Marchand says he's going to savor this trip to Cup final, knowing the chance isn't guaranteed again
FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. — Brad Marchand won the Stanley Cup with the Boston Bruins when he was 23. He and the Bruins played for it again when he was 25 and 31. He wondered if he would ever return to the title round.
At 37 — and with the Florida Panthers — he's gotten there.
And this time, Marchand is making sure he savors the chance.
Over 1,274 games in his career, including playoffs, there are some memories that escape Marchand now. There are some moments that he acknowledges taking for granted, moments where he didn't use an extra second or two to appreciate being part of. That won't happen now, he insists, since Marchand knows he's much closer to the end of his career than the beginning.
'It's more like enjoying each day like, having fun when you come to the rink,' Marchand said. 'It can be stressful when you start overthinking things, start looking ahead or the pressure sometimes you put on yourself. This time around, I'm coming to the rink every day and just having fun and trying to live in the moment. You know, not taking anything too seriously.'
Except the hockey, that is.
Marchand is incredibly serious about the task at hand — which resumes Wednesday night when Marchand and the Panthers open the Stanley Cup Final at Edmonton. It's a rematch of last season's Panthers-Oilers series, one that Florida won in seven games. It wasn't difficult to envision a rematch when that series ended. But there's probably nobody on the planet who would have thought the rematch would include the former Boston captain playing for Florida.
'This is special,' Marchand said. 'You don't get a lot of opportunities to be part of something like this.'
The Panthers are 8-2 in the playoffs when Marchand gets a point, 4-3 when he doesn't. They're 9-1 when he logs at least 15 1/2 minutes of ice time in the playoffs, 3-4 when he doesn't. It's clear: At his age, he still impacts winning with his hands and his voice.
'Guys that are vocal and intense sometimes will get up and down your bench screaming at your bench, right? They just get so wired in the game and he never does that. It's always positive,' Panthers coach Paul Maurice said. 'It's always, 'Stay in there, hang in there.' ... It's bordering on legendary status at this point. He's pumping their tires and he's just, every day, excited. It's his personality.'
There is a very clear silly side as well.
Marchand made a trip to Dairy Queen on an off day with teammates essentially become a three-day story by saying he had one of their desserts between periods of a game against Carolina. (He didn't, the snack was honey, not a Blizzard.) He has been chirping teammates from the day he arrived in Florida. He embraces how teammates shoot the toy rats — a Panthers tradition that goes back to 1996 — at him after games, even calling it a family reunion once in a subtle nod to his 'rat' nickname.
He keeps it light, until it's time not to. If there's a scrum on the ice, he'll be involved. If a teammate needs backup, he'll be there. A chance at the Cup might not come again, and Marchand — who came to Florida at the trade deadline in a stunner of a move — is vowing that this opportunity won't be wasted.
'I may never get back this late in playoffs ever again in my career,' Marchand said. 'To be one of the last teams standing and being part of a great group of guys, these are memories that I want to remember and enjoy. I don't remember some of the series that I played and I know that there's moments that I missed out on or didn't really appreciate because I was worried about other things or stressing about other things. I'm not going to do that to myself this time around.'

