The streaming business reported a loss per share of $0.27 in the quarter, $0.16 better than the analyst estimate of a $0.43 loss per share. Revenue for the quarter came in at $324.4 million versus the consensus estimate of $303.42 million.
At the time of writing, FuboTV is trading at $1.48 per share, its highest level since March.
Paid subscribers rose to 1.285 million in the quarter, up 22% YoY, while ad revenue of $22.5 million remained flat YoY against continued pressure on the advertising market. Fubo said it expects a reacceleration of growth in the second quarter.
Given the strong paid subscriber growth, Fubo raised its full-year subscriber guidance to between 1.55 million and 1.57 million, representing a potential 8% YoY growth at the midpoint. It sees full-year revenue between $1.24 billion and $1.27 billion.
“We are pleased with Fubo’s execution to start 2023 – beating expectations across our KPIs – and our increased North America guidance for the year reflects our confidence in our continued leadership in streaming,” commented David Gandler, co-founder and CEO of Fubo. “In addition, we remain confident in our path to generate positive cash flow in 2025.”
