“We're making steady progress as we reposition the company for long-term, sustained growth," said Brian L. Roberts, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Comcast Corporation.

In addition, Business Services delivered another solid performance, with mid-single digit revenue and Adjusted EBITDA growth. In Content & Experiences, we're building momentum across NBC and Peacock as we head into one of the most exciting stretches of live sports in our history, including robust NBA coverage which just began last week. The early success of Epic Universe contributed to 19% revenue growth at our Theme Parks, reflecting the strength of our newest attractions and the enduring appeal of the Universal brand. We generated $4.9 billion of free cash flow this quarter and $14.9 billion year-to-date despite significant investment we're making in repositioning our company, a testament to both the durability and resilience of our underlying business."

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 and consistent operating expenses. 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 due to an increase in direct product costs mainly due to higher mobile device sales, the impact of foreign currency and higher marketing and promotion costs driven by our new broadband and mobile offers introduced in April 2025, partially offset by lower fees paid to third-party channels relating to advertising sales. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 37.2%.

The decrease in operating expenses was primarily due to lower sports programming costs associated with the Paris Olympics in the prior year period and a decrease in other sports programming costs for our domestic television networks, mainly reflecting lower sports volumes compared to the prior year period, partially offset by an increase in sports costs for our international networks. Media results include $1.4 billion of revenue and an Adjusted EBITDA⁶ loss of $217 million related to Peacock, compared to $1.5 billion of revenue and an Adjusted EBITDA⁶ loss of $436 million in the prior year period, which included amounts attributable to the Paris Olympics.

Adjusted EBITDA for Studios decreased due to higher operating expenses, which more than offset higher revenue. The increase in operating expenses was primarily driven by higher programming and production expenses, mainly due to higher costs associated with content licensing sales, and higher marketing and promotion expenses due to increased spending on recent and upcoming theatrical film releases.
