Guidance and outlook

Forward-looking statements, 10-Q filed Oct 22, 2026

• In 2025, we simplified our broadband pricing structure and began offering a free wireless line for one year to new and existing domestic broadband customers, which we expect will improve customer retention and strengthen our ability to compete for new customers, but will negatively impact average domestic broadband revenue per customer.
• We also expect continued declines in video revenue as a result of domestic customer net losses due to shifting video consumption patterns and the competitive environment, although customer net losses typically mitigate the impact of continued rate increases on programming expenses, as well as continued declines in other revenue related to declines in wireline voice revenue.
• We expect that the number of subscribers and audience ratings at our linear television networks will continue to decline as a result of the competitive environment and shifting video consumption patterns, which we aim to mitigate over time by growth in both paid subscribers and advertising revenue at Peacock.
• We expect to continue to incur significant costs related to content and marketing at Peacock.
• We continue to invest significantly in existing and new theme park attractions, hotels and infrastructure, including Epic Universe in Orlando, which opened in May 2025, as well as in new destinations and experiences, including Universal United Kingdom Resort, a theme park and resort with a projected opening date in 2031.
• We believe that we will be able to continue to meet our current and long-term liquidity and capital requirements, including fixed charges, through our cash flows from operating activities; existing cash, cas h equivalents and investments; available borrowings under our existing credit facility; and our ability to obtain future external financing.
• We anticipate that we will continue to use a substantial portion of our cash flows from operating activities in repaying our debt obligations, funding our capital expenditures and cash paid for intangible assets, investing in business opportunities, and returning capital to shareholders.
• As of September 30, 2026, we met this financial covenant, and we expect to remain in compliance with this financial covenant.
• Legislation signed into law in 2025 in the United States is expected to continue to significantly reduce our payments of income taxes over the next several years, with variability across the years, primarily due to additional depreciation deductions.
• We expect to continue to pay quarterly dividends, although each dividend is subject to approval by our Board of Directo r s.
• The preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses, and the related disclosure of contingent assets and contingent liabilities.
• For a more complete discussion of the accounting estimates that we have identified as critical in the preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements, please refer to our Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
