Comcast Corporation (NASDAQ: CMCSA) today reported results for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2025.

"2025 was a year of meaningful progress as we made decisive changes to position the company for long-term, sustainable growth," said co-CEOs Brian L. Roberts and Mike Cavanagh. "It was also our best year ever in wireless, with 1.5 million net line additions and more than 9 million total lines, clear evidence of the strength of our converged connectivity strategy. We launched the most significant broadband go-to-market shift in our history, simplifying how we sell to and serve customers, and we are seeing encouraging early results. Epic Universe is off to a terrific start, driving higher per-cap spending and attendance across Orlando; and Peacock delivered double-digit revenue growth, underscoring the momentum of its sports and entertainment lineup, including the debut of the NBA on NBC and Peacock. We also completed the spin of Versant Media, creating a more focused NBCUniversal centered on streaming, live sports, and premium content. Even as we invested behind these initiatives, we generated record levels of free cash flow and maintained a strong balance sheet, reflecting a disciplined approach to capital allocation as we remain focused on execution in 2026."

Connectivity & Platforms

Revenue for Connectivity & Platforms decreased compared to the prior year period. Adjusted EBITDA decreased due to a decline in Residential Connectivity & Platforms Adjusted EBITDA, partially offset by growth in Business Services Adjusted EBITDA. Residential Connectivity & Platforms revenue and Adjusted EBITDA reflect the investment in our new go-to-market strategy. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 37.1%.

Total Customer Relationships for Connectivity & Platforms decreased by 181,000 to 50.8 million, reflecting a decrease in domestic customer relationships, partially offset by an increase in international customer relationships. Total domestic broadband customer net losses were 181,000, total domestic wireless line net additions were 364,000 and total domestic video customer net losses were 245,000.

Residential Connectivity & Platforms

Revenue for Residential Connectivity & Platforms decreased compared to the prior year period, reflecting decreases in video, advertising, other and broadband revenue, partially offset by increases in domestic wireless and international connectivity revenue. Domestic broadband revenue decreased due to a decline in the number of domestic broadband customers, partially offset by higher average rates. Domestic wireless revenue increased primarily due to an increase in the number of customer lines and device sales. International connectivity revenue increased primarily due to an increase in broadband revenue from higher average rates as well as the positive impact of foreign currency. Video revenue decreased primarily due to a decline in the number of video customers, partially offset by the positive impact of foreign currency. Advertising revenue decreased primarily due to lower domestic political advertising. Other revenue decreased primarily due to lower residential wireline voice revenue, driven by a decline in the number of customers.

Adjusted EBITDA for Residential Connectivity & Platforms decreased due to lower revenue, partially offset by lower operating expenses when excluding the impact of foreign currency. Programming expenses decreased primarily due to a decline in the number of domestic video customers, partially offset by rate increases under our domestic programming contracts, an increase in programming expenses for our international sports networks and the impact of foreign currency. Non-programming expenses increased primarily reflecting an increase in direct product costs mainly due to higher mobile device sales, the impact of foreign currency and higher marketing and promotion costs, partially offset by lower other expenses. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 34.6%.

Business Services Connectivity

Revenue for Business Services Connectivity increased primarily due to an increase in revenue from enterprise solutions offerings, including the results from a recent acquisition.

Adjusted EBITDA for Business Services Connectivity increased due to higher revenue, partially offset by higher operating expenses.

Content & Experiences

Revenue for Content & Experiences increased compared to the prior year period driven primarily by Theme Parks and Media, partially offset by a decrease in Studios. Adjusted EBITDA for Content & Experiences decreased primarily due to declines in Media and Studios, partially offset by growth in Theme Parks.

Media

Revenue for Media increased due to higher international networks, domestic distribution and domestic advertising revenue. Domestic advertising revenue increased primarily due to an increase in revenue at Peacock, partially offset by lower revenue at our networks. The increase in advertising revenue includes the positive impact from the launch of the NBA this quarter. Domestic distribution revenue increased primarily due to higher revenue at Peacock, driven by an increase in paid subscribers compared to the prior year period, partially offset by lower revenue at our linear television networks. International networks revenue increased primarily due to an increase in revenue associated with the distribution of sports networks and the positive impact of foreign currency.

Adjusted EBITDA for Media decreased due to higher operating expenses, which more than offset higher revenue. The increase in operating expenses primarily reflects higher programming costs at Peacock and elevated sports rights expenses on our linear networks, both of which include costs associated with the launch of the NBA this quarter. Media results include $1.6 billion of revenue and an Adjusted EBITDA⁶ loss of $552 million related to Peacock, compared to $1.3 billion of revenue and an Adjusted EBITDA⁶ loss of $372 million in the prior year period.

Studios

Revenue for Studios decreased due to lower content licensing and theatrical revenue. Content licensing revenue decreased primarily due to the timing of when content was made available by our television and film studios. Theatrical revenue decreased primarily due to tougher comparisons against prior-year releases, including Wicked and The Wild Robot, versus current-quarter titles Wicked: For Good and Black Phone 2.

Adjusted EBITDA for Studios decreased due to lower revenue and consistent operating expenses. The consistent operating expenses primarily reflected higher marketing and promotion expenses due to increased spending on recent and upcoming theatrical film releases, offset by lower programming and production expenses, mainly due to lower costs associated with theatrical releases and lower content licensing sales at our television studios.

Theme Parks

Revenue for Theme Parks increased due to higher revenue at domestic theme parks, driven by the successful opening of Epic Universe in May 2025.

Corporate, Other and Eliminations
