AI-powered enterprise solutions and digital media, including Crave, drove significant subscriber and revenue growth, with Crave subscribers up 26% to 4.6M and direct streaming up 65%.
Capital allocation focused on reducing leverage, maintaining a sustainable dividend, and funding high-return growth initiatives.

Free cash flow grew 10% to $3.18B, and after lease liabilities rose 17.5% to $2.05B.

One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.
