Entravision Communications reported second-quarter 2026 net revenue of $227.9 million, up 126% from $100.7 million in the same period last year, driven by rapid growth in its Advertising Technology & Services business.

The company's Advertising Technology & Services segment generated $182.8 million in revenue, a 230% increase from $55.3 million a year ago. Entravision attributed the gain to increases in monthly active advertisers and revenue per advertiser, fueled by investments in the platform's artificial intelligence capabilities and expanded sales capacity.

Meanwhile, Entravision's Media segment, which includes its U.S. radio and television properties along with digital marketing services, saw revenue decline 1% to $45.1 million. The company cited lower broadcast advertising and spectrum usage rights revenue, partially offset by growth in digital advertising and retransmission fees. Excluding political revenue, local advertising increased 1% while national advertising fell 19%.

Media segment operating results swung to a loss of $3.3 million from a $354,000 profit a year earlier. Advertising Technology & Services operating profit, however, surged to $40.0 million from $5.2 million. Overall segment operating profit increased to $36.7 million from $5.5 million.

Entravision posted second-quarter net income attributable to common stockholders of $19.7 million, or 19 cents per diluted share, compared with a net loss of $3.3 million, or four cents per share, in the year-ago quarter. Operating income totaled $30.0 million versus an operating loss of $848,000 last year.

For the first six months of 2026, consolidated revenue rose 121% to $424.9 million. Advertising Technology & Services revenue increased 218% to $337.4 million, while Media revenue grew 1% to $87.5 million.

CEO Michael Christenson said Entravision repaid $5 million on its bank term loan during the quarter and remains committed to reducing debt and maintaining a strong balance sheet. The company ended June with $83.4 million in cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities and $157.3 million in long-term debt and current maturities.

Entravision's board also approved a quarterly cash dividend of five cents per share, payable September 30 to shareholders of record at the close of business September 16.
