Peacock Hits Streaming Gold With Milan Cortina Olympics

Peacock and NBCUniversal are enjoying a record-setting Olympic week, with the Milan Cortina Games delivering 6.3 billion minutes viewed across Peacock and NBCU digital outlets through mid-event—outpacing combined totals from 2018 and 2022. NBCUniversal’s Olympic programming is drawing 25.7 million viewers across its platforms at the point, about 60% higher than the 2022 Games, while the Super Bowl’s roughly 125 million viewers place Peacock/ NBCU at the center of the action. Olympic rights costs remain substantial (about $7.75 billion for 2022–2032, plus a $3 billion extension for 2034–2036), and Peacock’s growth in late 2025 comes with ongoing losses linked to sports rights and streaming NFL games.

Peacock Surges to 44 Million Subs as Comcast Bets on a February Sports Push

Comcast’s NBCUniversal posted a mixed Q4 2025: revenue rose to $32.3B, but Peacock’s losses widened to about $552M due to the NBA rights deal; Peacock ended 2025 with 44M subscribers (up from 41M). Domestic TV revenue slipped, Epic Universe boosted parks revenue, and Versant was spun out to sharpen NBCU’s streaming/live-sports focus. With co-CEOs Roberts and Cavanagh, NBCU is betting on a “Legendary February” (Olympics, Super Bowl, NBA All-Star) to fuel growth in 2026, while wireless gains remain solid (1.5M net adds, 9M+ total lines) amid ongoing broadband losses.
