Innovate Corp. posted third‑quarter 2026 revenue of $495.5 million, a 42.8% year‑over‑year increase, and GAAP earnings per share of $1.10. Net income rose to $15.8 million, driven by the $413 million cash proceeds from the sale of its DBM Global unit, which lowered total indebtedness to $238.3 million. The company retained a 25% stake in its broadcasting business and reported cash of $4.9 million at quarter‑end.

The company said the debt reduction enhances financial flexibility and leverage, while cash remains limited at $4.9 million. Investors will see a stronger balance sheet but still low liquidity.
