Sirius XM (SIRI) Q2 Revenue Rises 2%
Sirius XM (NASDAQ:SIRI), the satellite radio and audio entertainment provider best known for its subscription-based channels and Pandora streaming platform, released its results for the second quarter of 2025 on July 31, 2025. The headline news: GAAP earnings per share came in at $0.57, missing consensus by $0.20. This shortfall was driven by a sharp drop in net income and rising legal and restructuring expenses. The quarter showed strong free cash flow and continued innovation in content, but overall profitability remained under pressure. Management described the period as a step forward operationally, reaffirming its full-year forecasts despite ongoing challenges in subscriber trends and segment margins.
