Fiscal 2019 Results
Play MPE® currency adjusted revenue for the year ended August 31, 2019 grew by 9.1% over fiscal 2018. Increases in revenue were driven by expanded Major Record label use in Europe and the USA and expanded independent label use in the USA and Australia.

"2019 was a year of many exciting changes for Play MPE® and for the company" said Fred Vandenberg, Chief Executive Officer for Destiny Media Technologies. "We have made several significant key additions to the team and expanded our ability to innovate and grow the Play MPE business leading to early positive returns."
