Starz第三季度营收增0.5%至3.224亿美元：净亏损收窄至3480万美元，流媒体增长抵消传统电视下滑
Starz于10月29日公布第三季度业绩（截至9月）：总营收同比增长0.5%至3.224亿美元，优于华尔街预期的3.195亿美元；净亏损由去年同期的5260万美元收窄至3480万美元，每股亏损2.02美元，同样好于预期的2.96美元。财报公布后，Starz股价在盘后交易中上涨约3%。
分业务看，流媒体服务收入增长1.7%至2.266亿美元，年度订户以更高价格续约及今年4月的涨价是主要推动；若剔除加拿大业务改采内容授权模式的影响，流媒体收入增幅为3.2%。传统电视分发与其他收入则降至9580万美元。
公司总裁兼首席执行官Jeffrey Hirsch表示，公司的业务战略仍聚焦于扩大内容所有权、巩固现有分发合作，并通过传统电视商、独立流媒体订阅与捆绑服务等多种渠道触达订户。
本季播出的《Power Book III: Raising Kanan》《Fightland》《Outlander: Blood of My Blood》第二季以及公司史上表现最好的付费点播影片《Michael》等内容，带动了长期订户在应用内的参与度创下新高。公司维持2026年展望不变，包括流媒体收入同比正增长与调整后营业利润中个位数增长。
Starz Q3 Revenue Rises 0.5% to $322.4 Million as Net Loss Narrows to $34.8 Million on Streaming Growth
Starz reported third-quarter results on October 29: total revenue rose 0.5 percent to $322.4 million, ahead of Wall Street expectations of $319.5 million, while the net loss narrowed to $34.8 million, or $2.02 a share, from $52.6 million a year earlier — better than the expected loss of $2.96 a share. Shares rose about 3 percent in after-hours trading.
Streaming revenue grew 1.7 percent to $226.6 million, helped by annual subscribers renewing at higher prices and an April price increase; adjusted for the shift of the Canadian business to a content licensing model, streaming revenue growth would have been 3.2 percent. Linear and other revenue fell to $95.8 million.
President and CEO Jeffrey Hirsch said the company's strategy remains focused on expanding content ownership, strengthening distribution partnerships and reaching subscribers through traditional providers, standalone streaming subscriptions and bundles.
Titles including 'Power Book III: Raising Kanan,' the company's first wholly owned original 'Fightland,' 'Outlander: Blood of My Blood' Season 2 and 'Michael' — the best-performing Pay 1 title in Starz history — drove record engagement among long-tenured app subscribers. The company maintained its 2026 outlook.
