Vivid Seats Q2 revenue falls to $129.9 million; raises low end of 2026 GOV outlook
Vivid Seats reported second-quarter 2026 revenue of $129.9 million, down from $143.6 million a year earlier, and a net loss of $14.3 million, compared with a $263.3 million net loss in the prior-year quarter that included $320.4 million of impairment charges. The company raised the low end of its 2026 Marketplace GOV and adjusted EBITDA ranges, which matters to shareholders because headline revenue and adjusted EBITDA both declined year over year.
