Comcast today announced plans to spin off NBCUniversal cable TV networks such as USA, CNBC, and MSNBC into a new publicly traded company. Comcast is trying to complete the spinoff in one year, effectively unwinding part of the NBCUniversal acquisition it completed in 2011.
The entities in the planned spinoff generated about $7 billion of revenue in the 12 months that ended September 30, 2024, Comcast said. But cable TV channels have become less lucrative in an industry that’s shifting to the streaming model, and the spinoff would let Comcast remove those assets from its earnings reports. Comcast’s total revenue in the 12-month period was about $123 billion.
Comcast President Mike Cavanagh said in the Q3 earnings call on October 31 that Comcast is “experiencing the effects of the transition in our video businesses and have been studying the best path forward for these assets.”
