TriNetX Supports European Healthcare Organizations on the Path to EHDS Readiness

The TriNetX federated real-world data network unlocks innovation while supporting interoperability and European Health Data Space (EHDS) compliance

GHENT, Belgium, Aug. 4, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — European healthcare organizations (HCOs) face a critical window as the European Health Data Space (EHDS) secondary-use framework takes shape across national implementation plans. Institutions without interoperable, well-governed research data infrastructure risk being left behind. TriNetX, the world’s leading federated real-world data network with the largest covered population in Europe, today announced a new initiative to help European HCOs transform and harmonize their clinical data into the Observational Medical Outcomes Partnership Common Data Model (OMOP CDM), Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR), and other interoperable standards aligned with EHDS requirements. In addition, HCOs may choose to make their data available for research through participation in the TriNetX LIVE™ network using a range of advanced data-sharing approaches that preserve local control and governance.

“European HCOs are entering a vital planning period for research data readiness,” said Steve Lethbridge, Senior Vice President, Global Healthcare Partnerships at TriNetX. “TriNetX’s expertise is reflected in a harmonized global network representing more than 300 million patient lives, with data mapped to internationally recognized terminology standards that support the OMOP CDM and FHIR. This foundation can help institutions advance data quality, improve research readiness, and position themselves for the opportunities emerging through the EHDS.”

“This is about more than compliance,” added Jeffrey S. Brown, PhD, TriNetX’s Chief Scientific Officer. “An OMOP-ready research environment can help HCOs transform fragmented clinical data into a governed, high-value asset. In doing so, they can expand access to research collaborations, attract new funding opportunities, and increase participation in clinical trials and other research programs — all while adhering to strong security and governance frameworks that ensure physical and operational control over all patient and institutional data.”

URBAN ONE, INC. REPORTS SECOND QUARTER 2026 RESULTS

Published

on

By

SILVER SPRING, Md., Aug. 4, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Urban One, Inc. (NASDAQ: UONEK and UONE, referred to as, “Urban One,” the “Company”, “we”, “our” and/or “us”) today reported its results for the three months ended June 30, 2026. For the three months ended June 30, 2026, net revenue was approximately $85.8 million, a decrease of 6.4% from the same period in 2025. The Company reported operating loss of approximately $11.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to operating loss of approximately $120.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025. Broadcast and digital operating income(1) was approximately $22.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026, a decrease of $3.5 million from the same period in 2025. Net loss was approximately $7.1 million or $(1.58) per share (basic) for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to net loss of $77.9 million or $(17.41)(a) per share (basic) for the same period in 2025. Adjusted EBITDA(2) was approximately $11.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to approximately $14.0 million for the same period in 2025.

Alfred C. Liggins, III, Urban One’s CEO and President stated, “We saw some sequential improvement in the second quarter compared to the first quarter, with lower rates of revenue decline. Cable Television was down 7.4%, Digital was down 8.4%, Radio was down 3.9%, and Reach Media dropped by 10.6%. In Radio, our Miller Kaplan local Radio revenues were down 10.1% year-over-year vs. the market down 7.8%; and national was down 1.5% vs. the market down 4.6%. Including local digital, second quarter Radio revenue was down 4.9%. We did approximately $1.4 million in gross political advertising in the second quarter. Radio third quarter is pacing down 2.8%. We remain in a turnaround situation at Reach Media, where we continue to be impacted by a weak marketplace, key client attrition and sales team re-building. We continue to closely manage cash flows from operations, with concerted efforts to collect receivables and manage discretionary vendor spend. During the three months ended June 30, 2026, the Company repurchased approximately $23.5 million of its 2031 Second Lien Notes at a weighted average price of approximately 42.0% of par. Year-to-date, that is a total reduction in long-term debt of $60.2 million for an annual interest savings of $4.6 million and an increase in short-term debt of $10.0 million. During the quarter we completed the disposition of WLNK and WMXG in Charlotte. Our revised Adjusted EBITDA(2) guide for 2026 is now in the mid-fifty-million dollar range, given the realities of the current marketplace.”

