BALTIMORE, Aug. 05, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Sinclair, Inc. (Nasdaq: SBGI), the “Company” or “Sinclair,” today reported financial results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026.

CEO Comment:

“Sinclair delivered strong second quarter results, with meaningful year-over-year growth in revenue and Adjusted EBITDA, driven by political advertising and disciplined execution across the business. Political advertising maintained significant momentum during the quarter as we move further into the 2026 midterm election cycle. Record-setting World Cup audiences across our FOX affiliate portfolio once again demonstrated the reach of broadcast television, while also driving engagement across our digital and podcast platforms. Traditional MVPD subscriber trends also continued to show signs of modest stabilization. Based on our second quarter performance and current political trends, we are increasing our full-year Adjusted EBITDA guidance.”

Recent Developments:

Updated Full Year 2026 Guidance

• Increasing Total Company Adjusted EBITDA from a range of $700 million-$740 million to $730 million-$760 million
• Total Company and Local Media Total Revenue and Distribution Revenue guidance remain unchanged

2026 Midterm Election

• Political revenue of $59 million in the quarter is up 9% compared to the second quarter of the 2022 mid-term election cycle
• Increased Political Advertising Revenue Guidance 13% from at least $333 million to at least $375 million
• Broadcast footprint spans across 39 distinct markets across the top-10 states with the highest projected political spend around this year’s mid-term elections, including 6 Competitive Senate races, 7 competitive gubernatorial races and 33 competitive House races

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP operating performance measure that management and the Company’s Board of Directors use to evaluate the Company’s operating performance and for executive compensation purposes. The Company believes that Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors by allowing them to view the Company’s business through the eyes of management and is a measure that is frequently used by industry analysts, investors and lenders as a measure of relative operating performance.

Adjusted EBITDA is provided on a forward-looking basis under the section entitled “Outlook” above. The Company has not included a reconciliation of projected Adjusted EBITDA to net income, which is the most directly comparable GAAP measure, for the periods presented in reliance on the unreasonable efforts exception provided under Item 10(e)(1)(i)(B) of Regulation S-K. The Company’s projected Adjusted EBITDA excludes certain items that are inherently uncertain and difficult to predict including, but not limited to, income taxes. Due to the variability, complexity and limited visibility of the adjusting items that would be excluded from projected Adjusted EBITDA in future periods, management does not rely upon them for internal use or measurement of operating performance, and therefore cannot create a quantitative projected Adjusted EBITDA to net income reconciliation for the periods presented without unreasonable efforts. A quantitative reconciliation of projected Adjusted EBITDA to net income for the periods presented would imply a degree of precision and certainty as to these future items that does not exist and could be confusing to investors. From a qualitative perspective, it is anticipated that the differences between projected Adjusted EBITDA to net income for the periods presented will consist of items similar to those described in the reconciliation of historical results below. The timing and amount of any of these excluded items could significantly impact the Company’s net income for a particular period. When planning, forecasting and analyzing future periods, the Company does so primarily on a non-GAAP basis without preparing a GAAP analysis.

In addition to the reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to its most directly comparable GAAP measure, net income, the Company also discloses a reconciliation of the Adjusted EBITDA of its segments to its more directly comparable GAAP measure, segment operating income.

Non-GAAP measures are not formulated in accordance with GAAP, are not meant to replace GAAP financial measures and may differ from other companies’ uses or formulations. Further discussions and reconciliations of the Company’s non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures can be found on its website www.sbgi.net.
