Cost & Operational Efficiency: Margins improved as the company shifted away from lower‑margin traffic acquisition toward its higher‑margin Products businesses, culminating in a record adjusted gross margin in Q2 2026. Management also pointed to improved adjusted EBITDA in 2025 despite lower revenue, reflecting mix and cost actions.
-
Investor Backing & Capital Strength: A mid‑2026 debt exchange reduced total indebtedness and extended maturities, which the company says enhances financial flexibility. These balance‑sheet steps aim to right‑size the capital structure during the transition.