This press release includes forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Forward-looking statements represent management’s current expectations and are based upon information available to Urban One at the time of this release. These forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors, some of which are beyond Urban One’s control, which may cause the actual results to differ materially from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially are described in Urban One’s reports on Forms 10-K, 10-Q, 8-K and other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Urban One does not undertake any duty to update any forward-looking statements.

For the three months ended June 30, 2026, we recognized approximately $85.8 million in net revenue compared to approximately $91.6 million during the three months ended June 30, 2025. These amounts are net of agency commissions. We recognized approximately $35.3 million of revenue from our Radio Broadcasting segment during the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to approximately $36.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, a decrease of approximately $1.4 million. This decrease was primarily driven by weaker overall market demand from the national and local advertisers. We recognized approximately $4.8 million of revenue from our Reach Media segment during the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to approximately $5.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, a decrease of approximately $0.5 million. This decrease was primarily driven by a decrease in syndicated revenue. We recognized approximately $9.4 million of revenue from our Digital segment during the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to approximately $10.3 million during the three months ended June 30, 2025, a decrease of approximately $0.9 million. The decrease was primarily driven by the decrease in direct revenue streams, reflecting reduced advertising spend from diversity, equity and inclusion-focused campaigns. We recognized approximately $37.1 million of revenue from our Cable Television segment during the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to approximately $40.1 million during the three months ended June 30, 2025, a decrease of approximately $3.0 million. The decrease was primarily driven by the churn of subscribers and lower advertising sales.

Operating expenses, excluding depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, and impairment of goodwill, intangible assets and long-lived assets, were approximately $75.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to approximately $78.1 million for the comparable period in 2025. Operating expenses were down by approximately 4.1%, driven mainly by revenue-related variable expenses such as media monitoring, traffic acquisition costs, bad debt reserve, as well as third-party professional fees.

Impairment of goodwill, intangible assets and long-lived assets was approximately $14.2 million for three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $130.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025. The impairment loss of $14.2 million during the three months ended June 30, 2026 represents approximately $13.9 million goodwill impairment charge related to the Reach Media reporting unit and approximately $0.3 million impairment charge related to the long-lived asset of Reach Media.

Depreciation and amortization expense was approximately $6.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to approximately $3.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, an increase of approximately $2.7 million. This increase is primarily driven by the Radio Broadcasting licenses amortization, which the Company started to amortize effective June 1, 2025.

Interest expense was approximately $2.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to approximately $9.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, a decrease of approximately $7.6 million. This decrease was due to lower overall debt balances outstanding and lower effective interest rates. The Company recognizes interest expense using an effective interest rate of approximately 5.32% on the 2030 First Lien Notes, 0.15% on the 2031 Second Lien Notes, and 7.71% on the 2028 Notes for the three months ended June 30, 2026. The effective interest rates on the 2030 First Lien Notes and 2031 Second Lien Notes differ from the contractual interest payment primarily as a result of the accounting for these debt instruments under Accounting Standards Codification No. 470-60, Troubled Debt Restructurings by Debtors.

For the three months ended June 30, 2026, we recorded a benefit from income taxes of approximately $1.7 million on the pre-tax loss of approximately $8.7 million resulting in an actual effective tax rate of 19.6%. For the three months ended June 30, 2025, we recorded a benefit from income taxes of approximately $21.4 million on pre-tax loss of approximately $99.4 million resulting in an actual effective tax rate of 21.5%, which includes $6.4 million of discrete tax expense related to the change of accounting estimate for radio broadcasting licenses that impacted our valuation allowance.

Other pertinent financial information includes capital expenditures of approximately $1.7 million and $1.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The increase in capital expenditure is driven by the build-out of a studio in the Indianapolis radio market.

