SAN CLEMENTE, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–The Marygold Companies, Inc. (the “Company”) (NYSE American: MGLD), a global holding firm with a focus on financial services, today reported financial results for its first fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2025.
Revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2025, amounted to $7.0 million, compared with $7.9 million for the same period last year. The Company also recorded a $0.5 million gain on the sale of Brigadier Securities Systems, a Canadian-based wholly owned subsidiary that was sold for $2.3 million in July 2025.
The Company sustained a net loss of $0.4 million, equal to $0.01 per share, for the quarter ended September 30, 2025, as compared with a net loss of $1.6 million, or $0.04 per share, for the first fiscal quarter last year. Although revenues were lower in the current quarter, the Company registered an improved overall financial performance by reducing costs in its fintech-based subsidiary and realizing better operating results in certain of its other operating subsidiaries as compared with the prior year period.
The Company’s balance sheet remains strong at the close of the fiscal 2026 first quarter. Cash and cash equivalents amounted to $4.9 million, with total assets of $28.4 million, total stockholders’ equity of $22.9 million and, notably, no debt.
David Neibert, Chief Operations Officer, said, “During the quarter, proceeds from the sale of Brigadier were applied to retire all of the Company’s remaining debt. The consolidated net loss for the fiscal 2026 first quarter reflected significant expenses in connection with the funding of Marygold & Co. (U.K.), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, as it continues to develop and market the Marygold mobile fintech app in the U.K. During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2025, Marygold & Co. paused the marketing of its fintech app in the U.S., which will save the Company approximately $4 million in annualized expenses.
“Our largest subsidiary, USCF Investments, which manages 16 exchange traded products (‘ETFs’ and ‘ETPs’), again experienced market volatility during the first quarter, stemming from geopolitical uncertainty primarily related to tariffs within the energy sector. USCF was profitable for the quarter and had approximately $2.9 billion average assets under management (AUM) versus $3.1 billion in last year’s first quarter.
“The Company’s non-financial services businesses, which include a full line of specialty hair and skin care products in California, and food products and specialized printing services located in New Zealand, performed profitably for the first fiscal quarter, with a positive growth outlook for the current fiscal year,” Neibert said.
“The actions taken last year to reduce costs, eliminate debt, and the opportunistic sale of Brigadier are beginning to pay off as we focus our growth and the Company’s future on financial services, which include innovative ETFs in the U.S. and investment advisory services, coupled with a mobile fintech app, in the U.K.,” added Nicholas Gerber, Chief Executive Officer. “Our entire management team is working diligently to achieve our objective of operating profitably and adding value for all stakeholders.”
