April 15, 2020 4:00 PM EDT | Source: Destiny Media Technologies, Inc.

Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - April 15, 2020) - Destiny Media Technologies (TSXV: DSY) (OTCQB: DSNY), the makers of Play MPE®, a cloud-based music distribution, collaboration and content discovery platform, today announced financial results for its fiscal 2020 second quarter ended February 29, 2020.

Highlights

Highlights for the quarter include:

  • Play MPE® launched in Canada starting with Universal Music Canada in late January;
  • Play MPE® platform improvements include sending side translations into Spanish, German, Japanese and French and recipient side improvements to song discovery and ease of use; and
  • Play MPE® business development group restructured including the hiring of a new director of business development.

Fiscal 2020 Second Quarter Results

In the Company's slowest seasonal quarter ending February 29, 2020, Play MPE® revenue fell by approximately $57,000, due to the timing of contract renewal negotiations. Global Play MPE® independent label revenue continues to increase.

"During the quarter we started to see the results of investments into product development with two significant releases for the Play MPE® platform." said Fred Vandenberg, Chief Executive Officer for Destiny Media Technologies. "Play MPE® continues to be the most advanced platform and these releases will assist in the expansion of Play MPE® into new markets. The Company saw a significant step during the quarter with the start of the expansion into Canada."

The Company commenced a stock repurchase program in September 2019, resulting in market purchases to April 12, 2020 of 550,140 shares (representing 5% of shares outstanding as of August 31, 2019) for a total cost of $533,223 USD.
