On August 10, Red Violet Inc. (NASDAQ:RDVT) reported second-quarter 2026 results for the period ended June 30 that showed the company converting growth into profit at an accelerating clip. Revenue rose 23% to $26.7 million, and net income nearly doubled to $5 million. For a company built on selling identity intelligence to businesses, watching net margin move from 12% to 19% says that growth is not costing more to produce.
Gross profit climbed 29% to $20.2 million, pushing gross margin to 76% from 72%, while adjusted EBITDA jumped 48% to $11.2 million as its margin widened to 42% from 35%. Adjusted net income rose 58% to $7.2 million. Cash generation told the same story: operating cash flow increased 42% to a record $10.6 million for the quarter. None of that came from adding customers who barely move the needle. Red Violet signed on 447 new IDI customers in the quarter, a company record, ending with 10,869 customers on the platform.
FOREWARN, its product built for real estate agents, picked up 25,493 new users to reach 443,173, and 660 REALTOR ****** ociations across the country are now under contract to use it. The company also closed an underwritten public offering in August that sold 1,916,667 shares, including 250,000 shares from the underwriters' full exercise of their option, generating net proceeds of about $109.0 million. Between the funds already on hand and this new raise, Red Violet says it holds over $160 million in cash and carries no debt, money earmarked for working capital and possible acquisitions.
CEO Derek Dubner called it what he described as "the strongest pipeline of strategic initiatives" in the company's history. The company also repurchased 74,500 shares by June 30, paying $41.87 per share on average, and had $15.5 million left on its buyback authorization.
The August offering that padded Red Violet's cash balance also added 1,916,667 new shares to the count, arriving in the same year that per-share profit is climbing fastest. Diluted earnings came in a penny below basic at $0.34, and adjusted diluted earnings landed at $0.50 versus $0.51 on a basic basis, a gap new shares will only widen going forward. There is also a timing tension worth sitting with: Red Violet spent part of the quarter buying back its own stock at an average of $41.87 a share, then turned around weeks later and sold new shares to the public.

Another round of layoffs has brought dramatic cuts to a city's local newspaper.
On Monday, Hornets beat reporter Rod Boone of the Charlotte Observer shared on social media that the paper eliminated his position, along with seven colleagues, in the latest round of McClatchy cuts.
Boone said that the news came "less than 48 hours after being told corporate had given the green light to bring back my podcast they whacked two years earlier." He also noted that the cuts meant that the paper will no longer have a writer dedicated to covering the Hornets, a first since the team's inception in 1987.
The cuts are just the latest in a series of layoffs made at papers controlled by McClatchy. The Miami Herald also laid off staffers this week, including sportswriter Greg Cote, who went back five decades with the paper. The Sacramento Bee was also caught in the wreckage, losing its sports department entirely.
Media layoffs have only become more common in recent years, and local newspapers are especially suffering. They have also often come with a shocking lack of respect from those in charge of deciding who stays and who goes. As Boone says, he got the news of his release just days before his fifth anniversary at the paper, and just days after he was ****** ured that he was clear to bring his podcast back on the air. Similarly, Cote's dismissal from the Herald came after 54 years of service, and he got the news on his birthday.

This one started bowling shoe ugly and ended up Sam the Chinese Crested Dog ugly, with Bradley Hanner proving why he is the definition of the 26th man on a Major League roster. Gerrit Cole gave up more home runs, three of em while not making it out of the fifth inning, but Hanner wasn't any better, allowing two dingers while five men crossed the plate against him. All this is to say the Yankees were kicked around Saturday afternoon, losing 12-2 to the Mets
I don't know what it is about Gerrit Cole. He's always been a little bit homer ***** e, especially since coming to Yankee Stadium. Fastballs in the zone lead to some kinds of nasty contact, but the thing that's really been different about him since returning from Tommy John is how many pitches he's keeping in the zone. He's got the lowest walk rate of his career, and indeed he didn't walk a single batter today. He also has the highest Zone%, or, throws more pitches in the strike zone than any other season of his career.
In his last two starts he's allowed seven home runs. Only three today, though they still counted for four runs like last weekend against the Padres.
Part of this is just random variance, enough monkeys at enough typewriters for long enough. Any time you talk about two games' worth of data, you have to throw up your hands at the universe. He's also been stung by Fernando Tatis Jr., Manny Machado, Jake Cronenworth, Francisco Lindor…guys that have been around the block. Lindor especially looked keyed up to swing in the game's first AB, the first dinger Cole allowed today. Former Baby Bomber Luis Torrens and rookie Carson Benge also homered off Cole to build a 4-0 lead.

