‘Ghosts’ Lifts Lionsgate Revenues, But Sluggish Starz Growth Hurts Earnings
04.02.2022 - 00:45 / variety.com
Brent Lang Executive Editor of Film and MediaA few breakout television hits lifted quarterly revenues at Lionsgate, but production delays related to COVID-19 and sluggish subscriber growth at the company’s Starz pay television and streaming arm resulted in losses. Sales at the film and television company climbed 5.8% to $885.4 million, while the net loss attributable to Lionsgate shareholders topped out at $45.6 million or 20 cents per share. That was a steeper drop than the $13.9 million in losses that Lionsgate logged in the year-ago period.
Starz’s net global streaming subscribers increased by 1.7 million in the sequential quarter, with its subscriber base for Starz, Starzplay Arabia and Pantaya topping out at 19.7 million. The company’s results missed Wall Street’s projections. Lionsgate was expected to post quarterly earnings of 22 cents per share on revenues of $993.8 million.
Last quarter, Lionsgate announced that its board of directors has given the greenlight to its management team to explore spinning off or selling its Starz division. The company Lionsgate spent $4.4 billion to buy Starz in 2016, a move that expanded its television operations, but one that also added to its debt load.Lionsgate is also reportedly exploring a possible acquisition of STX, the studio behind “Bad Moms” and “Ugly Dolls.” It’s unclear where those talks stand. Lionsgate itself is seen as a potential acquisition target.
