Previous Earnings Reports
| Date | Event | Sentiment | Move | Catalyst |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Nov 13 | Q3 2025 earnings | Negative | -6.3% | Reported higher net loss and modest Adjusted OIBDA, with leverage at 3.4x. |
| May 29 | FY2025 update | Positive | +26.9% | Fiscal 2025 results with strong Adjusted OIBDA and significant OTT subscriber growth. |
Earnings and business updates have produced sizable but mixed reactions, with one strongly positive move and one notable negative move; overall average move around earnings-related news was 10.32% in magnitude.
Recent history shows STARZ using earnings and business updates to reset expectations post-separation. On May 29, 2025, a fiscal year business update with strong Adjusted OIBDA of $201.5M and subscriber growth saw shares react +26.95%. By Nov 13, 2025, Q3 calendar results with a larger net loss and leverage at 3.4x triggered a -6.3% move. Today’s Q4 2025 earnings build on that trajectory, highlighting sequential Adjusted OIBDA growth and leverage at 2.9x against a still-depressed share price versus the $22.98 52-week high.
Historical Comparison
STARZ earnings-related updates over the past year have produced sizable swings, with one strong rally and one selloff. This Q4 2025 report fits that pattern of earnings acting as key inflection points for sentiment.
Earnings history shows STARZ transitioning from fiscal FY2025 reporting into calendar quarters post-separation, with repeated emphasis on Adjusted OIBDA, leverage reduction, and OTT subscriber growth as primary performance markers.
Market Pulse Summary
The stock surged +14.8% in the session following this news. A strong positive reaction aligns with past instances where STARZ earnings or business updates shifted sentiment, such as the +26.95% move on fiscal 2025 results. This report combines sequential revenue and Adjusted OIBDA growth with leverage at 2.9x, even as the stock trades well below its $22.98 52-week high. Risks include the ongoing $(208.7)M TTM operating loss and prior insider selling that could temper follow-through.

"With a disciplined investment strategy, a more efficient operating model, and one of our strongest programming slates to date, we are poised to drive sustainable OTT revenue growth, expand profitability, and improve free cash flow as we execute against our long-term targets."

USE OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
This earnings release presents the following important financial measure utilized by Starz Entertainment Corp. (the "Company," "Starz," "we," "us" or "our") that is not a financial measure defined by
Adjusted OIBDA: Adjusted OIBDA is defined as operating income (loss) before depreciation and amortization ("OIBDA"), adjusted for adjusted share-based compensation ("adjusted SBC"), restructuring and other costs, and unusual gains or losses (such as goodwill and intangible asset impairment), when applicable.
- Depreciation and amortization as presented on our combined statement of operations.
- Adjusted share-based expense compensation represents share-based compensation excluding the impact of the acceleration of certain vesting schedules for equity awards pursuant to certain severance arrangements, which are included in restructuring and other expenses, when applicable.
- Restructuring and other includes restructuring costs, certain transaction-related and other expenses, and unusual items, when applicable.
- Goodwill impairment and intangible asset impairment, when applicable.
Adjusted OIBDA Leverage Ratios: Adjusted OIBDA Leverage Ratio is defined as Net Corporate Debt (represents total Corporate Debt, excluding Unamortized Debt Issuance Costs, minus Cash and Cash Equivalents), divided by Adjusted OIBDA for the trailing twelve-months.
Free Cash Flow: Free Cash Flow is defined as net cash provided by (used in) operating activities, less capital expenditures.
Overall: These measures are non-GAAP financial measures as defined in Regulation G promulgated by the SEC and are in addition to, not a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.
We use these non-GAAP measures, among other measures, to evaluate the operating performance of our business. We believe these measures provide useful information to investors regarding our results of operations before non-operating items and cash flows. Adjusted OIBDA is considered an important measure of the Company's performance because this measure eliminates amounts that, in management's opinion, do not necessarily reflect the fundamental performance of the Company's businesses, are infrequent in occurrence, and in some cases are non-cash expenses. In addition, the Adjusted OIBDA Leverage Ratio is an important metric as it provides insight into the Company's capital structure and financial risk, helping assess the Company's ability to meet its debt obligations and maintain financial flexibility. Free Cash Flow is considered an important measure of the Company's liquidity because it provides information about the ability of the Company to reduce net corporate debt and make strategic investments. The Company utilizes these measures, among others, to evaluate the performance of its business relative to its peers and the broader market.
These non-GAAP measures are commonly used in the entertainment industry and by financial analysts and others who follow the industry to measure operating performance. However, not all companies calculate these measures in the same manner and the measures as presented may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies due to differences in the methods of calculation and excluded items.
A general limitation of these non-GAAP financial measures is that they are not prepared in accordance with GAAP. These measures should be reviewed in conjunction with the relevant GAAP financial measures and are not presented as an alternative measure of operating income, cash flow, net income (loss), or earnings (loss) per share as determined in accordance with GAAP.
