Both metrics were ahead of analysts' average forecasts. In an interview published by Philadelphia Business Journal on Monday, Field argued that the stock might still be down from a price above $10 in the spring of 2018 because of secular pressure on media stocks overall. In addition, Field said, "a down second quarter" may be weighing on sentiment for the stock. But the CEO believes there's a "disconnect" between the Street's view and the company's actual potential. Now what Field said he is excited about the company's recent launch of its RADIO.COM app -- an app that adds DVR-like capabilities to radio.
