Item 1. Business
Our Business
Gaia, Inc. ("Gaia," "we," "us," "our" or the "Company") operates a global digital video subscription service and community that strives to connect a unique and underserved member base. Our digital content library includes over 10,000 titles and live events, with a growing selection of titles available in Spanish, German and French. Our members have unlimited access to this vast library of inspiring films, cutting edge documentaries, interviews, yoga classes, live events, transformation-related content and more - 90% of which is exclusively available to our members for digital streaming on most internet-connected devices anytime, anywhere, commercial free.
Our mission is to create a transformational network that empowers a global conscious community. Content on our network is currently organized into four primary channels- Yoga, Transformation, Alternative Healing, and Seeking Truth- and delivered directly to our members through our streaming platform. We curate programming for these channels by producing original content on our lifestyle campus with a staff of media professionals. This original and owned content currently comprises over 75% of our members' viewing time. We complement our original and owned content through long-term licensing agreements. Over 98% of our titles are available worldwide.
Our Content Channels
From the beginning, we have focused on establishing exclusive rights to unique content through in-house productions, licensing and strategic content acquisitions. Today, our network includes the following channels:
Seeking Truth- As an alternative to mainstream media, our Seeking Truth channel provides new and enlightening perspectives for today's changing world. Through thought-provoking questions like "who are we", and topics that include ancient wisdom and metaphysics, we go beyond the boundaries of mainstream media, and encourage our viewers to find empowerment through knowledge and awareness. Through this channel, our members have access to top names in the genre who conduct exclusive interviews and presentations not found anywhere else.
Transformation - Through our Transformation channel, we feature a wealth of content in the niche areas of spiritual growth, personal development and expanded consciousness. Our original and licensed content empowers members to live stronger, healthier, more productive and enlightened lives.
Alternative Healing - Our Alternative Healing channel features content focused on food and nutrition, holistic healing, meditation, alternative and integrative medicines, and longevity. Blending modern science with cutting edge research around neuroplasticity, energy healing, aging, and wellness, this channel fuels our members' pursuit of optimal health.
Yoga- Through our Yoga channel, our members enjoy unlimited access to streaming yoga, Eastern arts, and other movement-based classes. Currently, we are one of the world's largest providers of streaming yoga classes. Blending ancient philosophy with anytime, anywhere access through modern technology, our classes on Eastern arts like T'ai Chi, Qigong, Ayurveda and more encourage the holistic integration of body, mind and spirit.
The Streaming Video Market and Gaia
Consumption of streaming video is expanding rapidly as more and more people augment their use of, or replace broadcast television with, streaming video to watch their favorite content on a growing array of digital streaming services. The streaming video market includes various free, ad-supported and subscription service offerings focused on various genres, including films, broadcast and original series, fitness and educational content.
Gaia's position in the streaming video landscape is firmly supported by its wide variety of exclusive and unique content and lifestyle events, which provides a complementary offering to other, mostly entertainment-based, streaming video services. Our original content is developed and produced in-house on our lifestyle campus near Boulder, Colorado. Over 90% of our content is available for streaming exclusively on Gaia to most internet-connected devices.
1
By offering exclusive and unique content over a streaming service, we believe we will be able to significantly expand our target member base. Gaia believes the current size of our potential target market can be defined as approximately 15% of streaming users that currently pay for a subscription streaming video service.
Competitive Strengths
We believe that we differentiate ourselves from our competition and have been able to grow our business through the following demonstrated competitive strengths:
Exclusive Content and Ubiquitous Access- We have amassed a library of unique content for which we hold exclusive worldwide streaming distribution rights and have established exclusive relationships with certain key talent in our areas of focus. Over 90% of our titles are available to our members for streaming on most internet-connected devices exclusively on Gaia.
Proprietary and Curated Content- Proprietary and curated content lies at the core of our business model. Our media offerings introduce members to us and help establish Gaia as an authority in the conscious media market. Our original and owned content comprises approximately 80% of our members' viewing time. Our licensed content has initial terms ranging predominately from 3 to 7.5 years. With the growth in demand for digital rights, we expect that our large library of produced and acquired content combined with our internal production capabilities, live events and community will be a key driver in our ability to grow efficiently and act as a hedge against the rising costs of digital rights.
International Rights- The strength of our proprietary content library created by our original content production strategy and our unique approach to content licensing have provided us with a library of niche content to which we hold exclusive worldwide distribution rights that we believe would be difficult to acquire in today's market. By obtaining these rights, we have created a meaningful barrier to entry for competitors in our content niches and have given ourselves the potential to reach a worldwide member base with no additional licensing costs. Over 98% of our titles are available worldwide.
Unique Member Base- We believe that our unique and exclusive content allows us to cater to a member base that traditional media companies have mostly ignored. We believe this member base can be significantly expanded as more and more people enter our niche categories and begin accessing streaming content over the internet.
Unique Content Strength- We believe that our unique focus, combined with our content exclusivity, positions us as a complementary service to larger streaming video providers who are primarily entertainment driven. In addition, this focus has allowed an opportunity for significant advantages:
2
Growth Drivers
Our core strategy is to grow our subscription business domestically and internationally using the following drivers:
Investment in Streaming Content -We believe that our investment in streaming content leads to more awareness and viewership of our unique content. This leads to member acquisition and revenue growth, allowing us to invest more into our content library and enabling the growth cycle to continue. By investing in our in-house studios, digital asset management system and digital delivery platforms, we can produce and distribute new digital content at low incremental costs. With our end-to-end production capabilities and unique, exclusive relationships with thought leaders in our areas of focus, we believe we can develop content much more efficiently than our competitors.
Continuous Service Improvements- We have found that incremental improvements in our service and quality enhance our member satisfaction and retention. We have built our platform to optimize the speed and performance of streaming video playback, provide a unique and customized site experience for every member and provide the foundation for our expansion into foreign languages. We continue to refine our technology, user interfaces, recommendation algorithms and delivery infrastructure to improve the member experience as the underlying technology continues to evolve. We use AI to refine our technology, user interfaces, recommendation algorithms and delivery infrastructure to improve the member experience. Furthermore, we use AI to drive efficiency and productivity improvement for our corporate business processes.
Overall Adoption and Growth of Internet TV on Every Screen -Domestically, cable TV members have been declining, while the demand for digital content services accessible on various devices has continued to grow. Gaia is accessible on a broad array of devices, including, but not limited to: Apple TV, iPad, iPhone, Android devices, Roku, Amazon Fire, select smart TVs, and Chromecast. Through this accessibility, we believe that we enhance the value of our service to members as well as position ourselves for continued growth as internet and mobile delivery of content continues to become the preferred method for more consumers globally.
International Market Expansion -We believe the international streaming segment represents a significant long-term growth opportunity as people around the world begin to adopt the viewing behaviors of the U.S. market. Our exclusive worldwide streaming rights have allowed us to expand internationally by adding foreign language support to our service without having to invest in local foreign operations. Today, approximately 40% of our members are outside of the United States.
Gaia+ Premium Membership and GaiaSphere- The GaiaSphere is a 300-person live event studio located on our campus in Colorado. With the opening of the GaiaSphere, we also launched the Gaia+ premium annual membership to allow for digital access to these exclusive events via live streaming and on demand. Through GaiaSphere and the Gaia+ premium offering, we have expanded our reach to a larger audience of talent that will contribute to our content library, as well as drive incremental revenue growth. Our Gaia+ offering consists of on-demand access to past events and the ability to participate via live streaming while events are happening.
3
Member Driven Growth Enablement- We believe the empowerment of our existing members to drive awareness of and interest in Gaia will be a key driver of future growth and engagement of the Gaia global community. To support this awareness, we allow existing members the ability to share Gaia content with their connections free of charge over a limited time window. This product feature allows us to leverage our existing members' desire to share our content to ultimately drive more interest and awareness, which will lead to member growth that is not wholly dependent on marketing expenditures.
Complement our Existing Business with Selective Strategic Acquisitions -Our growth strategy is not dependent on acquisitions. However, we will consider strategic acquisitions that complement our existing business, increase our content library, expand our geographical reach and add to our member base. When evaluating potential acquisitions, we focus on companies with unique media content, a strong brand identity and members that augment our existing member base.
AI Offerings- We continue to enhance and add to our offerings through new technological developments including the use of generative AI which is a rapidly evolving technology.
Marketing
We build awareness and demand for the Gaia brand through various channels focusing on mobile and video. Organic search, paid search, digital and social media, email marketing, influencer marketing, ambassador marketing, as well as various strategic partnerships make up our continually optimized portfolio of member acquisition and retention tools. Rejoining members are an important source of member additions, many of which come back to Gaia after receiving special communications via email or seeing our digital advertising for new content.
History
In 2013, we launched our streaming video service and focused our efforts on growing domestically and internationally by expanding our streaming content, enhancing our user interface and extending our streaming content to even more internet-connected devices.
In 2016, we divested all of our product businesses and focused on scaling our streaming video service and community. Since then we have launched Spanish, German and French language offerings. We have continued to invest in our international offerings, including original programming in these languages.
These investments in our subscription business have been instrumental in our ability to grow by expanding our streaming video on demand capabilities and increasing our library of unique content of transformational media, intended to awaken and inspire viewers around the world.
4
Business Segments
We operate in a single reporting segment. Our revenues are primarily derived from subscription fees for services related to streaming content to our members. See Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - Segment Information, and Note 14, Segment Information and Geographic Information, in the accompanying notes to our consolidated financial statements for further detail.
Regulatory Matters
The media landscape and the internet delivery of content have seen growing regulatory action. Historically, media has been highly regulated in many countries. We are seeing some of these legacy regulatory frameworks updated and expanded to address services like ours. In particular, we are seeing some countries update their cultural support legislation to include services like Gaia. This includes content quotas, levies and investment obligations. In certain countries, regulators are also looking at restrictions that could require formal reviews of and/or adjustments to content that appears on our service in their country. In general these regulations impact all services and may make operating in certain jurisdictions more expensive or restrictive as to the content offering we may provide.
Competition
While our content offering is unique, the market for subscription-based content delivered over the internet is intensely competitive and subject to rapid change. Many consumers maintain simultaneous relationships with multiple providers and can easily shift spending from one provider to another. We are a focused provider within the streaming video market that is able to compete by providing exclusive content available on almost any device. Our principal competitors vary by world geographic region and include multichannel video programming distributors and internet-based movie and TV content providers, including those that provide legal and illegal (pirated) streaming video content and various communities. We believe that due to the exclusivity of our content, we are positioning ourselves as a complementary service to large general content providers such as television broadcasters, cable television channels, and an array of other entertainment based streaming services, including those that have recently launched.
Human Capital
We view our employees and our culture as keys to our success. As of December 31, 2025, Gaia had 112 full time employees, all of which are located in the United States. None of our employees are covered by a collective bargaining agreement. We supplement our full-time employees with services provided by staffing organizations in other countries to support our customer service, content production and software engineering needs. We believe a critical component of our success is our company culture, which begins with hiring focused on our current member base. The majority of our current employees came to work at Gaia after discovering our content offering and have become passionate team members that continue to help expand the impact of our mission globally.
Intellectual Property and Other Proprietary Rights
We regard our trademarks, service marks, copyrights, domain names, trade secrets, proprietary technologies and similar intellectual property as important to our success. We use a combination of trademark, copyright and trade secret laws and confidentiality agreements to protect our proprietary intellectual property. Our ability to protect and enforce our intellectual property rights is subject to certain risks, and from time to time we encounter disputes over rights and obligations concerning intellectual property. We cannot provide assurance that we will prevail in any intellectual property disputes.
Website and Available Information
Our corporate website, www.gaia.com, provides information about us, our history, goals and philosophy, as well as certain financial reports and corporate press releases. Our website also features a library of information and articles on personal development and healthy lifestyles, along with an extensive offering of video content. We believe our website provides us with an opportunity to deepen our relationships with our members and investors, educate them on a variety of issues and improve our service. As part of this commitment, we have a link on our corporate website to our Securities and Exchange Commission filings, including our reports on Forms 10-K, 10-Q, and 8-K, and amendments thereto. We make those reports available through our website, free of charge, as soon as reasonably practicable after these reports are filed or furnished with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

