Second quarter pace slipped by a tenth of a point, driven by June losing half a point week over week, though June overall is still the strongest month by percent contribution since Q2 2020, with sports-related strength from the World Cup and NBA Finals. Third quarter declined week over week by 8 tenths of a point, with July down 1.2 points, August down 0.8, and September down six tenths, alongside broader category declines attributed partly to late bookings after Juneteenth. Despite the weekly drop, the speaker says the minus 9.6% third quarter estimate remains reachable, with stations expected to have about 65% booked and 76 to 77% of final results by July 1, pending potential catch-up after the July 4 holiday.
