Comcast's pricing overhaul fails to stop broadband customer losses

Comcast posted a Q4 2025 net broadband loss of 181,000 (178,000 residential, 3,000 business) despite a five-year price guarantee, a year of free Xfinity Mobile for home Internet, and unlimited-data plans. Average revenue per user rose 1.1%, but ongoing competition from fiber and fixed wireless kept churn high as the company accelerates its shift to simplified pricing in 2026 and aims to migrate most customers to the new pricing by year-end, with total broadband customers at 31.26 million (28.72M residential, 2.54M business).

Peacock Surges to 44 Million Subs as Comcast Bets on a February Sports Push

Comcast’s NBCUniversal posted a mixed Q4 2025: revenue rose to $32.3B, but Peacock’s losses widened to about $552M due to the NBA rights deal; Peacock ended 2025 with 44M subscribers (up from 41M). Domestic TV revenue slipped, Epic Universe boosted parks revenue, and Versant was spun out to sharpen NBCU’s streaming/live-sports focus. With co-CEOs Roberts and Cavanagh, NBCU is betting on a “Legendary February” (Olympics, Super Bowl, NBA All-Star) to fuel growth in 2026, while wireless gains remain solid (1.5M net adds, 9M+ total lines) amid ongoing broadband losses.