We have included our website address only as inactive textual reference, the information contained on our website is not incorporated by reference into this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
We caution that there are risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results to be materially different from those indicated by forward looking statements that we make from time to time in filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, news releases, reports, communications to shareholders and other written and oral communications. These risks and uncertainties include those risks described below of which we are presently aware. Historical results are not necessarily an indication of future results. The risk factors below discuss important factors that could cause our business, financial condition, operating results and cash flows to be materially adversely affected.
Risks Related to our Business and Industry
If our efforts to attract and retain members are not successful, our business will be adversely affected.
We have experienced significant member growth since we began our digital subscription business in 2013. Our ability to continue to attract members will depend in part on our ability to consistently provide our members with a valuable and quality streaming experience. Furthermore, the relative service levels, content offerings, pricing and related features of our competitors may adversely impact our ability to attract and retain members. We compete for screen viewing time with multichannel video programming distributors providing free-on-demand content through authenticated internet applications, internet-based movie and TV content providers, including both those that provide legal and illegal (or pirated) streaming video content, streaming video retail stores, and video game providers, as well as user-generated content, some of which are by professional content creators, and, more broadly, other sources of entertainment, among others. If consumers do not perceive our service offering to be of value, or if we introduce new or adjust existing features or change the mix of content in a manner that is not favorably received by them, we may not be able to attract and retain members. Adverse macroeconomic conditions, including inflation, may also adversely impact our ability to attract and retain members.
In addition, many of our members originate from word-of-mouth advertising from existing members. If our efforts to satisfy our existing members are not successful, we may not be able to attract new members, and as a result, our ability to maintain and/or grow our business will be adversely affected. Members cancel our service for many reasons, including a perception that they do not use the service sufficiently, the need to cut household expenses, unsatisfactory availability of content, competitive services providing a better value or experience and customer service issues not satisfactorily resolved. We must continually add new members both to replace members who cancel and to grow our business beyond our current member base. If too many of our members cancel our service, or if we are unable to attract new members in numbers sufficient to sustain and grow our business, our operating results will be adversely affected. If we are unable to successfully compete with current and new competitors in both retaining our existing members and attracting new members, our business will be adversely affected. Further, if excessive numbers of members cancel our service, we may be required to incur significantly higher marketing expenditures than we currently anticipate in order to replace these members with new members.
If we are unable to compete effectively, our business will be adversely affected.
The market for streaming content is intensely competitive and subject to rapid change. New technologies and evolving business models for delivery of streaming content continue to develop at a fast pace. Through new and existing distribution channels, consumers are afforded various means for consuming streaming content. The various economic models underlying these differing means of streaming content delivery include subscription, transactional, ad-supported and piracy-based models. All of these have the potential to capture meaningful segments of the streaming content market. Several competitors have longer operating histories, larger customer bases, and stronger brand recognition than we do and have significant financial, marketing and other resources. They may secure better terms from suppliers, adopt more aggressive pricing and devote more resources to technology and marketing. New entrants may enter the market with unique service offerings or approaches to providing streaming content and other companies also may enter into business combinations or alliances that strengthen their competitive positions. In addition, new technological developments, including the development and use of generative artificial intelligence, are rapidly evolving. If we are unable to successfully compete with current and new competitors, programs and technologies, our
6
business will be adversely affected and we may not be able to increase market share and revenues and/or achieve profitability.
We have had operating losses, and we cannot assure future profitability.
We reported net loss attributable to common shareholders of $(4.5) million in 2025 compared to net loss attributable to common shareholders of $(5.2) million in 2024. Additionally, we reported net losses during several prior years as a result of continued investment in member acquisition efforts to drive revenue growth. No assurance can be made that we will operate profitably in future periods and, if we do not, we may not be able to meet any future debt service requirements, working capital requirements, capital expenditure plans, production slate, acquisition plans or other cash needs. Our inability to meet those needs could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, operating results, liquidity and prospects.
If we are not able to manage change and growth, our business could be adversely affected.
We are expanding our operations internationally, scaling our streaming service to effectively and reliably handle anticipated growth in both members and features related to our service. As we expand internationally, we are managing our business to address varied content offerings, consumer customs and practices, in particular those dealing with e-commerce and internet video, as well as differing legal and regulatory environments. As we scale our streaming service, we are developing technology and utilizing third-party internet-based or "cloud" computing services. If we are not able to manage the growing complexity of our business, including improving, refining or revising our systems and operational practices related to our streaming operations, our business could be adversely affected.
If our efforts to build unique brand identity and improve member satisfaction and loyalty are not successful, we may not be able to attract or retain members, and our operating results may be adversely affected.
We must continue to build and maintain a unique brand identity. We believe that a unique brand identity will be important in attracting and retaining members who have a number of choices from which to obtain streaming content. To build a unique brand identity, we believe we must continue to offer content and service features that our members value and enjoy. We also believe that these must be coupled with effective consumer communications such as marketing, customer service and public relations. If our efforts to promote and maintain our brand identity are not successful, our ability to attract and retain members may be adversely affected. Such a result may adversely affect our operating results.
With respect to our expansion into international markets, we will also need to establish our brand identity in new markets and languages, and to the extent we are not successful, our business in new markets may be adversely impacted.
Changes in our member acquisition sources could adversely affect our marketing expenses and member levels may be adversely affected.
We utilize a broad mix of marketing and public relations programs, including social media websites such as Facebook and YouTube, to promote our service to potential new members. We may limit or discontinue use or support of certain marketing sources or activities if advertising rates increase or if we become concerned that members or potential members deem certain marketing practices intrusive or damaging to our brand. If available marketing channels are limited or curtailed, our ability to attract new members may be adversely affected.
Companies that currently promote our services may cease promoting our services, may determine to compete more directly with our business or enter a similar business, or may decide to exclusively support our competitors. If we no longer have access to such marketing channels, our marketing efforts may be adversely affected. If we are unable to maintain or replace our sources of members with similarly effective sources, or if the cost of our existing sources increases, our member levels and marketing expenses may be adversely affected.
7
We face risks, such as unforeseen costs and potential liabilities, in connection with content we produce, license and/or distribute through our service.
As a producer and distributor of content, we face potential liability for defamation, negligence, copyright or trademark infringement, misinformation, personal injury torts or other claims based on the nature and content of materials that we produce, license and/or distribute. We also face potential liability for content used in promoting our service, including marketing materials and features on our platform such as member reviews. Allegations of impropriety, even if unfounded, could have a material adverse effect on our reputation and our business.
We are responsible for production costs and other expenses related to our original content. We also take on risks associated with this production, such as completion and key talent risk. To the extent we do not accurately anticipate costs or mitigate risks, or if we become liable for content we produce, license and/or distribute, our business may suffer. Litigation to defend these claims could be costly and the expenses and damages arising from any liability or unforeseen production risks could harm our results of operations. We may not be indemnified to cover claims or costs of these types and we may not have insurance coverage for these types of claims.
Problematic content accessed through our service, including content that violates our content guidelines or the content guidelines of our partners, could damage our reputation and hurt our ability to retain and expand our base of members and partners.
Our ability to maintain and protect our brand depends, in part, on our ability to maintain the quality and integrity of the content and other information accessed through our streaming service. While we undertake efforts to detect and prevent problematic content and to ensure our content complies with our content guidelines and the content guidelines of our third-party partners, no assurance can be given that such efforts will be error-free.
If we fail to either detect and prevent problematic content or effectively promote high-quality content, it could hurt our reputation and confidence in our brand, thereby negatively affecting the use of our service and our financial performance. In addition, our partners may refuse to carry the Gaia "app" on their platform if our content violates their content guidelines. Problematic content accessed through our service may also subject us to media, legal or regulatory scrutiny, which could adversely affect our reputation and brand.
If we fail to maintain a positive reputation concerning our service and the content we offer, we may not be able to attract or retain members, we may face regulatory scrutiny and our operating results may be adversely affected.
We believe that a positive reputation concerning our service is important in attracting and retaining members. To the extent our content, in particular, our original programming, is perceived as low quality, offensive or otherwise not compelling to consumers, our ability to establish and maintain a positive reputation may be adversely impacted. To the extent our content is deemed controversial or offensive by government regulators, we may face direct or indirect retaliatory action or behavior, including being required to remove such content from our service, our entire service could be banned and/or become subject to heightened regulatory scrutiny across our business and operations. We could also face boycotts which could adversely affect our business. Furthermore, to the extent our response to government action or our marketing, customer service and public relations efforts are not effective or result in negative reaction, our ability to establish and maintain a positive reputation may likewise be adversely impacted. There is an increasing focus from regulators, investors, members and other stakeholders on sustainability matters, both in the United States and internationally. To the extent we are unable to meet regulatory or industry standards or investor expectations on sustainability matters or the content we distribute and the manner in which we produce content creates sustainability-related concerns, our reputation may be harmed.
Artificial intelligence ("AI") technology may negatively impact our ability to attract and retain members; protect and monetize our streaming content and intellectual property; maintain and grow our revenue streams; avoid reputational harm; and involve other risks.
Recent advances in the use of AI may significantly alter the market for our streaming content and service. These technologies make it easier to access, duplicate, and distribute our streaming content, or otherwise generate output
8
based on our streaming content, without authorization, fair compensation, or proper attribution. These technologies may reduce our online traffic and audience sizes, infringe our intellectual property rights, harm existing and potential new revenue streams, damage our brand, and adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations. Our reputation may also be harmed if these technologies wrongly attribute inaccurate information to us. We seek to limit such threats; however, controlling unauthorized use of our streaming content and intellectual property is difficult and preventative measures implemented by us may not prevent misuse, misattribution, and infringement of our intellectual property. Although we do not believe these threats have been material to our businesses to date, we expect to continue to be subject to these threats and, as a result we may experience a negative impact on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
We may use AI in our business and operations, and challenges with properly managing its use could harm our business and expose us to costly liability.
We may incorporate AI technology in certain parts of our business operations. Our research and development of such technology remains ongoing. Our use of AI technologies carries inherent risks, and there can be no assurance that our use of AI will enhance our streaming content or service or achieve any improvements in innovation or efficiency. AI-related issues, deficiencies or failures could give rise to legal or regulatory action, including with respect to proposed legislation regulating AI or as a result of new applications of existing data protection, privacy, intellectual property and other laws. In addition, we could be exposed to liability as a result of any misuse of AI by our personnel while carrying out Company responsibilities. While we aim to develop and use AI responsibly and attempt to identify and mitigate ethical and legal issues presented by its use, we may be unsuccessful in identifying or resolving issues before they arise. If we fail to properly manage our use of AI in our business and operations, our business could be harmed or we could be exposed to costly liability, which in turn could adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
Increases in payment processing fees, changes to operating rules, the acceptance of new types of payment methods or payment fraud could increase our operating expenses and adversely affect our business and results of operations.
Our members pay for our services predominately using credit and debit cards. Our acceptance of these payment methods requires our payment of certain fees. From time to time, these fees may increase, either as a result of rate changes by the payment processing companies or as a result of a change in our business practices which increase the fees on a cost-per-transaction basis. Such increases may adversely affect our results of operations.
We are subject to rules, regulations and practices governing our accepted payment methods. These rules, regulations and practices could change or be reinterpreted to make it difficult or impossible for us to comply. If we fail to comply with these rules or requirements, we may be subject to fines and higher transaction fees and lose our ability to accept these payment methods, and our business and results of operations would be adversely affected.
We accept payment methods other than credit and debit cards. As our service continues to evolve and expand internationally, we will likely continue to explore accepting various forms of payment, which may have higher fees and costs than our currently accepted payment methods. If more consumers utilize higher cost payment methods our payment costs could increase and our results of operations could be adversely impacted.
In addition, we do not obtain signatures from members in connection with their use of payment methods. To the extent we do not obtain members' signatures, we may be liable for fraudulent payment transactions, even when the associated financial institution approves payment of the orders. From time to time, fraudulent payment methods are used to obtain service. While we do have safeguards in place, we nonetheless experience some fraudulent transactions. We do not currently carry insurance against the risk of fraudulent payment transactions. A failure to adequately control fraudulent payment transactions would harm our business and results of operations.
9
We rely upon a number of partners to offer instant streaming of content to various devices.
We currently offer members the ability to receive streaming content through a host of internet-connected devices, including internet-enabled TVs, digital video players and mobile devices. We intend to continue to broaden our capability to instantly stream content to other platforms over time. If we are not successful in maintaining existing relationships and creating new ones, or if we encounter technological, content licensing or other impediments to our streaming content, our ability to grow our business could be adversely impacted.
We have agreements with third party partners, pursuant to which each makes available an "app" for viewing our content on its platform. Our agreements with our partners are typically between one and three years in duration and our business could be adversely affected if, upon expiration, our partners do not continue to provide access to our service or are unwilling to do so on terms acceptable to us, which terms may include the degree of accessibility and prominence of our service. We may be further harmed if these partners decide to remove our apps from their respective platforms for any other reason at any time.
Furthermore, the devices consumers use to access our content are manufactured and sold by entities other than Gaia and the devices' performance and the connection between these devices and our service may result in consumer dissatisfaction that could result in claims against us or otherwise adversely impact our business. In addition, technology changes to our streaming functionality may require that partners update their devices. If partners do not update or otherwise modify their devices, our service and our members' use and enjoyment could be negatively impacted.
We may face quarterly and seasonal fluctuations that could harm our business.
Our revenues and results of operations have fluctuated in the past, and will likely continue to fluctuate, on a quarterly basis. Such fluctuation is the result of a seasonal pattern that reflects variations when consumers are typically spending more time indoors and, as a result, tend to increase their viewing, similar to those of general video streaming services. This drives quarterly variations in our spending on member acquisition efforts and the number of net new subscribers we add each quarter but does not result in a corresponding seasonality in net revenue. As we continue to expand internationally, we also expect regional seasonality trends to demonstrate more predictable seasonal patterns as our service offering in each market becomes more established and we have a longer history to assess such patterns.
Acquisitions and new initiatives may harm our financial results.
We have historically expanded our operations in part through strategic acquisitions and through new initiatives that we generate. We cannot accurately predict the timing, size and success of these efforts. Our acquisition and new initiative strategies involve significant risks that could inhibit our growth and negatively impact our operating results, including the following: our ability to identify suitable acquisition candidates or new initiatives at acceptable prices; our ability to complete the acquisitions of candidates that we identify or development of our new initiatives; our ability to compete effectively for available acquisition opportunities; increases in asking prices by acquisition candidates to levels beyond our financial capability or to levels that would not result in the returns required by our acquisition criteria; diversion of management's attention to expansion efforts; unanticipated costs and contingent liabilities associated with acquisitions and new initiatives; failure of acquired businesses or new initiatives to achieve expected results; our failure to retain key customers or personnel of acquired businesses and difficulties entering markets in which we have no or limited experience. In addition, the size, timing and success of any future acquisitions and new initiatives may cause substantial fluctuations in our operating results from quarter to quarter. Consequently, our operating results for any quarter may not be indicative of the results that may be achieved for any subsequent quarter or for a full fiscal year. These fluctuations could adversely affect our results.
Risks Related to Information Technology and Privacy
We could be harmed by data loss or other security breaches.
As a result of our services being internet-based and the fact that we process, store, and transmit data, including personal information, for our members, failure to prevent or mitigate data loss or other security breaches, including breaches
10
of our suppliers' technology and systems, could expose us or our members to a risk of loss or misuse of such information, adversely affect our operating results, result in litigation or potential liability for us and otherwise harm our business. We use third-party technology and systems for a variety of reasons including, without limitation, encryption and authentication technology, employee email, content delivery to members, back-office support and other functions. Although we have implemented systems and processes that are designed to protect member information and prevent data loss and other security breaches, including systems and processes designed to reduce the impact of a security breach at a third-party supplier, such measures cannot provide absolute security.
Any significant disruption in our network or information systems or those of third parties that we utilize in our operations could result in a loss or degradation of service and could adversely impact our business.