Dolly Parton and Tennessee go hand in hand. Dollywood already draws tourists who love her music. But the state has officially decided to honor her by changing the name of Nashville International Airport so every traveler will be familiar with her name.
TMZ reported that the Metropolitan Nashville Airport Authority voted unanimously on Sept. 11 to proceed with the name change. Airport officials are hoping to work with the country legend's estate on potential merchandise and licensing revenue.
The "Jolene" songwriter created another tourist hotspot before her death. Dolly Parton's Songwriter Hotel and museum opens in October 2026. The museum covers every decade of her life. Of course, there is a music venue on a different floor. Then there is a separate lounge for more live music called "Joelene's" and a cafe.

"I am so proud of this," Parton told PEOPLE. "We found this location early one morning. I knew I wanted to do something special in Nashville, and until I saw this building, nothing ever hit me as the right thing to do."

Ciara and Russell Wilson have another child on the way.
In a post shared on Instagram, the 40-year-old singer-songwriter and 37-year-old former NFL star confirmed that they're expecting their fourth child together. "One more person to love," Ciara wrote alongside the carousel post on Instagram, which included videos and photos showing her hanging laundry with a baby ***** p. The laundry consists of four shirts with each of their kids' names on it alongside a baby onesie.
COMPLEX SHOP: Shop the brands you love, anytime and anywhere. Uncover what's next. Buy. Collect. Obsess.
The couple, who got married in 2016, have welcomed three children together since tying the knot. They share nine-year-old Sienna Princess, six-year-old Win Harrison, and two-year-old Amora Princess. Their fourth child together will be Ciara's fifth overall, as she also shares 12-year-old Future Zahir Wilburn with her ex-fiancé, Future.
The couple has yet to announce a due date for their child. Earlier this year, they shared footage of their wedding to celebrate the tenth anniversary of their marriage.

Well STS readers, I come to you this week recovering from an extremely sobering experience last Saturday night. I predicted a fight even in a loss, and if it even qualified as a fight, it resembled Drago vs. Apollo in Rocky IV. Probably an adequate ******* ogy because Apollo USED to be great, but he was no match for the modernized superweapon Drago. Did the Soviets cheat to develop him? Absolutely, but at that point they were doing whatever it took to be superior no matter the morality of it. Clemson fans like me could be heard yelling "throw in the ******* towel!" by maybe the fourth possession of the game. It was that obvious that Clemson was completely and totally outmatched at the lines of scrimmage and the surrounding skill had zero chance because of it on either side of the ball.
How did it come to this? I posted this in a comment on the game review thread and will paste it here as it summarizes what I have painfully allowed myself to realize: "I hate it for Dabo and others who really want to do this the way it is supposed to be done, which is to develop men and grow boys to men and that takes time more often than not. That is what the transfer portal and NIL and lack of tampering control has created and as much as Dabo has tried to evolve I just don't see how he could ever get to what actually has to be done now if you want to be elite. I bet if you begin to track LSU, Ohio State, Texas, etc, going forward, you will see that maybe 50% of their rosters will start and finish with them and the other half will be brought in from elsewhere at some stage of their five-year playing window. Dabo swallows hard just to have the maybe 15% we are up to now that would check that box. I totally understand why, but either Dabo has to let go of that OR Clemson needs a huge break and actual sane rules return to CFB. Otherwise, we are back to 1995 where we might be able to beat ok teams and bad teams but are done beating anyone that is legit top 15 in stature."
I am a Clemson Tiger for life and lived through the lean years between Ford and Dabo. I'll still tune in and attend games when I can, but I know now that something has to give if Clemson is ever going to hope to compete at the highest level and it may get worse before it can get better. I'm still looking for pathways to wins, as many wins as this team can find a way to manage. I agree they are likely better than that product we saw in Baton Rouge, but that is not saying a lot either considering how FCS level the Tigers looked in that game.
I also want to add that I highly recommend gear from our sponsor Section 103. Their polos in particular have already become some of my favorites in the closet.

