$SPOKPress releaseOct 28, 2026, 4:05 PM ETRead the release

Spok Holdings reported Q3 2026 net income of $9.7 million, up 203% year-over-year, though the quarter included a gain on the sale of narrowband spectrum licenses that added more than $7.5 million to cash. Adjusted EBITDA rose 29.6% to $8.6 million, with license revenue up nearly 30% and managed services revenue up over 30% year-over-year — but total revenue declined 2.6% to $33.0 million as wireless paging revenue continued to erode. Forward indicators weakened: software bookings fell 28.3% to $3.2 million and backlog declined 14.6% to $52.0 million, even as the company reiterated full-year guidance of $132.5M-$139.5M revenue and $28M-$32M adjusted EBITDA.
