Analysts polled by Thomson Reuters expected the company to report a loss of $0.06 per share and revenues of $255.77 million for the quarter. Analysts' estimates typically exclude special items.

The company said it did not provide a specific third quarter outlook, as a result of continuing economic uncertainty created by the COVID-19 pandemic. However, if revenue trends remain in their current range, then the company would anticipate sustained Adjusted EBITDA growth in the third quarter.