"The Matrix" director Lilly Wachowski issued blunt comments about J.K. Rowling in a new interview, accusing the "Harry Potter" writer of funding transgender genocide. Now, the prolific author has responded via a statement from a representative, highlighting the right to free speech.
Jeffrey Mayer/JTMPhotos, Int'l. / MEGA
Following Wachowski accusing Rowling of "funding trans genocide" and lumping her in with ****** s, her agent, Neil Blair, issued a response to the filmmaker via Entertainment Weekly. Blair began, "Freedom of speech is a principle we should all cherish."
The statement continued, "What matters is that J.K. Rowling's views, as with anyone else's, are represented accurately, fairly and respectfully and that individual opinion does not detract from those views."
In addressing the "Matrix" director directly, the agent noted, "To correct Lilly Wachowski, through The J.K. Rowling Women's Fund, J.K Rowling supports women taking legal action in the UK to preserve their existing rights under the Equality Act 2010, which are often overlooked or threatened."

Bebe Rexha sent Drake a shot. And he didn't respond.
Grammy-nominated singer revealed in a new episode of Angie Martinez's IRL podcast how she tried to hook up with the rapper in the wake of his popular 20v1 speed-dating live stream last month, but remained unanswered.
"I'm your dream girl, I'm Albanian, I got a fat a**, I got my own thing going on, and I don't even think he saw it or he saw it and just ignored it," Rexha said.
In this episode, released on September 10th, she shared details of her path from NYC songwriter to recording artist in Los Angeles, and her collaboration with country icon Dolly Parton on their duet "Seasons."
The singer thinks Drake might have been spoiled too much by his ex-girlfriends to be interested in someone else. As is known, the rapper had a romance with Rihanna, whose famous hits included such duets with Drake as "What's My Name?" and "Work."

Carole Radziwill shared the backstory on how Kim Kardashian came to own the so-called "cursed" Cartier watch formerly belonging to Jackie Kennedy Onassis
The Bravo star came into possession of the watch when her late husband and nephew of Kennedy Onassis, Anthony Radziwill, gifted it to her for her 30th birthday
However, after seeing three women, including herself, become widowed after owning the accessory, she decided to put it up for auction through Christie's

Stephen Curry has made up his mind about re-signing with the Warriors, Veteran reporter says originally appeared on The Sporting News. Add The Sporting News as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
One of the biggest questions surrounding the Golden State Warriors is whether Stephen Curry is re-signing with the team or if he'll head into free agency after the 2026-27 season. He's obviously the face of this franchise, along with Draymond Green, so it would be a huge blow to see him go.
But, this is the NBA, and just look at what happened with LeBron James leaving the Lakers after eight seasons. So, anything can happen in this league.
Now, one veteran Warriors beat writer is **** erting that he knows exactly what Curry will do when it's time to sign on the dotted line. He says Curry is staying in Golden State.
Longtime NBA journalist and The Athletic columnist Marcus Thompson II spoke with HoopsHype about his new book, "Game Changers: The GOATs Who Revolutionized Basketball," and during the talk, he discussed Curry's future.

You covered the Warriors' golden era for years. What do you make of Stephen Curry's current situation and future? Do you expect him to re-sign with the Warriors? Marcus Thompson: Steph is re-signing. Steph isn't going anywhere. He never was. It's really important to him. He said this for years. He wants to play for the same team his whole career. And I think it would take something dramatic to get him off that. And at 38, it's tough. Like, where's he going? I mean, that's a big one. Where does Steph Curry feel comfortable going and feel like it's his? I think he's a very honor-driven player and I do think he takes honor in, hey, he'd rather go down not winning with his guys than going somewhere else and winning. People have to remember he had a front-row seat to what happened to KD. You go to another team, win a championship with somebody else, people will turn that against you. Steph hears everything. He listens and he's very protective of his reputation that way. So I think the Warriors would have to say, 'Hey, we don't want to do this anymore.' They would have to be like, 'We don't want to win; we just want to get rid of all this money, go cheap, and let's go the cheap route.' And that's just not who the Warriors are. It just isn't.

