Operating loss widened to $54.0 million from $1.9 million year-over-year, driven by lower political advertising, soft radio markets, and cable TV audience declines.
Significant capital markets transaction completed: repurchased 2028 notes at a discount, extended maturities to 2031, and upsized ABL credit facility, stabilizing capital structure.
Q1 2026 started slower than expected, with radio pacings down about 5%, but operational changes and upcoming political revenue are expected to help.
Financial highlights
Q4 2025 net revenue declined by $19.3 million year-over-year, mainly due to a $12.6 million drop in political advertising and $7.1 million lower cable TV revenue.
Operating expenses for Q4 2025 were $151.9 million, up from $119.0 million in Q4 2024, mainly due to a $55.3 million impairment charge.

Outlook and guidance
2026 EBITDA guidance remains at $70 million, but management will update after Q1 due to current uncertainties.

Positive on operational changes and political revenue expected in 2026.

One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.
