  • Comcast beat Wall Street expectations for its fourth quarter of 2024 as Peacock continued to narrow its losses and "Wicked" helped the studios business defy gravity with an 85% increase in profit to $569 million.

Peacock, the streaming service owned by Comcast, reported a reduced loss of $372 million in the fourth quarter, an improvement from the $978 million loss in the same period the previous year. This financial update was part of Comcast's broader earnings report, which highlighted a significant boost in its studios segment, largely due to the success of the film "Wicked." The movie, which is still in production, has already contributed to an 85% increase in profit for Comcast's studios, showcasing the potential of high-profile content to drive financial performance. Despite Peacock's ongoing losses, the narrowing gap indicates a positive trend as the service continues to grow its subscriber base and refine its content strategy.
