restricted stock units ( RSUs ) to satisfy previous obligations to issue a variable number of equity awards based on a fixed monetary amount. Prior to the issuance of these RSUs, the Company classified these awards as liabilities. Upon issuance of the RSUs, the awards became equity-classified as they no longer met the criteria to be liability-classified and as a result liabilities of $1,075,407 and $802,500 were reclassified from accounts payable and accrued liabilities to additional paid-in capital during the nine months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. …

Fair value · 2,713 characters as filed
NOTE 14. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS The Company is exposed to the following risks related to its financial instruments: (a) Credit Risk Credit risk arises from the possibility that the Companys debtors may be unable to fulfill their financial obligations. Revenues earned from publishing and distribution companies are concentrated in the music and entertainment industry. The Company monitors its exposure to credit risk on a regular basis. (b) Interest Rate Risk The Company is exposed to market risk from changes in interest rates on its Senior Credit Facility. As described in Note 8, Secured Line of Credit, the Company entered into interest rate swap agreements to partially reduce its exposure to fluctuations in interest rates on its Credit Facilities. The fair value of the outstanding interest rate swaps consisted of a $642,406 asset and a $807,654 liability as of December 31, 2025 and a $1,828,303 asset and a $410,008 liability at March 31, 2025. Fair value is determined using Level 2 inputs, which are based on quoted prices and market observable data of similar instruments. The change in the unrealized fair value of the swaps during the three and nine months ended December 31, 2025 of $270,380 and $1,583,543, respectively, was recorded as a loss on fair value of swaps. The change in the unrealized fair value of the swaps during the three months ended December 31, 2024 of $3,084,761 reflects marking to market our current interest rate swap hedges and was recorded as a gain on fair …

NOTE 9. INCOME TAXES Income tax expense for the three months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 was $1,078,418 (32.9% effective tax rate) and $1,987,150 (27.2% effective tax rate), respectively. Income tax expense for the nine months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 was $1,754,665 (31.8% effective tax rate) and $1,540,589 (23.5% effective tax rate), respectively. Income tax expense during the nine months ended December 31, 2024 reflects excess tax benefits related to share-based compensation and an incremental tax benefit of approximately $103,000 related to certain international intangible assets. The income tax expense during these periods also reflects the amount and mix of income from multiple tax jurisdictions. On July 4, 2025, the reconciliation bill, commonly referred to as the One Big Beautiful Bill Act ( OBBBA ), was signed into law in the U.S., introducing a broad range of tax reform provisions, including changes to interest deductibility, bonus depreciation, and various international provisions with multiple effective dates, with certain provisions effective in 2025 and others implemented through 2027. The impact of the OBBBA tax legislation did not have a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements during the three and nine months ended December 31, 2025, and is not expected to have a material impact in future periods. …

Revenue recognition · 4,058 characters as filed
NOTE 4. REVENUE RECOGNITION For the Companys operating and reportable segments, Music Publishing and Recorded Music, the Company accounts for a contract when it has legally enforceable rights and obligations and collectability of consideration is probable. The Company identifies the performance obligations and determines the transaction price associated with the contract. Revenue is recognized when, or as, control of the promised services or goods is transferred to the Companys customers, and in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company is expected to be entitled in exchange for those services or goods. Certain of the Companys arrangements include licenses of intellectual property with consideration in the form of sales- and usage-based royalties. Royalty revenue is recognized when the subsequent sale or usage occurs using the best estimates available of the amounts that will be received by the Company. The Company recognized revenue of $1,949,916 and $4,376,551 from performance obligations satisfied in previous periods for the nine months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

NOTE 16. SEGMENT REPORTING The Companys business is organized in three operating segments, one of which does not meet the quantitative thresholds for determining reportable segments, and two reportable segments: Music Publishing and Recorded Music. The Company identified its Chief Executive Officer as its Chief Operating Decision Maker ( CODM ). The Companys CODM evaluates financial performance of its segments based on operating income before depreciation and amortization ( OIBDA ). The CODM regularly reviews trends in OIBDA and compares OIBDA results to budgets to evaluate the profitability of the segments. During the annual budget process, the CODM also considers OIBDA to assist in the allocation of resources to the segments. The accounting policies of the Companys business segments are consistent with the Companys policies for the condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company does not have sales between segments. The following tables present total revenue and OIBDA by segment, significant segment expenses, which are expenses that are included in OIBDA, significant to the segment considering qualitative and quantitative factors and regularly provided or easily computed from information regularly provided to the CODM, and a reconciliation of OIBDA to income before income taxes for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024: Three Months Ended December 31, 2025 Music Recorded Publishing Music Total Reportable segment revenue $ 30,121,545 $ 12,872,57 …
