The latest update is out from Alliance Entertainment Holding ( (AENT) ).

Alliance Entertainment reported strong results for its fiscal third quarter ended March 31, 2026, with net revenues rising 21.1% year over year to $258.2 million and net income increasing 25% to $2.3 million. For the first nine months of fiscal 2026, revenue grew 5% to $880.9 million while net income surged 78% to $16.6 million, and adjusted EBITDA climbed 47% to $35.7 million, underscoring improving profitability and scale.

Growth was fueled by robust demand for physical media and collectibles, including double-digit increases in vinyl, CDs, movies, gaming and electronics, alongside a 48% jump in collectibles revenue driven by a premium product mix. Alliance advanced its technology and platform strategy with the launch of Endstate Authentic and Alliance Authentic, and the post-quarter relaunch of Movies Unlimited, moves that deepen its push into authenticated collectibles and direct-to-consumer channels while maintaining cost discipline, expanding operating leverage and preserving ample liquidity to support ongoing expansion.

The most recent analyst rating on (AENT) stock is a Buy with a $9.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Alliance Entertainment Holding stock, see the AENT Stock Forecast page.

**Spark’s Take on AENT Stock**

According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, AENT is a Neutral.

The score is driven mainly by improved financial performance (profitability turnaround and reduced leverage) and a constructive earnings call highlighting margin expansion and liquidity improvement. These positives are tempered by weaker technical momentum and lingering top-line/cash-flow consistency risks, with valuation appearing reasonable but not strongly compelling without dividend support.
