Satellite radio company SiriusXM saw serious revenue growth in the third quarter with total revenue of $2.0 billion, a 37% increase year-over-year. The revenue boost was driven by the acquisition of Pandora in February of this year for $3.5 billion. The company reported net income of $246 million, down from $343 million during the same period last year. Net income per diluted common share was $0.05 for the third quarter of 2019, compared to $0.07 for the third quarter of 2018. SiriusXM attributed the net income decrease to refinancing expenses.
