**CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS AND INDUSTRY DATA**

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains certain forward-looking statements which are made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). Any statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q about our expectations, beliefs, plans, objectives, assumptions or future events or performance are not historical facts and are forward-looking statements. These statements are often, but not always, made through the use of words or phrases such as "may," "should," "believes," "will," "expects," "anticipates," "estimates," "predicts," "potential," "continues" "intends," "plans" and "would" or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology. For example, statements concerning financial condition, possible or assumed future results of operations, growth opportunities, and plans are all forward-looking statements. Our forward-looking statements are based on a series of expectations, assumptions, estimates and projections about our company, are not guarantees of future results or performance and involve substantial risks and uncertainty. They involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and assumptions that may cause actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to differ materially from any results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by any forward-looking statement. We may not actually achieve the plans, intentions or expectations disclosed in these forward-looking statements. Our business and our forward-looking statements involve substantial known and unknown risks and uncertainties, including the risks and uncertainties inherent in our statements regarding:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• current or future financial performance;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• management's plans and objectives for future operations;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• uncertainties associated with product research and development;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• uncertainties associated with dependence upon the actions of government regulatory agencies;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• product plans and performance;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• management's assessment of market factors; and statements regarding our strategy and plans.

All of our forward-looking statements are as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q only. In each case, actual results may differ materially from such forward-looking information. We can give no assurance that such expectations or forward-looking statements will prove to be correct. An occurrence of, or any material adverse change in, one or more of the risk factors or risks and uncertainties referred to in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or included in our other public disclosures or our other periodic reports or other documents or filings filed with or furnished to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") could materially and adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations. Except as required by law, we do not undertake or plan to update or revise any such forward-looking statements to reflect actual results, changes in plans, assumptions, estimates or projections or other circumstances affecting such forward-looking statements occurring after the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, even if such results, changes or circumstances make it clear that any forward-looking information will not be realized. Any public statements or disclosures by us following this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that modify or impact any of the forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q will be deemed to modify or supersede such statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q may include market data and certain industry data and forecasts, which we may obtain from internal company surveys, market research, consultant surveys, publicly available information, reports of governmental agencies and industry publications, articles and surveys. Industry surveys, publications, consultant surveys and forecasts generally state that the information contained therein has been obtained from sources believed to be reliable, but the accuracy and completeness of such information is not guaranteed. While we believe that such studies and publications are reliable, we have not independently verified market and industry data from third-party sources.

**Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements**

**NOTE 1. NATURE OF BUSINESS**

***Nature of Business***

Newsmax Inc. began as Newsmax Media, Inc., a Nevada corporation, which was incorporated on July 15, 1998, and registered on August 20, 1998, as a foreign corporation in the State of Florida. During 2014, Newsmax Media, Inc. changed its state of domicile from Nevada to Delaware. In connection with the change, the NMX Holdings, LLC entity was dissolved.

On April 14, 2024, Newsmax Media, Inc. consummated a corporate reorganization. Newsmax Inc. (the "Company") was formed as a new holding company that owns all of the outstanding shares of the operating company, Newsmax Media, Inc. The stockholders of Newsmax Media, Inc. exchanged their shares of capital stock in Newsmax Media, Inc. for the same class and number of shares in Newsmax Inc. Subsequently, Newsmax Media, Inc. changed its state of domicile from Delaware to Florida. As a result of this reorganization, Newsmax Inc. became the direct holding company and the sole shareholder of Newsmax Media, Inc. Newsmax Media, Inc.'s ownership of its subsidiaries was not affected or changed as a result of this reorganization.

The Company is a multi-platform media company that provides original news and lifestyle content using a mixed-revenue model that derives income from its linear cable television and over-the-top ("OTT") news channels, websites, proprietary database, publishing products and e-commerce products. The Company uses original news and editorial content to draw large numbers of readers to its media outlets in order to sell advertising, print and online information products. The Company's business operations are conducted through two operating segments, Broadcast and Digital.

***Private Placement***

In June 2024, the Company issued a Private Placement Memorandum ("PPM") to potential investors, aiming to raise capital through the sale of its Series B Preferred Stock in a Private Placement. The initial offering was for up to 30,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock at $5,000 per share for a base offering amount of $150,000,000, with the option to expand up to 45,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock for an offering amount of $225,000,000. The PPM was distributed to accredited investors as defined under Regulation D of the Securities Act of 1933. In connection with the PPM, the Company agreed to issue a three-year warrant to Digital Offering, LLC, as placement agent for the Private Placement, exercisable for 900 shares of Series B Preferred Stock with an exercise price per share of $5,000 upon the closing of the PPM. The offering was completed on February 27, 2025 and resulted in net proceeds of $206,660,285.

***Public Offering and Listing***

On February 27, 2025, the Company completed the sale of the remaining Series B Preferred Stock from the PPM raising approximately $87,000,000 during the period January 1, 2025 through February 27, 2025.

On March 24, 2025, a majority in interest of the shareholders of the Company approved by written consent (1) the amending and restating of the Company's articles of incorporation, the recapitalization of the Company's capital stock and the appointment of directors and (2) the Company's 2025 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan. See Note 16. Equity-Based Compensation.

On March 28, 2025, the Company completed its initial public offering (the "IPO"). Concurrently with the closing of the IPO and in accordance with the terms of the applicable Certificates of Designation, all shares of the Company's Series A-1 Preferred Stock, Series A-2 Preferred Stock, and Series A-3 Preferred Stock automatically converted into shares of the Company's then-existing Class A Common Stock. At the Company's election, all shares of the Company's Series A Preferred Stock also converted into shares of the Company's then-existing Class A Common Stock. All shares of Series B Preferred Stock automatically converted into shares of Class B Common Stock. On March 28, 2025 the Company also amended and restated its Articles of Incorporation (the "Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation") to reclassify its authorized share capital to implement a dual class of securities. As a result, each share of the Company's then-existing Class A Common Stock that was issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effectiveness of the Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, and not held by the Company's CEO, was recapitalized, reclassified, and reconstituted into one fully paid and non-assessable share of Class B Common Stock of Newsmax Inc. Each share of the Company's then-existing Class A Common Stock held by the Company's CEO immediately before the recapitalization, was recapitalized, reclassified, and reconstituted into one fully paid and non-assessable share of Class A Common Stock of Newsmax Inc. Following the recapitalization, Class A Common Stock has ten votes per share and Class B Common Stock

------

has one vote per share. Immediately following the recapitalization, the Company completed a 6,765.396:1 forward stock split of its Series A and Series B Common Stock. 27,061,584 shares (post-split) of treasury stock were effectively retired and the embedded derivative liability associated with the Series B Preferred Stock was settled and reclassified to equity. Pursuant to the Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, the Company is authorized to issue 50,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock; 940,000,000 shares of Class B Common Stock; and 10,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock. The par value of all shares is $0.001. The IPO resulted in total net proceeds of $66,083,411.

On March 31, 2025, the Company listed on The New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol "NMAX".

***Broadcast***

The broadcast segment of the Company's business produces and licenses news, business news and lifestyle content for distribution primarily through multichannel video programming distributors ("MVPDs") including cable television systems, direct broadcast satellite operators and telecommunication companies, primarily in the United States.

The Company creates and broadcasts content and distributes such content using a hybrid distribution strategy of linear cable, free OTT channels and free ad-supported streaming television services ("FAST") channels. The broadcast segment generates revenues from (1) linear TV channels, primarily through advertising sales, (2) OTT and FAST channels, primarily through revenue derived from third-party advertising in connection with services accessed through websites, apps and digital media players, (3) affiliate revenue earned through MVPDs broadcasting the Company's content to their paid subscribers, and (4) subscription revenue earned via the Company's new Newsmax+ subscription program which users can sign up to receive the Company's content directly.

***Digital***

The digital segment generates revenues through (1) online advertising, including online display, email advertising, other online placements and print advertisements, (2) subscriptions, including our collection of specialized health and financial newsletters, Newsmax Magazine and four online membership programs, and (3) e-commerce, primarily through our subsidiaries that sell nutraceuticals and nonfiction books on political, financial and health-related topics.

The Company also distributes content through its websites and social media accounts, apps, email and newsletters. The Company's websites and apps provide live and/or on-demand streaming of network-related programming to allow video subscribers of the Company's participating distribution partners to view Company content via the Internet.

**NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES**

***Basis of Accounting***

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States ("U.S.") generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of the Company's management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been reflected in these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Operating results for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025. The balance sheet at December 31, 2024 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date, but does not include all the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read together with the annual audited consolidated financial statements and related notes for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024.

