AI Summary

5.6
Neutral

IHRT should be viewed as a leveraged audio platform turnaround—not a legacy radio play—where strong podcast/digital revenue growth and better distribution are improving the mix, but the heavy debt load means the stock only works if management converts that momentum into sustained free cash flow without an execution miss.
