Townsquare Media, Inc. (NYSE: TSQ) (“Townsquare”, the "Company," "we," "us," or "our") announced today its financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2024.

“I am pleased to share that Townsquare’s momentum is building as demonstrated by another quarter of sequential net revenue improvement, primarily due to our local focus and our unique and differentiated digital platform. Second quarter net revenue decreased -2.5% year-over-year and Adjusted EBITDA decreased -8.3% year-over-year, both meeting guidance and reflecting a sequential improvement from first quarter declines. In the second quarter, the Company reported a net loss of $48.9 million, in large part due to non-cash impairment charges. Our Q2 performance was driven by stabilizing and/or improving trends across segments: Townsquare Interactive returned to sequential revenue growth in each month of the quarter, as a result of positive subscriber trends that have improved dramatically compared to previous quarters; Digital Advertising net revenue growth continued at +1% year-over-year; and Broadcast Advertising net revenue was approximately flat as compared to the prior year, an improvement from first quarter declines. In total, Digital represented 52% of Townsquare’s net revenue in the first six months of the year,” commented Bill Wilson, Chief Executive Officer of Townsquare Media, Inc. “Additionally, we continue to generate strong cash flow, granting us the ability to invest in our digital growth engine while preserving financial flexibility, as evidenced by our ongoing debt and share buybacks in the open market. In fact, S&P Global upgraded their rating of our Senior Secured Notes (the “Notes”) from B to B+ in June, citing our performance and credit metrics. In the first six months of the year, we have repurchased and retired $14 million of our Notes at a discount to par, and repurchased $22 million of equity, or 2.2 million shares, including the accretive share repurchase of 1.5 million shares from Madison Square Garden. At the same time, we have maintained our high yielding dividend and a strong cash balance, which was $29 million at the end of the second quarter.”

Mr. Wilson concluded, "Most importantly, due to our current cash position and our strong cash generation, we retain financial flexibility moving forward and we are confident in our ability to build shareholder value for our investors through long-term net revenue and cash flow growth, net leverage reduction, future dividend payments, and potential future share repurchases.

The Company announced today that its Board of Directors approved a quarterly cash dividend of $0.1975 per share. The dividend will be payable on November 1, 2024 to shareholders of record as of the close of business on October 15, 2024. As of yesterday’s closing price that reflects a dividend yield of approximately 7%.

Subscription Digital Marketing Solutions net revenue decreased $2.8 million, or 12.9%, Other net revenue decreased $0.6 million, or 11.0%, and Broadcast Advertising net revenue decreased $0.1 million, or 0.2%, as compared to the same period in 2023. These decreases were partially offset by an increase in Digital Advertising net revenue of $0.4 million, or 1.0%, as compared to the same period in 2023. Excluding political revenue of $1.5 million and $0.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, net revenue decreased $4.1 million, or 3.4%, to $116.8 million, Broadcast Advertising net revenue decreased $1.0 million, or 1.9%, to $52.3 million, and Digital Advertising net revenue increased $0.3 million, or 0.7%, to $41.4 million.

Net LossFor the three months ended June 30, 2024, we reported a net loss of $48.9 million, as compared to a net loss of $2.7 million in the same period last year. The increase was primarily due to a $25.3 million increase in the income tax provision due to an increase in the valuation allowance for interest expense carryforwards, as well as increases in non-cash impairment charges, stock-based compensation, and transaction and business realignment costs, and decreases in other income and net revenue. Adjusted Net Income decreased $6.1 million as compared to the same period last year.

Adjusted EBITDAAdjusted EBITDA for the three months ended June 30, 2024 decreased $2.4 million, or 8.3%, to $26.2 million, as compared to $28.6 million in the same period last year. Adjusted EBITDA (Excluding Political) decreased $3.3 million, or 11.6%, to $25.0 million, as compared to $28.3 million in the same period last year.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2024 Compared to the Six Months Ended June 30, 2023

Net RevenueNet revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2024, decreased $6.5 million, or 2.9%, to $217.9 million as compared to $224.3 million in the same period in 2023. Subscription Digital Marketing Solutions net revenue decreased $6.1 million, or 14.2%, Other net revenue decreased $0.7 million, or 10.1%, and Broadcast Advertising net revenue decreased $0.6 million, or 0.6%. These declines were partially offset by an $0.8 million, or 1.1%, increase in Digital Advertising net revenue as compared to the same period in 2023. Excluding political revenue of $2.5 million and $0.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, net revenue decreased $8.4 million, or 3.7% to $215.3 million, Broadcast Advertising net revenue decreased $2.3 million, or 2.3%, to $96.8 million, and Digital Advertising net revenue increased $0.7 million, or 0.9%, to $75.5 million.

