GAAP operating income improved to $1.5 million from a loss of $25.4 million, but Adjusted EBITDA fell to $92.6 million from $104.6 million, as higher non‑cash trade and barter expenses and digital content costs weighed on margins.

Free Cash Flow was negative at ($114.5 million), and cash used for operating activities increased to $92.5 million, reflecting interest payment timing and receivables. iHeartMedia ended March 31, 2026 with $135.1 million in cash, total debt of $5.04 billion and Net Debt of $4.67 billion.

For 2025, revenue was $3.86 billion, essentially flat year over year, while the GAAP operating loss narrowed sharply to $21 million from $763 million, mainly because 2024 included large impairment charges. Full-year Adjusted EBITDA slipped to $686 million and free cash flow was $11 million. The Digital Audio Group grew revenue about 14%, led by podcast growth of roughly 26%, while the Multiplatform Group and Audio & Media Services declined, largely due to lower political advertising.
