Revenues increased 4.1% to $529,000 in the second quarter 2025 from $508,000 in the second quarter 2024 due to increased service revenues from broadband, end-user terminals and voice over internet protocol.
EBITDA from operations1 decreased 21.3% to $118,000 in the second quarter 2025 compared to $150,000 in the second quarter 2024 due to less capitalized labor for plant under construction and switch replacements.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2025
Revenues increased 7.9% to $1,053,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2025 from $976,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2024 due to new services, one-time equipment revenues and system upgrades.
EBITDA from operations1 decreased 16.8% to $242,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2025 from $291,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2024 due to the increase in revenues discussed above partially offset by less capitalized labor for plant under construction and switch replacements.
