Entravision Communications posted a 22% increase in consolidated net revenue for the second quarter of 2025, driven by substantial gains in its Advertising Technology & Services segment, despite a continued decline in traditional broadcast revenues.

Second quarter consolidated revenue reached $100.7 million, up from $82.7 million in Q2 2024. The Advertising Technology & Services segment grew 66% year-over-year to $55.3 million, offsetting an 8% decline in Media segment revenue, which fell to $45.4 million due to reduced broadcast advertising and retransmission consent revenue. That was partially counterbalanced by increases in digital ad sales and spectrum usage revenue.

CEO Michael Christenson highlighted the turnaround from Q1 and strong performance of the company's ad tech business. "We're encouraged by the sequential improvement in Media and the momentum in our Advertising Technology & Services segment, which reflects the success of our expanded sales force and the integration of AI into our tech platform," he said.

Segment operating profit for the quarter totaled $5.5 million, a 28% year-over-year decrease. Media segment profit dropped 94% to $0.4 million, while the Advertising Technology & Services segment posted a 190% jump in operating profit to $5.2 million.

Corporate expenses were significantly reduced-down 41%-driven by lower salary, severance, rent, and professional services costs.

Entravision also strengthened its balance sheet during the quarter with a $10 million voluntary debt prepayment and a $4.5 million dividend payout. Subsequent to quarter-end, the company amended its credit agreement on July 15 to support accelerated debt reduction.

Net loss from continuing operations was $3.5 million for Q2 2025, compared to net income of $3.7 million a year ago. Including discontinued operations, the company reported a net loss attributable to common stockholders of $3.3 million, or $0.04 per share.

Entravision ended the quarter with $69.3 million in cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities, down from $100.6 million at year-end 2024.

The board of directors approved a quarterly cash dividend of $0.05 per share, payable September 30 to shareholders of record as of September 16.
