Bright Mountain Media reported second-quarter 2026 revenue of approximately $13.6 million, down 12% from $15.4 million a year earlier, as portfolio optimization and market conditions affected sales. By segment, Q2 revenue was about $6.4 million in advertising technology, $0.3 million in digital publishing, $4.9 million in consumer insights, and $2.0 million in creative and media services.
Cost controls and a gain on sale of intangible assets of about $1.1 million helped narrow the Q2 net loss to roughly $3.2 million, a 22% improvement from $4.1 million. For the first half of 2026, revenue was approximately $27.6 million, down 7%, while net loss improved 38% to $4.5 million and adjusted EBITDA rose to $2.2 million from $599,000.

Interest of about $201,000 on the Second Out Loans for the period ended March 31, 2026 was changed to payable-in-kind instead of cash.

Bright Mountain Media, Inc. reported that OTC Markets Group notified it that the Company no longer meets OTCQB continued listing standards because its common stock bid price stayed below $0.01 for more than 30 consecutive calendar days. The Company was granted a 90-day cure period, later extended to April 9, 2026, during which the bid price must close at or above $0.01 for ten consecutive trading days.
Management evaluated options such as a reverse stock split but decided not to pursue actions to regain compliance, citing costs, administrative burden, and low trading volume. As the Company has not regained compliance, management expects the common stock to begin trading on the OTCID market tier on April 10, 2026 under the same symbol, “BMTM,” if the bid price requirement is still not met.

Cost of revenue for 2025 increased to $43.4 million, but general and administrative expenses dropped to $16.4 million from $21.4 million, helping narrow the net loss to $13.5 million from $17.0 million.

The balance sheet remains highly leveraged, with total assets of $39.7 million versus total liabilities of $116.3 million and a stockholders’ deficit of $76.6 million. A large Centre Lane senior secured credit facility continues to drive substantial interest expense.