***Principles of Consolidation***

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Newsmax Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries Newsmax Media Inc, Medix Health, LLC ("Medix"), Crown Atlantic Insurance, LLC ("Crown"), Newsmax Broadcasting, LLC ("Broadcasting"), Humanix Publishing, LLC ("Humanix"), ROI Media Strategies ("ROI") and Newsmax Radio LLC ("Radio"). All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

***Use of Estimates***

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP") requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported

------

amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates and assumptions made by management are used for, but not limited to, the allowance for credit losses, carrying value of other assets, and realizability of deferred income taxes.

***Marketable Securities***

The Company accounts for its marketable securities in accordance with ASC Topic 321, Investments - Equity Securities. ASC Topic 321 requires companies to measure equity investments at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized in net income (loss). The Company's investments in marketable securities consist of equity securities with readily determinable fair values. The cost of securities sold is based on the specific identification method, and interest and dividends on securities are included in non-operating income (expense).

The fair market value of marketable equity securities is determined based on quoted market prices in active markets. See Note 3. Fair Value Measurements, for additional information regarding the valuation of marketable equity securities.

***Available-for-Sale Debt Instruments***

The Company classifies investments in fixed income securities as available-for-sale debt investments. The Company's available-for-sale debt investments primarily consist of certificates of deposits and treasury securities. These available-for-sale debt investments are held in the custody of a major financial institution. A specific identification method is used to determine the cost basis of available-for-sale debt investments sold. These investments are recorded in the condensed consolidated balance sheets at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses on these investments are included within other comprehensive income (loss), net of tax. The Company classifies investments as current based on the nature of the investments and their availability for use in current operations.

The Company regularly reviews investment securities for impairment. For debt securities, any impairment relating to credit losses is recorded through an allowance for credit losses. A change in the allowance for credit losses is recorded into earnings in the period of the change.

***Revenue Recognition***

In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 606, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers," the Company recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods are services. The Company records taxes collected from customers and remitted to governmental authorities on a net basis.

*Service Revenue*

Service revenue is primarily derived from the Company's original news and lifestyle content, using a mixed-revenue multi-platform model that derives income from digital, linear and OTT news channels, websites, proprietary database, publishing and video subscription services. The Company uses original news, syndicated services and editorial content to draw consumers to its media outlets in order to sell advertising, license fees and video, print and online information services.

The Company's service revenue is comprised of the following:

*Advertising Revenue*

Advertising revenue is derived from the sale of advertising on the Company's cable television, email database, in the Company's magazine and related publications, or on the Company's website. Revenue related to the sale of advertising in

------

the broadcast segment is recognized at the time of broadcast. Revenue related to the Company's digital segment is recognized when display or other digital advertisements record impressions on the various digital media. Revenue related to the Company's magazine and related publications is recognized when the ad is displayed in the printed document. Each advertisement insertion order is determined to be a distinct performance obligation that is satisfied at the point in time when such advertisements are published/aired. The Company records revenue from contracts that are entered into between the Company and its customers, primarily advertising agencies and direct advertisers, at the amount charged for the services. Advertising contracts, which are generally short-term, are billed monthly for the services provided during the month, with payments due shortly thereafter. Cash payments received prior to services rendered result in deferred revenue, which is then recognized as revenue when the advertising time or space is actually provided.

The Company enters into agreements with over-the-top distribution platforms to distribute the Company's news channel. Pursuant to the Company's distribution agreements, advertising revenues are earned based on an allocation of the fee determined by the number of impressions received. These contracts represent a single performance obligation recognized over time under the series guidance. Revenue is recognized upon delivery of the content over the course of an over-the-top distribution agreement term based on time elapsed, as this best depicts the simultaneous consumption and delivery of the services. The Company bills OTT customers monthly over the life of the contract. The Company has an unconditional right to receive payment of the amount billed generally within 30 to 90 days from the invoice date. The invoiced amount to be received is recorded in accounts receivable on the balance sheets.

*Subscription Revenue*

The Company sells magazines to consumers through subscriptions. Each subscription is determined to be a distinct performance obligation that is satisfied over the term of the subscription, normally one (1) to five (5) years. Subscriptions received in advance of the publication are recorded as deferred revenue and recognized as income on a straight line basis over the term, as this best represents the transfer of control of the services to the consumer.

The Company also has Newsmax+ which is a subscription service that provides the Company's content directly to consumers either on a monthly or annual basis. Monthly subscriptions are recognized as income in the month it was earned. Annual subscriptions are recorded as deferred revenue and recognized as income over the term of the contract each month.

The Company's deferred subscription revenue balances are shown below along with the corresponding revenue recognized from the prior period:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| | **September 30, 2025** | **December 31, 2024** |
| Deferred subscription revenue, current portion | $10582247 | $13356032 |
| Deferred subscription revenue, net of current portion | 3031812 | 2835218 |
| Total deferred subscription revenue | $13614059 | $16191250 |

---

Deferred subscription revenue recognized in revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 was $3.1 million and $10.8 million, respectively, and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 was $3.4 million and $12.5 million, respectively.

*Affiliate Fee Revenue*

The Company generates affiliate fee revenue from agreements with MVPDs for cable networks. Affiliate fee revenue is recognized over time as the Company continuously makes the programming available to the customer over the term of the agreement using the output method. For contracts with affiliate fees based on the number of the affiliate's subscribers, revenues are recognized based on the contractual rate multiplied by the estimated number of subscribers each period. Consideration payable to a customer is treated as a cost of sale when distinct. If a distinct service is not received, such costs are recorded as a reduction to revenues. Affiliate contracts are generally multi-year contracts billed monthly with payments due shortly thereafter.

*Other* 

Other primarily includes revenue generated from the Company's content licensing agreements. Revenue from content licensing agreements is recognized when the content is made available under the content licensing agreements.

------

Deferred revenue related to licensing agreements amounts to $0.1 million and $0.3 million as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.

*Product Revenue*

Product sales are derived from the sales of books, audio and video, dietary supplements, and other items advertised on the Company's website. Supplement, books, media and other product sales are recognized at the point in time control transfers to the customer, which is when the product is shipped. Allowances are considered for estimated returns and refunds at the point in time when revenue is recognized. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the refund liability was $0.5 million and $0.4 million, respectively and is classified as a reduction in accounts receivable. The Company records taxes collected from customers and remitted to governmental authorities on a net basis. Product revenue is comprised of the following:

---

| | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| | **Three Months Ended<br>September 30,** | **Three Months Ended<br>September 30,** | **Nine Months Ended<br>September 30,** | **Nine Months Ended<br>September 30,** |

*Incremental Costs to Obtain a Contract*

The revenue standard requires capitalization of the incremental costs to obtain a contract, which the Company has identified as certain sales commissions. These costs are deferred and then amortized over the expected customer life. Amortization expense is included within sales and marketing on the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations. As of September 30, 2025, the Company had $1.3 million of unamortized capitalized costs to obtain a contract, of which $0.3 million is recorded within prepaid expenses and other current assets and $1.0 million is recorded within other assets on our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company recorded approximately $0.2 million of amortization of capitalized costs, which is recorded within professional fees on our unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company had no unamortized capitalized costs to obtain a contract and the Company recorded no amortization of capitalized costs.

*Practical Expedients*

As a practical expedient, the Company recognizes any incremental costs of obtaining contracts as expense when the amortization period is considered to be a year or less.

As a practical expedient, the Company accounts for shipping and handling activities related to contracts with customers as costs to fulfill the promise to transfer the associated products.

***Shipping and Handling Costs***

Amounts billed to third-party customers for shipping and handling are included as a component of revenue. Shipping and handling costs incurred are included as a component of cost of products sold. Shipping and handling charges recorded as revenue amounted to $0.1 million and $0.2 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, and $0.1 million and $0.2 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively.

***Stock-Based Compensation***

Stock options granted to employees under the Company's 2025 Omnibus Incentive Plan vest over 18 months based on continued service and are subject to forfeiture, repurchase, or clawback during this period. Although the awards allow for early exercise in 30-day increments starting after grant, the shares remain subject to repurchase and do not substantively vest until the end of the service period. Compensation expense is recognized using the straight-line method over the 18-month service period.

The fair value of stock options is determined on the grant date using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The model incorporates assumptions including the $10 grant-date fair value of the underlying stock, the risk-free interest rate, and

------

expected volatility based on a peer group. The Company applied the simplified method to estimate the expected term. Based on its review of contemporaneous public filings, the Company concluded that the awards were not "spring-loaded" under SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 120.

Stock-based compensation expense is included in cost of sales and selling, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. The Company accounts for forfeitures as they occur.

***Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Credit Losses***

Accounts receivable is presented net of an allowance for credit losses of $1.9 million and $2.3 million at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and maintains allowances for potential credit losses and doubtful accounts. The Company's allowance for credit losses is estimated based on historical loss rates, current conditions, reasonable economic forecasts that affect collectability, and known credit issues with specific customers. Provisions (recoveries) for credit losses totaled approximately $0.2 million and $(0.1) million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, and $0.1 million and $(0.4) million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively .

