For the first six months, pro forma net revenue increased 8.4%; pro forma Local Advertising net revenue rose 1.3% and pro forma Other Media and Entertainment net revenue enjoyed "a strong increase."
"We are pleased to be reporting solid second quarter results, following the successful completion of our initial public offering in JULY," TOWNSQUARE MEDIA Chairman/CEO STEVEN PRICE said. "We delivered a 7.8% increase in pro forma net revenue. Our results continue to demonstrate the strength of our diversified revenue strategy. We enjoyed solid performance in most of our Local Advertising markets together with strong performance across our live event, digital marketing service and national digital assets. These more than offset advertising revenue softness in certain markets within our Local Advertising segment."
