BEASLEY BROADCAST GROUP has released operating results for the three-month period ended MARCH 31st.
The company noted, Net revenue during the three months ended MARCH 31, 2021 reflects a year-over-year decrease in commercial advertising revenue and a lack of non-traditional revenue ( NTR ) and event revenue primarily related to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, in addition to lower cyclical political advertising revenue, partially offset by a year-over-year increase in digital revenue.
BEASLEY reported an operating loss of $2.5 million in the first quarter of this year, compared to an operating loss of $7.1 million in the first quarter of 2020, which included a $6.8 million non-cash impairment charge in the first quarter of 2020 resulting from the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition, the first quarter of 2021 had lower corporate and operating expenses, partially offset by higher depreciation and amortization expense, and $1.1 million in other operating expenses.
Naples-based radio operator Beasley Broadcast Group reported wider losses for the first quarter.
The company lost $10.6 million in the quarter, or 36 cents a share. That compared to losses of $8.8 million, or 32 cents a share, a year ago.
Company executives attributed the larger losses to several factors, including lower revenues, due to the lingering impacts from the coronavirus pandemic, which continues to stifle business in some parts of the country.
Revenues fell to $48.2 million in the quarter, down nearly 16.5% from $57.7 million last year.
The company brought in less revenue from commercial and political advertising, as well as from its other usual sources, including events.