Our reputation and ability to attract, retain and serve our members is dependent upon the reliable performance of our network and information systems and those of third parties that we utilize in our operations. We experience occasional system interruptions and delays that make our websites and services unavailable or slow to respond and prevent us from efficiently providing services to our members, which may reduce the attractiveness of our services. If we are unable to effectively upgrade our systems and network infrastructure and take other steps to improve the efficiency of our systems, we could face system interruptions or delays that may adversely affect our operating results.
Our systems may be subject to damage or interruption from adverse weather conditions, natural disasters, solar flares, public health issues such as pandemics or epidemics, national or international conflicts, including war, civil disturbances and terrorist attacks, rogue employees, power loss, telecommunications failures, computer viruses, computer denial of service attacks or other attempts to harm these systems. Interruptions in these systems, or to the internet in general, could make our service unavailable or degraded or otherwise hinder our ability to deliver content to our members. Service interruptions, errors in our software or the unavailability of network or information systems used in our operations could diminish the overall attractiveness of our membership service to existing and potential members.
We utilize third-party internet-based or "cloud" computing services in our business operations. We also utilize third-party content delivery networks to help us stream content in high volume to our members over the internet. Problems with these systems faced by us or our service providers, including technological or business-related disruptions, could adversely impact the experience of our members.
Any significant disruption in or unauthorized access to our network or information systems, or those of third parties that we utilize in our operations arising from cyber-attacks, could result in a loss or degradation of service, unauthorized disclosure of data (including member and corporate information) or theft of intellectual property, including digital content assets, which could adversely impact our business.
Our network and information systems and those of third parties we use in our operations are vulnerable to cybersecurity threats, including cyber-attacks such as computer viruses, denial of service attacks, physical or electronic break-ins and similar disruptions. These systems may experience directed attacks intended to lead to interruptions and delays in our service and operations as well as loss, misuse or theft of data or confidential information. Additionally, outside parties may attempt to fraudulently induce employees or users to disclose sensitive or confidential information in order to gain access to data. Any successful attempt by hackers to obtain our data (including members and corporate information) or intellectual property (including digital content assets), disrupt our service, or otherwise access our systems (or those of third parties we use), could harm our business, be expensive to remedy and damage our reputation. We have implemented certain systems and processes to thwart hackers and protect our data and systems, but techniques used to gain unauthorized access to data and software are constantly evolving, and we may be unable to anticipate or prevent unauthorized access. To date hackers have not had a material impact on our service or systems, although a risk remains that hackers may be successful in the future. Our insurance does not cover expenses related to such disruptions or unauthorized access. Efforts to prevent hackers from disrupting our service or otherwise accessing our systems are expensive to develop, implement and maintain. These efforts require ongoing monitoring and updating as technologies change and efforts to overcome security measures become more sophisticated and may limit the functionality of or otherwise negatively impact our service offering and systems. Any significant disruption to our service or access to our systems could result in a loss of members and adversely affect our business and results of operations. Further, a penetration of our systems or a third party's systems or other
11
misappropriation or misuse of personal information could subject us to business, regulatory, litigation and reputation risk, which could have a negative effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Our reputation and relationships with members would be harmed if our member data, particularly payment data, were to be accessed by unauthorized persons.
We maintain personal data regarding our members, including names and payment data. This data is maintained on our own systems as well as that of third parties we use in our operations. With respect to payment data, such as credit and debit card numbers, we rely on licensed encryption and authentication technology to secure such information. We take measures to protect against unauthorized intrusion into our members' data. Despite these measures, our payment processing services or other third-party services we use, could experience an unauthorized intrusion into our members' data. In the event of such a breach, current and potential members may become unwilling to provide the information to us necessary for them to remain or become members. We may also be required to notify regulators about any actual or perceived data breach (including the EU Lead Data Protection Authority) as well as the individuals who are affected by the incident within strict time periods. Additionally, we could face legal claims or regulatory fines or penalties for such a breach. The costs relating to any data breach could be material, and we currently do not carry insurance against the risk of a data breach. For these reasons, should an unauthorized intrusion into our members' data occur, our business could be adversely affected.
We rely on proprietary technology to stream content and to manage other aspects of our operations, and the failure of this technology to operate effectively could adversely affect our business.
We continually enhance or modify the technology used for our operations. We cannot be sure that any enhancements or other modifications we make to our operations will achieve the intended results or otherwise be of value to our members. Future enhancements and modifications to our technology could consume considerable resources. If we are unable to maintain and enhance our technology to manage the streaming of content to our members in a timely and efficient manner, or if our technology, or that of third parties we utilize in our operations, fails or otherwise operates improperly, our ability to retain existing members and to add new members may be impaired. Also, any harm to our members' personal computers or other devices caused by software used in our operations could have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
Changes in how network operators handle and charge for access to data that travel across their networks could adversely impact our business.
We rely upon the ability of consumers to access our service through the internet. To the extent that network operators implement usage-based pricing, including meaningful bandwidth caps, or otherwise try to monetize access to their networks by data providers, we could incur greater operating expenses and our member acquisition and retention could be negatively impacted. Furthermore, to the extent network operators were to create tiers of internet access service and either charge us for, or prohibit us from, being available through these tiers, our business could be negatively impacted.
Our online activities are subject to a variety of laws and regulations relating to privacy which, if violated, could subject us to an increased risk of litigation and regulatory actions.
In addition to our websites and applications, we use third-party applications, websites, and social media platforms to promote our service and engage consumers, as well as monitor and collect certain information about users of our service. There are a variety of laws and regulations governing individual privacy and the protection and use of information collected from such individuals, particularly in relation to an individual's personally identifiable information (e.g., credit card numbers). Many foreign countries have adopted similar laws governing individual privacy, some of which are more restrictive than similar U.S. laws. If our online activities were to violate any applicable current or future laws and regulations, we could be subject to litigation and regulatory actions, including fines and other penalties.
12
Risks Related to Intellectual Property
If our trademarks and other proprietary rights are not adequately protected to prevent unauthorized use or appropriation, the value of our brand and other intangible assets may be diminished, and our business may be adversely affected.
We rely and expect to continue to rely on a combination of confidentiality and license agreements with our employees, consultants and third parties with whom we have relationships, as well as trademark, copyright and trade secret protection laws, to protect our proprietary rights. We may also seek to enforce our proprietary rights through court proceedings. We may file trademark applications from time to time. These applications may not be approved, third parties may challenge any trademarks issued to or held by us, third parties may knowingly or unknowingly infringe our trademarks and other proprietary rights, and we may not be able to prevent infringement or misappropriation without substantial expense to us.
We currently hold various domain names, including www.gaia.com and www.gaiamtv.com. Failure to protect our domain names could adversely affect our reputation and make it more difficult for users to find our website and our service. We may be unable, without significant cost or at all, to prevent third parties from acquiring domain names that are similar to, infringe upon or otherwise decrease the value of our trademarks and other proprietary rights.
Intellectual property claims against us could be costly and result in the loss of significant rights related to, among other things, our website, title selection processes, content and marketing activities.
Our intellectual property rights extend to our technology, business processes and the content on our website. We use the intellectual property of third parties in marketing and providing our services through contractual and other rights. From time to time, third parties may allege that we have violated their intellectual property rights. If we are unable to obtain sufficient rights, successfully defend our use, or develop non-infringing technology and content or otherwise alter our business practices on a timely basis in response to claims of infringement, misappropriation, misuse or other violation of third-party intellectual property rights, our business and competitive position may be adversely affected.
Many companies devote significant resources to developing patents that could potentially affect many aspects of our business. There are numerous patents that broadly claim means and methods of conducting business on the internet. We have not searched patents relative to our technology. Defending ourselves against intellectual property claims, whether they are with or without merit or are determined in our favor, will result in costly litigation and diversion of technical and management personnel. Infringement claims also may result in our inability to use our current website, streaming technology, our recommendation and personalization technology or inability to market our service. As a result of disputes, we may have to develop non-infringing technology, enter into royalty or licensing agreements, adjust our merchandising or marketing activities or take other actions to resolve the claims. These actions, if required, may be costly or unavailable on terms acceptable to us.
Piracy of video, including digital and internet piracy, could adversely affect our business.
Video piracy is extensive in many parts of the world and has been made easier by technological advances and the conversion of video into digital formats. These trends facilitate the creation, transmission and sharing of high-quality unauthorized copies of content on DVDs, Blu-ray discs, and the internet. We may have to implement elaborate and costly security and anti-piracy measures, which could result in significant expenses and losses of revenue. We cannot provide absolute assurance that security and anti-piracy measures will prevent the piracy of our content. The proliferation of unauthorized copies of our content could have an adverse effect on our business, by reducing the revenues we receive from our subscription service.
Risks Related to Litigation, Regulatory Proceedings and Government Regulation
We may be subject to litigation or regulatory proceedings that could cause us to incur substantial losses.
From time to time during the normal course of operating our businesses, we are subject to various litigation claims, regulatory proceedings and legal disputes. Some of these matters may not be covered under our insurance policies, or
13
our insurance carriers may seek to deny coverage. As a result, we might be required to incur significant legal fees, which may have a material adverse effect on our financial position. In addition, because we cannot accurately predict the outcome of any dispute, it is possible that, as a result of current and/or future matters, we will be subject to adverse judgments or settlements that could significantly reduce our earnings or result in losses.
If government regulations relating to the internet or other areas of our business change, we may need to alter the manner in which we conduct our business or incur greater operating expenses.
The adoption or modification of laws or regulations relating to the internet or other areas of our business could limit or otherwise adversely affect the manner in which we currently conduct our business. In addition, the continued growth and development of the market for online commerce may lead to more stringent consumer protection laws, which may impose additional burdens on us. If we are required to comply with new regulations or legislation or new interpretations of existing regulations or legislation, this compliance could cause us to incur additional expenses or alter our business model.
The adoption or modification of any laws or regulations that adversely affect the growth, popularity or use of the internet, including laws impacting internet neutrality, could decrease the demand for our service and increase our cost of doing business. For example, as a result of the repeal of internet neutrality regulations in the United States, broadband internet access providers may be able to charge web-based services such as ours for priority access to members, which could result in increased costs and a loss of existing users, impairment of our ability to attract new users, and material adverse effects on our business and opportunities for growth. Additionally, as we expand internationally, government regulation concerning the internet, and in particular, network neutrality, may be nascent or non-existent. Within such a regulatory environment, coupled with potentially significant political and economic power of local network operators, we could experience discriminatory or anti-competitive practices that could impede our growth, cause us to incur additional expense or otherwise negatively affect our business.
Risks Related to International Operations
We could be subject to economic, political, regulatory and other risks arising from international operations.
Operating in international markets requires significant resources and management attention and will subject us to regulatory, economic and political risks that may be different from and incremental to those in the United States. In addition to the risks that we face in the United States, our international operations may involve risks that could adversely affect our business, including the following: the need to adapt our content and user interfaces for specific cultural and language differences, including licensing a certain portion of our content library before we have developed a full appreciation for its performance within a given territory; difficulties and costs associated with staffing and managing foreign operations; management distraction; international conflicts, including war, civil disturbances and terrorist attacks; political or social unrest and economic instability; public health issues such as pandemics or epidemics; compliance with U.S. anti-corruption laws, export controls and economic sanctions, including tariffs, and local laws prohibiting corrupt payments to government officials; unexpected changes in regulatory requirements; less favorable foreign intellectual property laws; adverse tax consequences such as those related to repatriation of cash from foreign jurisdictions into the United States, non-income related taxes, changes in tax laws or their interpretations, or the application of judgment in determining our global provision for income taxes and other tax liabilities given inter-company transactions and calculations where the ultimate tax determination is uncertain; fluctuations in currency exchange rates, which could impact revenues and expenses of our international operations and expose us to foreign currency exchange rate risk; profit repatriation and other restrictions on the transfer of funds; differing payment processing systems as well as consumer use and acceptance of electronic payment methods, such as credit and debit cards; new and different sources of competition; different and more stringent user protection, data protection, privacy and other laws; and availability of reliable broadband connectivity and wide area networks in targeted areas for expansion.
Our failure to manage any of these risks successfully could harm our international operations and our overall business, and results of our operations.
We must comply with indirect tax laws in multiple jurisdictions. Taxing authorities have in the past and may successfully in the future assert that we should have collected or in the future should collect non-income related taxes,
14
and we could be subject to liability with respect to past or future sales, which could adversely affect our business. Our operations are routinely subject to audit by tax authorities in various countries. Many countries have indirect tax systems where the sale and purchase of goods and services are subject to tax based on the transaction value. Several taxing jurisdictions have presented or threatened us with assessments, alleging that we are required to collect and remit certain taxes there. While we believe we are in compliance with local laws, we cannot assure that tax and customs authorities will agree with our reporting positions and upon audit, such tax and customs authorities may assess additional taxes, duties, interest, and penalties against us. We also expect additional jurisdictions may make similar assessments or pass similar new laws in the future, and any of the jurisdictions where we have sales may apply more rigorous enforcement efforts or take more aggressive positions in the future that could result in greater tax liability allegations. Such tax assessments, penalties and interest or future requirements by any government agencies related to indirect tax laws could harm our international operations and our overall business, and results of our operations.
Risks Related to Liquidity
We may seek additional capital that may result in shareholder dilution or that may have rights senior to those of our common shareholders.
From time to time, we may seek to obtain additional capital, either through equity, equity-linked or debt securities. Our cash flows provided by our operating activities have been positive since 2020. To the extent we are unable to maintain positive cash flows from operations, we may seek additional capital. The decision to obtain additional capital will depend on, among other things, our business plans, operating performance and condition of the capital markets. If we raise additional funds through the issuance of equity, equity-linked or debt securities, our shareholders may experience dilution, and such securities may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to the rights of our common stock. Any large equity or equity-linked offering could also negatively impact our stock price.
Risks Related to Human Resources
We may lose key employees or may be unable to hire qualified employees.
We rely on the continued service and performance of our senior management. In our industry, there is substantial and continuous competition for highly skilled business, product development, technical and other personnel. Hiring qualified management is difficult due to the limited number of qualified professionals in our industry. Failure to recruit, attract and retain personnel, particularly management personnel, could materially harm our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
Risks Related to Ownership of Our Class A Common Stock
Our founder and chairman, Jirka Rysavy, has voting control over us.
Mr. Rysavy holds 100% of our 5,400,000 outstanding shares of Class B common stock and also owns 291,682 shares of Class A common stock. The shares of Class B common stock are convertible into shares of Class A common stock at any time. Each share of Class B common stock has ten votes per share, and each share of Class A common stock has one vote per share. Consequently, Mr. Rysavy holds approximately 74% of our voting stock and is able to exert substantial influence over and control matters requiring approval by shareholders, including the election of directors, increasing our authorized capital stock, or a merger or sale of substantially all of our assets. As a result of Mr. Rysavy's control of us, no change of control can occur without Mr. Rysavy's consent.
Our business is subject to reporting requirements that continue to evolve and change, which could continue to require significant compliance effort and resources.
Because our common stock is publicly traded, we are subject to certain rules and regulations of federal, state and financial market exchange entities charged with the protection of investors and the oversight of companies whose securities are publicly traded. These entities, including the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, the Securities and Exchange Commission and NASDAQ, periodically issue new requirements and regulations. Legislative bodies also review and revise applicable laws. As interpretation and implementation of these laws and rules and
15
promulgation of new regulations continues, we will continue to be required to commit significant financial and managerial resources and incur additional expenses.
Risks Related to our Ownership of Real Property
Liability relating to environmental matters may impact the value of our real property.
We may be subject to environmental liabilities arising from our ownership of real property. Under various U.S. federal, state and local laws, an owner or operator of real property may become liable for the costs of removal of certain hazardous substances released on its property. These laws often impose liability without regard to whether the owner or operator knew of, or was responsible for, the release of such hazardous substances.
The presence of hazardous substances on real property owned by us may adversely affect our ability to sell such real property and we may incur substantial remediation costs, thus harming our financial condition. The discovery of material environmental liabilities attached to such real property could adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
Any of these events, in combination or individually, could disrupt our business and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

