Sinclair Inc (NASDAQ:SBGI) reported second-quarter 2025 financial results that fell short of analyst expectations, triggering a sharp negative reaction in after-hours trading. The stock dropped more than 6% following the earnings release, reflecting investor disappointment with both revenue and earnings performance.
The immediate after-hours decline suggests investors were anticipating stronger results, particularly given the company’s recent strategic moves, including acquisitions and debt repurchases. The stock had been relatively stable in the weeks leading up to earnings, with minimal movement over the past month, but the post-earnings drop indicates heightened concerns over revenue trends and profitability.
Despite the financial miss, Sinclair highlighted several operational positives:
However, broader financial metrics showed strain:
Sinclair did not provide full-year guidance in the press release, but its Q3 revenue projection of $764 million is below consensus estimates. Analysts had expected full-year 2025 revenue of $3.26 billion, but the company’s performance so far suggests it may struggle to meet that target.

While Sinclair continues to execute on strategic initiatives, including digital expansion and debt management, the revenue decline and weak forward guidance have weighed on investor sentiment. The market’s reaction underscores concerns about the company’s ability to stabilize its core advertising business while navigating a challenging macroeconomic environment.