***Impairment of Long-Lived Assets***

The Company continually evaluates factors, events and circumstances that include, but are not limited to, historical and projected operating performance of the Company, specific industry trends and general economic conditions to assess whether the remaining estimated useful lives of long-lived assets may warrant revision or that the remaining balance of long-lived assets may not be recoverable. When such factors, events or circumstances indicate that long-lived assets should be evaluated for possible impairment, the Company uses an estimate of undiscounted cash flows over the remaining lives of the long-lived assets in measuring their recoverability. The Company measures asset impairment loss as the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair market value of the asset.

***Other Assets***

During 2023, the Company capitalized a separate payment obligation of $41.3 million associated with a commercial counterparty to resolve various claims. The Company accounted for the payment as a reduction to the transaction price in accordance with the guidance in ASC 606-10-32-25 and 32-26 and is amortizing the asset as a contra-revenue item. In connection with the signing of this agreement, the Company identified indicators that the carrying value of these upfront costs were not fully recoverable based on estimated cash flows related to the customer relationship. As a result, the Company's broadcast segment recognized a partial impairment of the upfront cost during 2023 with no additional impairment recognized for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024.

Amortization of the capitalized costs of the asset is recorded on a straight-line basis over the life of the agreement which ends June 30, 2029 as contra revenue in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive (loss) income. Amortization expense amounted to $0.8 million and $2.3 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, and $0.8 million and $2.3 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively.

Other assets also include $1.3 million for costs to obtain a contract, which the Company has identified as certain sales commissions.

The Company evaluates these other assets for impairment each reporting period based upon its estimate of recoverability of the assets. Recoverability of the assets is based upon estimated cash flows including reductions for direct and allocable costs attributable to the underlying business arrangement.

***Funds Held in Escrow***

In connection with the settlement agreement reached with Dominion (as defined below in Note 12), the Company established an escrow account to secure the settlement obligations. As of September 30, 2025, the balance of the escrow account totaled $40.0 million. Pursuant to the terms of the settlement, which is further described herein and in our publicly available filings with the SEC, the escrowed funds will be released in two equal installments of $20.0 million each, payable on or before January 15, 2026 and January 15, 2027.

The escrow account earns interest at an annual rate of 4.02%. As of September 30, 2025, cumulative interest income of $0.2 million has been earned on the escrow balance. The interest income is recorded as a component of other income in the

------

accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). The related interest receivable is included in Prepaid expenses and other current assets on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.

The escrow funds are restricted in use and are classified as Funds held in escrow on the Company's consolidated balance sheets. The current portion of the escrow balance represents the amount scheduled for release within twelve months of the reporting date.

***Fair Value Measurements***

The Company carries certain assets and/or liabilities at fair value in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company applies accounting guidance that defines fair value as an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. Fair value measurements under the accounting guidance are classified based on the following fair value hierarchy:

Level 1: Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2: Observable market based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data. We use inputs such as actual trade data, benchmark yields, and other similar data, which are obtained from quoted market prices, independent pricing vendors, or other sources, to determine the ultimate fair value of assets or liabilities.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data.

The fair value of a financial instrument is the amount for which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties. The level in the fair value hierarchy within which a fair value measurement in its entirety falls is based on the lowest-level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses, accrued payroll and accrued distribution approximate fair value due to their short-term nature and observable inputs.

***Net Loss Per Share***

Basic and diluted loss per share is computed as net loss available to common stockholders divided by the weighted average number of shares outstanding for the period. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, all dilutive securities have been excluded as their inclusion would have had an antidilutive effect on loss per share. Potentially dilutive common shares include warrants, convertible preferred stock, and stock options.

***Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements***

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. The amendments in this ASU require public entities to disclose significant segment expenses and other segment items and to provide in interim periods all disclosures about a reportable segment's profit or loss and assets that are currently required annually. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and for interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The amendments in this ASU should be applied retrospectively to all periods presented. The adoption of this standard for interim periods beginning with the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 did not have a material impact on the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial results, but resulted in enhanced disclosures as included in Note 9. Segment Information.

***Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted***

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): *Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures* ("ASU 2023-09") to enhance transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures. ASU 2023-09 requires greater standardization and disaggregation of categories within an entity's tax rate reconciliation disclosure, as well as disclosure of income taxes paid by jurisdiction, among other requirements. ASU 2023-09 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. ASU 2023-09 is effective on a prospective basis, with retrospective application permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effects of this ASU on its income tax disclosures.

------

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, *Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income-Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses* ("ASU 2024-03"), which requires additional disclosures of the nature of expenses included in the income statement. The new standard requires disclosures about specific types of expenses included in the expense captions presented on the face of the income statement as well as disclosures about selling expenses. The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027 on a prospective basis, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the provisions of the amendments and the impact on its disclosures.

In March 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-02, *Liabilities (Topic 405): Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 122*, which removes certain SEC guidance related to obligations to safeguard crypto-assets. This amendment eliminates outdated SEC guidance previously codified under SAB No. 122 and may impact disclosures or recognition related to obligations and liabilities. The amendments in this update are effective immediately and on a fully retrospective basis for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company is currently evaluating the provisions of the amendments and the impact on its disclosures.

In July 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-05, Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets, which provides a practical expedient to measure credit losses on accounts receivable and contract assets. The ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2025, and interim periods with those annual reporting periods. The Company is currently evaluating the effects of this ASU on its calculation for credit losses.

The Company's Level 2 investments are valued using third-party pricing sources. The pricing services utilize industry standard valuation models, including both income and market-based approaches, for which all significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly, to estimate fair value. For the year ended December 31, 2024, the transfers of assets between levels was a total of $9.9 million from Level 1 to Level 2 for U.S. treasury notes and bills that are considered Level 2 investments when they were issued before the most recent issue and were still outstanding at measurement day (off-the-run). There were no transfers in or out of Level 3 investments for the nine months ended September 30, 2025.

**NOTE 7. LINE OF CREDIT**

In 2024 the Company had a $9.0 million available line of credit which expired in October 2024. In May 2025 the Company renewed the existing line of credit with an available balance of $1.0 million and a maturity date of January 04, 2026. The Company also established a new line of credit in May 2025 with an available balance of $8.0 million maturing April 26, 2026. Both lines of credit bear interest at the greater of (i) one percent (1.000%) or (ii) the Prime Rate minus seventy five hundredths percent (-0.750%). There were no borrowings outstanding as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

**NOTE 8. INCOME TAXES**

Effective income tax rates for interim periods are based on the Company's estimate of the applicable annual income tax rate. The Company's effective income tax rate varies based upon the estimate of the Company's annual taxable earnings and the allocation of those taxable earnings across the various states in which the Company operates. Changes in the annual

------

allocation of the Company's activity among these jurisdictions results in changes to the effective tax rate utilized to measure the Company's income tax provision and deferred tax assets and liabilities.

The Company's effective income tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 was 0% for both periods. This was different than the expected federal income tax rate of 21% primarily due to the Company operating at a loss with a full valuation allowance. The Company had insignificant state income taxes for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024.

On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act ("OBBBA") was enacted in the U.S. The OBBBA includes significant provisions, such as the permanent extension of certain expiring provisions of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, modifications to the international tax framework and the restoration of favorable tax treatment for certain business provisions. The legislation has multiple effective dates, with certain provisions effective in 2025 and others implemented through 2027. The effective tax rates for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 consider the enactment of OBBBA, which did not have a material impact to income tax expense. OBBBA is not expected to materially impact our 2025 annual effective tax rate.

.

**NOTE 9. SEGMENT INFORMATION**

The Company has two operating segments: (1) Broadcasting and (2) Digital, which also qualify as reportable segments. In accordance with ASC 280, "Segment Reporting," the operating segments reflect how the chief operating decision maker, which the Company defines as the chief executive officer, assesses the performance of each operating segment and determines the appropriate allocations of resources to each segment. The Company continually reviews the operating segment classifications to align with operational changes in our business and may make changes as necessary. The Company evaluates performance based upon several factors, of which the primary financial measure is Segment Adjusted EBITDA.

Due to the integrated nature of these operating segments, estimates and judgments are made in allocating certain revenues and expenses.

Segment Adjusted EBITDA is defined as revenues less cost of revenues and general and administrative expenses and does not include depreciation, interest, net, asset impairment, unrealized gain (loss) on marketable securities, stock-based compensation, other corporate matters, other, net and income tax expense. Other corporate matters represent certain litigation expenses, and related fees, for specific proceedings that the Company has determined are infrequent and unusual in terms of their magnitude. Management believes that Segment Adjusted EBITDA is an appropriate measure for evaluating the operating performance of the Company's business segments because it is the primary measure used by the Company's chief operating decision maker to evaluate the performance of and allocate resources to the Company's business. The Company does not present asset information for our segments as this information is not used to allocate resources.

**NOTE 10. CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISKS**

Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash, short-term investments available-for-sale and accounts receivable. Management believes the financial risks associated with these financial instruments are minimal.

