Fubo Subscriber Base Nudges Upward as Hulu + Live TV Merger Looms
Los Angeles, CA – Streaming service Fubo announced its Q3 financial results Monday, reporting 1.63 million North American subscribers, a marginal increase from 1.61 million year-over-year. While revenue saw a slight dip to $368.6 million, down from $374.7 million last year, the company significantly trimmed its net loss to $18.8 million.
The results come as Fubo is poised to make a major play in the streaming landscape with its recently announced merger with Disney’s Hulu + Live TV. The deal aims to create one of the largest live TV streaming services in the U.S., allowing Fubo to tap into Disney’s vast content library, including the coveted ESPN ecosystem.
“The combination of Fubo and Hulu + Live TV forms on the largest live TV streaming services in America,” CEO David Gandler told analysts. He added that Fubo would leverage ESPN Radio and ESPN’s website to accelerate subscriber growth. “Once part of the Disney ecosystem, all of our football, basketball, baseball, soccer, all of that inventory will likely move over, hopefully sooner than later.”
Gandler addressed recent concerns about Disney channels going dark on YouTube TV, stating Fubo’s focus remains on its own business. He and CFO John Janedis also highlighted the early success of Fubo Sports, a new sports-focused skinny bundle, citing its ability to expand the company’s addressable market with minimal impact on existing subscriptions.
