Reservoir Media (NASDAQ:RSVR – Get Free Report) released its earnings results on Wednesday. The company reported $0.07 EPS for the quarter, beating the consensus estimate of $0.04 by $0.03, FiscalAI reports. Reservoir Media had a net margin of 4.87% and a return on equity of 2.33%. The business had revenue of $49.91 million during the quarter, compared to analyst estimates of $48.70 million.

Here are the key takeaways from Reservoir Media’s conference call:

  • Revenue and profitability grew: Q2 revenue increased 10% year over year, including 4% organic growth, while Adjusted EBITDA rose 14% to $22.1 million. Net income more than doubled to approximately $4.6 million.
  • Management raised and narrowed its full-year outlook: Reservoir now expects revenue of $188 million–$192 million and Adjusted EBITDA of $77 million–$80 million, citing first-half performance and continued cost discipline.
  • Both segments expanded, with acquisitions contributing: Music Publishing revenue grew 8% and Recorded Music revenue grew 18%; digital growth and catalog acquisitions supported both businesses. Management said Recorded Music’s improved margin partly reflects acquired rights with low expenses.
  • Cash flow declined and debt remains substantial: Operating cash flow for the first half fell $3.7 million year over year, which the company attributed mainly to working-capital timing. Net debt was $433.8 million, up from $429.8 million at fiscal year-end, with interest expense also higher due partly to acquisition financing.
