"We are pleased to announce another strong quarter that shows the power and consistency of our business, even in a non-election year," Newsmax CEO Christopher Ruddy said.
What's Next: The company reiterated previous guidance of $180 million to $190 million for the full fiscal year.
"Our strong balance sheet and access to the public markets give us the flexibility to invest strategically, expand our distribution and continue delivering compelling content that resonates with viewers," Ruddy said. "We remain focused on sustainable, long-term growth and on delivering consistent value for our shareholders."
In October, the company implemented its plan to buy up to $5 million in Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC) and Trump Coin (CRYPTO: TRUMP). The move will make the company the first NYSE company to buy Trump Coin.
