Peacock statistics (updated 2026): subscribers, revenue, and losses

Peacock is the streaming service owned by NBCUniversal (a Comcast company). Launched in the U.S. in 2020, Peacock combines on-demand TV and movies with live sports and news options, and it’s typically offered in ad-supported and ad-free tiers (availability and bundle terms vary by market and partner).

Because Peacock is part of Comcast’s “Media” segment reporting, the most reliable way to track Peacock’s growth is through Comcast’s published metrics: paid subscribers, Peacock revenue, and the company’s disclosed profitability measures (such as Adjusted EBITDA loss for Peacock in quarterly results).

Answer box: Peacock ended 2025 with 44 million paid subscribers and reported $5.4B in full-year revenue. In Q4 2025, Peacock generated $1.6B revenue with an Adjusted EBITDA loss of $552M. For comparison, Comcast reported 36M paid subscribers at the end of 2024 and 31M at the end of 2023.

What these numbers mean

1) Paid subscribers are growing, but profitability depends on sports + content costs

Peacock reached 44M paid subscribers at the end of 2025, up from 36M at the end of 2024. However, streaming economics can swing sharply quarter to quarter based on rights (sports), major events, and programming amortization.

2) Revenue is rising meaningfully year over year

Peacock revenue rose from $3.4B (2023) to $4.9B (2024) and then to $5.4B (2025). Comcast notes 2024 included the Paris Olympics, which also affected Peacock revenue and costs.

3) “Paid subscriber” doesn’t always mean “direct paying customer”

Comcast explains that Peacock paid subscribers include both direct-to-consumer subscribers and subscribers obtained through partners and bundles. Depending on the arrangement, a subscriber can be counted when they activate, or when Peacock is made available as part of a bundled offering (based on when related revenue is recognized).
