Paramount+ Statistics (2026): Subscribers, Revenue, Streaming Profit Trends & Key Facts

Updated Paramount+ stats for 2026: 77.5M subscribers (Dec 2024) and 79.1M (Sept 2025), plus Paramount’s streaming segment revenue ($7.63B) and improving profitability metrics—sourced from SEC filings and earnings coverage.

Paramount+ statistics (updated 2026): subscribers, DTC revenue, profitability trends

Paramount+ is a subscription streaming service from Paramount Global. It’s the successor to CBS All Access (launched in 2014) and rebranded as Paramount+ in 2021. The service combines on-demand series and movies with live sports and news (availability varies by country), and it draws heavily from brands like CBS, Nickelodeon, MTV, Comedy Central, BET, and Paramount Pictures.

In 2026, the most useful way to track Paramount+ is through two consistent measures: subscriber totals (reported periodically) and Paramount’s Direct-to-Consumer (DTC) segment performance, which includes Paramount+ along with Pluto TV and BET+.

Answer box: Paramount reported 77.5 million Paramount+ subscribers as of December 31, 2024. The service later ended September 2025 with 79.1 million subscribers. On the business side, Paramount’s Direct-to-Consumer segment generated $7.63B in revenue in 2024 and sharply improved profitability versus 2023.

What these trends mean

1) Paramount+ subscriber growth continued into 2025

Paramount reported 77.5M subscribers at the end of 2024. Coverage of the company’s Q3 2025 update puts Paramount+ at 79.1M subscribers by the end of September 2025. That suggests continued growth, even as the streaming market matures.

2) The bigger story is improving streaming economics

Paramount’s Direct-to-Consumer segment (which includes Paramount+) increased revenue to $7.63B in 2024 from $6.74B in 2023. More importantly, DTC profitability improved sharply: the Adjusted OIBDA loss narrowed from ($1.66B) in 2023 to ($497M) in 2024.

3) Pricing power is part of the strategy

Industry reporting tied to Paramount’s 2025 updates indicates Paramount planned a U.S. Paramount+ price increase in early 2026. In streaming, price increases can lift revenue per subscriber—especially when paired with bundles, ad-supported tiers, and higher-value sports/news content.