Urban One Inc. (urban1.com), together with its subsidiaries, is the largest diversified media company that primarily targets Black Americans and urban consumers in the United States. The Company owns TV One, LLC (tvone.tv), a television network serving more than 30 million households, offering a broad range of original programming, classic series and movies designed to entertain, inform, and inspire a diverse audience of adult Black viewers. As of July 31, 2026, following the Service Broadcasting Group, LLC acquisition, the Company owned and/or operated 76 independently formatted, revenue producing broadcast stations (including 59 FM or AM stations, 15 HD stations, and the 2 low power television stations the Company operates), located in 13 of the most populous African-American markets in the United States. Through Reach Media, Inc. (blackamericaweb.com), the Company also operates syndicated programming including the Rickey Smiley Morning Show, and the DL Hughley Show. In addition to its radio and television broadcast assets, Urban One owns iOne Digital (ionedigital.com), our wholly owned digital platform serving the African American community through social content, news, information, and entertainment websites, including its Cassius, Bossip, HipHopWired and MadameNoire digital platforms and brands. Through our national multi-media operations, we provide advertisers with a unique and powerful delivery mechanism to the African American and urban audiences.

Notes:

1

“Broadcast and digital operating income”: The radio broadcasting industry commonly refers to “station operating income” which consists of net loss before depreciation and amortization, income taxes, interest expense, interest and investment income, non-controlling interests in income of subsidiaries, other income, net, loss from unconsolidated joint venture, corporate selling, general and administrative expenses, stock-based compensation, impairment of goodwill and intangible assets, and (gain) loss on retirement of debt. However, given the diverse nature of our business, station operating income is not truly reflective of our multi-media operation and, therefore, we use the term “broadcast and digital operating income.” Broadcast and digital operating income is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP. Nevertheless, broadcast and digital operating income is a significant measure used by our management to evaluate the operating performance of our core operating segments. Broadcast and digital operating income provides helpful information about our results of operations, apart from expenses associated with our fixed assets and goodwill and intangible assets, income taxes, investments, impairment charges, debt financings and retirements, corporate overhead and stock-based compensation. Our measure of broadcast and digital operating income is similar to industry use of station operating income; however, it reflects our more diverse business and therefore is not completely analogous to “station operating income” or other similarly titled measures as used by other companies. Broadcast and digital operating income does not represent operating income or loss, or cash flow from operating activities, as those terms are defined under GAAP, and should not be considered as an alternative to those measurements as an indicator of our performance.

2

“Adjusted EBITDA”: Adjusted EBITDA consists of net (loss) income plus (1) depreciation and amortization, income taxes, interest expense, net income attributable to non-controlling interests, impairment of goodwill, intangible assets and long lived assets, stock-based compensation, gain on sale of business, (gain) loss on retirement of debt, corporate costs, non-recurring litigation settlement costs, non-recurring debt refinancing costs, severance-related costs, investment income, loss from ceased non-core business initiatives less (2) other income, net and interest and investment income. Net (loss) income before interest income, interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization is commonly referred to in our business as “EBITDA.” Adjusted EBITDA and EBITDA are not measures of financial performance under GAAP. We believe Adjusted EBITDA is often a useful measure of a company’s operating performance and is a significant measure used by our management to evaluate the operating performance of our business. Accordingly, based on the previous description of Adjusted EBITDA, we believe that it provides useful information about the operating performance of our business, apart from the expenses associated with our fixed assets and goodwill and intangible assets, or capital structure. Adjusted EBITDA is frequently used as one of the measures for comparing businesses in the broadcasting industry, although our measure of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies, including, but not limited to the fact that our definition includes the results of all four of our operating segments (Radio Broadcasting, Reach Media, Digital, and Cable Television). Business activities unrelated to these four segments are included in an “all other” category which the Company refers to as “All other – corporate/eliminations.” Adjusted EBITDA and EBITDA do not purport to represent operating income or cash flow from operating activities, as those terms are defined under GAAP, and should not be considered as alternatives to those measurements as an indicator of our performance.

Our commercial business is benefitting from the early stages of the off-lease inflection, and we grew US dealer volumes by over 30%, significantly outperforming the industry. I am pleased to raise OPENLANE’s 2026 consolidated Adjusted EBITDA guidance and confident in our ability to continue accelerating this positive momentum.”

