"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.