The Company places its cash, and its short-term investments with high credit quality financial institutions. The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts that, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses due to this policy. The Company's short-term investments are generally deemed to be low risk; however, the longer the duration of a security, the more susceptible it is to changes in market interest rates and bond yields. As the balance of the Company's short-term investments has grown, the market risk related to those investments has grown as well.

Concentrations of credit risk with respect to accounts receivable are limited because a large number of geographically diverse customers make up the Company's customer base, thus spreading the trade credit risk. The Company controls credit risk through credit approvals, credit limits and monitoring procedures. The Company performs credit evaluations of its commercial customers but generally does not require collateral to support accounts receivable.

No single customer accounted for over 10% of the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated net revenues during either of the nine months ended September 30, 2025 or 2024. No single customer accounted for over 10% of the Company's condensed consolidated accounts receivable as of September 30, 2025 or December 31, 2024.

**NOTE 11. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES**

The Company has commitments under certain firm contractual arrangements ("firm commitments") to make future payments. These firm commitments secure the future rights to various assets and services to be used in the normal course of operations. The following table summarizes the Company's material firm commitments for contracts that run through 2027 as of September 30, 2025:

---

***Talent Agreements***

The Company has entered into various commitments over the next three years ending in December 2027 primarily related to talent costs and other service agreements.

**NOTE 12. LEGAL**

***Legal Matters***

From time to time, the Company may be involved in various claims, lawsuits, and disputes with third parties, actions involving allegations of discrimination or breach of contract incidental to the ordinary operations of the business. In the opinion of management, the amount of ultimate liability with respect to these actions will not have a material adverse impact on the Company's condensed consolidated financial position or results of condensed consolidated operations or condensed consolidated cash flows. The Company accrues for loss contingencies that are probable and reasonably estimable. The Company generally does not accrue for legal costs expected to be incurred with a loss contingency until those services are provided.

***Defamation and Disparagement Claims***

From time to time, the Company is subject to lawsuits alleging defamation or disparagement. These include lawsuits filed by Smartmatic USA Corp. and certain of its affiliates (collectively, "Smartmatic") and Dominion Voting Systems, Inc. and certain of its affiliates (collectively, "Dominion") filed during 2023. The Smartmatic complaint sought an unspecified amount of damages while the Dominion complaint is seeking $1.6 billion in damages.

On September 26, 2024, the Company entered into a settlement agreement with Smartmatic pursuant to which the parties agreed to resolve the lawsuits among them. The Company agreed to pay a settlement of approximately $40.0 million payable over time and granted a five year warrant to purchase 2,000 shares of Series B preferred stock at an exercise price of $5,000 per share. Refer to Note 15. Equity for details of the warrant. The settlement expense, inclusive of the warrant, is included in other corporate matters in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive (Loss) Income for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The $40.0 million payable over time is recorded within settlement liability on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. As of September 30, 2025 the outstanding balance was fully satisfied.

On August 15, 2025, Newsmax Media, Inc. and Newsmax Broadcasting, LLC entered into a settlement agreement with Dominion Voting Systems, Inc. and certain of its affiliates ("Dominion"), pursuant to which such parties agreed to resolve the lawsuit among them for a total amount of $67.0 million to be paid in the current and next two fiscal years. The payments will be made in three installments: (1) $27.0 million paid on August 15, 2025; (2) $20.0 million on or before January 15, 2026; and (3) $20.0 million on or before January 15, 2027. The settlement expense is included in other corporate matters in the Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive (Loss) Income for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. The $40.0 million payable over time is recorded within settlement liability on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. As of November 10, 2025 the outstanding balance of the settlement is $40 million.

In 2023, the Company entered into a settlement agreement with a commercial counterparty for $41.3 million. As of September 30, 2025, and pursuant to the payment schedule associated with this settlement agreement, the Company has a total of approximately $31.1 million remaining to be paid over time. The fair value of the settlement agreement as of September 30, 2025 and 2024 was $25.8 million and $28.9 million, respectively, which assumes a discount rate of 9.75%

**NOTE 13. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS**

The Company maintains a 401(k) Salary Savings Plan (the "Plan") covering those employees who meet eligibility requirements set forth in the Plan. The matching contribution is at the discretion of the Company's Board of Directors. The Company's policy is to match 100% of the first 1% of employee contributions and 50% on the next 2 to 6% of employee contributions. Total expense for the Plan amounted to $0.4 million and $1.2 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, and $0.4 million and $0.9 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively.

**NOTE 14. CONVERTIBLE AND REDEEMABLE PREFERRED STOCK**

***Convertible and Redeemable Preferred Stock***

Prior to the March 28, 2025 initial public offering, the Company had outstanding Convertible and Redeemable Preferred Stock, which converted in connection with the initial public offering. The conversion included accumulated dividends on the Redeemable Preferred Stock except for those shares held by two preferred stockholders who elected to receive their accumulated dividends in cash on the initial public offering date. As of September 30, 2025, the Company does not have Convertible and Redeemable Preferred Stock outstanding.

Convertible and Redeemable Preferred Stock as of December 31, 2024 (71,034 total shares authorized and all classes are $0.001 par value per share) was as follows. The conversion prices and conversion ratios presented in this footnote have not been adjusted for the stock split disclosed in Note 1. Nature of Business:

---

Prior to the March 28, 2025 initial public offering, the Company's Series A convertible preferred stock was classified as mezzanine equity and Series B convertible preferred stock was classified as permanent equity in the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements.

The Company measured the preferred stock where redemption was probable at its maximum redemption value plus dividends not declared or paid but which would be payable upon redemption. On December 31, 2024, the preferred stock was remeasured, resulting in a maximum redemption value of $128.6 million and accretion of $12.8 million, included in Accumulated Deficit on the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2024.

The Series B preferred stock included certain redemption rights that were solely in the control of the Company, including redemption upon sale or liquidation of the Company, and an in-substance redemption feature associated with the conversion terms of the Series B preferred stock upon IPO. The stock was recorded in permanent equity on the condensed

------

consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2024. The redemption features were bifurcated as an embedded derivative and were accounted for as a derivative liability on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. The fair value of the embedded derivative was estimated using a scenario-based discounted cash flow method. The valuation methodology included assumptions and judgments regarding discount rates and timing of conversion, which were primarily level 3 assumptions. The embedded derivative was measured at fair value on a recurring basis and any changes in fair value in a subsequent period were be recorded to other income (expense). For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company recognized a loss of $6.1 million in fair value adjustments in other, net on the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive (loss) income related to the change in net fair value between the beginning of the year and the conversion of the Series B preferred stock upon IPO. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company recognized a loss of $0.9 million in fair value adjustments in other, net on the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive (loss) income.

**NOTE 15. EQUITY**

**Common Stock A –** As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company was authorized to issue 50,000,000 shares of common stock, with a par value of $0.001 per share and 20,000 shares of common stock (pre-stock split), with a par value of 0.001 per share, respectively.

**Common Stock B -** As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company was authorized to issue 940,000,000 shares of common stock, with a par value of $0.001 per share and 60,000 shares of common stock (pre-stock split), with a par value of 0.001 per share, respectively.

**Settlement Warrant** - On September 26, 2024, the Company granted a five year warrant to purchase 2,000 shares of Series B preferred stock at an exercise price of $5,000 per share in connection with a settlement agreement with Smartmatic. Following the conversion of the underlying Series B preferred stock into Class B common stock in connection with the Company's March 28, 2025 initial public offering, Smartmatic has a five year warrant to purchase 1,333,333 shares of Class B common stock at an exercise price of $7.50 per share. Refer to Note 12. Legal for details of the settlement. The exercise price and the number of shares of the warrants are subject to adjustment for standard anti-dilution provisions. Exercise of the warrant would result in the Company recognizing a $10.0 million increase in gross proceeds. Prior to conversion of the underlying Series B preferred stock into Class B common stock, the settlement warrant did not meet the conditions to be classified in equity, and therefore the Company assessed and confirmed it met the definition of a liability under ASC 815 and ASC 480 and it was recognized on the balance sheet at fair value. Following the conversion of the underlying Series B preferred shares to Class B common shares as a result of the Company's March 28, 2025 offering, the warrant meets the conditions for equity classification. As a result, the warrant has been recorded in equity at its March 28, 2025 fair value of $8.3 million with a final fair value adjustment loss of $1.8 million recorded in other, net on the September 30, 2025 unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive (loss) income.

**Agent Warrants** - The Company agreed to issue a three-year warrant to the placement agent associated with the Private Placement of shares of the Company's Series B convertible preferred Stock. The number of shares under the warrant is equal to 2% of the total shares raised under the private placement with an exercise price of $5,000 per share. Following the conversion of the underlying Series B preferred stock into Class B common stock in connection with the Company's March 28, 2025 initial public offering, the exercise price is $7.50 per share. The warrant holder has the option to elect net share settlement. The effective date of the warrant is the date of the final close of the private placement offering. The Company evaluated the warrant under ASC 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation and determined that the award was non-employee share-based compensation that does not meet the criteria for liability classification. As a result, the warrant was classified in equity in the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2025.