Sep. 10—To preview Washington State's next game, a road test against Big 12 foe Kansas State, The Spokesman-Review conferred with K-State beat writer Ryan Gilbert, who covers the Wildcats for GoPowercat.
Here is our Q&A.
1. How did K-State's offensive line look against Nicholls, and do the injuries to John Pastore and George Fitzpatrick look to hamper the Cats as much as it might seem?
The offensive line checked all the boxes it could on Saturday. There were a lot of questions surrounding this group entering the season, but game No. 1 was a success. That being said, Nicholls is just not a good football team, so it's tough to get too excited over that performance in the trenches. K-State simply had the bigger, more physically dominant dudes at the point of contact. Anything other than a promising night would have been a concern for the offensive line.
George Fitzpatrick not being able to give it a go didn't help matters, but Collin Klein & Co. certainly couldn't have been caught off guard when they learned he had to be sidelined this season. His health condition from last offseason just lingered and lingered, so it's not like this just happened out of nowhere. There was ample time to create a backup plan. John Pastore, though, was supposed to be not just a starter but a true star at left tackle. His injury, which will sideline him for the season, happened about a month before the season, and then Tanner Morley also had to miss some time late in camp, so everything kind of just compounded at once.

Red Sox Spent Last Week Getting House in 'Order' Regarding Injuries originally appeared on NESN. Add NESN as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
The Boston Red Sox have given themselves a good chance to not only win a World Series, but also take things easy over the next couple of weeks.
The last thing the Red Sox want to do is deal with any more injuries than they already have, and at 80-67, they're likely not to win the American League East. With a six-game lead in the American League Wild Card race, there truly isn't a whole lot to worry about.
While we've seen some crazy things happen throughout the campaign, and the Red Sox can't guarantee that they're in the playoffs until things finish, they have to feel pretty good about where things stand.
According to the latest from their MLB.com writer, the Red Sox are spending the last couple of weeks of the regular season, and have already done so, by being smart and getting guys healthy.

Over the past few days, several national college football publications and websites have released power ranking lists for all 138 FBS college football teams following Week 0 and Week 1 of the 2026 college football season. None of these sites have been particularly kind to Rutgers following their season-opening 37-21 loss to UMass, with almost all of them dropping the Scarlet Knights by double-digit rankings. The most brutal of these sites was The Athletic, which dropped Rutgers 57 spots from 79 to 136.
First off, the ******* le of the article is "Re-ranking 138 college football teams after Week 1: LSU starts on top, Rutgers hits a new low"- not a fun start by any means. The rest of the parts of the article that mention Rutgers aren't much better.
"The most shocking win was, of course, UMass' 37-21 victory at Rutgers, ending a 16-game losing streak and 23-game Football Bowl Subdivision losing streak. For that, the Minutemen rise to No. 100. It's the first time since early in the 2025 season that UMass is not ranked last, and it's the first time in 10 years of these rankings that UMass is inside the top 100. The Minutemen's previous high was No. 102 late in the 2018 season. Congrats to UMass," said Athletic writer Chris Vannini in the article.
"Rutgers falls all the way to No. 136 for that blowout loss to UMass, which wasn't as close as the 16-point final margin would indicate. This is the new lowest position for a Power 4 team in 10 years of these rankings," said Athletic writer Chris Vannini in the article.
While Rutgers' performance against UMass is inexcusable and has put the Knights in the same ranking bracket as teams like Bowling Green, Northern Illinois, Utah State and Charlotte in the eyes of the Athletic. While Rutgers' loss to UMass is an incredibly tough pill to swallow, being rated in the bottom three teams in the country still seems a little low. Even a terrible Big Ten team should be able to stay out of there.

