Tucows (NASDAQ:TCX) Issues Earnings Results

Tucows (NASDAQ:TCX) (TSE:TC) announced its quarterly earnings results on Thursday. The information services provider reported ($1.51) earnings per share for the quarter, Zacks reports.

Here are the key takeaways from Tucows’ conference call:

• Radix Registry migration completed; Domains delivered higher gross profit and adjusted EBITDA year‑over‑year despite a modest revenue dip, supported by a favorable high‑margin product mix and stronger retail performance.
• Ting revenue grew 19% with accelerating subscriber adds, gross profit turned meaningfully positive and adjusted EBITDA loss narrowed to -$0.4M, helped by construction revenue from a senior‑living contract.
• Wavelo showed slight revenue growth but lower gross profit and adjusted EBITDA as management deliberately increased sales and marketing spend to strengthen pipeline and support future bookings.
• Corporate segment headwinds from legacy mobile obligations and professional fees pressured results — GAAP net loss widened to $18.1M, corporate gross profit and adjusted EBITDA were negative, and EchoStar/MVNO exposure remains a risk.
• Cash flow and liquidity improved with a return to positive operating cash flow of $3.5M and covenant compliance, but sizable net debt (Ting ~ $417.8M; corporate ex‑Ting $162.2M) remains a material consideration.
