    BOCA RATON, FL / ACCESS Newswire / February 27, 2026 / Newsmax Inc. (NYSE:NMAX) (“Newsmax” or the “Company”) today announced that more than four million Americans tuned in across the Company’s channels for the network’s comprehensive live coverage of President Donald Trump’s State of the Union address Tuesday night.

    The coverage marks a major ratings and digital milestone for the Company.

    Newsmax’s coverage began at 6:00pm ET with “Carl Higbie FRONTLINE” followed by “Rob Schmitt Tonight.”

    Beginning at 8:00pm ET, the Newsmax network delivered wall-to-wall special coverage anchored live from Washington, D.C., by Greta Van Susteren and Rob Finnerty, with analysis from Mark Meadows, former White House chief of staff, and commentator Mercedes Schlapp.

    The special broadcast continued through midnight, providing viewers with in-depth analysis, real-time reactions and exclusive interviews.

    The Newsmax channel alone drew 2.8 million total viewers Tuesday night, according to Nielsen, while an additional 1.3 million streaming viewers watched coverage on Newsmax2, underscoring the growing reach of the Company’s digital platforms.

    The Newsmax audience was so large on cable that its total audience exceeded the combined viewership of Fox Business, CNBC and NewsNation combined by 23%.

    Throughout the evening, Newsmax’s editorial team provided regular updates to Newsmax.com and engaged the network’s more than 23 million social media followers with breaking developments, video highlights and expert commentary.

    “The president gave an epic speech, and America tuned in, with a big chunk of his audience tuning into Newsmax,” said Newsmax CEO Chris Ruddy. “It was a big night for the president and for us.”

    In addition to airing the president’s address live, Newsmax offered continual reporting and instant analysis from top newsmakers and commentators.

    High-profile guests appearing on the network included Speaker of the House Mike Johnson, R-La., Majority Leader Steve Scalise, R-La., Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and HUD Secretary Scott Turner.

    Other major figures included Sens. Rick Scott, R-Fla., Markwayne Mullin, R-Okla., Ron Johnson, R-Wis., John Cornyn, R-Texas, Ted Cruz, R-Texas, John Barrasso, R-Wyo. and Chris Coons, D-Del.

    Additional contributors included Trish Regan, Trump presidential envoy Richard Grenell, presidential pollsters John McLaughlin and Dick Morris and House chairmen Rep. James Comer, R-Ky., and Rep. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio.

    Other members of Congress appearing included Rep. Anna Paulina Luna, R-Fla., Rep. Dan Crenshaw, R-Texas, Rep. Byron Donalds, R-Fla., Rep. Brandon Gill, R-Texas and Rep. Chip Roy, R-Texas.

    Newsmax2 also featured live coverage with anchors Ed Henry and Bianca de la Garza, providing viewers with additional perspectives and extended post-speech analysis across streaming platforms.

    “Our network coverage was first-rate and was not only on par with major networks but delivered the kind of comprehensive reporting viewers don’t see much anymore,” said Gary Kanofsky, Newsmax’s senior vice president of news.

    “From our anchors in Washington to our contributors and production teams across the country, this was a total newsroom effort,” he said.

    The strong performance reflects Newsmax’s continued growth as a trusted destination for millions of Americans seeking live news events, in-depth analysis and diverse perspectives.

    With expanded distribution across cable, satellite, OTT and streaming platforms, Newsmax continues to solidify its position as one of the nation’s leading news networks.

    Newsmax Announces Third Quarter 2025 Financial Results

    Company Reports Revenues of $45.3 million, a 4.0% Year-Over-Year Increase, Outpacing Election-Year Comparison

    Broadcast Revenues Increase to $36.6 Million, a 10.1% Increase Year-Over-Year

    Newsmax Remains the Fourth Highest-Rated Cable News Channel With Over 28 Million Quarterly Viewers

    BOCA RATON, FL / ACCESS Newswire / November 13, 2025 / Newsmax Inc. (NYSE:NMAX) (“Newsmax” or the “Company”) today announced its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2025.

