The company owns America’s largest local television broadcasting group and has significant stakes in national television properties and digital assets.
In its second quarter of 2025 earnings report, Nexstar Media Group reported a net revenue of $1.23 billion, a slight decline from the previous year. Despite the decrease in political advertising revenue, the company managed to maintain strong financial performance through strategic operational milestones and effective expense management.
Key financial highlights include a net income of $91 million and an adjusted EBITDA of $389 million. The company also reported a significant increase in net cash provided by operating activities, which rose by 40.3% to $247 million. Nexstar’s strategic refinancing of its senior secured term loans and revolving credit facilities has reduced interest rate margins and expanded revolver capacity, enhancing its financial flexibility.
Nexstar’s strategic initiatives have shown promising results, with The CW network achieving five consecutive quarters of audience growth and NewsNation being recognized as the fastest-growing cable network. The company continues to invest in sports programming and has finalized agreements to expand its CW affiliations.
Looking ahead, Nexstar Media Group remains optimistic about future opportunities, including regulatory reforms and the 2026 mid-term election political advertising. The company is focused on completing upcoming distribution renewals and capitalizing on its strategic growth initiatives.
