Subscription business revenue was $276.7 million, up 14%, exceeding the total-company growth rate. For the first six months of 2026, total revenue was $777.0 million, up 12%, while subscription business revenue was $546.1 million, up 15%.
Enrollment trends were mixed. Total enrolled pets, including pets from the other business segment, was 1,633,131 at June 30, 2026, a decrease of 2% over June 30, 2025. In contrast, subscription enrolled pets reached 1,124,548, an increase of 5%. The difference between subscription revenue and enrollment growth versus the total enrolled-pet trend is a central operating metric for the period.
Profitability and cash generation improved on several measures, but quarterly GAAP net income declined. Net income was $6.8 million, or $0.16 per basic and diluted share, compared with $9.4 million, or $0.22 per basic and diluted share, in the second quarter of 2025. Adjusted EBITDA increased to $19.8 million from $16.6 million. Operating cash flow increased to $21.0 million from $15.0 million, and free cash flow increased to $19.2 million from $12.0 million.
For the first six months, net income was $11.7 million compared with $7.9 million, and adjusted EBITDA was $37.1 million compared with $28.8 million. Operating cash flow was $35.6 million and free cash flow was $32.9 million, compared with $31.0 million and $26.1 million, respectively. The company held $398.5 million in cash and short-term investments, with an additional $3.5 million available under its credit facility.
Capital allocation was a prominent part of the release. The New York Department of Financial Services approved an extraordinary dividend of $44 million to Trupanion from American Pet Insurance Company, and the Board authorized repurchases of up to an aggregate of $100.0 million of common stock with no expiration date. The release provided no forward financial guidance, making enrollment, revenue growth, profitability, cash flow and repurchase execution the disclosed items to monitor next.
