Comscore, Inc. reported a first-quarter 2026 net loss of $6.2 million, compared with a net loss of $4.0 million a year earlier, as operating expenses rose slightly on essentially flat revenue.
Revenue was $85.3 million versus $85.7 million in 2025, with Content & Ad Measurement contributing $73.1 million and Research & Insight Solutions $12.2 million. Within Content & Ad Measurement, Syndicated Audience revenue declined while Cross-Platform products grew, driven by higher usage of Proximic, CCR and CCM offerings.
Operating margin remained negative, with cost of revenues increasing on higher cloud and royalty costs, partly offset by lower data fees after a renegotiated Charter data license. Comscore generated $12.5 million of operating cash flow, invested $5.9 million mainly in internal-use software, and used $8.1 million for financing, including a voluntary $5.0 million term-loan prepayment. Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash totaled $25.1 million as of March 31, 2026, and the company remained in compliance with its credit covenants.
Comscore, Inc. reported first quarter 2026 revenue of $85.3 million, essentially flat and down 0.5% from Q1 2025, as growth in newer offerings offset softness in legacy products. Cross-platform solutions revenue grew about 30%, helped by Proximic, CCR and broader adoption of cross-platform content measurement.
The company posted a net loss of $6.2 million, deeper than the $4.0 million loss a year earlier, with core operating expenses rising 2.4% to $89.2 million. Adjusted EBITDA was $5.0 million, below $7.4 million in Q1 2025, reflecting margin pressure during the business mix transition.
Comscore ended March 31, 2026 with $25.1 million in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash and outstanding senior secured term loan principal of $39.0 million after a voluntary $5.0 million prepayment. Management plans an investor call on or before May 29 to discuss strategic actions and the 2026 outlook.

The filing notes the reporting persons ceased to be beneficial owners of more than five percent of comScore’s stock on December 29, 2025, solely because the total number of comScore shares outstanding increased. Cavendish and WPP are deemed to share voting and dispositive power over these shares, and Cavendish formally disclaims beneficial ownership.
