Fubo sheds subscribers, but narrows losses in Q1

Fubo sheds subscribers, but narrows losses in Q1

The streamer will begin to be sold alongside other Disney streamers like Hulu + Live TV and ESPN Unlimited in the coming months.

Known for breaking major streaming stories, he’s covered everything from Netflix policy shifts to Peacock’s ad-tier changes. A sci-fi fan and Toshiba Fire TV user, he brings sharp analysis and a love for the genre to his reporting.
Fubo consistently changes its plans and packages.

Fubo is now a part of the Disney streaming family, and as such, its earnings results are now reported at the same time as other Disney-owned services. The streamer has now revealed its earnings report for its second fiscal quarter of 2026 (starting in January and ending in March), and the numbers show a mostly strong performance from Fubo during the period.

Key Details:

  • Subscriber dip: Fubo and Hulu + Live TV now combine for 5.9 million subscribers.
  • Revenue jump: Overall revenues rose, and losses shrank for Fubo in the quarter.
  • Synergies incoming: Fubo will begin selling Hulu + Live TV packages on its website, and Fubo Sports will be included in ESPN’s funnel next year.

Disney now reports the subscriber details of Fubo and Hulu + Live TV as one number. The two streamers combined to deliver 5.7 million North American customers at the end of the most recent quarter, and 328,000 in all other territories where the two services are available. That adds up to just over 6 million paid subscribers globally, around 500,000 fewer than the previous quarter.

Financially, however, things were a little better for Fubo in its second fiscal quarter. The streamer was able to narrow its losses to just $6.2 million, down compared to a net loss of $40.9 milion in the year-ago quarter. Overall revenues rose from $1.12 billion in Fubo’s fiscal Q2 2025 to $1.57 billion.

As mentioned, the streaming service is now controlled by Disney, which means the company can now widen the distribution of its various streamers. In its earnings report, Fubo announced that it has made Hulu + Live TV plans available in its own content funnel, allowing customers to sign up for those plans directly through the Fubo website.

“Fubo’s second quarter Fiscal Year 2026 results, including record revenue of $1.6 billion globally, demonstrate the growing strength and scale of our business,” Fubo CEO David Gandler said of the streamer’s second-quarter earnings.

In the first half of 2027, the “skinny” Fubo Sports channel bundle will become available in ESPN’s ecommerce flow, allowing customers to sign up for it on the ESPN website. A subscription to Fubo Sports already includes free access to the ESPN Unlimited streaming service.
