Mixed Q2 results. While revenues beat expectations ($273.4 million versus our $262.9 million estimate), adj. EBITDA was 13% lower than expected ($14.2 million versus our $16.4 million estimate). The revenue variance was due to its Digital revenue, $10 million above our expectations. Notably, the biggest adj. EBITDA variance was due to lower margins in its Digital Media segment. 

A Facebook faceplant. The company’s Digital Media margins going forward will be adversely affected by Meta (Facebook) is reducing Entravision’s commission revenue, from 10% to 7%. We estimate that this will adversely affect the company by over $8 million in adj. EBITDA in the second half 2023. While margins will take a hit, the company’s Digital Media revenue growth appears favorable and adj. EBITDA is expected to grow strong double digits in 2024.

Upcoming quarterly results. The company is expected to report second quarter results on Thursday, August 10th with an investor call scheduled for 5pm ET. The dial in number is (888) 350-2056. 

Mixed results. We believe that the company will be in line with our revenue estimate of $29.65 million, up 39.5%, reflecting modest Buy-side advertising growth of 3.5% and strong Sell-side advertising growth of roughly 67%. Sell-side margins are expected to decline to roughly 12.5%, due to a step up in costs for additional servers. We do not believe that the increase costs will be ongoing and that Sell-side margins should rebound to the near 14% range for the balance of the year.

Shuns Inside Favorite. Entravision’s board appointed Michael Christenson as its Chief Executive Officer, effective July 1, 2023, denying Chris Young, the interim CEO and CFO, the position. Mr. Christenson has a decades long career as an investment banker and held leadership roles at software companies New Relic and CA Technologies. 

What does the move tell us? We believe that the appointment signals that the company will become more aggressive in seeking acquisitions. As of March 31, the company had a pristine balance sheet with roughly $180 million in cash and marketable securities and $207 million in debt, or a modest 0.3 times net debt to estimated cash flow. Given Mr. Christenson’s investment banking background, we believe that M&A likely will be his mandate.

Repurchase at a discount. The company announced that it repurchased and retired 1.5 million shares from Madison Square Garden Company (MSG) at $9.70 per share, an 8.5% discount on the recent market price. The share repurchase accounts for nearly half of MSG’s previous ownership, and approximately 8.5% of total TSQ shares outstanding. The move follows an earlier move to initiate a hefty quarterly dividend. Separately, the TSQ shares will join the Russell 3000 and Small-Cap Russell 2000 Indices. 

Ample liquidity, accretive to per share estimates. We estimate that the company had $67 million in cash prior to the repurchase and retains a substantial cash position following the transaction. The move is accretive to cash flow and earnings per share estimates, which are being adjusted to reflect the fewer shares outstanding.

Revising revenue forecast. We are refining our 2023 and 2024 revenue forecasts. The bulk of the changes relate to our Digital subscription and Digital advertising revenue outlooks. Note: our full year total revenue and adj. EBITDA forecasts are largely unchanged. Figure #1 Forecast Revisions illustrates our updated forecast.

Lowering TSI forecast. Economic weakness has put pressure on many of the SMBs that make up TSI’s client base. Typically, the company offers temporary discounts to assist SMBs. We believe this is will have an impact on revenue in 2023, particularly the first half. Our 2023 TSI revenue forecast is lowered from $91.7 million to $85.9 million, which equates to a 6% YoY decline. We are forecasting flat revenue growth in 2024, which offers potential upside should economic conditions improve.

Strong Q1 results. The company reported quarterly revenue of $239 million, 4.4% better than our estimate of $229 million. The quarter was driven by robust digital revenue growth of 28%, notably, Latin America and Asia grew revenues by 15% and 35%, respectively. Adj. EBITDA in the quarter was $13 million, slightly less than our estimate of $13.5 million, attributed to an increase in variable expenses from digital revenue.

In total, Q2 total company revenues are pacing up a strong 19%, indicating that the company is performing nicely in spite of economic headwinds.
