SiriusXM Radio Ups Guidance For Year


SiriusXM has announced that it is increasing its full-year 2020 guidance for SiriusXM self-pay subscriber net additions to approximately 700,000.  This is an increase from the prior guidance of approximately 500,000, first issued on July 30, 2020. 

The Company also reiterated its existing 2020 financial guidance.

"Our business continues to demonstrate strong performance and favorable trends since we resumed providing our subscriber and financial guidance in conjunction with our second quarter earnings report.  Our conversion and churn performance remain excellent, and it's clear that demand for SiriusXM remains strong – quite simply, consumers continue to find immense value in our unique audio bundle and all of the entertainment and information it provides.  Additionally, improving new auto sales, combined with a rising new car penetration rate, have led to a robust trial funnel that we believe bodes well for the coming quarters," said Jim Meyer, Chief Executive Officer, SiriusXM.

"Today we also reiterate our full-year financial guidance for revenue, adjusted EBITDA, and free cash flow as we continue to see steady recovery in the advertising market coupled with the financial results of a very healthy core subscription business," added Meyer.

The Company's full-year 2020 guidance for self-pay net subscriber additions, revenue, adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow are as follows:
  • SiriusXM self-pay net subscriber additions of approximately 700,000,
  • Total revenue of approximately $7.7 billion,
  • Adjusted EBITDA of approximately $2.4 billion, and
  • Free cash flow approaching $1.6 billion.