When private companies go public, they announce a lockup period that prevents their insiders, consisting of high-ranking executives, board members, and early investors, from selling shares shortly after the IPO and capitalizing on IPO/retail investor buzz. Commonly, insiders are prohibited from selling their shares for the first 180 calendar days after the IPO.

Dolly Parton's sister, Stella Parton, is reflecting on the late singer-songwriter choosing to keep her battle with cancer private and her family's choice not to disclose the type of cancer.
While Stella Parton echoed what other relatives have said about Dolly Parton not wanting to share her cancer diagnosis publicly because she didn't want to worry her fans, she added, in an interview with Gayle King that aired on CBS Mornings Thursday, that the family is also choosing not to share what kind of cancer Dolly Parton was battling because they got the sense Dolly Parton wanted to keep it private.

The Cleveland Browns have had plenty of time this offseason to reflect on what they need to do in 2026. With a new coaching staff and an overhauled roster, Week 1 will speak volumes about what they'll be like.
ESPN also did one last bit of reflection when they tasked the beat writers for their respective teams with answering a few final questions about their teams. However, one question was directed at ESPN's Seth Walder. He was asked what a bold prediction about the Browns is.
His answer centered on the quarterback position.
He answered, "Quarterback Taylen Green will start at least four games. Perhaps there's no fourth-string player with an easier path to playing time than Green, a sixth-round pick out of Arkansas. I'm bearish on Watson, Sanders and Gabriel, so by the time the end of the season rolls around, I suspect the Browns will want to see if they have anything in Green."
Taylen Green may already be getting some work in packages. He just brings something to the position with his speed and mobility that no one else on the depth chart does. When an offense needs a spark, Green ca provide that and he showed it during the preseason.

Tennis icon and 18-time Grand Slam champion Chris Evert has been away from her broadcasting duties since her ovarian cancer returned for the third time following her initial diagnosis in 2021. Evert is currently undergoing treatment and has stepped away from broadcasting at Wimbledon and the ongoing US Open.
American sports journalist and senior writer for Sports Illustrated Jon Wertheim shared a heartfelt social media post honoring Evert, noting that she is deeply missed at Flushing Meadows.
[adsot]
"Hearing her voice on the USTA Foundation commercials reminds us that ChrissieEvert is a) so thoroughly decent and charitable and oozing with grace b) so thoroughly missed here," Wertheim wrote on X.
Evert was quick to share a couple of responses to Wertheim's heartfelt post.

Meghan Markle's first outing in the UK came with considerable "fanfare." Prince Harry and Markle are back in Britain along with their children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet. This time, they are here for an extended stay. Their kids are also expected to attend school in the UK starting this September.
Amid this, the **** ss of Sussex was seen on her first outing. She reportedly went to Soho Farmhouse early in the morning and was informally introduced to several senior staff members by their names.
After her return to the UK, Meghan Markle reportedly stepped out solo for her first outing. According to a report by The Daily Beast, the **** ss was spotted at Soho Farmhouse. She went there early in the morning, before 9 AM. She reportedly made her way to a private upstairs lounge area called the "Comfy Farm," where children are not allowed.
Tom Skyes, the writer, noted that a considerable "fanfare" was made of her following her arrival. She was reportedly introduced informally to several senior employees by name, suggesting that they expect her to visit the club regularly. According to Skyes, she is probably a member and frequently visits the venue. In fact, Markus Anderson, one of her friends, has served as a senior executive at the company for many years.
A source said that early morning is a "good time" to visit Soho Farmhouse, as it is "absolutely lovely" at that time of the day. The venue is described as a celebrity-friendly place where members can relax and rejuvenate. Members aren't allowed to take photos, allowing influential people to unwind and enjoy their time without worrying about being photographed.

