Sinclair Broadcast reports Q2 EPS ($1.38), consensus (60c)

Reports Q3 revenue $768M, consensus $767.08M. “Sinclair is continuing to see a solid start to 2023, meeting or beating guidance on all key financial metrics,” said Chris Ripley, Sinclair’s President & Chief Executive Officer. “As we continue our evolution from a traditional broadcast company to a diversified content and data distributor, we have finalized the process of reorganizing our company structure to increase transactional flexibility and transparency around the value of assets being held in each business unit, Sinclair Broadcast Group and its subsidiaries (‘SBG’) and Sinclair Ventures and its subsidiaries (‘Ventures’). SBG holds the pure-play local media assets, while Ventures holds the company’s non-local media assets. Our end goal is to create an even more effective company, designed to use the breadth of our assets to identify and accelerate growth.”