On September 9, 2020, our wholly owned subsidiary Boulder Road LLC ("Boulder Road") sold a 50% undivided interest in a portion of our Colorado campus to Westside Boulder, LLC ("Westside"). Boulder Road retained a 50% undivided interest in the property as well as full ownership of our studio and production facilities. In connection with the transaction, Boulder Road and Westside leased the property pursuant to a master lease, which was amended effective December 8, 2025 (together, the "Lease Amendment"). The Lease Amendment, among other things, extended the term through September 30, 2035, with two five-year extensions. Gaia guaranteed Boulder Road's obligations under the master lease. Our Colorado facility is subject to a $11.4 million mortgage loan agreement with KeyBank as lender, with a remaining balance of $11.4 million as of December 31, 2025.

Year Ended December 31, 2025 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 2024
Revenues, netincreased $9.7 million, or 10.9%, to $99.0 million during 2025, compared to $89.3 million during 2024. This was primarily driven by an increase in member count as well as an increase in Average Revenue Per User ("ARPU").
Cost of revenuesincreased $0.4 million, or 3.2%, to $12.8 million during 2025 from $12.4 million during 2024, with gross profit margin of 87.1% in the current year compared to 86.1% in 2024. The increase in the cost of revenues is primarily related to timing of media library amortization. Gross profit margin increased during 2025 from 2024 primarily due to improvements in ARPU.
20
Selling and operating expensesincreased $7.1 million, or 9.5%, to $81.9 million during 2025 from $74.8 million during 2024 and, as a percentage of revenues, decreased to 82.7% during 2025 from 83.8% during 2024. The increase was driven primarily by an increase in marketing expense.
Corporate, general and administration expensesincreased by $1.6 million, or 20.5%, to $9.4 million during 2025 up from $7.8 million during 2024 and, as a percentage of net revenue, increased to 9.5% during 2025 from 8.7% during 2024. The increase was primarily driven by legal fees, customer acquisition costs and higher compensation costs during 2025.
Income tax expense (benefit)reflects a current year provision of $0.2 million compared to the prior year provision of $(0.0) million from income taxes due to an increase in the current and deferred tax liability.
Quarterly and Seasonal Fluctuations
The following tables set forth our unaudited results of operations for each of the quarters in 2025 and 2024. The unaudited financial information includes all adjustments, consisting solely of normal recurring accruals and adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations for the quarters presented. You should read this financial information in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Our member base growth reflects seasonal variations driven primarily by periods when consumers typically spend more time indoors and, as a result, tend to increase their viewing. This drives quarterly variations in our spending on member acquisition efforts and the number of net new subscribers we add each quarter but does not result in a corresponding seasonality in net revenue. As we continue to expand internationally, we also expect regional seasonality trends to demonstrate more predictable seasonal patterns as our service offering in each market becomes more established and we have a longer history to assess such patterns.
Critical Accounting Estimates
We prepare our consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, which require us to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements in Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K summarizes the significant accounting policies and methods used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements.
We believe the following to be critical accounting policies whose application has a material impact on our financial presentation, and involve a higher degree of complexity, as they require us to make judgments and estimates about matters that are inherently uncertain.
Media library
Media library represents the lower of unamortized cost or net realizable value of capitalized costs to produce our proprietary media content, rights obtained through license arrangements and digital media content acquired through asset purchases or business combinations.
22
The value of our produced media library consists of capitalized costs incurred to produce original media content, including salary and overhead costs of our in-house production team and other third-party costs.
Our licensed media library is obtained through license arrangements. Generally, we pay an advance against a percentage royalty or an upfront license fee in exchange for the distribution rights for a specific license window, but we may also obtain a license for a fixed fee for perpetuity. These payments are capitalized at the time of payment. Certain agreements also include an ongoing royalty obligation, which entitles the licensor to a share of the revenues generated from the licensed works. These expenses are calculated and accrued on a monthly basis and included in costs of revenues. We pay these accrued royalties on a quarterly basis and therefore have included the related liability in accrued liabilities.
The value of our acquired media library consists of the acquisition date fair value of media assets obtained through asset acquisitions and business combinations recorded at the estimated fair value of the titles acquired, which is based on a number of factors, including the number of titles, the total hours of content, the production quality and age of the acquired media assets.
We amortize our media library in cost of revenues on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the license period or the estimated useful life of the titles, which typically ranges from 12 to 90 months. The amortization period begins with the first month of availability on our service.
Management reviews content viewership to determine whether viewing patterns correlate with initial estimates supporting the amortization period utilized. If current estimates indicate that viewing is significantly higher in earlier periods relative to the remaining amortization period, we will begin amortizing the respective titles on an accelerated basis over the amortization period. Due to our exclusive content and growing member base, our viewership trends have continued to support both the amortization period and the straight-line basis of amortization with no additional amortization recorded.
Our media library is reviewed for impairment at the film group level when an event or change in circumstances indicates that the carrying amount of the film group may not be recoverable. Recoverability of the film group is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of the film group to estimated discounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the film group. If the carrying amount exceeds the estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value. No impairment charges were recorded during 2025 or 2024.
Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase consideration over the estimated fair value of assets acquired less liabilities assumed in a business acquisition. We have only one reporting unit; therefore, goodwill is assessed at the enterprise level. We review goodwill for impairment annually as of October 1 or more frequently if indicators of impairment are identified. We have the option of first assessing qualitative factors to determine whether events and circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that the estimated fair value of goodwill is less than its carrying amount. If the estimated fair value of goodwill exceeds its carrying amount, we consider the goodwill to not be impaired. If the carrying amount of goodwill exceeds its estimated fair value, we use both a comparable market approach and an income approach to test for potential impairment. The market approach follows the guideline public company method to establish valuation multiples for comparison. The income approach follows a traditional discounted cash flow model. Primary assumptions for each approach include revenue projections, operating expenses, discount rate, control premium, and terminal growth rate. Projections are dependent on management assumptions, which are partly based on the Company's historical experience. The results of these approaches are evaluated against the Company's market capitalization for reasonableness. The process of evaluating the potential impairment of goodwill is highly subjective and requires significant judgment at many points during the analysis. Application of alternative assumptions and definitions could yield significantly different results. During 2025 and 2024, no impairment of goodwill was recognized.
Income Taxes and Deferred Tax Balances
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recorded with respect to temporary differences in the accounting treatment of items for financial reporting purposes and for income tax purposes. The tax expense or benefit related to ordinary income or loss must be computed at an annual effective tax rate and the tax expense or benefit related to all other items must be individually computed and recognized as a discrete item when it occurs. Where, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some amount of recorded deferred tax assets will not be realized, a valuation allowance is established for the amount that, in management's judgment, is sufficient to reduce the deferred tax asset to an amount that is more likely than not to be realized.
23
As we have historically had cumulative losses, we have not released the current valuation allowance. The timing of the release of the valuation allowance will be dependent on cumulative income for a period of 36 months and an expectation that we will not have cumulative losses in the future.
A tax position must meet a minimum probability threshold before a financial statement benefit is recognized. The minimum threshold is defined as a tax position that is more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by the applicable taxing authority, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefit to be recognized is measured as the largest amount of benefit that is greater than fifty percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement.
Non-Income Taxes
The Company accrues for non-income tax assessments from foreign jurisdictions related to prior periods and recognizes the expense within selling and operating, when deemed probable and estimable. Once the requirement to remit non-income taxes to foreign jurisdictions has been established, we present revenues net of the non-income taxes collected from members and remit such amounts to foreign tax authorities.
Share-Based Compensation
We recognize compensation cost for share-based awards based on the estimated fair value of the award on the date of grant. We measure compensation cost at the grant date based on the estimated fair value of the award and recognize compensation cost upon the probable attainment of a specified performance condition over the estimated performance period or for time-based awards over the service period. Since 2019, we have granted restricted stock units, for which we utilize the market price of our common stock on the date of grant to estimate fair value. In May 2025, we awarded performance restricted-stock units ("PSUs"), for which we utilized the market price of our common stock on the date of grant to estimate fair value.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our capital needs arise from working capital required to fund operations, capital expenditures related to acquisition and development of media content, development and marketing of our digital platforms, acquisitions of new businesses and other investments, replacements, expansions and improvements to our infrastructure and future growth. These capital requirements depend on numerous factors, including the rate of market acceptance of our offerings, our ability to expand our customer base, the cost of ongoing upgrades to our offerings, our expenditures for marketing and other factors. Additionally, we will continue to pursue opportunities to expand our media libraries, evaluate possible investments in businesses and technologies and increase our marketing as needed.
On December 19, 2025, Boulder Road and Westside (collectively, the "Borrower") entered into a business loan agreement with KeyBank National Association ("KeyBank"), as lender, providing for a mortgage loan in the principal amount of $11.4 million (the "2025 Mortgage Loan"). The promissory note evidencing the 2025 Mortgage Loan bears interest at a fixed rate of 5.090% per annum, matures on December 19, 2030, and is secured by a deed of trust on our corporate campus, a portion of which is owned by Boulder Road and Westside as tenants-in-common and the remainder of which is owned by Boulder Road. The loan proceeds from the 2025 Mortgage Loan were used to refinance the 2020 Mortgage Loan. Westside and Boulder Road each received 50% of the proceeds and are each responsible for 50% of the monthly installments. The 2025 Mortgage Loan contains customary affirmative and negative covenants (each with customary exceptions) for loans of this type, including limitations on the Borrower's ability to incur liens or debt, make investments, or engage in certain fundamental changes, and is fully guaranteed by Gaia. Additionally, the 2025 Mortgage Loan requires Boulder Road to maintain a minimum Debt Service Ratio - Pre Distribution of 1.35 to 1.00 annually and a minimum Debt Service Ratio - Post Distribution of 1.15 to 1.00 annually. As of December 31, 2025, the Borrower was in compliance with all related covenants. The 2025 Mortgage Loan has a remaining balance of $11.4 million as of December 31, 2025.
On December 28, 2020, the Borrower entered into a loan agreement with First Interstate Bank (formerly Great Western Bank), as lender, providing for a mortgage loan in the principal amount of $13.0 million (the "2020 Mortgage Loan"). The promissory note evidencing the 2020 Mortgage Loan bore interest at a fixed rate of 3.75% per annum, and was scheduled to mature on December 28, 2025 before being refinanced by the Borrower with the proceeds from the 2025 Mortgage Loan.
24
On July 25, 2025 (the "Closing Date"), the Company, entered into a Second Amendment to the Credit and Security Agreement (the "Amendment") among the Company, the subsidiary guarantors party thereto, and KeyBank National Association (the "Lender"), which amends that certain Credit and Security Agreement, dated as of August 25, 2022 (as amended prior to the Closing Date, the "Prior Credit Agreement"), among the Company, the subsidiary guarantors from time to time party thereto, and the Lender.
The Amendment amended the Prior Credit Agreement to, among other things, (i) refinance and extend the prior revolving credit facility with a revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of up to $10 million (which may be increased up to $15 million) that matures on August 25, 2028, the loan proceeds of which may be used for working capital, general corporate purposes, and permitted acquisitions, (ii) modify the interest rate applicable to revolving loan advances to 1.75% per annum for advances that are SOFR loans and 0.75% per annum for advances that are base rate loans and eliminate the 0.10% per annum SOFR index adjustment, and (iii) provide for a maximum leverage ratio of 2.00 to 1.00 for each computation period. Borrowings under the Amendment are available for working capital and general corporate purposes and permitted acquisitions. There was no outstanding balance as of December 31, 2025.
On August 25, 2022, the Company entered into the Prior Credit Agreement, which provided for a revolving credit facility in an aggregate amount of $10 million and was amended by the Amendment on July 25, 2025. There were no outstanding borrowings under the Prior Credit Agreement as of December 31, 2024.
On September 30, 2025, Gaia entered into a cost method investment in Orion Architect LLC ("Orion") for $2 million according to ASC Topic 321. The Company has less than 10% ownership and does not have significant influence over the investee as there is no representation on the investee's board of directors, no participation in policy-making decisions, and no material intercompany transactions. The initial valuation of this investment will be made at historical cost and adjusted only for impairment or observable price changes from comparable transactions. No unrealized gain/loss will be recognized unless an observable transaction occurs. The investment will be subject to impairment testing and any permanent declines in value will be recognized in net income.
We began to generate positive cash flows from operations since 2020 and have continued to generate positive cash flows from operations each subsequent quarter. We expect to continue generating positive cash flows from operations during 2026. We generated approximately $5.7 million in cash flows from operations during 2025, which helped fund the ongoing investment in our content library and the technology platform we use to deliver the content to our members.
We intend to invest approximately 15%-20% of our revenues each year to support continued investment in our content library and technology platform. This spending is entirely discretionary in nature with no contractual commitments and due to our in-house production capabilities, we can scale our content investment based on the cash flows generated from operations if necessary to ensure we have sufficient liquidity to operate our business into the future. As of December 31, 2025, our cash balance was $13.5 million.
As described in Note 15, in April 2024, the Company entered into a series of transactions with its subsidiary, Igniton, Inc., a Colorado corporation ("Igniton"), and a third-party entity to purchase a perpetual license for a total of $16.2 million of consideration comprised of $10.2 million of cash and $5.0 million of common stock of Igniton and $1.0 million of the Company's equity security investment in Telomeron (the "License Purchase"). The license allows the Company to utilize the technology developed by the third party. This license is recorded within the Technology license, net line item on the consolidated balance sheets. The License Purchase was primarily funded through an equity financing through Igniton, which raised $6.8 million of cash and $5.0 million in Igniton stock issuance from third-party investors.
During 2025, Igniton raised $7.4 million of private common equity financing, including $2.0 million from Gaia, at an implied pre-money valuation of approximately $100 million. This valuation is based on the terms of the private financing and does not represent a remeasurement of fair value under GAAP. On December 16, 2025, Igniton closed a sale of 194,782 shares of Igniton common stock (the "2025 Igniton Shares") to certain funds managed by AWM Investment Company, Inc. ("AWM") for total net proceeds of approximately $0.56 million. Igniton's total proceeds included an approximately $0.07 million premium that was passed to the Company in exchange for the issuance to AWM of a non-transferable right granting AWM a one-time ability to sell the 2025 Igniton Shares to the Company for the total net proceeds paid (the "2025 Option"), payable at the Company's option, in cash or shares of the Company's Class A common stock having a value per share equal to the trailing 5-day average Volume-Weighted Average Price prior to the exercise of the 2025 Option. The amounts have been recorded within Additional paid-in capital and Noncontrolling interests within the Consolidated Statements of Changes in Equity.
25
In the normal course of our business, we investigate, evaluate and discuss acquisition, joint venture, minority investment, strategic relationship and other business combination opportunities in our market. For any future investment, acquisition or joint venture opportunities, we may consider using then-available liquidity, issuing equity securities or incurring indebtedness.
While there can be no assurances, we believe our cash on hand, cash expected to be generated from operations, and potential capital raising capabilities should be sufficient to fund our operations on both a short-term and long-term basis. However, our projected cash needs may change as a result of acquisitions, product development, unforeseen operational difficulties or other factors.
Class A Common Stock Offering
In February 2025, we entered into an underwriting agreement with Roth Capital Partners, LLC and Lake Street Capital Markets, LLC (the "Underwriters") relating to the offer and sale of 1,600,000 shares of our Class A common stock ($0.0001 par value) (the "Shares"). We sold the Shares to the Underwriters at the public offering price of $5.00 per share, less underwriting discounts and commissions, resulting in net proceeds of $7.0 million. The offering was made pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-3. We provided a 45-day option to the Underwriters to purchase up to an additional 240,000 Shares at $5.00 per share, less underwriting discounts and commissions (the "Over-Allotment Option"). On March 7, 2025, the Underwriters elected to waive the right to exercise the Over-Allotment Option.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of Gaia, Inc.
Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Gaia, Inc. and subsidiaries (collectively the "Company") as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in equity, and cash flows, for the years then ended, and the related notes (collectively, referred to as the "consolidated financial statements"). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows as of and for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2025, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinion
These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("PCAOB") and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical Audit Matter
The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.
Revenue Recognition of Partner and Other Revenue - Note 2
As described in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company's revenue consists primarily of member subscription fees paid by the customers directly to the Company. The Company also recognizes Partner Revenue for member subscription fees that are paid through a third-party partner. The Company recognizes Partner Revenue on a net basis for relationships where partners have the primary relationship, including billing and service delivery, with the customer. The Company recognizes Partner Revenue on a gross basis for customers whose primary relationship is with Gaia. Revenues earned from sources other than monthly subscription fees and Partner Revenues, Other Revenues, are also disclosed in Note 2 and are recognized in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers ("ASC 606").
As part of our risk assessment procedures, we determined that Partner Revenue and Other Revenue had the most complexity related to its revenue recognition.
28
How the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit
Our audit procedures related to revenue recognition of Partner and Other Revenue related to the determination of the accuracy of amounts recorded in the consolidated financial statements included the following, among others:

