Entravision Communications Corporation reported first quarter 2026 results showing strong overall revenue growth driven by its advertising technology business.

Consolidated net revenue rose 114% year-over-year to $196.9 million, fueled by a 204% increase in its Advertising Technology & Services (ATS) segment. The company said the gains were driven by higher numbers of active advertisers and increased revenue per advertiser, supported by investments in artificial intelligence and expanded sales capacity.

The Media segment posted a more modest 4% revenue increase, reflecting gains in digital advertising and retransmission fees that were partially offset by declines in broadcast advertising and spectrum usage revenue. Local advertising revenue rose 6%, while national advertising fell 18%, excluding political.

Operating profit improved significantly to $29.1 million, compared to $3.9 million a year earlier, with ATS generating $34.3 million in operating profit. The Media segment recorded an operating loss of $5.2 million.

On the bottom line, the company reported net income of $12.4 million, or $0.13 per share, compared to a net loss of $48.0 million, or $(0.53) per share, in the prior-year period, as shown in the consolidated statements on page 4 of the report.

Entravision ended the quarter with $71.1 million in cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities and $162.2 million in total debt. During the quarter, the company repaid $5 million in debt and paid $4.6 million in dividends.

The company also announced a quarterly dividend of $0.05 per share, payable June 30 to shareholders of record as of June 16.