    Management Commentary

    “We are pleased to announce another strong quarter that shows the power and consistency of our business, even in a non-election year when news audiences and advertising demand across the industry typically soften,” said Christopher Ruddy, Chief Executive Officer of Newsmax. “Our performance this quarter reflects the strength of our diversified revenue model, the growing reach of our cable and FAST channels and the continued engagement of audiences across all of our platforms.”

    Ruddy continued, “Since going public, we have focused on building a company positioned for sustainable, long-term growth. 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. We remain focused on sustainable, long-term growth and on delivering consistent value for our shareholders.”

    Third Quarter 2025 Business and Operational Highlights

    • Newsmax has significantly expanded its distribution reach through multiple strategic initiatives including:

      • Secured distribution agreement with a leading hospitality provider, making Newsmax available in 900+ hotels and 300,000 hotel rooms nationwide.

      • Partnered with Curb to bring Newsmax programming to the Taxi TV platform, reaching over 15,000 screens across 65 U.S. markets generating 2.3 billion annual impressions.

      • Achieved major international expansion through partnership with Trump Media & Technology Group, making Newsmax available globally on Truth+ streaming platform across multiple devices and connected TV apps.

      • Extended multi-year carriage partnership with Fubo, launching Newsmax en Español on Fubo’s Latino plan and Latino Plus add-on package.

      • Expanded international news coverage with Carl Higbie broadcasting live from Israel, providing comprehensive coverage and exclusive interviews including with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

    • Implemented strategic cryptocurrency purchase plan of up to $5 million to acquire Bitcoin and Trump Coin over the next 12 months, positioning Newsmax to be the first NYSE company to purchase Trump Coin.

    • Partnered with Veritone to modernize newsroom operations and unlock revenue potential from Newsmax’s extensive 20-year content archive through AI-powered Digital Media Hub technology.

    • Appointed David Gandler, Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer of FuboTV, to the Board of Directors, bringing extensive streaming and media industry expertise.

    Third Quarter 2025 Financial Highlights

    • Newsmax reported total quarterly revenues of $45.3 million for the three-month period ended September 30, 2025, representing a 4.0% year-over-year increase.

      • Total Broadcasting revenues grew 10.1% year-over-year to $36.6 million for the third quarter of 2025, underscoring continued growth even in a non-election year. This was driven by affiliate fee revenue growth, higher ratings and pricing for broadcasting ad revenue and an increase in Newsmax+ subscribers.

      • Advertising Revenues decreased slightly by 1.6% year-over-year to $27.6 million due to a non-election year comparison period.

      • Affiliate Revenues increased 22.3% year-over-year to $8.1 million driven by new contractual relationships as well as rate increases that went into effect in 2025.

      • Subscription Revenues of $6.9 million were flat year-over-year, driven by an increase in Newsmax+ subscribers, offset by reductions in publication subscriptions due to election cycle cyclicality.

      • Product Sales Revenues increased 1.8% year-over-year to $1.5 million.

    • Newsmax reported a quarterly Net Loss of $(4.1) million as compared to a Net Loss of $(9.8) million reported in the prior year quarter, primarily driven by higher production and programming investments, public company and stock-based compensation costs, offset by reduced legal expenses and higher broadcast revenues.

    • Quarterly Adjusted EBITDA was $(1.8) million, a decrease of $4.4 million from the amount reported in the same quarter last year, primarily due to higher production and programming expenses and increased personnel and public company costs associated with the Company’s continued expansion. (See reconciliation of net loss to adjusted EBITDA below).

    • The Company ended the quarter with $130.4 million in Cash and short-term investments. Cash and Cash Equivalents were $14.2 million and short-term investments were $116.2 million.

    Newsmax is reiterating its previously issued full-year 2025 revenue guidance of $180 million to $190 million.