Due to some sporadic runs of form and a very big helping hand from the footballing Gods, Liverpool found themselves qualifying for this season's Champions League and so the dream of more European nights at Anfield again became reality. For all of us Reds supporters and club it's the bare minimum requirement, and this writer has been luckily enough to have watched all six finals that Liverpool won, the first in 1977 when I was eight years old.
More importantly in the present moment, Wednesday evening is going to be the very first European game for head coach Andoni Iraola as head coach of any club, and let's hope that it will be even more than he could ever imagine because it's at Anfield and against one of the most difficult opponents in the Champions League in recent years in Diego Simeone's Atletico Madrid.
Everyone involved in European football probably knows about those Famous European Nights at Anfield under the lights, but it's not all up to the supporters—the players will need to start in the right mood as they did against Ipswich, with intensity from the first whistle but unlike in that game the players won't be allowed to ease up until the final whistle is blown.
There is history between Liverpool and Atleti, with the Reds winning three of the seven times the clubs have faced off in the Champions League whilst Atletico have won two and then two draws between them. More than the match ups being fairly even there are the tough tactics of Simeone, who has a knack of getting under the skin of opposing managers as well his players being very physical in their play. It's going to be an interesting test for Iraola and the players but especially Liverpool's head coach as this will be his first experience of the Champions league and a congested fixture list.
"Big game, the first Champions League for me as a coach," Iraola noted during the post-Ipswich match interviews when he was asked about the approaching match against Atletico. "At Anfield, under the lights. I love to play at night."

Tom Holland and Zendaya had a luxury getaway to ***** an planned, but their hectic promotional schedule left them too exhausted to enjoy it. Instead, they handed the luxury trip to Tom's parents, Dominic and Nicola Holland.
The couple has dated since 2021 and quietly tied the knot. They spent months promoting the latest superhero movie and Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey. Their packed schedules left them too exhausted to make the ***** an trip themselves. Comedian and writer Dominic Holland has now revealed how the couple turned their canceled getaway into a vacation for him and his wife.
His father narrated, as per Daily Mail, "So, you know that Tom had a few films out recently, he had The Odyssey out, then he had Spider-Man. And he's been tired; he's been working unbelievably hard. He and Zendaya have probably done twice around the globe to promote these films.
He continued, "They were tired. They'd probably done maybe 20, 10-hour flights." About three days after the London premiere, Tom told him they had a holiday planned in ***** an. Dominic said he told Tom, "That'll be nice, Tom. You'll enjoy it." But Tom admitted he was too tired to go. He told his father, "Dad, it's too far, and I'm too tired." Tom then came up with another plan and told Dominic he would send him and his mum, Nicola, instead.
Dominic joked that being Tom's father came with plenty of perks, including first-class travel and luxury hotels. However, he said the hotel and restaurant staff expected to see the Hollywood star, only to find Dominic instead. He said that even the famously polite ***** anese staff seemed disappointed when he arrived. Dominic added, 'The ***** anese are very polite and servile people, but even they went, "Hmm."' He then poked fun at his own career, saying, 'Typical of me — here's the thing… I've written 10 books and got exactly zero with me tonight, which sums up my career.'"

To challenge Corbin, Williams needed Yachty to survive five minutes against him without being pinned, and Yachty did just that.
Not only did he survive the time limit, but he also showcased his wrestling talent as he pulled out a hurricanrana on Corbin, followed by a cross-body from the top rope.

The Miami Heat were among the teams Ben Simmons was interested in joining before agreeing to a one-year, $3.5 million deal with the Sacramento Kings. But the Heat reportedly passed on signing him despite their current priority of adding point guard depth.
According to Ira Winderman, the veteran senior writer with the Sun Sentinel, the Miami Heat turned down Ben Simmons because he is no longer a proven win-now player.
"At a certain point, a team in win-now mode has to draw a valuation line between players who can be developed/reclaimed and those needed to be able to contribute in the moment, without questions of whether they are healthy enough or still skilled enough."
"In the development bucket, the Heat have Ryan Conwell, Myron Gardner, Tre Donaldson and even, still, Nikola Jovic and Pelle Larsson. So adding an unknown quantity would have meant going without, say, a Nick Richards or Klay Thompson or Tim Hardaway Jr," Winderman explained in his latest report.
"The Kings make all the sense for Ben Simmons, and he makes all the sense for them. There is no pressure to produce in Sacramento, but rather to begin a potential climb back to relevance."
