BURBANK, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–
Entravision Communications Corporation (NYSE: EVC), a media and advertising technology company, today announced financial results for its second quarter ended June 30, 2026.
“Net revenue in our Media segment decreased 1% in second quarter 2026 compared to second quarter 2025 due to lower broadcast advertising revenue and revenue from spectrum usage rights which were partially offset by an increase in digital advertising revenue and retransmission fees. Local advertising revenue increased 1% and national advertising revenue decreased 19%, excluding political revenue,” said Michael Christenson, Chief Executive Officer. “Net revenue in our Advertising Technology & Services segment increased 230% in second quarter 2026 compared to second quarter 2025. The ATS segment had higher monthly active advertisers and higher revenue per monthly active advertiser. These results were driven by the investments in the AI capabilities of our platform and our expanded sales capacity.”
Mr. Christenson continued, “We repaid $5 million on our bank term loan in the second quarter of 2026, and we remain committed to reducing our debt and maintaining a strong balance sheet.”