Notes to ConsolidatedFinancial Statements
References in this report to "we", "us", "our", the "Company" or "Gaia" refer to Gaia, Inc. and its subsidiaries, unless we indicate otherwise.
1. Organization and Nature of Operations
Gaia, Inc. operates a global digital video subscription service and online community that strives to connect a unique and underserved member base. Our digital content is available to our members on most internet-connected devices anytime, anywhere commercial free. Through our online Gaia subscription service, our members have unlimited access to a vast library of inspiring films, cutting edge documentaries, interviews, yoga classes, transformation related content, and more - exclusively available to our members for digital streaming. A subscription also allows our members to download and view files from our library without being actively connected to the internet. We were incorporated under the laws of the State of Colorado on July 7, 1988. During the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, we also had certain operations that are presented as discontinued operations in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. See Note 16 for further discussion.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
We have prepared the accompanying consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or GAAP, and they include our accounts and those of our subsidiaries, over which we exercise control. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
Reclassifications
Certain prior year amounts in the accompanying consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on previously reported net income, total assets, total liabilities, stockholders' equity, or cash flows.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash represents on-demand accounts with financial institutions that are denominated in U.S. dollars. We consider financial instruments purchased with an original maturity of 90 days or less to be cash equivalents. We also classify transactions that we expect to settle within several days as cash equivalents.
Concentration of Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist principally of cash and accounts receivable. Risks associated with cash within the United States are mitigated by banking with federally insured, creditworthy institutions; however, there are balances with these institutions that are greater than the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance limit. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and maintains allowances for possible losses as considered necessary by management.

