Is PodcastOne close to being acquired? The company says it has had "multiple" people interested in buying the company; and has formed a special committee, and retained a financial advisor, to examine them. This is after one of its shareholders sent PodcastOne a letter telling them to retain an investment bank or strategic advisor, saying that its shares were undervalued. The company's shares are up around 50% on the news, and are currently around $2.59; in May they were trading at over $5, though.
SiriusXM reported its Q3/26 financial results. Podcast ad revenue at the company grew 20% year-on-year; though the company doesn't qualify how much that is. Video and "social podcast advertising" more than doubled. The company says it has had some "supply constraints" within podcasting.
On Air Fest has unveiled the first set of speakers for its tenth anniversary edition. It's in Brooklyn, Feb 23-25.