**Standby Equity Purchase Agreement** - On April 4, 2025, the Company entered into a $1.2 billion Standby Equity Purchase Agreement ("SEPA") with Yorkville pursuant to which the Company has the right to direct Yorkville during the 24 month term of the agreement to purchase common stock subject to certain limitations and conditions set forth in the SEPA. There were no purchases of common stock during the nine months ended September 30, 2025.

As consideration under the SEPA, the Company paid to Yorkville (i) a structuring fee in the amount of $25,000 and (ii) a commitment fee of $500,000 of shares of common stock equal to the commitment fee divided by the daily VWAP of the common shares during the trading day immediately prior to the effective date of the SEPA. The structuring fee and commitment fee were expensed in full immediately following the consummation of the SEPA, according to ASC 815, and recorded within the professional fees line item in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss for the period ended September 30, 2025.

**NOTE 16. EQUITY-BASED COMPENSATION**

On March 28, 2025, the Board adopted the Company's 2025 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan (the "2025 Plan") and it was approved by the Company's shareholders on March 24, 2025 (the "Effective Date"). Under the 2025 Plan, 6,500,000 shares of Class B Common Stock are initially available for grant. The Company's administrator may grant incentive stock options ("ISOs"), non-statutory stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units and other stock-based awards to participants to acquire shares of common stock under the 2025 Plan. The Plan was administered by the Board. On March 28, 2025, the Company granted stock options to employees and certain service providers to purchase an aggregate of 3,382,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $10.00 per share, which was the fair market value on the grant date.

**NOTE 17. LOSS PER SHARE**

The holders of the Company's Class A and Class B common stock have identical liquidation and dividend rights but different voting rights. Accordingly, the Company presents the loss per share for Class A and Class B common stock together. Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of shares of the Company's Class A and Class B common stock outstanding. Loss per share for Class B common stock is not presented separately as under the two-class method Class A and Class B loss per share is not meaningfully different. The following table illustrates the reconciliation of the basic and diluted loss per share computations.

*The following "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" should be read in conjunction with the unaudited consolidated financial statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024, and other information included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report. This discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results may differ materially from such forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to those differences include, but are not limited to, those identified below and those discussed in the sections entitled "Risk Factors" and "Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements" included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 as may be amended, supplemented or superseded from time to time by other reports we file with the SEC. Additionally, our historical results are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected in any future period.*

**Overview of the Company's Business**

Founded in 1998 as a digital media brand, Newsmax Inc. entered the cable news market in 2014. Since then, the network has had an astonishing rise, climbing into the top tier of cable channels, and has remained the fourth highest-rated cable news channel in the United States, just behind CNN. According to Nielsen, Newsmax Inc. was the only cable news channel to see ratings growth across all day parts in 2025, with prime-time up 42% in total viewers. Q1 2024 also saw an impressive 137% rise in prime-time ratings, compared to the same period last year.

We have developed a significant audience, reaching over 40 million Americans each month through our television broadcasts and multi-platform content, and we have demonstrated remarkable growth with revenues up 309% since 2019.

In June 2024, a Reuters global survey of media found Newsmax Inc. was one of the nation's "top news brands," identifying the network as one of only 12 major media outlets Americans are turning to regularly.

Newsmax Inc. is a holding company that owns 100% of the equity interests of its operating company Newsmax Media and the other Subsidiaries operate the businesses described in this Quarterly Report, and none of those businesses are operated by Newsmax Inc.

Newsmax Inc. is a television broadcaster and multi-platform content publisher that produces original news and editorial content for consumers through various media outlets, including through its TV news channels, digital and print publications, its popular website Newsmax.com and affiliated sites, its syndicated radio show and podcasts and other platforms in order to sell advertising to third-party marketers as well as offering paid subscriptions to more than a dozen digital and print products sold by Newsmax Media. Newsmax Media content is carried by all major linear cable and satellite pay TV platforms, or multichannel video programming distributors ("MVPDs") for the Newsmax channel, and most over the top ("OTT") streaming platforms for its free ad-supported streaming television service ("FAST") channel Newsmax2, making Newsmax Media content available to over 100 million homes in the U.S. In addition, international companies have licensed Newsmax Media's channels and brand for regional, national and local television and digital media purposes. Certain licensing agreements currently in place have allowed Newsmax Media's partners to provide cable television and digital news under the Newsmax Media brand to viewers in eastern Europe.

Newsmax Inc. operates several business lines through its subsidiaries and divisions, creating a synergistic effect on audience growth, revenues and customer acquisition. These business lines are grouped into 2 separate reportable segments which consist of Broadcasting and Digital:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **<u>Broadcasting</u>** - The broadcast segment of our business produces and licenses news, business news and lifestyle content for distribution primarily through MVPDs including cable television systems, direct broadcast satellite operators and telecommunication companies, primarily in the United States, generating revenue through (1) placement of advertisements on our broadcast content, (2) subscriptions to our broadcast content, and (3) affiliate fees from the MVPDs. The components of Broadcasting are as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Newsmax Broadcasting LLC provides programming through three channels, Newsmax, Newsmax2, and World at War.

**Growth Strategies and Outlook**

*Maintain and enhance leading position in news and other content production.*

Newsmax Media has been a leader in digital news and with the continued growth of its television service, plans to continue to invest in talent acquisition and programming that we expect to raise the profile and visibility of Newsmax Media to a broader audience. With expanded content offerings, Newsmax Media plans to expand its reach and value to audiences through traditional platform and direct-to-consumer services.

------

*Increase revenue growth through the continued delivery of premium content.*

Newsmax Media will continue to focus on creating high-quality content delivered through diversified publishing platforms that offers value to its audience, advertisers and distribution partners. As a live linear content service, Newsmax Media seeks to offer a unique perspective and voice that resonates with audiences across those platforms and further develop a dedicated and loyal audience.

*Expand television and digital distribution offerings, increasing complementary sources of revenues.*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Newsmax Media's key goals are to maximize its subscriber penetration on traditional cable platforms, growing its subscription base for Newsmax+, increasing audiences for its news channels, develop its footprint in international markets - all while creating additional revenue opportunities through advertising sales. Newsmax Media will also further develop its delivery strategies on emerging content and social platforms to increase interaction with its audience.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Newsmax, as a relatively new network, has potential for additional distribution growth, and growth of its advertising revenue as well as affiliate fees, which is a revenue stream that started in 2023, where previously we paid for distribution. Linear TV is primarily driven by live sports, news and events, and as media companies continue to focus on expanding their streaming service offerings, news consumption has risen in importance.

**Trends and Other Factors Impacting Our Performance**

Our broadcast segment derives the majority of its revenues from advertising. For the three months ended September 30, 2025, the Company generated revenues of approximately $45.3 million, of which 60.9% was generated from advertising in the broadcast and digital segments, 17.8% was generated from affiliate fee revenue, 15.2% was generated from subscriptions for publications including Newsmax+ and 6.1% was generated from other lines of business which are primarily e-commerce sales of nutraceuticals, books and licensing fees.

For the three months ended September 30, 2024, we generated revenues of $43.5 million, of which approximately 64.4% was generated from advertising in the broadcast and digital segments, approximately 15.1% was generated from affiliate fees, approximately 15.8% was generated from subscriptions for publications including Newsmax+, approximately 4.6% was generated from other lines of business which are primarily e-commerce sales of nutraceuticals, books and licensing fee.

Affiliate fees are a revenue stream that started in November 2023 that primarily include (i) monthly subscriber-based license and retransmission consent fees paid by programming distributors that carry the Newsmax channel. Our revenues are impacted by rate changes, changes in the number of subscribers to MVPD's and changes in the expenditures by advertisers.

The cable network programming and television industries continue to evolve rapidly, with changes in technology leading to alternative methods for the delivery and storage of digital content. These technological advancements have driven changes in consumer behavior as consumers now have more control over when, where and how they consume content. Consumer preferences have evolved toward lower cost alternatives, including direct-to-consumer offerings. These changes in technologies and consumer behavior have contributed to declines in the number of subscribers to MVPD services, and these declines are expected to continue and possibly accelerate in the future.

At the same time, technological changes have increased advertisers' options for reaching their target audiences. There has been a substantial increase in the availability of content with reduced advertising or without advertising at all. As consumers switch to digital consumption of video content, there is still to be developed a consistent, broadly accepted measure of multiplatform audiences across the industry. Furthermore, the pricing and volume of advertising may be affected by shifts in spending from more traditional media and toward digital and mobile offerings, which can deliver targeted advertising more promptly, or toward newer ways of purchasing advertising.