Property and Equipment, Net
We state property and equipment at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. We include in property and equipment the cost of internal-use software, including software and generative AI development used in connection with our websites. We expense all costs related to the development of internal-use software and generative AI development except those incurred during the application development stage. We capitalize the costs we incur during the application development stage and amortize them on the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the software. We compute depreciation and amortization of property and equipment on the straight-line method over estimated useful lives. We depreciate building improvements over the shorter of the estimated useful lives of the assets or remaining life of the building. See Note 4 for a description of estimated useful lives. Depreciation and amortization expenses are included in selling and operating expense, and corporate, general and administration expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.
Media Library, Net
Media library represents the lower of unamortized cost or net realizable value of capitalized costs in accordance with ASC Topic 926 including direct production costs, talent fees, production crew, direct overhead allocable to production, and post-production costs, to produce our proprietary media content, rights obtained through license arrangements and digital media content acquired through asset purchases or business combinations. Payments for content, including additions to media library and the changes in related liabilities, are classified within 'Net cash provided by operating activities' on the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows.
We amortize our media library in cost of revenues on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the license period or the estimated useful life of the titles, which typically ranges from <_ix3a_nonnumeric id="F_19c9d9e6-3494-4d2f-ae8a-b30eaa1dca69" contextref="C_9dd2b684-d680-4d34-86b3-4820cb6eff75" name="gaia:LicensePeriodOrEstimatedUsefulLifeOfMediaLibrary" format="ixt-sec:durmonth">12to <_ix3a_nonnumeric id="F_7a5f9f9c-8d7b-49c5-83e3-885224cc5c1f" contextref="C_17782013-9b29-4d2f-a5f0-1432e2a3b6e4" name="gaia:LicensePeriodOrEstimatedUsefulLifeOfMediaLibrary" format="ixt-sec:durwordsen">90 months. <_ix3a_nonnumeric id="F_8fa62852-091a-4b38-8d5f-d4b2b7aafa3a" contextref="C_6b0ecfc7-44fe-4cee-b20d-706a02dc6edf" name="gaia:AmortizationPeriodDescription">The amortization period begins with the first month of availability on our service.Produced media in progress consists of produced media costs that have not yet been placed in service.
Our media library is reviewed at the film group level for impairment when an event or change in circumstances indicates that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Recoverability is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of the film group to estimated discounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the film group. If the carrying amount exceeds the estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value. <_ix3a_nonfraction id="F_9597943c-bd0c-4b94-bfb7-f072f00dc321" contextref="C_7145c4b7-9417-4d7a-a927-7f49bd184f0b" name="us-gaap:AssetImpairmentCharges" unitref="U_USD" decimals="INF" format="ixt-sec:numwordsen"><_ix3a_nonfraction id="F_d078d9bb-571e-4f34-8a5a-518d0c898da2" contextref="C_0d292f25-228f-4f82-9064-7fe398fed332" name="us-gaap:AssetImpairmentCharges" unitref="U_USD" decimals="INF" format="ixt-sec:numwordsen">Noimpairment charges related to the media library were recognized in 2025 and 2024.
Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired in business combinations and is not amortized. Goodwill is tested for impairment at the reporting unit level at least annually as of October 1, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that goodwill may be impaired.
Annual Impairment Assessment
For the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company performed its annual goodwill impairment assessment utilizing the qualitative assessment option in accordance with ASC 350-20-35-3A through 35-3G. Under this guidance, the Company evaluated relevant events and circumstances to determine whether it was more likely than not (i.e., greater than 50 percent likelihood) that the fair value of its reporting unit was less than its carrying amount.
In performing the qualitative assessment, management considered, among other factors:
35
Based on the totality of the qualitative factors evaluated, management concluded that it was not more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit was less than its carrying amount as of the assessment date. Accordingly, the Company determined that it was not necessary to perform a quantitative goodwill impairment test. <_ix3a_nonfraction id="F_7015a1c3-eb32-4a32-bbbe-d975c37a398a" contextref="C_6b0ecfc7-44fe-4cee-b20d-706a02dc6edf" name="us-gaap:GoodwillImpairmentLoss" unitref="U_USD" decimals="INF" format="ixt-sec:numwordsen"><_ix3a_nonfraction id="F_48380fc0-6c5a-4041-a4f0-21a5a3124c6b" contextref="C_277c689d-079e-4781-9ed3-9ac54478c606" name="us-gaap:GoodwillImpairmentLoss" unitref="U_USD" decimals="INF" format="ixt-sec:numwordsen">Nogoodwill impairment charges were recorded during the years ended December 31, 2025 or December 31, 2024.
Long-Lived Assets
We evaluate the carrying value of long-lived assets held and used, other than goodwill, when events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. We consider the carrying value of a long-lived asset impaired when the total projected undiscounted cash flows from such asset are separately identifiable and are less than the carrying value. We recognize a loss based on the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the estimated fair value of the long-lived asset. We determine the estimated fair value primarily using the projected cash flows from the asset discounted at a rate commensurate with the risk involved.

