Delivered a mixed second quarter for fiscal 2026, posting results in line with its own guidance but underscored by a jarring GAAP net loss of $41.81 million, driven largely by $26.64 million in non-cash FCC license impairment charges that obscured otherwise stable underlying performance. Net revenue came in at $115.35 million, essentially flat year-over-year at -0.1%, while adjusted EPS of $0.21 reflected steady profitability on a non-GAAP basis. The clearest bright spot was Digital Advertising through its Townsquare Ignite platform, where revenue accelerated 11.0% year-over-year as programmatic advertising gained traction and the company's Media Partnerships business expanded to 16 partners across 41 incremental markets. Offsetting that momentum, Townsquare Interactive revenue slid 8.5% to $17.17 million, and Broadcast Advertising fell 5.5% to $46.51 million. Management reiterated full-year 2026 guidance of $425 million to $431 million in net revenue and $87 million to $90 million in Adjusted EBITDA, with digital businesses already comprising 57% of first-half net revenue and further momentum expected in Q3.

Key Takeaways

  • Digital Advertising revenue accelerated to 11% YoY growth from 7% in Q1 2026 and 2% for full-year 2025
  • Media Partnerships business scaling rapidly, now serving 16 partners across 41 incremental markets
  • Townsquare Interactive achieved record segment profit margins of nearly 38%
  • Broadcast Advertising outperformed the broader industry despite 5.5% revenue decline
  • Political revenue of $1.3 million in Q2 2026 vs $0.6 million in Q2 2025

TSQ Forward Guidance & Outlook

For Q3 2026, net revenue is expected to be between $108 million and $110 million, and Adjusted EBITDA is expected to be between $22.5 million and $23.5 million. For full year 2026, net revenue is expected to be between $425 million and $431 million, and Adjusted EBITDA is expected to be between $87 million and $90 million, both within original guidance ranges. Digital Advertising momentum is expected to further strengthen in Q3. Media Partnership revenue is expected to more than double in 2026.
