Executive summary

  • Awaiting regulatory approval for a major spectrum sale, with significant capital influx expected in the first half of the year.

  • Total revenue for 2025 was $15.00 billion, down 4.3% year-over-year, driven by Pay-TV and Broadband/Satellite weakness, partially offset by Wireless growth.

  • Net loss attributable to the company in 2025 was $14.50 billion, primarily due to $17.63 billion in non-cash asset impairments and other expenses, compared to a $335M profit in Q4 2024.

  • The company is undergoing a large-scale transformation, focusing on long-term value creation and strategic bets.

  • Actively monitoring opportunities for both active and passive investments, including potential SpaceX equity, but no immediate plans until the deal closes.

  • Adjusted OIBDA for 2025 was $1.49 billion, down from $1.63 billion in 2024, with margin at roughly 10%.

  • Free cash flow improved $24M year-over-year, despite negative net cash flows from operating activities of $99 million in 2025.

  • CapEx dropped $186M (54.1%) year-over-year, mainly from lower spending in Other and BSS; purchases of property and equipment in 2025 totaled $965.7 million.

  • Cash and cash equivalents at year-end 2025 were $1.88 billion, down from $4.31 billion in 2024.

excellent app, it gives me free access to company earnings calls and annual reports. I also love the convenience of calls being available offline so I can listen in whilst doing other things and even when internet or WiFi isn't available.

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.
