We measure two new times of light maximum of the SX Phoenicis star DY Pegasi in 2008 December and collect 410 pe/CCD times of light maximum that had been published. These data could be modeled with a nonlinear fit including a continuously decreasing period change (dP/dt = -9.04x10^–12 days/day) and a periodic change with a period of 42.2 yr. If this periodic change is caused by the light traveling time effect of an orbital motion of DY Pegasi in a binary system, the deduced mass of the companion could be 0.028 M_☉ and it is probably a brown dwarf.
