Management Commentary

"2025 was a transformational year for RYTHM, Inc., marked by a new name, a new ticker, and a new strategic direction as we expanded our role in the THC category, with RYTHM, Dogwalkers, and Señorita leading the way," said Chairman and Interim CEO Ben Kovler.

"We exited the year with fourth quarter licensing revenue of $7.0 million, which was a key contributor to the Company's total gross margins of approximately 75% for the quarter. The licensing revenue from our most recent brand acquisition began November 1, resulting in two months of contribution reflected in the fourth quarter.

"THC has faced persistent structural and regulatory headwinds, but consumer demand continues to rise. We believe consumers deserve access to safe, high-quality THC products where they already live, shop, and gather, and we have worked relentlessly to make that a reality. In a historic first, we launched a partnership with Chicago's United Center, making Señorita and RYTHM the first THC beverages to be offered at a major U.S. arena. Bringing THC to the nation's largest arena is a powerful example of real progress with a world-class partner who recognizes evolving consumer demand.

"Even as federal policy continues to lag consumer reality, we remain focused on providing consumers with iconic brands they trust. Our brands are performing extremely well across diverse U.S. markets at a time when THC consumption continues to grow and Americans just say no to alcohol. As the hemp and cannabis market continues to evolve globally, we believe owning leading U.S. brands provides long-term strategic value."