We operate in a highly competitive industry and its performance is dependent, to a large extent, on the impact of changes in consumer behavior as a result of new technologies, the sale of advertising, the maintenance, renewal and terms of its carriage, affiliation and content agreements and programming rights, the popularity of its content, general economic conditions (including financial market conditions), our ability to manage the businesses effectively, and its relative strength and leverage in the industry.

**Components of our Results of Operations**

***Revenue Recognition***

In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 606, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers," we recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those goods and services.

***Advertising Revenue***

Advertising revenue is derived from the sale of advertising on our cable television, email database, in our magazine and related publications, or on our website. Revenue related to the sale of advertising in the broadcast segment is recognized at the time of broadcast. Revenue related to our digital segment is recognized when display or other digital advertisements record impressions on the various digital media. Revenue related to our magazine and related publications is recognized when the ad is displayed in the printed document. Each advertisement insertion order is determined to be a distinct performance obligation that is satisfied at the point in time when such advertisements are published/aired. We record revenue from contracts that are entered into between us and our customers, primarily advertising agencies and direct advertisers, at the amount charged for the services. Advertising contracts, which are generally short-term, are billed monthly for the services provided during the month, with payments due shortly thereafter. Cash payments received prior to services rendered result in deferred revenue, which is then recognized as revenue when the advertising time or space is actually provided.

We enter into agreements with over-the-top distribution platforms to distribute our news channel. Pursuant to our distribution agreements, advertising revenues are earned based on an allocation of the fee determined by the number of impressions received. These contracts represent a single performance obligation recognized over time under the series guidance. Revenue is recognized upon delivery of the content over the course of an over-the-top distribution agreement term based on time elapsed, as this best depicts the simultaneous consumption and delivery of the services. We bill OTT customers monthly over the life of the contract. We have an unconditional right to receive payment of the amount billed generally within 30 to 90 days from the invoice date. The invoiced amount to be received is recorded in accounts receivable on our condensed consolidated balance sheets.

***Affiliate Fee Revenue***

We generate affiliate fee revenue from agreements with MVPDs for cable network. Affiliate fee revenue is recognized as we continuously make the programming available to the customer over the term of the agreement. For contracts with affiliate fees based on the number of the affiliate's subscribers, revenues are recognized based on the contractual rate multiplied by the estimated number of subscribers each period. Affiliate contracts are generally multi-year contracts billed monthly with payments due shortly thereafter.

***Subscription Revenue***

We sell magazines to consumers through subscriptions. Each subscription is determined to be a distinct performance obligation that is satisfied over the term of the subscription, normally one (1) to five (5) years. Payments for subscriptions received in advance of the publication are recorded as deferred revenue and recognized as income over the term, as this best represents the transfer of control of the services to the consumer. We record taxes collected from customers and remitted to governmental authorities on a net basis.

In 2023, we launched Newsmax+ which is a subscription service that provides our broadcast content directly to consumers either on a monthly or annual basis. Monthly subscriptions are recognized as income in the month it was earned. Annual subscriptions are recorded as deferred revenue and recognized as income over the term of the contract each month.

***Product Sales***

Product sales are derived from the sales of books, audio and video, dietary supplements, television production and distribution, and other items advertised on our website. Supplement, books, media and other product sales are recognized at the point in time control transfers to the customer, which is when the product is shipped. Allowances are considered for estimated returns and refunds at the point in time when revenue is recognized. We record taxes collected from customers and remitted to governmental authorities on a net basis.

------

As a practical expedient, we recognize any incremental costs of obtaining contracts as expense as the amortization period is considered to be a year or less. As a practical expedient, we account for shipping and handling activities related to contracts with customers as costs to fulfill the promise to transfer the associated products.

***Shipping and Handling Cost***

Amounts billed to third-party customers for shipping and handling are included as a component of revenue. Shipping and handling costs incurred are included as a component of cost of products sold.

***Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Credit Losses***

We perform ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and maintains allowances for potential credit losses and doubtful accounts. Our allowance for credit losses consists of losses expected based on known credit issues with specific customers as well as a general expected credit loss allowance based on relevant information, including historical loss rates, current conditions, and reasonable economic forecasts that affect collectability.

*Revenues*

Revenues increased by approximately $1.8 million, or 4.0%, for the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2024. Advertising revenue decreased by approximately $(0.5) million due to reductions in digital advertising revenue (given that 2024 was an election year) offset by higher linear cable and satellite advertising revenue due to expanded reach from new affiliate agreements. Affiliate fee revenues increased by approximately $1.5 million due to new contractual relationships as well as rate increases which took effect in 2025. Subscription revenue remained flat due to an increase in subscribers of the Newsmax+ streaming service but was offset by reductions in publication subscriptions due to decreased new customer acquisition. Other revenue increased by approximately $0.7 million due to an amendment of one of our licensing agreements that increased the rate and duration of the partnership.

------

*Cost of Revenues*

Cost of revenues increased by approximately $5.6 million, or 23.4%, for the three months ended September 30, 2025 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2024. The increase was due to increased headcount, programming and production costs on our main Newsmax TV channel as well as continued investment into Newsmax 2 for OTT to build out the programming to better monetize Newsmax 2 on FAST channels. Other drivers related to the increase include stock-based compensation expense, additional costs for remote shoots to cover news events and increase in SMS messaging.

*Gross Profit*

Gross profit decreased by approximately $(3.8) million, or (19.2)%, for the three months ended September 30, 2025 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2024. Gross profit as a percent of revenues decreased to 35.3% for the three months ended September 30, 2025 from 45.4% for the three months ended September 30, 2024. Gross profit decreased mainly due to an increase in cost of revenues.

*General and Administrative Expense*

General and administrative expense decreased by approximately $(5.4) million or (18.9)%, for the three months ended September 30, 2025 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2024. The decrease was primarily driven by the reduction of legal expenses related to Dominion now that the case is settled.

*Other Income (Expense), Net*

Other income (expense), net increased by approximately $4.1 million, or 421.7%, for the three months ended September 30, 2025 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2024. The increase was primarily driven by interest and dividend income as well as a reduction of one-time expenses related to becoming a publicly traded company.

Broadcast Revenues increased by $3.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2024, due to an increase in advertising revenue of approximately $0.8 million due to higher rates, affiliate fee revenue of approximately $1.5 million, which is attributed to new contractual relationships starting later in 2024 as well as rate increases for 2025, and subscription revenue of approximately $0.4 million from Newsmax+ due to an increase in subscribers.

Broadcast Segment Adjusted EBITDA decreased for the three months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2024, primarily due to increases in cost of revenues and SG&A expense related to increased headcount, programming and production costs on our main Newsmax TV channel as well as continued investment into Newsmax 2 for OTT to build out the programming to better monetize Newsmax 2 on FAST channels. Additional cost increases consisted of marketing for TV, audit, and consulting fees

Digital Revenues decreased by $1.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2024, due to decreases in advertising revenue due to 2024 being an election year which drives digital advertising revenue as well as subscription revenue as a result of decreased marketing for new customer acquisitions.

Digital Segment Adjusted EBITDA decreased for the three months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to three months ended September 30, 2024, due to a decrease in advertising and subscription revenues offset by decreases in cost of revenues and general and administrative due to decreased marketing spend.

*Revenues*

Revenues increased by approximately $13.7 million, or 11.1%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2024. Advertising revenue increased by approximately $9.2 million due to higher linear cable and satellite advertising revenue due to higher Nielsen ratings and expanded reach from new affiliate agreements which translated to higher rates but was offset by reductions in digital advertising revenue due to 2024 being an election year. Affiliate fee revenues increased by approximately $2.8 million due to new contractual relationships as well as rate increases which took effect in 2025. Subscription revenue increased by approximately $1.0 million due to an increase in subscribers of the Newsmax+ streaming service but was offset by reductions in publication subscriptions due to decreased new customer acquisition.

*Cost of Revenues*

Cost of revenues increased by approximately $16.0 million, or 23.5%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The increase was due to increased headcount, programming and production costs on our main Newsmax TV channel as well as continued investment into Newsmax 2 for OTT to build

out the programming to better monetize Newsmax 2 on FAST channels. Other drivers related to the increase include stock-based compensation expense, additional costs for remote shoots to cover news events and increase in SMS messaging.

*Gross Profit*

Gross profit decreased by approximately $(2.3) million, or (4.2)%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2024. Gross profit as a percent of revenues decreased to 38.7% for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 from 44.9% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. Gross profit decreased mainly due to an increase in cost of sales related to production head count and stock-based compensation (as described in the preceding paragraph).

*General and Administrative Expense*

General and administrative expense increased by approximately $28.5 million or 23.8%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The increase was driven by increases in legal settlement expense along with increased marketing costs, travel expense related to news coverage, stock-based compensation, and professional and legal services around becoming a public company.