Income Taxes
We provide for income taxes pursuant to the asset and liability method. The asset and liability method requires recognition of deferred income taxes based on temporary differences between financial reporting and income tax bases of assets and liabilities, using current enacted income tax rates and regulations. These differences will result in taxable income or deductions in future years when the reported amount of the asset or liability is recovered or settled, respectively. Considerable judgment is required in determining when these events may occur and whether recovery of an asset, including the utilization of a net operating loss or other carryforward prior to its expiration, is more likely than not.
The Company does not recognize certain tax benefits from uncertain tax positions within the provision for income taxes. The Company may recognize a tax benefit only if it is more likely than not the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the consolidated financial statements from such positions are then measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon settlement. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense. See Note 13 to the consolidated financial statements for further information regarding income taxes.
Non-Income Taxes
The Company accrues for non-income tax assessments from foreign jurisdictions related to prior periods and recognizes the expense within selling and operating, when deemed probable and estimable. Once the requirement to remit non-income taxes to foreign jurisdictions has been established, we present revenues net of the non-income taxes collected from members and remit such amounts to foreign tax authorities.
Share repurchases
The Company repurchases shares of the Company's common shares from time to time. Purchases may be carried out through open market transactions, negotiated purchases or otherwise, at times in such amounts as the Company deems appropriate. Shares repurchased under such authorizations are held in treasury, including issuances under various employee stock-based award plans. Repurchased shares are classified as treasury shares and are presented as a deduction from total equity. When treasury shares are subsequently reissued or otherwise disposed of, the amount received is recognized as an increase in treasury stock, and any difference between the amount received and the carrying amount of the treasury shares is recorded within additional paid-in capital to the extent of prior related credits, with any excess reclassified to accumulated deficit.
Revenue Recognition
Revenues consist primarily of subscription fees paid by our members. We present revenues net of the taxes that are collected from members and remitted to governmental authorities. Members are billed in advance and revenues are recognized ratably over the subscription term. Deferred revenues consist of subscription fees collected from members that have not been earned and
36
are recognized ratably over the remaining term of the subscription. We recognize revenue on a net basis for relationships where our Partners have the primary relationship, including billing and service delivery, with the member. We recognize revenue on a gross basis for members whose primary relationship is with Gaia. Payments made to Partners to assist in promoting our service on their platforms are expensed to marketing expenses in the period incurred. We do not allow access to our service to be provided as part of a bundle by any of our Partners.
As of December 31, 2025, total deferred revenue was $<_ix3a_nonfraction id="F_4f81ff50-5c05-44a1-884d-4e2585ce771d" contextref="C_ce22c639-2cd6-4e0f-92d5-1c0f900a3f59" name="us-gaap:ContractWithCustomerLiabilityCurrent" unitref="U_USD" scale="6" decimals="-5" format="ixt:num-dot-decimal">18.5millionand is expected to be recognized as revenue within the next 12 months.

