Shenandoah Telecommunications Company Reports Second Quarter 2025 Results

EDINBURG, Va., July 31, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Shenandoah Telecommunications Company ("Shentel" or the "Company") (Nasdaq: SHEN) announced second quarter 2025 financial and operating results.

Second Quarter 2025 Highlights

  • Glo Fiber Expansion Markets1 data subscribers grew 43.1% compared to the second quarter of 2024 to approximately 76,000.
  • Glo Fiber Expansion Markets revenue grew 40.5% compared to the second quarter of 2024 to $19.8 million.
  • Total revenue grew 3.2% compared to the second quarter of 2024 to $88.6 million.
  • Net loss from continuing operations was $9.0 million compared to $12.8 million in the second quarter of 2024.
  • Adjusted EBITDA2 grew 21.9% compared to the second quarter of 2024 to $28.4 million.
  • Adjusted EBITDA margin expanded from 27% in the second quarter 2024 to 32% in the second quarter 2025.

"Our second quarter results reflect solid Glo Fiber growth and the successful realization of Horizon synergies that we expect will drive sustainable Adjusted EBITDA growth and margin expansion for Shentel," said President and CEO, Christopher E. French. "Glo Fiber revenue grew 40.5% over the same period a year ago with an incremental margin of 71%. We also realized the full impact of our projected $13.8 million of annual run-rate synergies from the Horizon Telcom acquisition in the second quarter."

Shentel's second-quarter earnings conference call will be webcast at 4:30 p.m. ET on Thursday, July 31, 2025. The webcast and related materials will be available on Shentel's Investor Relations website at https://investor.shentel.com/.

Second Quarter 2025 Results Compared with Second Quarter 2024

  • Revenue increased by $2.8 million, or 3.2%, to $88.6 million, primarily due to Residential & SMB - Glo Fiber Expansion Markets revenue growth of $5.7 million, or 40.5%, driven by a 43.1% year-over-year growth in data revenue generating units ("RGUs"). This growth was partially offset by Residential & SMB - Incumbent Broadband Markets3 revenue decline of $1.4 million, or 3.2%, and Commercial Fiber revenue decline of $1.2 million, or 6.0%. Residential & SMB - Incumbent Broadband Markets revenue decreased due to lower video revenue driven by a 14.5% decline in video RGUs. Commercial Fiber revenue decreased primarily due to $0.8 million in non-cash deferred revenue adjustment for a modified carrier contract and $0.9 million in early termination fees earned in the prior year. Excluding these variances, Commercial Fiber revenue grew 2.7% over the prior period 2024.
  • Cost of services decreased by $1.9 million, or 5.5%, due to decreases in network payroll, line and programming costs.
  • Selling, general and administrative expense decreased by $0.5 million, or 1.6%, due to decreases in professional fees and software maintenance costs, partially offset by an increase in property taxes.
  • Restructuring, integration and acquisition expense decreased by $11.1 million, or 98.2%. Restructuring, integration and acquisition expense in 2024 related primarily to costs incurred to effect the acquisition of Horizon and integration of costs during the post-acquisition period.
  • Depreciation and amortization increased by $9.5 million, or 37.2%, due to the Company's expansion of its Glo Fiber network and a $4.2 million write-off of plant under construction inventory assets which are no longer expected to be used.
  • Total broadband homes passed grew 92,847 to approximately 623,000, including 379,000 Glo Fiber Expansion Market passings and 244,000 Incumbent Broadband Markets passings.

1 Glo Fiber Expansion Markets consists of fiber to the home ("FTTH") passings in greenfield expansion markets.
2 See "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below for a reconciliation to the most comparable GAAP measure.
3 Incumbent Broadband Markets consists of Incumbent Cable Markets and Incumbent Telephone Markets with FTTH passings.

Other Information

  • Capital expenditures were $169.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared with $150.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The $18.5 million increase in capital expenditures was primarily driven by expansion of the networks in Glo Fiber Expansion Markets and government-subsidized markets.
  • The Company received $17.3 million and $7.7 million in government grant cash reimbursements during the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
  • As of June 30, 2025, the Company's total available liquidity was $266.7 million, consisting of (i) cash and cash equivalents totaling $29.1 million; (ii) $143.0 million of availability under the Company's revolving credit facility; and (iii) an aggregate of $94.6 million remaining reimbursements available under government grants, which reimbursements are subject to fulfilling the terms of the underlying agreements. During the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company borrowed a total of $100.0 million under its term loans and had total indebtedness of $513.1 million as of June 30, 2025.
  • The Company executed an Asset Purchase Agreement in April 2025 to acquire fiber-to-the-home assets and operations for $5 million, passing more than 1,500 homes and businesses with approximately 700 customers in Virginia. The Company completed the acquisition on July 9, 2025.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin

The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as (loss) income from continuing operations calculated in accordance with GAAP, adjusted for the impact of depreciation and amortization, impairment expense, other income (expense), net, interest income, interest expense, income tax expense (benefit), stock compensation expense, transaction costs related to acquisition and disposition events (including professional advisory fees, integration costs, and related compensatory matters), restructuring expense, tax on equity award vesting and exercise events, and other non-comparable items. A reconciliation of (loss) income from continuing operations, which is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, to Adjusted EBITDA is provided below herein.

Adjusted EBITDA margin is the Company's calculation of Adjusted EBITDA, divided by revenue calculated in accordance with GAAP.

The Company uses Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin as supplemental measures of performance to evaluate operating effectiveness and assess its ability to increase revenues while controlling expense growth and the scalability of the Company's business growth strategy. Adjusted EBITDA is also a significant performance measure used by the Company in its incentive compensation programs. The Company believes that the exclusion of the expense and income items eliminated in calculating Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin provides management and investors a useful measure for period-to-period comparisons of the Company's core operating results by excluding items that are not comparable across reporting periods or that do not otherwise relate to the Company's ongoing operations. Accordingly, the Company believes that Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating the Company's operating results. However, use of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin as analytical tools has limitations, and investors and others should not consider them in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of our financial results as reported under GAAP. In addition, other companies may calculate Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin or similarly titled measures differently, which may reduce their usefulness as comparative measures.

Zeitenwende! 3 Uranaktien vor der Neubewertung
Ende Mai leitete US-Präsident Donald Trump mit der Unterzeichnung mehrerer Dekrete eine weitreichende Wende in der amerikanischen Energiepolitik ein. Im Fokus: der beschleunigte Ausbau der Kernenergie.

Mit einem umfassenden Maßnahmenpaket sollen Genehmigungsprozesse reformiert, kleinere Reaktoren gefördert und der Anteil von Atomstrom in den USA massiv gesteigert werden. Auslöser ist der explodierende Energiebedarf durch KI-Rechenzentren, der eine stabile, CO₂-arme Grundlastversorgung zwingend notwendig macht.

In unserem kostenlosen Spezialreport erfahren Sie, welche 3 Unternehmen jetzt im Zentrum dieser energiepolitischen Neuausrichtung stehen, und wer vom kommenden Boom der Nuklearindustrie besonders profitieren könnte.