Other (expense) income net increased by approximately $0.4 million, or 46.1%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The increase was primarily driven by non-cash mark to market adjustments for the derivative and warrant liabilities offset by increases in interest and dividend income as well as an increases in unrealized gains on marketable securities.

Broadcast Revenues increased by $17.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2024, due to an increase in advertising revenue of approximately $12.1 million due to higher ratings and pricing and expanded reach from new affiliate agreements, affiliate fee revenue of approximately 2.8 million, which is attributed to new contractual relationships starting later in 2024 as well as rate increases for 2025, subscription revenue of approximately $2.5 million from Newsmax+ due to an increase in subscribers.

Broadcast Segment Adjusted EBITDA decreased for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2024, primarily due to increases in cost of revenues and G&A expense related to increased headcount, programming and production costs on our main Newsmax TV channel as well as continued investment into Newsmax 2 for OTT to build out the programming to better monetize Newsmax 2 on FAST channels. Additional increases consisted of marketing for TV, audit, consulting and legal fees associated with becoming a public company and costs associated with coverage of significant news events including President Donald J. Trump's inauguration, coverage of the funeral for Pope Francis and the papal conclave for the election of Pope Leo XIV and the death of Charlie Kirk. These expense increases were offset by reductions in distribution and carriage costs, fulfillment costs and bank fees.

**Liquidity and Capital Resources**

We had approximately $14.2 million of cash and cash equivalents and $116.2 million in investments as of September 30, 2025. Our primary sources of liquidity include cash on hand and available-for-sale investments.

On September 26, 2024, we entered into a settlement agreement with Smartmatic pursuant to which the parties agreed to resolve the lawsuits among them. We agreed to pay a settlement of approximately $40.0 million payable over time and granted a five year warrant to purchase 2,000 of Series B preferred stock at an exercise price of $5,000 per share. Following the conversion of the underlying Series B preferred stock into Class B common stock in connection with our March 28, 2025 initial public offering, Smartmatic has a five year warrant to purchase 1,333,333 shares of Class B common stock at an exercise price of $7.50 per share. Refer to Note 12. Legal for details of the settlement. As of the date hereof, we have made all payments required under the settlement agreement.

On August 15, 2025, Newsmax Media, Inc. and Newsmax Broadcasting, LLC entered into a settlement agreement with Dominion Voting Systems, Inc. and certain of its affiliates ("Dominion"), pursuant to which such parties agreed to resolve the lawsuit among them for a total amount of $67.0 million to be paid in the current and next two fiscal years. The payments will be made in three installments: (1) $27 million paid on August 15, 2025; (2) $20.0 million on or before January 15, 2026; and (3) $20.0 million on or before January 15, 2027.

The principal uses of cash that affect our liquidity position include the following: operational expenditures including production cost, marketing and promotional expenses, expenses related to broadcasting our programming, employee and facility costs, capital expenditures, income taxes, interest payments and legal fees and settlements.

We completed the Private Placement on February 27, 2025, having sold 45,000 shares of its Series B Preferred Stock, resulting in net proceeds of approximately $206.7 million.

We believe these sources of liquidity are sufficient to meet its business operating requirements and its capital expenditures for the next 12 months from the issuance date of these condensed consolidated financial statements.

*Convertible Preferred Stock*

Convertible Preferred Stock as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 (0 and 41,034 total shares authorized, respectively, and all classes are $0.001 par value per share) is as follows:

*Cash and Cash Equivalents*

As of September 30, 2025, cash and cash equivalents balance was approximately $14.2 million. Cash and cash equivalents consist of interest-bearing deposit accounts and money market accounts managed by third-party financial institutions, and highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less. The existing cash and cash equivalents, along with projected cash flows, are sufficient to fund our liquidity needs for the next 12 months. At this time, we do not anticipate the need to raise additional capital.

The following table shows our cash flows from operating activities, investing activities and financing activities for the stated periods:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| | **September 30,** | **September 30,** |
| | **2025** | **2024** |
| **Net cash provided by (used in):** |  |  |

| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Investing activities | (56740900) | (183021) |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Financing activities | 153951608 | 50332341 |

---

*Operating Activities*

Net cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was $107.1 million and was primarily due to a net loss and the funding of the settlement escrow offset by stock-based compensation and a increase in the settlement liability.

Net cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was $21.2 million and was primarily due to a net loss and offset by the change in fair value of warrant liability and increases in settlement liability.

*Investing Activities*

Net cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was $56.7 million primarily due to the purchase and sale of investments.

Net cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was $(0.18) million primarily due to an increase in the sale of investments offset by purchases of fixed assets.

*Financing Activities*

Net cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was $154.0 million primarily due to a proceeds received from issuances of convertible stock and common stock in the initial public offering.

Net cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was $50.33 million primarily due to a proceeds received from issuances of convertible stock.

**Non-GAAP Financial Measures**

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as revenues less cost of revenues and general and administrative expenses and does not include depreciation and amortization, interest expense, net, impairment charges, unrealized gains (losses) on marketable securities, stock-based compensation, other corporate matters (consisting primarily of certain litigation expenses, and related fees, for specific legal proceedings that we have determined are infrequent and unusual in terms of their magnitude), other, net, and income tax expense.

Management believes that information about Adjusted EBITDA assists all users of our financial statements by allowing them to evaluate changes in the operating results of our portfolio of businesses separate from non-operational factors that affect net income, thus providing insight into both operations and the other factors that affect reported results. Adjusted EBITDA provides management, investors and equity analysts a measure to analyze the operating performance of our business and its enterprise value against historical data and competitors' data, although historical results, including Adjusted EBITDA, may not be indicative of future results (as operating performance is highly contingent on many factors, including customer tastes and preferences).

------

Adjusted EBITDA is considered a non-GAAP financial measure and should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, net income, cash flow and other measures of financial performance reported in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). In addition, this measure does not reflect cash available to fund requirements and excludes items, such as depreciation and amortization and impairment charges, which are significant components in assessing our financial performance. Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

**Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements**

As of September 30, 2025, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

**Critical Accounting Estimates**

There have been no material changes in our critical accounting policies and estimates from those disclosed in Part II; Item 7: "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations; Critical Accounting Policies" contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

**JOBS Act Accounting Election**

Section 102(b)(1) of the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the "JOBS Act") exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a registration statement declared effective under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or do not have a class of securities registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (the "Exchange Act")) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that an emerging growth company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such an election to opt out is irrevocable. We have elected not to opt out of such extended transition period, which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies and we, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of our financial statements with another public company that is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company that has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.

**ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK**

We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and are not required to provide the information otherwise required under this Item.

**ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES**

**Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures**

Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") and Chief Financial Officer ("CFO"), as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Our management, with the participation of our CEO and CFO, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15(d)-15(e) of the Exchange Act, as of September 30, 2025. Based on such evaluation, our CEO and CFO have concluded that as of September 30, 2025, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting described below.

*Internal Control over Financial Reporting*

Our management identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024. A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

We identified the following material weaknesses in our internal control over financing reporting:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Lack of adequate policies and procedures to support the operation of our business processes and internal control framework, including monitoring activities. In addition, we have not documented risk assessment procedures to set suitable objectives, identify relevant business risks, assess fraud risk, and develop associated responses to those risks. This includes designing appropriate business process controls in each of the following business cycles: revenue (including evaluation of new and modified contracts for proper accounting), period-end reporting, procure to pay, asset management, treasury, payroll, equity and income tax.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Evidence is not maintained to support the review and approval of the complete population of journal entries including maintaining appropriate segregation of duties.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Evidence is not maintained to support that certain controls were appropriately designed and implemented to ensure timely reporting of complete and accurate financial information. Specifically, we lacked evidence over review of subledgers and account reconciliations to ensure timely detection of material misstatements in financial statement balances and the related footnote disclosures in each of the following business cycles: revenue, period-end reporting (including financial statement disclosures), procure to pay, asset management, and treasury.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Management did not fully design, implement and monitor general information technology controls in the areas related to privileged access, provisioning, terminations, user access review, vulnerability assessment and backup recovery controls and segregation of duties for systems supporting substantially all of our internal control processes. These ineffective information technology controls contributed to (i) improper segregation of duties among certain business process controls and (ii) ineffective data validation of spreadsheets and system-generated reports.

As of September 30, 2025, the material weaknesses previously identified in our internal control over financial reporting continue to exist. The Company remains actively engaged in remediation efforts and is committed to strengthening its internal control environment.

During 2025, we have undertaken, and continue to undertake, several remediation measures designed to address these material weaknesses. These efforts include, among other actions, hiring additional accounting personnel with appropriate technical expertise, engaging qualified third-party advisors to assist with complex accounting and financial

------

reporting matters, and enhancing documentation surrounding accounting policies, internal controls, and significant transactions.

We are also formalizing elements of our business processes, strengthening supervisory reviews and management oversight, and evaluating the ongoing effectiveness of our internal controls. Additional steps are being implemented to improve our financial reporting systems and to establish new or revised control procedures where necessary.