Business Combinations
Gaia recognizesidentifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their acquisition date fair values. Goodwill is measured as the excess of the consideration transferred over the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed on the acquisition date. While we use our best estimates and assumptions as part of the purchase price allocation process to accurately value assets acquired and liabilities assumed, these estimates are inherently uncertain and subject to refinement. The authoritative guidance allows a measurement period of up to one year from the date of acquisition to make adjustments to the preliminary allocation of the purchase price. As a result, during the measurement period we may record adjustments to the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, with the corresponding offset to goodwill to the extent that it identifies adjustments to the preliminary purchase price allocation. Upon conclusion of the measurement period or final determination of the values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, whichever comes first, any subsequent adjustments will be recorded to the consolidated statement of operations. For further information, see Note 5 Goodwill and Other Assets, Net.
Marketing
Marketing costs consist primarily of advertising expenses, which include promotional activities such as online advertising and public relations expenditures. Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and included in selling and operating expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. During 2025 and 2024, we expensed marketing and advertising costs of $<_ix3a_nonfraction id="F_a13d5883-772b-4ca5-82f1-eab193760885" contextref="C_6b0ecfc7-44fe-4cee-b20d-706a02dc6edf" name="us-gaap:MarketingAndAdvertisingExpense" unitref="U_USD" scale="6" decimals="-5" format="ixt:num-dot-decimal">44.0million and $<_ix3a_nonfraction id="F_ab7136a8-6a7a-46c4-b243-8423f4f7da82" contextref="C_277c689d-079e-4781-9ed3-9ac54478c606" name="us-gaap:MarketingAndAdvertisingExpense" unitref="U_USD" scale="6" decimals="-5">37.9million, respectively.
Share-Based Compensation
Werecognize compensation cost for share-based awards based on the estimated fair value of the award on date of grant. We measure compensation cost at the grant date based on the estimated fair value of the award and recognize compensation cost upon the probable attainment of a specified performance condition over the estimated performance period or for time-based awards over the service period. Since 2019, for certain executive officers, the Company grants restricted stock units ("RSUs") and beginning in 2025, we granted performance-based restricted stock units ("PSUs"), for which we utilize the market price of our common stock on the date of grant to estimate fair value. We account for forfeitures as they occur.
Segment Information
Gaia's Chief Executive Officer, Kiersten Medvedich, is the chief operating decision maker, who reviews Gaia's financial information presented on a consolidated basis for purposes of allocating resources and evaluating our financial performance. Accordingly, we have determined that we operate in a single reporting segment.
Defined Contribution Plan
We have adopted a defined contribution retirement plan ("the Plan") under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended ("Internal Revenue Code"), which covers substantially all employees. Eligible employees may contribute amounts to the Plan, via payroll withholding, subject to certain limitations. The Plan permits, but does not require, us to make additional matching contributions to the Plan on behalf of all participants in the Plan. The Plan allows us to determine the match contribution percentage, if any.

Fair Value Measurements
Fair value represents the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Assets and liabilities are valued based upon observable and non-observable inputs. Valuations using Level 1 inputs are based on unadjusted quoted prices that are available in active markets for the identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date. Level 2 inputs utilize significant other observable inputs available at the measurement date, other than quoted prices included in Level 1, either directly or indirectly; and valuations using Level 3 inputs are based on significant unobservable inputs that cannot be corroborated by observable market data and reflect the use of significant management judgment. The carrying amounts of our cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and other current liabilities approximate their fair values.
Investments and Other Assets, Net
The Company classifies investments at the acquisition date and re-evaluates the classification at each balance sheet date and when events or changes in circumstances indicate that there is a change in the Company's ability to exercise significant influence. The ability to exercise significant influence over, but not control, the operating and financial policies of the investee is presumed to exist when the Company owns 20% or greater of the voting interests in the investee, but the Company also applies judgment regarding its level of influence over the investee by considering key factors such as representation on the board of directors, participation in policy-making decisions, and material intercompany transactions. The Company accounts for its investments in other entities over which the Company has the ability to exercise significant influence, but not control, using the equity method of accounting.
Under the equity method of accounting, the Company's investment is initially recorded at cost within Investments in Equity Method Investees on the consolidated balance sheets. The Company adjusts its investment for contributions made, its proportionate share of net earnings, declared dividends, and distributions of the investee. To the extent there is a basis difference between the amount invested and the Company's proportionate share of the underlying net assets of the investee, the Company allocates such differences amongst the recorded assets of the investee. The basis differences are amortized on a straight-line basis over the underlying assets' estimated useful lives when calculating the attributable earnings or losses. The Company records in the statements of operations its share of income or loss of the investee, including any amortization of basis differences, within interest and other expense, net, which results in an increase or decrease to the carrying value of the investment. Any dividends received from the investee are recorded as a reduction of the carrying value of the investment.
The Company holds an investment in Telomeron Inc. ("Telomeron") which is recorded at its carrying value as an equity security investment under ASC Topic 321. The Company holds an investment in Orion Architect LLC ("Orion"), which is recorded at its carrying value as a cost method investment according to ASC Topic 321. These investments are classified as Investments and other assets, net on our consolidated balance sheets.
<_ix3a_continuation id="F_95f2f54c-4f7e-4aae-8890-d0f95321fbb9_1">The Company assesses investments for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an investment may not be recoverable. If the investment is determined to have a decline in value deemed to be other than temporary, it is written down to estimated fair value. We did not record any impairment charges on our investments during the years 2025 or 2024.
Leases
The Company accounts for leases under ASC Topic 842. Right-of-use ("ROU") assets and lease liabilities are recognized at the commencement of an arrangement where it is determined at inception that a lease exists. ROU assets represent the right to use an underlying asset for the lease term, and lease liabilities represent the obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. These assets and liabilities are initially recognized based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term calculated using our incremental borrowing rate. Lease terms include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that those options will be exercised.
Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet, and the expense for these short-term leases and for leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Non-lease components are excluded from the ROU asset and lease liability present value computations. The Company's lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.
38
As discussed in Note 7, we entered into an operating lease in connection with the sale of a portion of our corporate campus, which was modified on December 8, 2025. We record the ROU asset for the operating lease term as an asset and our obligation to make lease payments as a liability. Variable lease payments are not included in the lease payments used to measure the lease liability and are expensed as incurred.
Noncontrolling Interest
Gaia holds certain interests in entities where Gaia is the majority owner but not sole owner. These investments are included in our consolidated financial statements. The minority-owned portion of these investments is presented as Noncontrolling Interest ("NCI") on the consolidated financial statements. Any changes of the ownership interest of NCI are accounted for as equity transactions and adjustments in the consolidated financial statements.
Loss Per Share
Basic loss per share is computed using the weighted-average number of outstanding shares of common stock during the period. Diluted loss per share is computed using the weighted-average number of outstanding shares of common stock and, when dilutive, potential shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Potential shares of common stock consist of incremental shares issuable upon the assumed exercise of stock options and vesting of restricted stock units utilizing the treasury stock method.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the accompanying consolidated financial statements and disclosures. Although we base these estimates on our best knowledge of current events and actions that we may undertake in the future, actual results may be different from the estimates.

9. Commitments and Contingencies
From time to time, we are involved in legal proceedings that we consider to be in the normal course of business. We record accruals for losses related to those matters against us that we consider to be probable and that can be reasonably estimated. Based on available information, in the opinion of management, settlements, arbitration awards and final judgments, if any, that are considered probable of being rendered against us in litigation or arbitration in existence at December 31, 2025 and that can be reasonably estimated are either reserved against or would not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
The Company is subject to non-income tax examinations in certain foreign jurisdictions where it provides services to consumers residing in those jurisdictions. A number of these examinations are ongoing and, in certain cases, have resulted in assessments from foreign tax authorities. The Company recognizes an accrual for non-income tax liabilities in foreign jurisdictions when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the exposure can be reasonably estimated. For other foreign jurisdictions where non-income taxes may be due, the Company has determined that it is reasonably possible that additional non-income tax exposures exist. However, because certain examinations are in the early stages and based on the Company's prior experience with foreign tax authorities, the Company is currently unable to reasonably estimate the possible loss or range of loss that may result from these matters.

10. Loss Per Share
Basic loss per share is computed using the weighted-average number of outstanding shares of common stock during the period. Diluted loss per share is computed using the weighted-average number of outstanding shares of common stock and, when dilutive, potential shares of common stock outstanding during the period ("Common stock equivalents"). Common stock equivalents consist of incremental shares issuable upon the assumed exercise of stock options and vesting of restricted stock units, when dilutive, utilizing the treasury stock method.

We excludedthe effect of the below elements from our calculation of diluted loss per share, as their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive, as there were no earnings attributable to common shareholders. Because the Company incurred a net loss for each of the years presented, all potential common shares were anti-dilutive. Accordingly, diluted net loss per share is the same as basic net loss per share for all periods presented.

We recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. We measure the tax benefits recognized in the consolidated financial statements from such a position based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate resolution. The application of income tax law is inherently complex. Laws and regulations in this area are voluminous and are often ambiguous. As such, we are required to make many subjective assumptions and judgments regarding our income tax exposures. Interpretations of and guidance surrounding income tax law and regulations change over
50
time and may result in changes to our subjective assumptions and judgments which can materially affect amounts recognized in our consolidated balance sheets and consolidated statements of operations.
The result of our assessment of our uncertain tax positions did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. Our federal and state tax returns for all years after 2015 are subject to future examination by tax authorities for all our tax jurisdictions. We recognize interest and penalties related to income tax matters in interest and other income (expense) and corporate, general and administrative expenses, respectively.
We operate in a number of tax jurisdictions and are subject to examination of its income tax returns by tax authorities in those jurisdictions who may challenge any item on these returns. Because the tax matters challenged by tax authorities are typically complex, the ultimate outcome of these challenges is uncertain In accordance with ASC Topic 740, we recognize the benefits of uncertain tax positions in our consolidated financial statements only after determining that it is more likely than not that the uncertain tax positions will be sustained.
A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of unrecognized tax benefits is as follows:

In the normal course of business, we are subject to examination by taxing authorities in U.S. Federal and U.S. state jurisdictions. The period subject to examination for our federal return is tax year 2019 and later. We believe that an adequate provision has been made for any adjustments that may result from tax examinations. However, the outcome of tax audits cannot be predicted with certainty. If any issues addressed in our tax audits are resolved in a manner not consistent with management's expectations, we could be required to adjust the provision for income tax in the period such resolution occurs.

Management evaluated events occurring subsequent to December 31, 2025 through March 6, 2026 and determined that no material recognizable subsequent events occurred.

Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure
None.
Item 9A. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K were effective at a reasonable assurance level. Management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, believes the consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, fairly present, in all material respects, our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows at and for the periods presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls
Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal controls will prevent all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within Gaia have been detected.
This Annual Report on Form 10-K does not include an attestation report of the Company's independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting because that requirement under Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 does not apply to smaller reporting companies.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the year ended December 31, 2025, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, the effectiveness of our controls in future periods is uncertain and subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025 using the criteria set forth in 2013 by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in its "Internal Control-Integrated Framework." Our management concluded that, as of December 31, 2025 our internal control over financial reporting was effective.
