Revenue came in at C$863,431, up from C$666,643 YoY, delivering net income of C$4,174, reversing a net loss of C$47,009 YoY.
General and administrative expenses were C$336,499, up from C$221,763 YoY, reflecting higher professional fees tied to audit, accounting and legal services. These costs were offset by C$61,059 in debt forgiveness, following the resolution of numerous historical obligations.
Icarus collected C$70,000 under its ongoing private placement, which seeks to raise up to C$170,000 at C$0.05 per share to top up working capital and fund strategic initiatives focused on core operations.
The company stepped away from a potential deal to acquire full control of the Yuk Yuk’s brand following the passing of its founder, Garry Yuill.

“Our growth strategy has focused on expanding our programming in a measured way while making greater use of the infrastructure and relationships we already have in place,” added Arjun Rudra, Chief Financial Officer. “During the first half of 2026, we continued to add new shows and enter additional markets while remaining focused on the economics of each opportunity. We believe this disciplined approach is beginning to be reflected in our operating results.”