    “Our third quarter results highlight the resilience and momentum of our business,” commented Darryle Burnham, Chief Financial Officer. “By expanding our global distribution footprint and modernizing our content monetization strategy, we are laying the foundation for sustainable, long-term growth. We are encouraged by the strong performance we are seeing early in the fourth quarter and remain confident in our previously disclosed full-year revenue guidance. Supported by a solid balance sheet, we continue to invest in strategic opportunities that enhance our reach, strengthen our financial profile and drive shareholder value.”

    The Company will host an earnings call at 4:30pm ET today to discuss the third quarter 2025 financial results. Participants may access the live webcast at Newsmax’s investor relations website at: Investor Relations | Newsmax Inc.

    USE AND DEFINITION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

    This press release contains a financial measure that has not been prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“U.S. GAAP”). This financial measure is Adjusted EBITDA.

    Non-GAAP financial measures are used to supplement the financial information presented on a U.S. GAAP basis and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the relevant U.S. GAAP measures and should be read in conjunction with information presented on a U.S. GAAP basis. Because not all companies use identical calculations, our presentation of Non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.

    Adjusted EBITDA[1] is defined as revenues less cost of revenues and general and administrative expenses and does not include depreciation and amortization, interest expense, net, impairment charges, unrealized gains (losses) on marketable securities, other corporate matters (consisting primarily of certain litigation expenses, and related fees, for specific legal proceedings that the Company has determined are infrequent and unusual in terms of their magnitude), other, net, and income tax expense.

    [1] The Company compensates for limitations of the adjusted EBITDA measure by prominently disclosing GAAP net income (loss), which the Company believes is the most directly comparable GAAP measure, and providing investors with a reconciliation from GAAP net income (loss) to adjusted EBITDA on page 13.

  • Newsmax Announces Crypto Plan for Asset Reserve

    Company’s Board Authorizes Strategic Purchases of up to $5 Million of Bitcoin and Trump Coin

    BOCA RATON, FL / ACCESS Newswire / October 16, 2025 / Newsmax Inc. (NYSE:NMAX) (“Newsmax” or the “Company”) today announced that the Company’s Board of Directors has authorized a strategic purchase plan of up to $5 million to purchase Bitcoin and Trump Coin over the next 12 months, subject to market conditions.

    Newsmax expects to join more than 100 public companies that hold Bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies on their balance sheets. According to BitcoinTreasuries data, public company-held coin represents over 4.7% of total Bitcoin in circulation.

    Newsmax also plans to add official Trump Coin to its strategic crypto reserve. The popular meme coin was launched earlier this year by President Trump and the circulating coin value exceeds $1.2 billion today with a total coin market value of around $6 billion, according to figures from Coinbase.

    “Bitcoin is fast becoming the gold standard of cryptocurrency, and we believe it would be an important company marker to add this asset to our company reserves,” Newsmax CEO Christopher Ruddy said.

    “We are also excited to add Trump Coin to our cryptocurrency plan, as we believe the coin’s value should track the success of the Trump presidency, which so far has been impressive,” Ruddy continued.

    After making such a purchase, Newsmax expects to be the first NYSE company to purchase Trump Coin.

    Newsmax anticipates making the first tranche of cryptocurrency purchases in the near future. Additional cryptocurrency acquisitions will be evaluated based on market conditions, operational requirements and strategic objectives. The Company maintains flexibility to adjust its digital asset strategy as market conditions evolve.

    Newsmax has established comprehensive protocols for digital asset custody and management, partnering with leading institutional cryptocurrency services providers to ensure secure storage and handling of its cryptocurrency reserves.

    This past March, President Trump announced the establishment of a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve for the United States. The fund is expected to begin with forfeited government Bitcoin and will grow with a Digital Asset Stockpile made up of other cryptocurrencies.

    Newsmax listed on the NYSE in March 2025 after a historic Private Preferred raise and Regulation A+ IPO offering that successfully raised $300 million.
