SINGAPORE, June 30, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- FAST TRACK GROUP $(FTRK)$ ("Fast Track" or the "Company"), a leading entertainment-focused event management and celebrity agency company, announced its financial and operational results for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2026, and issued a letter to shareholders highlighting recent operational highlights and future business outlook.
Management Commentary - Chief Executive Officer Harris Lim
Dear Valued Shareholders,
As we reflect on this past fiscal year, I am pleased to share the operational momentum and financial improvements Fast Track has achieved. In 2025, we made a commitment to strengthen our celebrity agency business, as we believe this line of work positions us to be a more valuable partner to our clients and celebrity partners while building a scalable platform for long-term financial growth. This past fiscal year offered an early indication of that strategy in action, and we are encouraged by the results to date and the foundation they provided for our broader growth trajectory.
Fiscal 2026 Reflection
Beyond refining our business model and strategic focus, we made targeted investments back into our business, particularly in our sales and partnerships team. These investments were designed to help us engage with projects at an earlier stage, remain a trusted and embedded partner, deepen relationships across our client and celebrity network, identify opportunities to expand into future engagements, and ultimately deliver higher-quality services.
These investments helped Fast Track execute several meaningful deals with celebrities, brands, clients, and agencies during the fiscal year. These opportunities included multiple brand activation projects in collaboration with renowned APAC celebrities, strategic partnerships with talent management and creative agencies, Fast Track-led celebrity events, and our appointment as an official representative of the rising K-pop group KIIRAS.
While these opportunities contributed to our strong financial results for the year, we believe their greater significance lies in the quality and nature of the deals we are now able to secure. Multi-part projects, long-term celebrity partnership, and the expansion of our celebrity roster validate our strategy of moving beyond one-off engagements. They demonstrate that our commercial momentum is accelerating through larger, more strategic enterprise partnerships. We believe these projects can serve as an operational blueprint for monetizing premium entertainment ecosystems and validation that Fast Track can help clients pursue multi-project contracts in a market where many competitors remain focused on single-project engagements. And as we continue to scale our business, we expect our cost structure to become more balanced and normalized over time.
Together, these accomplishments demonstrate that our strategic initiatives are gaining market traction and strengthening the foundation of our business. With a more resilient model, deeper industry relationships, and a growing pipeline of higher-quality opportunities, Fast Track is well-positioned to continue creating value and driving sustainable growth across the Southeast Asian entertainment market.
Fiscal 2027 Outlook
At our current size and scale, our team remains focused on driving top-line growth, strengthening operational resilience, and further developing a scalable, recurring business model. The opportunities secured over the past several months will serve as foundational pieces to build off. Our recent three-part celebrity partnership agreement with Dream Cruises is a clear example of this in action. Not only are we replicating the three-part brand activation model, we are also re-engaging Amotti and KIIRAS, two celebrities we worked with in 2025 and early 2026, to support this project. We intend to continue expanding our celebrity and broader industry partner network to identify and pursue new collaboration opportunities in the future.
Beyond these commercial wins, our team is currently in advanced stages of formalizing a transformational partnership with a Tier 1 global media conglomerate. We view this milestone as an opportunity to meaningfully expand our platform to a much larger audience currently out of our reach. We believe this move has the potential to fundamentally redefine Fast Track's long-term valuation, broaden access to scaled business opportunities and celebrity networks, and ultimately create lasting shareholder value.
As our project portfolio, industry partnerships, and pipeline continue to expand, strategic growth capital will inevitably become necessary. Certain opportunities may require upfront investment to unlock their future earnings potential. We intend to balance these near-term capital needs with long-term shareholder considerations, ensuring that any growth initiative is pursued thoughtfully and with discipline.
We appreciate the continued support of our investors and partners as we navigate and enter the next phase in Fast Track's journey. The opportunities we are pursuing are centered on sustainable growth and long-term shareholder value, and we remain grateful for your confidence in our direction.
Sincerely,
Harris Lim
Chief Executive Officer and Director

Total Revenues increased 112% to $1.7 million for the full year ended February 28, 2026, compared to $0.8 million in the same period last year.

Cost of Revenue increased to $1.0 million for the full year ended February 28, 2026, compared to $0.7 million in the same period last year.