While these remediation activities are in progress, and management believes the measures being implemented will enhance our internal control framework, the material weaknesses have not yet been fully remediated as of September 30, 2025. The Company will continue to devote the necessary resources to complete these remediation efforts as expeditiously as possible.

Newsmax Inc.'s future compliance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act may require that it incur substantial accounting expenses and expend significant management efforts. Newsmax Inc. may not be able to complete its evaluation, testing and any required remediation in a timely fashion. During the evaluation and testing process, if Newsmax Inc. identifies one or more material weaknesses in its internal control over financial reporting, it may be unable to assert that its internal control over financial reporting is effective. Any failure to maintain internal control over financial reporting could severely inhibit Newsmax Inc.'s ability to accurately report our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. If Newsmax Inc. is unable to conclude that its internal control over financial reporting is effective, it could lose investor confidence in the accuracy and completeness of its financial reports, the value of the Shares could decline, and it could be subject to sanctions or investigations by regulatory authorities. Failure to remediate any material weakness in Newsmax Inc.'s internal control over financial reporting, or to implement or maintain other effective control systems required of public companies, could also restrict Newsmax Inc.'s future access to the capital markets.

*Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting*

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended September 30, 2025 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting

**Part II - Other Information**

**ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS**

From time to time we are subject to a number of lawsuits, including claims relating to competition, intellectual property rights, alleged libel or defamation, employment and labor matters, personal injury and property damage, free speech, customer privacy, regulatory requirements, and advertising, marketing and selling practices. Except as set forth below, we are currently not aware of any legal proceedings or claims that will have, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or operating results. For more information, see "Risk Factors – Risks Related to Legal and Regulatory Matters."

On August 10, 2021, Dominion Voting Systems Corporation, Inc. or certain of its affiliates, an election technology company, filed a complaint against Newsmax Media in the Superior Court of the State of Delaware for defamation in connection with our coverage of the 2020 Presidential election, seeking up to $1.6 billion in compensatory damages as well as punitive damages. On August 15, 2025, Newsmax Media, Inc. and Newsmax Broadcasting, LLC entered into a settlement agreement with Dominion Voting Systems, Inc. and certain of its affiliates ("Dominion"), pursuant to which such parties agreed to resolve the lawsuit among them for a total amount of $67 million to be paid in the current and next two fiscal years. The payments will be made in three installments: (1) $27 million paid on August 15, 2025; (2) $20 million on or before January 15, 2026; and (3) $20 million on or before January 15, 2027.

In addition, on November 3, 2021, Smartmatic USA Corp. or certain of its affiliates, another election technology company, filed a complaint against Newsmax Media in the Superior Court of the State of Delaware for defamation, seeking compensatory, consequential and punitive damages to be determined at trial. Newsmax Media reached a settlement agreement with Smartmatic on September 26, 2024, pursuant to which all claims will be released by Smartmatic for consideration, including a cash amount of approximately $40 million payable over time and granted a five year warrant to purchase 2,000 of class B preferred stock at an exercise price of $5,000 per share. Following the conversion of the underlying Series B preferred stock into Class B common stock in connection with our March 28, 2025 initial public offering, Smartmatic has a five year warrant to purchase 1,333,333 shares of Class B common stock at an exercise price of $7.50 per share. Management believes the settlement with Smartmatic will, subject to the payment of all consideration in a timely manner, reduce then eliminate future legal expenses we would have expected to bear related to this suit, which could have included costly appellate legal actions and other matters. A stipulation of dismissal will be filed with the court. Refer to Note 12. Legal for details of the settlement.

**ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS**

The following risks update the risk factors previously disclosed in our most recent Annual Report. Please refer to Part I, Item 1.A Risk Factors in our Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2024 for other risks related to our business.

***Taxing authorities may successfully assert that we should have collected or in the future should collect sales and use, value added or similar taxes, and any such assessments could adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.***

Sales and use, value added and similar tax laws and rates vary greatly by jurisdiction. Certain jurisdictions in which we do not collect such taxes may assert that such taxes are applicable or that our presence in such jurisdictions is sufficient to require us to collect taxes, which could result in tax assessments, penalties and interest, and we may be required to collect such taxes in the future. Such tax assessments, penalties and interest or future requirements may adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations. Further, in June 2018, the Supreme Court held in South Dakota v. Wayfair, Inc. that states could impose sales tax collection obligations on out-of-state sellers even if those sellers lack any physical presence within the states imposing the sales taxes. Under the Wayfair decision, a person requires only a "substantial nexus" with the taxing state before the state may subject the person to sales tax collection obligations therein. An increasing number of states (both before and after the publication of the Wayfair decision) have considered or adopted laws that attempt to impose sales tax collection obligations on out-of-state sellers. The Supreme Court's Wayfair decision has removed a significant impediment to the enactment and enforcement of these laws, and it is possible that states may seek to tax out-of-state sellers on sales that occurred in prior tax years, which could create additional administrative burdens for us, put us at a competitive disadvantage if such states do not impose similar obligations on our competitors, and decrease our future sales, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

***We are subject to risks of doing business in other countries, including those related to tariffs, trade restrictions and government actions.***

We are subject to the risks of doing business internationally, which increasingly include the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• changes in regulatory requirements or other executive branch actions, such as Executive Orders;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• changes in the global trade environment, including potential deterioration in geopolitical or trade relations between countries;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• disputes with authorities in non-U.S. jurisdictions, including international trade authorities;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• imposition of domestic and international taxes, export controls, tariffs, duties, embargoes, sanctions and other trade restrictions;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• changes to U.S. and non-U.S. government policies, including sourcing restrictions, requirements to expend a portion of program funds locally and governmental industrial cooperation or participation requirements; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the complexity and necessity of using non-U.S. representatives and consultants.

**ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS** 

*Private Placement*

In June 2024, the Company launched an offering of its Series B Preferred Stock in a private placement pursuant to Regulation D of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Private Placement"). The initial offering was for up to 30,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock at $5,000 per share for a base offering amount of $150,000,000, with the option to expand up to 45,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock for an offering amount of $225,000,000. The Company completed the Private Placement on February 27, 2025, having sold 45,000 shares of its Series B Preferred Stock, resulting in net proceeds to the Company of approximately $206.7 million. In connection with the Private Placement, the Company issued

------

a three-year warrant to Digital Offering, LLC, as placement agent for the Private Placement, exercisable for 600,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock with an exercise price per share of $12.50. The shares of common stock described above were issued in reliance on an exemption from registration under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act in that such transactions did not involve a public offering and/or Regulation D promulgated thereunder.

*Regulation A Offering*

On February 7, 2025, the Company filed an offering statement on Form 1-A (as amended, the "Offering Statement", File #024-12567) with the SEC for the sale of up to 7,500,000 shares of Class B Common Stock at $10.00 per share (the "Reg A IPO"). The Offering Statement was declared qualified by the SEC on March 7, 2025. The Company completed the Reg A IPO on March 28, 2025, having sold 7,500,000 shares of its Class B Common Stock, resulting in net proceeds to the Company of approximately $70.3 million, after deducting commissions. Digital Offering, LLC acted as lead selling agent. The shares of Class B Common Stock were issued pursuant to Regulation A of Section 3(b) of the Securities Act for Tier 2 offerings.

*Use of Proceeds from Regulation A Offering*

The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Reg A IPO for its own general and corporate expenses. The Company may, in its sole discretion, make capital contributions to Newsmax Media from time to time to fund working capital needs and business initiatives. Such working capital needs may include costs related to talent and programming, marketing, distribution and digital expansion. In the ordinary course of business, Newsmax Media expects to evaluate the acquisition of, investment in or in-license of complementary products, technologies or businesses, and could use a portion of the net proceeds from the Reg A IPO for such activities; however, Newsmax Media currently does not have any agreements, arrangements, or commitments with respect to any potential acquisition, investment or license.

The expected use of the net proceeds from the Reg A IPO represents the Company's intentions based upon its current plans, financial condition and business conditions. Predicting the cost to be used in Newsmax Inc. and the Subsidiaries' businesses can be difficult and the amounts and timing of their actual expenditures may vary significantly depending on numerous factors including the status of our development efforts, sales and marketing activities and the amount of cash generated or used by our operations. The Company may find it necessary or advisable to use portions of the proceeds for other purposes. As a result, the Company's management will retain broad discretion over the allocation of the net proceeds from the Reg A IPO.

**ITEM 3. DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES**

None.

**ITEM 4. MINE SAFETY DISCLOSURES**

Not applicable.

**ITEM 5. OTHER INFORMATION**

During the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2025, none of our directors or executive officers adopted or terminated any contract, instruction or written plan for the purchase or sale of Company securities that was intended to satisfy the affirmative defense conditions of Rule 10b5-1(c) or any "non-Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement."
