For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, total revenue was $6.511 billion, a 2% decrease from $6.665 billion in the previous year. Sirius XM's subscriber base experienced a decline, with self-pay subscribers decreasing by 1% and paid promotional subscribers by 23%. Pandora and Off-platform's monthly active users decreased by 6% to approximately 43.7 million, and self-pay subscribers dropped by 5% to approximately 5.9 million. The company declared a quarterly dividend of $0.27 per share, payable on November 21, 2024, to stockholders of record as of November 5, 2024. Looking ahead, Sirius XM anticipates challenges in subscriber revenue due to a decline in average subscribers and the average price of subscriptions. However, the company expects an increase in Sirius XM advertising revenue and a flat performance in equipment revenue. Pandora and Off-platform's subscriber revenues are expected to remain relatively stable, while advertising revenue is projected to increase due to growth in podcast and programmatic revenue.
