About Gray Media

Gray helps people stay informed by broadcasting local news and entertainment through television stations. Its channels provide weather updates, sports, and popular network shows directly to homes and mobile devices. The company serves local communities while helping advertisers reach specific regional audiences.

What Gray Brings to Screens

  • Local Television Stations: Broadcasts primary channels affiliated with CBS, NBC, FOX, and ABC across 114 markets; CBS-affiliated channels accounted for 37% of total revenue in 2025.
  • Telemundo Affiliates: Operates the largest group of Telemundo stations with 47 markets serving over 1.6 million Hispanic households.
  • Digital Marketing: Offers national and local clients digital strategies through Gray Digital Media, a full-service agency.
  • Video Production: Creates content through Raycom Sports, Tupelo Media Group, and PowerNation Studios.
  • Production Facilities: Provides studio space and services at Assembly Atlanta and Third Rail Studios.

Recent Moves and Market Shifts

  • Changed corporate name to Gray Media, Inc. on January 1, 2025, to reflect a broader multimedia focus.
  • Transitioned its Atlanta station, WANF, to operate as an independent television station effective August 16, 2025.
  • Signed agreements to acquire additional television stations with completion anticipated later in 2026.
  • Invested in Assembly Atlanta and Third Rail Studios to expand production capabilities beyond traditional broadcasting.

Winning the Local News Game

Gray operates the top-rated television station in 77 of its 113 measured markets. This local leadership provides negotiating leverage for network affiliations and retransmission fees, which are payments from cable and satellite providers to carry local signals.

The Latest Financial Scorecard

  • Total revenue reached $3.1 billion for the full year 2025, down from $3.6 billion in 2024.
  • Revenue was $792 million in Q4 2025, a 24.2% decrease from $1 billion in Q4 2024.
  • Net income fell to -$10 million in Q4 2025, worsening from $169 million in Q4 2024.
  • Free cash flow turned negative at -$51 million in Q4 2025, worsening from $328 million in Q4 2024.
  • Net debt principal payments totaled $520 million in 2024 through open-market purchases and strategic refinancing.

The Final Word

Gray has evolved from a local publisher into the largest owner of top-rated US television stations. Its expansion into digital services and studio production helps manage the cyclical nature of broadcast advertising.
