Townsquare Media Reports 'Strong Momentum'


Townsquare Media, Inc. has announced financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2019.

“Townsquare’s strong momentum continued into the second quarter, with net revenue, net income from continuing operations, and Adjusted EBITDA increasing 7.4%, 23.5%, and 19.0%, respectively, over the second quarter of the prior year,” commented Bill Wilson, Chief Executive Officer of Townsquare.

“Our second quarter growth rates were fueled by an acceleration in Advertising net revenue growth, which increased 7.1% excluding political revenue over the prior year, and the strong net revenue growth of Townsquare Interactive, which increased 30.8% over the prior year. Townsquare Interactive added approximately 1,100 net subscribers in the second quarter, a significant increase in quarterly net additions over prior quarters, while maintaining strong profit margins in excess of 30%. The ongoing strong performance of Townsquare Interactive and Townsquare Ignite, our proprietary digital programmatic advertising platform, reinforce our belief that each of those divisions will generate $100 million in annual net revenue within the next three to five years.”

Wilson added, “Our broad product suite of high quality, locally focused broadcast, digital and live event offerings has allowed us to provide complete, end-to-end marketing solutions for our customers while simultaneously driving net revenue and Adjusted EBITDA growth. With greater than one-third of our total net revenue originating from digital sources, Townsquare is not your average radio company. As a result of the ongoing strength of Townsquare Interactive and Townsquare Ignite, we believe that Townsquare is best described as a premier local and digital marketing solutions company, bringing large market solutions to small and mid-sized markets.”

The Company also announced today that its Board of Directors approved a quarterly cash dividend of $0.075 per share. The dividend will be payable on November 15, 2019 to shareholders of record as of the close of business on September 26, 2019.
