About Reservoir Media, Inc.

Reservoir Media, Inc. (ticker: RSVR) is a U.S.-based music rights and media company listed on the NASDAQ in the United States. For international investors, Reservoir is best understood as an intellectual-property platform rather than a traditional entertainment producer: it acquires, administers and monetizes music copyrights and master recordings across publishing and recorded music. The company was founded in 2007 as a family-owned music publisher and has since expanded through a strategy of strategic acquisitions, long-duration ownership of rights and active catalog management. Its headquarters are in New York City, and it operates internationally through offices in Los Angeles, Nashville, Toronto, London, Abu Dhabi and Mumbai, giving it a broad geographic footprint across key music markets.

The publishing arm earns revenue from the use of musical compositions, including performance, synchronization, mechanical and other licensing uses, while the recorded music business monetizes sound recordings through labels and catalog exploitation. Reservoir’s recorded music platform includes Chrysalis Records, Tommy Boy Music, Reservoir Recordings and additional label brands and catalog assets. This structure allows the company to capture value from both sides of the music ecosystem: the composition and the master recording.

The company has highlighted a recurring top-10 U.S. publishing market share position in Billboard’s Publishers Quarterly, while also emphasizing its ability to partner with songwriters, artists and independent labels seeking long-term collaborators. Its competitive strengths include catalog acquisition expertise, A&R capabilities, global licensing relationships and the ability to operate across genres and geographies.

In February 2026, Reservoir reported third-quarter fiscal 2026 results showing revenue growth and an improved full-year outlook, with publishing revenue and recorded music revenue both increasing year over year. In 2025, Reservoir announced several strategic moves, including the acquisition of U.K. dance and electronic label New State, the launch of Mumbai-based subsidiary PopIndia, and a multifaceted deal with Fool’s Gold Records. These transactions reinforce Reservoir’s international expansion and its focus on acquiring culturally relevant catalogs while continuing to develop frontline music activity.
