Comcast Corp. (ISIN US20030N1019) reported USD 29.30 billion in revenue for the third quarter of 2026, while adjusted earnings per share reached USD 1.07. The results released on October 22, 2026 showed Peacock generating its second consecutive profitable quarter, according to Comcast.
Three quarters show the shift
Comcast's third-quarter revenue fell 6.1 percent from USD 31.20 billion a year earlier, while net income attributable to Comcast rose 3.5 percent to USD 3.45 billion. Adjusted earnings per share declined 4.0 percent from USD 1.12, making the reported USD 1.07 result a mixed operating picture rather than a broad earnings expansion.
The chronology shows the progression. On April 23, 2026, Comcast reported first-quarter revenue of USD 31.46 billion and adjusted earnings per share of USD 0.79. On July 23, 2026, second-quarter revenue was USD 29.94 billion and adjusted earnings per share were USD 1.04. On October 22, 2026, third-quarter revenue was USD 29.30 billion and adjusted earnings per share were USD 1.07, according to CNBC.
What does Peacock mean for growth?
Peacock is the clearest counterweight to pressure in Comcast's connectivity business. The streaming service produced USD 261 million in adjusted EBITDA on USD 1.80 billion in revenue in the third quarter, compared with an adjusted EBITDA loss of USD 217 million in the year-earlier period. Paid subscribers increased 17 percent year over year to 48 million.
The core connectivity figures remain tougher. Domestic broadband residential customers fell by 144,000 in the third quarter, while wireless added 368,000 lines. Comcast also said its proposed NBCUniversal separation remained on track for 2027, a strategic milestone that adds execution risk alongside the streaming improvement.
