Revenue for the three months from April to June was at $89.4m compared with $85.8m in the second quarter of 2024.

However, there was a net loss of $9.5m compared with $1.7m in the same period last year, which Comscore put down to foreign currency fluctuations, income taxes and interest on its senior debt.

The results led to an adjusted EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) of $8.9m, up 25% from $7.2m in the second quarter of 2024.

Content and advertising measurement revenue increased 6.3% compared to the prior year, which Comscore said was due to higher renewals and new business in local television and an increase in cross-platform revenue.

Syndicated audience solutions also saw a rise as Comscore closed and delivered on a key contract with a large enterprise media client that resulted in revenue being recognised earlier in the year than anticipated.

These increases were offset by lower revenue from national TV and syndicated digital products, while research and insight solutions revenue declined 7.4% from Q2 2024, primarily due to lower deliveries of certain custom digital products.

Core operating expenses were $90.4m, an increase of 4.6% from $86.5m in the second quarter of 2024, primarily due to higher employee compensation and partially offset by lower data costs.

Jon Carpenter, chief executive at Comscore, said: “As we look ahead, we remain bullish on our cross-platform growth trajectory and are maintaining our previous full-year guidance.”
