Fubo Loses Over 500,000 North American Subscribers
FuboTV Inc. reported a sequential decline in North American subscribers for fiscal Q2 2026 (quarter ended March 31, 2026), falling to 5.7 million total and paid subscribers from 6.2 million in the prior quarter — a drop of roughly 500,000 (~8.1%). Despite the subscriber reduction, Fubo posted record global revenue of $1.574 billion (North America: $1.566 billion), narrowed its net loss to $6.2 million, and reported positive adjusted EBITDA of $37.7 million. The company ended the quarter with $244 million in cash and reaffirmed FY2026 pro forma adjusted EBITDA guidance of $80–100 million, with longer-term goals of $300 million adjusted EBITDA by fiscal 2028 and positive free cash flow in 2027–2028. The results follow Fubo’s business combination with Hulu + Live TV and include product and distribution integrations with Disney/Hulu/ESPN and plans for an AI DVR natural-language search feature later in 2026.
Disney Owns Fubo and Hulu + Live TV
Disney completed a business combination that folded Hulu + Live TV into Fubo, finalized in late October 2025, leaving Disney with roughly 70% ownership and existing Fubo shareholders with about 30%. The combined company trades under the Fubo name and serves nearly six million North American subscribers. The deal resolved an antitrust lawsuit over a proposed Venu Sports joint venture and included Disney financial support and a shift of advertising sales into Disney’s broader sales organization. Both services continue to operate as distinct consumer products, while ad inventory has migrated to Disney’s centralized ad server and plans call for deeper Hulu + Live TV integration into the Disney+ app by the end of 2026. Leadership changes and cross-promotion aim to capture sports-driven subscriber growth and improve advertising yield across the combined scale.