Net LossFor the six months ended June 30, 2024, we reported a net loss of $47.3 million, as compared to a net loss of $4.6 million in the same period last year. The increase was primarily due to a $27.1 million increase in the income tax provision due to an increase in the valuation allowance for interest expense carryforwards, as well as increases in stock-based compensation and transaction and business realignment costs, and decreases in net revenue and other income (expense), partially offset by a decrease in direct operating expenses. Adjusted Net Income decreased $7.6 million as compared to the same period last year.

Adjusted EBITDAAdjusted EBITDA for the six months ended June 30, 2024 decreased $4.3 million, or 9.0% to $43.8 million, as compared to $48.1 million in the same period last year.

Forward-looking statements often discuss our current expectations and projections relating to our financial condition, results of operations, plans, objectives, future performance and business. You can identify forward-looking statements by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. These statements may include words such as “aim,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “expect,” “forecast,” “outlook,” “potential,” “project,” “projection,” “plan,” “intend,” “seek,” “believe,” “may,” “could,” “would,” “will,” “should,” “can,” “can have,” “likely,” the negatives thereof and other words and terms. Actual events or results may differ materially from the results anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of a variety of factors. While it is impossible to identify all such factors, factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those estimated by us include the impact of general economic conditions in the United States, or in the specific markets in which we currently do business including supply chain disruptions, inflation, labor shortages and the effect on advertising activity, industry conditions, including existing competition and future competitive technologies, the popularity of radio as a broadcasting and advertising medium, cancellations, disruptions or postponements of advertising schedules in response to national or world events, our ability to develop and maintain digital technologies and hire and retain technical and sales talent, our dependence on key personnel, our capital expenditure requirements, our continued ability to identify suitable acquisition targets, and consummate and integrate any future acquisitions, legislative or regulatory requirements, risks and uncertainties relating to our leverage and changes in interest rates, our ability to obtain financing at times, in amounts and at rates considered appropriate by us, our ability to access the capital markets as and when needed and on terms that we consider favorable to us and other factors discussed in this section entitled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in this report and under “Risk Factors” in our 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K, for the year ended December 31, 2023, filed with the SEC on March 15, 2024, as well as other risks discussed from time to time in our filings with the SEC. Many of these factors are beyond our ability to predict or control. In addition, as a result of these and other factors, our past financial performance should not be relied on as an indication of future performance.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures and DefinitionsIn this press release, we refer to Adjusted Operating Income, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA (Excluding Political), Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Net Income Per Share which are financial measures that have not been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”).

We define Adjusted Operating Income by Segment as operating income by segment before the deduction of depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, corporate expenses, transaction costs, business realignment costs, impairments and net loss (gain) on sale and retirement of assets. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income before the deduction of income taxes, interest expense, net, gain on repurchases of debt, transaction and business realignment costs, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, impairments, net loss (gain) on sale and retirement of assets and other expense (income) net. We define Adjusted EBITDA (Excluding Political) as Adjusted EBITDA less political net revenue, net of a fifteen percent deduction to account for estimated national representative firm fees, music licensing fees and sales commissions expense. Adjusted Net Income is defined as net income before the deduction of transaction and business realignment costs, impairments, gain on sale of investment, change in fair value of investment, net loss (gain) on sale and retirement of assets, gain on repurchases of debt, gain on sale of digital assets, gain on insurance recoveries and net income attributable to non-controlling interest, net of income taxes stated at the Company's applicable statutory effective tax rate. Adjusted Net Income Per Share is defined as Adjusted Net Income divided by the weighted average shares outstanding. We define Net Leverage as our total outstanding indebtedness, net of our total cash balance as of June 30, 2024, divided by our Adjusted EBITDA for the twelve months ended June 30, 2024. These measures do not represent, and should not be considered as alternatives to or superior to, financial results and measures determined or calculated in accordance with GAAP. In addition, these non-GAAP measures are not based on any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles. You should be aware that in the future we may incur expenses or charges that are the same as or similar to some of the adjustments in the presentation, and we do not infer that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. In addition, these non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly-named measures reported by other companies.

We use Adjusted Operating Income by Segment to evaluate the operating performance of our business segments. We use Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA (Excluding Political) to facilitate company-to-company operating performance comparisons by backing out potential differences caused by variations in capital structures (affecting interest expense), taxation and the age and book depreciation of facilities and equipment (affecting relative depreciation expense), which may vary for different companies for reasons unrelated to operating performance, and to facilitate year over year comparisons, by backing out the impact of political revenue which varies depending on the election cycle and may be unrelated to operating performance. We use Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Net Income Per Share to assess total company operating performance on a consistent basis. We use Net Leverage to measure the Company’s ability to handle its debt burden. We believe that these measures, when considered together with our GAAP financial results, provide management and investors with a more complete understanding of our business operating results, including underlying trends, by excluding the effects of transaction costs, net loss (gain) on sale and retirement of assets, business realignment costs and certain impairments. Further, while discretionary bonuses for members of management are not determined with reference to specific targets, our board of directors may consider Adjusted Operating Income by Segment, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA (Excluding Political), Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Net Income Per Share, and Net Leverage when determining discretionary bonuses.