“OPENLANE remains well positioned in the market, and we are executing a strategy that is delivering results across the company,” said Brad Herring, EVP and CFO of OPENLANE. “AFC continued to fuel the marketplace and contributed $46 million in Adjusted EBITDA. Our technology teams are releasing innovative features and new revenue-generating products and services. And as our 2025 go-to-market investments ramp towards full capacity, we are leaning into additional investments in 2026 based on that success.”

2026 Guidance

The company is updating its annual guidance to the following:

Previous Guidance

(May 5, 2026)

Revised Guidance

(August 4, 2026)

Net income (in millions)

$147 – $164

$163 – $176

Adjusted EBITDA (in millions)

$365 – $385

$385 – $400

Net income per share – diluted *

$1.09 – $1.23

$1.23 – $1.33

Operating Adjusted EPS

$1.28 – $1.42

$1.40 – $1.50

* The company uses the two-class method of calculating net income per diluted share. Under the two-class method, net income is adjusted for dividends and undistributed earnings (losses) to the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock (based on the weighted average number of participating securities outstanding during the period). The weighted average diluted shares used in the net income per diluted share calculation reflect the additional common shares resulting from the conversion of the remaining preferred shares into shares of common stock, weighted from the dates of conversion. Previous guidance assumed conversion in June 2026; revised guidance reflects the actual conversion in May 2026.

Earnings guidance does not contemplate future items such as business development activities, strategic developments (such as restructurings, spin-offs or dispositions of assets or investments), contingent purchase price adjustments, significant expenses related to litigation, tax adjustments, adverse changes in the value of foreign currencies relative to the U.S. dollar, changes in applicable laws and regulations (including significant accounting, tax and trade matters) and intangible impairments. The timing and amounts of these items are highly variable, difficult to predict, and of a potential size that could have a substantial impact on the company’s reported results for any given period. See reconciliations of the company’s guidance included below.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Free Cash Flow, Adjusted Free Cash Flow, Operating adjusted income and Operating adjusted income per diluted share (or “Operating Adjusted EPS”) as presented herein are supplemental measures of our performance and liquidity that are not required by, or presented in accordance with, generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”). The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. Management believes that these measures provide investors additional meaningful methods to evaluate certain aspects of OPENLANE’s results period over period and for the other reasons set forth below.

EBITDA is defined as net income (loss), plus interest expense net of interest income, income tax provision (benefit), depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is EBITDA adjusted for the items of income and expense and expected incremental revenue and cost savings as described in our senior secured credit agreement covenant calculations. Management believes that the inclusion of supplementary adjustments to EBITDA applied in presenting Adjusted EBITDA is appropriate to provide additional information to investors about one of the principal measures of performance used by our creditors. In addition, management uses EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate our performance.

Free Cash Flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities, less purchases of property, equipment and computer software. Adjusted Free Cash Flow is Free Cash Flow adjusted for the cash portion of EBITDA addbacks to calculate Adjusted EBITDA, the net change in finance receivables held for investment and the net change in obligations collateralized by finance receivables. Management uses Adjusted Free Cash Flow to measure the funds generated in a given period that are available for capital allocation.

Operating adjusted income is defined as net income (loss) adjusted for acquired amortization expense, gains/losses on sale of property or businesses, impairments to goodwill or other intangible assets and certain other non-recurring items. Amortization expense associated with acquired intangible assets is not representative of ongoing capital expenditures but has a continuing effect on our reported results. Management believes Operating adjusted income provides comparability to other companies that may not have incurred these types of non-cash expenses or that report a similar measure. Operating Adjusted EPS represents Operating adjusted income divided by weighted average diluted shares, with preferred shares treated as converted for the entire period.

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Free Cash Flow, Adjusted Free Cash Flow, Operating adjusted income and Operating Adjusted EPS have limitations as analytical tools, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the results as reported under GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