Cineverse Revenue Jumps 22 Percent in Q1
Key Points Revenue rose 22% from the prior year to $11.1 million, led by streaming and digital distribution growth. Direct operating margin improved to 57%, up 6 percentage points, despite higher operating costs. Losses widened as adjusted EBITDA fell to $(2.1) million, with cash and working capital pressure emerging. These 10 stocks could mint the next wave of millionaires › Cineverse (NASDAQ:CNVS), the streaming technology and media company, reported results on August 14, 2025. The big news: revenue rose to $11.1 million, a 22% increase year over year, fueled by gains across its streaming and theatrical content divisions. Direct operating margin increased to 57%, up from 51% in the prior-year period. However, losses deepened, with adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) declining to $(2.1) million, versus $(1.4) million in the prior year. There were no public analyst estimates for the quarter. Overall, this period showed solid top-line growth and operational momentum, but also highlighted ongoing investment-driven losses and emerging liquidity pressures. Metric Q1 FY 2026(Quarter Ended June 30, 2025) Q1 FY 2025(Quarter Ended June 30, 2024) Y/Y Change EPS (GAAP) $(0.21) $(0.20) (5.0%) Revenue $11.1 million $9.1 million 22.0% Direct Operating Margin 57% 51% 6.0 pp Adjusted EBITDA $(2.1) million $(1.4) million (50.0%) Cash and Cash Equivalents $2.0 million Not disclosed Business Overview and Recent Focus Cineverse operates as a digital streaming and technology company. Its business centers on delivering film, television, and original content over a range of streaming channels. The company develops software for content recommendation and distribution, maintains ownership rights to a library of over 71,000 titles, and runs direct-to-consumer (DTC) streaming services. In recent quarters, Cineverse emphasized scaling its proprietary Matchpoint software platform, expanding its streaming channels, and acquiring perpetual or long-term content rights. The company's key success factors include growing viewership, monetizing content through multi-channel distribution, and deepening technology adoption among enterprise customers and industry partners. Quarter in Detail: Revenue, Strategy, and Operations Streaming and digital revenue led growth again, increasing to $9.1 million, with monthly viewership across all channels up an estimated 38%, totaling over 4 billion minutes streamed. Base distribution revenue, which includes theatrical and DVD sales, surged 192% from the prior year to $1.0 million. Management directly attributed the large increase in Q4 FY2025 to strong performance from the Terrifier 3 film release. Direct operating margin rose to 57%, up 6 percentage points from the prior-year period. That said, profitability remained under pressure. The company's net loss (GAAP) widened to $(3.6) million, or $(0.21) per share. Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure of operating earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization, declined to $(2.1) million, falling 50% from the previous year's level. Management pointed to 'Investments in SG&A and marketing to support our expanding theatrical business and our Technology Group' as drivers of these increased losses, while signaling expectations that returns from these investments would start to show in Q2 FY2026. Selling, general, and administrative (SG&A) expenses rose 36% to $9.0 million. The increase was attributed to ramped-up spending on compensation, legal, and marketing, as well as costs linked to year-end audit, tax, and regulatory compliance. The company signaled its strategic approach: front-load spending in content and technology to prioritize longer-term growth and market share. Notably, Cash and cash equivalents were $2.0 million. The line of credit remained largely untapped, with $8.9 million available at quarter-end and an additional $5.8 million of cash received in July 2025 from the redemption of nearly two million warrants. However, with working capital turning negative at $(0.3) million. Technology, Content, and Platform Initiatives The company's Matchpoint technology platform, which provides automated content distribution and data analytics for streaming operators, continued to be a core strategic focus. During the quarter, Cineverse launched cineSearch, an artificial intelligence (AI)-based content recommendation tool, on the Google Cloud Marketplace. It also began pilots for Matchpoint Dispatch with major studio partners during Q4 FY2025, aiming to expand from small operators to enterprise-scale adoption. A new executive was brought in to lead the technology group, signaling further intent to commercialize these assets. For content, Cineverse's business model centers on acquiring and distributing rights to genre films and family entertainment. Its strategy involves owning distribution rights for the long term, seeking to reduce risk and maximize reward if a property achieves break-out success. Management noted the upcoming releases of The Toxic Avenger Unrated, Silent Night, Deadly Night, and Return to Silent Hill across fiscal 2026. The film slate is balanced across horror and family genres. Audience growth remained a highlight. Monthly viewers rose to 209 million, a 20% increase, and total minutes streamed climbed 38%. Each segment saw gains versus the prior-year period, with Screambox -- Cineverse's horror and genre streaming channel -- reporting a 27% spike in viewership following the Terrifier 3 release. Subscription video-on-demand (SVOD) users hit 1.38 million. The company claimed a market valuation of approximately $40 million on its digital content library as of March 31, 2024, though the book value reflected on its June 30, 2025 balance sheet is just $2.9 million. Strategic partnerships also expanded this quarter. Cineverse formed MicroCo, a new joint venture targeted at microseries and short-form drama, with industry players including Banyan Media. The company also acquired U.S. rights for Air Bud Returns, developed connections with new podcast networks, and solidified technology relationships through products like cineSearch. Management Outlook and What to Watch Next Management expects returns from its investments in both film and technology to begin emerging next quarter. Technology pilots for Matchpoint and cineSearch are also entering commercial stages, with management highlighting potential annual revenue in the 'mid-7-figure' range if trials convert to enterprise deals, as discussed on the Q4 FY2025 earnings call. However, no formal revenue or profit guidance was provided for the year ahead, and management did not issue new dividend guidance or declare a dividend for common shareholders. Looking ahead, investors will be watching revenue streams from new theatrical releases. Liquidity and working capital levels also bear monitoring, given the current low cash balance and negative working capital position. Revenue and net income presented using U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) unless otherwise noted.

