BOULDER, CO – November 3, 2025 - Gaia, Inc. (NASDAQ: GAIA), a conscious media and community company, reported financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2025.
Highlights:
•Revenue increased 14%, compared to the prior year quarter
•Launched proprietary AI model
•Seventh consecutive quarter of positive operating and free cash flow generation
“Last October, we raised our subscription prices for most of our members by two dollars. While the losses from the price increase resulted in slower member growth, our revenue grew to a $100 million run-rate, or $25.0 million, during the third quarter, up from $22.0 million in the last year quarter,” said Jirka Rysavy, Gaia’s Chairman.
Kiersten Medvedich, Gaia’s CEO, commented: “We’re pleased to report good revenue growth this quarter. Last week’s launch of our proprietary AI Guide marks an important milestone as we invest in AI and our global community platform, key initiatives that will increase engagement across our site and content. Together, these initiatives position Gaia for a future where technology strengthens connection and enriches how our members experience Gaia.”
Gaia CFO, Ned Preston, stated: “In the third quarter of 2025, when compared to the third quarter of 2024, we delivered 14%, revenue growth, reaching a $100 million revenue run-rate. We continue to strengthen our financial position by generating positive operating and free cash flow, underscoring our disciplined approach and long-term growth. Free cash flow for the first nine months of 2025 improved by $1.4 million to $3.2 million compared to the same time frame from a year-ago.”
Third Quarter 2025 Financial Results
Revenue increased $3.0 million, or 14%, to $25.0 million, compared to $22.0 million in Q3 2024. Member count increased by 37,000 to 883,000 as of September 30, 2025, up from 846,000 from September 30, 2024. The growth was driven by organic and acquired members, plus increasing Average Revenue Per User (“ARPU”).
Gross profit increased 14% to $21.6 million from $19.0 million in Q3 2024, with gross margin improving to 86.4%, up from 86.1% in the year-ago quarter.
Net loss was $(1.2) million, or ($0.05) per share, versus $(1.2) million or ($0.05) per share, in Q3 2024.
For the third quarter, our free cash flow was $0.9 million compared to $0.1 million in the year-ago quarter, representing the seventh consecutive quarter of positive free cash flow. For the first nine months of 2025, free cash flow was $3.2 million, up from $1.8 million during the same period of last year.

Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. All statements other than statements of historical fact are forward looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. When used in this discussion, we intend the words “anticipate,” “believe,” “contemplate,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “future,” “hope,” “intend,” “may,” “might,” “objective,” “ongoing,” “plan,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “should,” “strive,” “target,” “will,” “would” and similar expressions as they relate to us to identify such forward-looking statements. Our actual results could differ materially from the results anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors set forth under “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in our filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, including in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024. Risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ include, without limitation: our ability to attract new members and retain existing members; our ability to compete effectively, including for customer engagement with different modes of entertainment; maintenance and expansion of device platforms for streaming; fluctuation in customer usage of our service; fluctuations in quarterly operating results; service disruptions; production risks; general economic conditions; future losses; loss
of key personnel; price changes; brand reputation; acquisitions; new initiatives we undertake; security and information systems; legal liability for website content; failure of third parties to provide adequate service; future internet-related taxes; our founder’s control of us; litigation; consumer trends; the effect of government regulation and programs; the impact of public health threats; and other risks and uncertainties included in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. We caution you that no forward-looking statement is a guarantee of future performance, and you should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements which reflect our views only as of the date of this press release. We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking information.
Non-GAAP Measures
In addition to disclosing financial results calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (GAAP), the financial information included in this release contains non-GAAP financial measures, including Free Cash Flow. These non-GAAP measures should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures and results calculated in accordance with GAAP, including net income, and reconciliations to GAAP financial statements should be carefully evaluated. Free Cash Flow represents net cash provided by operating activities plus cash paid for interest payments, less cash used for capital expenditures, plus cash from non-core business activities. We believe Free Cash Flow is also useful as one of the bases for comparing the Gaia’s performance with its competitors. Although Free Cash Flow and similar measures are frequently used as measures of cash flows generated from operations by other companies, Gaia’s calculation of Free Cash Flow might not necessarily be comparable to such other similarly titled captions of other companies. We believe that both management and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing our performance and when planning, forecasting and analyzing future periods.
