Nexstar Media Group Inc Earnings Call Summary for Q2/2026
- Nexstar reported record Q2 2026 revenue of $1.99B (+62.2% YoY), beating estimates by $110M, but EPS of $3.61 missed forecasts by 36.3% due to TEGNA acquisition costs.
- Adjusted EBITDA rose to $633M and free cash flow more than doubled to $238M, driven by political advertising, distribution revenue, and local digital sales growth.
- Management expects strong political ad spending through 2026, The CW to turn profitable in Q4, and plans to repay over $1B debt by year-end, reaching pre-acquisition leverage by 2028.
- CEO Sook noted FCC's elimination of national broadcast ownership cap reduces M&A uncertainty, though debt reduction remains the immediate priority over share buybacks.
- Company faces elevated leverage with $11.7B debt (5.76 debt-to-equity ratio) and non-political advertising weakness, expected to decline mid-single digits in Q3.