Other than the corrections discussed herein, all other information disclosed in the earnings release remains unchanged. The updated earnings release reads: Amaze Reports Second Quarter 2025 Financial Results with 1,134% Year-Over-Year Revenue Growth Accompanying Shareholder Letter Available at With Q2 Revenue Baseline, Company Expects Sequential Topline Growth for Remainder of 2025 NEWPORT BEACH, Calif., Aug. 14, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Amaze Holdings, Inc. (NYSE American: AMZE) ('Amaze' or the 'Company'), a global leader in creator-powered commerce, today reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2025. Recent Operational Highlights Surpassed 200 million lifetime storefront visits and 12 million active creators, underscoring the Amaze platform's scale and influence in the rapidly expanding creator economy. Announced several marquee partnerships in recent weeks, including Alex Caruso, Jamvana, Loaded Dice, Nutrius, and Ghost Gaming, among others.

'To solidify our position as the go-to platform for creators, we launched new integrations like Express Checkout and AI-driven selling tools, and we also expanded monetization opportunities to Roblox players and Picsart users. These innovations helped us surpass 200 million storefront visits and over 12 million active creators on the platform. 'Financially, we generated $0.87 million in net revenue this quarter, which we view as a strong baseline for future growth. Over the past several quarters, we've devoted significant time and effort to recapitalize the business and retool our technology infrastructure. With both initiatives far along, we now have improved liquidity to strategically invest in our business, which we expect to lead to accelerating topline growth and improved KPI performance through the second half of the year.' Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) Gross Merchandise Value (GMV): $3.77 million Average Order Value (AOV): $50.00 (1H 2025) U.S. Conversion Rate: .41% of all traffic Creator Lifetime Value (LTV): $200.00 Total Active Creators with Stores: Over 12 million Total Number of Active Visitors: Over 200 million Second Quarter 2025 Financial Results Results compare the second quarter ended June 30, 2025 ('Q2 2025') to the second quarter ended June 30, 2024 ('Q2 2024') unless otherwise indicated. Results from Q2 2024 represent only Fresh Vine Wine, Inc. results. Total revenue increased 1,134% to $0.87 million in Q2 2025 from $0.07 million in the same year-ago period. The increase in net contribution revenue was mostly attributable to the addition of sales from Amaze as the Company closed the acquisition during the first quarter of 2025. Gross profit increased 1,903% to $0.79 million in Q2 2025 from $(0.04) million in the same year-ago period. The increase in gross profit is primarily due to the operating leverage of the Amaze platform, which enables high-margin digital and physical sales with lower incremental cost compared to traditional wholesale models. Net loss was $5.0 million, or $(3.14) per share, in Q2 2025 compared to net loss of $0.88 million, or $(1.30) per share, in the same year-ago period. The increase in net loss is largely driven by a $4.0 million increase in SG&A expenses that are primarily related to operating costs associated with Amaze's creator-focused business model, including personnel, legal and professional services related to the reverse merger, and marketing costs to support platform growth. The Company had $0.31 million in cash at June 30, 2025, compared to $0.16 million at December 31, 2024. Outlook Amaze management expects to build on the base provided by its Q2 performance, both at the top and bottom line. The Company foresees net revenue continuing to ramp sequentially in Q3 as well as into Q4. As a result of these material topline increases, combined with additional organizational efficiencies, Amaze also expects to generate a temporary profit in Q4 2025/Q1 2026 due to an increase in sales related to the seasonality of the business. Amaze's Q3 2025, Q4 2025 and Q1 2026 financial outlook is based on a number of assumptions that are subject to change and many of which are outside our control. If actual results vary from these assumptions, our expectations may change. There can be no assurance that we will achieve these results.
