Отчётный звонок Comcast Corporation
Broadband subscriber losses improved by 117,000 year-over-year
Comcast's Q1 2026 call highlighted early success in its connectivity pivot: broadband net losses improved 117k YoY, wireless net adds hit a record 435k, and wireless penetration reached 16%. Management cautioned that broadband ARPU pressure will persist one more quarter before easing, driven by free line conversions and pricing strategy normalization. Peacock is expected to approach profitability in Q2, and the new MobilePlus plan with free device protection aims to disrupt mobile incumbents. Broadband net losses improved to 65,000 (vs 182k YoY), more than half of the improvement attributed to 'Legendary February' marketing investments.
