MARCHEX INC (MCHX) filed an SEC Form 8-K — Results of Operations and Financial Condition. EX-99.1 2 mchx-ex99_1.htm EX-99.1 EX-99.1 Exhibit 99.1 Marchex Announces Second Quarter 2026 Financial Results Reports Improved Profitability and Early Momentum Following Archenia Acquisition SEATTLE, WA – August 12, 2026 – Marchex, Inc.

How this was made
The 30-second read
Why it matters
The filing provides a near-term decision point via reported Q2 performance and explicit pro forma guidance for the quarter ending Sept. 30, 2026, tied to early adoption of combined Marchex and Archenia solutions.
Market read
Traders can reassess MCHX’s post-deal trajectory using the disclosed Q2 metrics and the stated pro forma Q3 2026 revenue and adjusted EBITDA ranges.
What to watch
Customer adoption is described as early and concentrated in the top 100 customers, so investors may discount scalability until broader customer conversion and retention metrics are evidenced.
Background
Marchex completed its previously announced acquisition of Archenia on July 1, 2026, and this 8-K reports Q2 results plus pro forma combined metrics and outlook.
Ticker impact
Marchex reports Q2 2026 revenue of $11.0M and a net loss of $0.4M, plus pro forma guidance for Q3 2026 after the July 1 Archenia close.
Likely two-way reaction depending on how investors weigh the revenue decline versus the improved adjusted EBITDA and the credibility of the post-acquisition pro forma trajectory.
The filing is a primary disclosure (8-K with Exhibit 99.1) and includes both reported Q2 metrics and forward-looking pro forma ranges for the quarter ending Sept. 30, 2026. However, the revenue is down year over year and the adjusted EBITDA includes acquisition-related costs, which can temper enthusiasm.
Market effects
Signals continued consolidation and monetization of AI-driven conversation analytics and customer acquisition tooling, potentially supporting sentiment for small-cap adtech/AI services peers.
No clear regional spillover beyond US small-cap tech/marketing services sentiment.
Limited direct global impact; primarily affects US-listed AI customer acquisition analytics market expectations.
Counterpoint
The revenue decline and net loss persist, and the adjusted EBITDA improvement is partly driven by acquisition and reorganization costs, so the pro forma trajectory may not translate into durable operating leverage.
