BEVERLY, Mass., Aug. 07, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ATN International, Inc. (“ATN” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: ATNI), a leading provider of digital infrastructure and communications services, today reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2025.

Remarks by Brad Martin, ATN Chief Executive Officer

“Our second quarter results were in line with our expectations and reflect the steps we’re taking to optimize our cost structure and execute on our long-term strategy. Internationally, our segment results reflect our efforts to enhance our mobile networks and service quality to support higher data usage, grow our post-paid subscriber base and gain incremental operational efficiency. In the U.S., the wind-down of subsidy programs and our transition away from legacy consumer service technologies continues to impact year-over-year revenue performance. However, we are beginning to see sequential improvements as our focus on delivering best-in-class carrier and enterprise solutions and expanding the deployment of fiber and fiber-fed fixed-wireless in markets where we have durable consumer footholds, is generating positive traction.

“Across the business, our focus on simplification, operational stability, and disciplined capital allocation is driving stronger cash generation. These improvements provide a solid foundation as we move into the second half of the year.”

Second Quarter 2025 Financial Results

Consolidated revenues were $181.3 million in the second quarter, down 1% versus $183.3 million in the year-ago quarter. This decrease primarily reflects the wind-down of subsidy programs and the exit from legacy consumer solutions partially offset by an increase in construction revenue during the quarter.

Operating income was $0.2 million in the second quarter versus $24.3 million in the year-ago quarter. The year-ago quarter benefited from a net gain of $15.9 million from the disposition of assets versus the current year quarter loss of $2.7 million. Cost containment efforts resulted in a reduction in selling, general and administrative costs, which partially offset restructuring and reorganization expenses totaling $4.9 million in the current quarter.

Net loss attributable to ATN stockholders in the second quarter of 2025 was $(7.0) million, or $(0.56) loss per share versus a net income attributable to ATN stockholders of $9.0 million, or $0.50 income per diluted share, in the year-ago quarter.

Adjusted EBITDA¹ was $45.8 million in the second quarter of 2025, down 6% from $48.7 million in the year-ago quarter.

The Company recorded financial results in three categories: (i) International Telecom; (ii) US Telecom; and (iii) Corporate and Other.

Balance Sheet and Cash Flow Highlights

Total cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash as of June 30, 2025, increased to $113.3 million and total debt was $583.4 million, versus $89.2 million of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash and $557.4 million of total debt on December 31, 2024. The Company’s Net Debt³ ratio was 2.58x on June 30, 2025.

Net cash provided by operating activities increased to $59.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared with net cash provided by operating activities of $58.4 million in the prior year period primarily the result of working capital improvements.   

Capital expenditures for the six months ending June 30, 2025 were $42.0 million net of $45.9 million of reimbursable capital expenditures compared to $61.8 million net of $46.2 million of reimbursable capital expenditures in the prior year period.

Quarterly Dividends and Stock Repurchases

Quarterly dividends increased 15% to $0.275 per share and were paid on July 7, 2025, on all common shares outstanding to stockholders of record as of June 30, 2025.

Share repurchases, in the quarter ended June 30, 2025, the Company did not repurchase any shares.

2025 Business Outlook

“As we enter the second half of the year, we remain focused on disciplined execution and delivering on our strategic priorities,” said Martin. “While revenue reflects the impact of the discontinued subsidy programs and the exit of services based on legacy technologies in our U.S. business, we’re seeing improved operational efficiency across the organization. Our teams are managing costs effectively, capital spending remains aligned with our expectations, and we believe we are well-positioned to meet our full-year objectives. With continued focus, we are reaffirming our 2025 guidance and remain confident in our ability to generate long-term value.”

ATN reaffirmed its expectations for the Full Year 2025:

• Revenue, excluding construction revenue, is expected to be in line with 2024’s result of $725 million
• Adjusted EBITDA¹ is expected to be essentially flat with 2024’s result of $184 million
• Capital expenditures are expected to be in the range of $90 to $100 million (net of reimbursements) compared with the full year 2024 total of $110.4 million
• Net Debt Ratio³ is expected to remain flat, with a slight potential improvement exiting 2025 compared with 2024’s result of 2.54x

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Definition of Terms

In addition to financial measures prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), this press release also contains non-GAAP financial measures. Specifically, the Company has included EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Net Debt, and Net Debt Ratio in this release and the tables included herein.

EBITDA is defined as Operating income (loss) before depreciation and amortization expense.

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as Operating income (loss) before depreciation and amortization expense, transaction-related charges, restructuring and reorganization expenses, one-time impairment or special charges, the gain (loss) on disposition of assets and transfers, and non-cash stock-based compensation.

Net Debt is defined as total debt less cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash.

Net Debt Ratio is defined as Net Debt divided by the trailing four quarters ended total Adjusted EBITDA at the measurement date.

The Company believes that the inclusion of these non-GAAP financial measures helps investors gain a meaningful understanding of the Company's core operating results and enhances the usefulness of comparing such performance with prior periods. Management uses these non-GAAP measures, in addition to GAAP financial measures, as the basis for measuring the Company’s core operating performance and comparing such performance to that of prior periods. The non-GAAP financial measures included in this press release are not meant to be considered superior to or a substitute for results of operations prepared in accordance with GAAP. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are set forth in the text of, and the accompanying tables to, this press release. While non-GAAP financial measures are an important tool for financial and operational decision-making and for evaluating the Company’s own operating results over different periods of time, the Company urges investors to review the reconciliation of these financial measures to the comparable GAAP financial measures included below, and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate its business.
