Paramount's (NASDAQ:PARA) Q2 Earnings Results: Revenue In Line With Expectations
Multinational media and entertainment corporation Paramount (NASDAQ:PARA) met Wall Street's revenue expectations in Q2 CY2025, but sales were flat year on year at $6.85 billion. Its non-GAAP profit of $0.46 per share was 24.6% above analysts' consensus estimates. Is now the time to buy Paramount? Find out in our full research report. Paramount (PARA) Q2 CY2025 Highlights: Revenue: $6.85 billion vs analyst estimates of $6.86 billion (flat year on year, in line) Adjusted EPS: $0.46 vs analyst estimates of $0.37 (24.6% beat) Adjusted EBITDA: $824 million vs analyst estimates of $749.8 million (12% margin, 9.9% beat) Operating Margin: 5.8%, up from -78.1% in the same quarter last year Free Cash Flow Margin: 1.7%, up from 0.1% in the same quarter last year Market Capitalization: $8.74 billion Company Overview Owner of Spongebob Squarepants and formerly known as ViacomCBS, Paramount Global (NASDAQ:PARA) is a major media conglomerate offering television, film production, and digital content across various global platforms. Revenue Growth A company's long-term sales performance can indicate its overall quality. Even a bad business can shine for one or two quarters, but a top-tier one grows for years. Unfortunately, Paramount's 2.3% annualized revenue growth over the last five years was weak. This was below our standards and is a rough starting point for our analysis. Long-term growth is the most important, but within consumer discretionary, product cycles are short and revenue can be hit-driven due to rapidly changing trends and consumer preferences. Paramount's performance shows it grew in the past but relinquished its gains over the last two years, as its revenue fell by 2% annually. We can better understand the company's revenue dynamics by analyzing its three most important segments: TV Media, Direct-to-Consumer, and Filmed Entertainment, which are 58.6%, 31.5%, and 10.1% of revenue. Over the last two years, Paramount's TV Media revenue (broadcasting) averaged year-on-year declines of 8.1%. On the other hand, its Direct-to-Consumer revenue (streaming) averaged year-on-year growth of 0.8% while its Direct-to-Consumer revenue (streaming) was flat. This quarter, Paramount's $6.85 billion of revenue was flat year on year and in line with Wall Street's estimates. Looking ahead, sell-side analysts expect revenue to decline by 1.7% over the next 12 months, similar to its two-year rate. This projection doesn't excite us and suggests its newer products and services will not accelerate its top-line performance yet. Unless you've been living under a rock, it should be obvious by now that generative AI is going to have a huge impact on how large corporations do business. While Nvidia and AMD are trading close to all-time highs, we prefer a lesser-known (but still profitable) stock benefiting from the rise of AI. Click here to access our free report one of our favorites growth stories. Operating Margin Paramount's operating margin has risen over the last 12 months, but it still averaged negative 5.7% over the last two years. This is due to its large expense base and inefficient cost structure. In Q2, Paramount generated an operating margin profit margin of 5.8%, up 83.9 percentage points year on year. This increase was a welcome development and shows it was more efficient. Earnings Per Share We track the long-term change in earnings per share (EPS) for the same reason as long-term revenue growth. Compared to revenue, however, EPS highlights whether a company's growth is profitable. Sadly for Paramount, its EPS declined by 23.5% annually over the last five years while its revenue grew by 2.3%. This tells us the company became less profitable on a per-share basis as it expanded. In Q2, Paramount reported adjusted EPS at $0.46, down from $0.54 in the same quarter last year. Despite falling year on year, this print easily cleared analysts' estimates. Over the next 12 months, Wall Street expects Paramount's full-year EPS of $1.13 to grow 19.2%. Key Takeaways from Paramount's Q2 Results We enjoyed seeing Paramount beat analysts' EPS expectations this quarter. We were also happy its EBITDA outperformed Wall Street's estimates. On the other hand, its Direct-to-Consumer revenue missed. Overall, we think this was still a solid quarter with some key areas of upside. The stock remained flat at $12.50 immediately following the results. So should you invest in Paramount right now? We think that the latest quarter is just one piece of the longer-term business quality puzzle. Quality, when combined with valuation, can help determine if the stock is a buy. We cover that in our actionable full research report which you can read here, it's free.

Today's Wordle #1504 Hints And Answer For Friday, August 1st
Looking for Thursday's Wordle hints, clues and answer? You can find them here: How To Solve Today's Wordle It's August and it sort of feels like the world is hurtling toward a very bad time. Maybe I should say, A Very Bad Time for emphasis. The AI-apocalypse is upon us, and I'm not sure what that means for me, for the internet as we know, for all sorts of industries. Add to that the general instability in politics and global economics, the various wars, acts of terror and violence and...I'd just really like to travel back in time to the 90s and put a kibosh on the whole thing. Nothing faster than dial-up internet. No smart-phones. Hell, maybe just analog-only when it comes to technology. I don't mean to be all doom and gloom, but I'm genuinely concerned at this point. If AI kills the internet, I'll have to find a new line of work. Not looking forward to starting all over at 44, to be honest. But enough of that. It's 2XP Friday and we have a Wordle to solve. Let's solve it. FEATURED | Frase ByForbes™ Unscramble The Anagram To Reveal The Phrase Pinpoint By Linkedin Guess The Category Queens By Linkedin Crown Each Region Crossclimb By Linkedin Unlock A Trivia Ladder Wordle is a daily word puzzle game where your goal is to guess a hidden five-letter word in six tries or fewer. After each guess, the game gives feedback to help you get closer to the answer: Use these clues to narrow down your guesses. Every day brings a new word, and everyone around the world is trying to solve the same puzzle. Some Wordlers also play Competitive Wordle against friends, family, the Wordle Bot or even against me, your humble narrator. See rules for Competitive Wordle toward the end of this post. Today's Wordle Hints And Answer Wordle Bot's Starting Word: SLATE My Starting Word Today: CHAIR (92 words remaining) The Hint: Stringed instrument. The Clue: This Wordle ends in a vowel. Okay, spoilers below! The answer is coming! . . . Every day I check Wordle Bot to help analyze my guessing game. You can check your Wordles with Wordle Bot right here. CHAIR was a really good starting word, leaving me with just 92 remaining solutions and two yellow boxes. I tried juggling these with ANGEL but that only slashed the solutions down to 27. NASTY wasn't much better, leaving me with 6. Talk about blowing all my luck. MANOR left me with just two, but I only came up with BANJO. Thank goodness. If the answer had been PANKO it would have taken me six tries! The Bot beat me by one point in July. We start over fresh in August, but I'm off to a rough start. I lose 1 point for guessing in 5 and 1 point for losing to the Bot. That's -2 x 2 = -4 points! The Bot gets 1 point for beating me and 0 for guessing in four, for a total of 2 points. Not how I wanted to start things out this month. Erik: -4 points Wordle Bot: 2 points The Bot wins this month, though just barely. On Friday, we'll start over at zero. Oh well. The word "banjo" likely comes from "banja" or "bania", terms used by enslaved Africans in the Caribbean and North America to describe similar stringed instruments of African origin. Its exact linguistic roots are uncertain, but it may derive from a West African language, possibly Mandinka or Kimbundu. The instrument itself evolved in the Americas, blending African design with European influence. The term was first recorded in English in the mid-18th century.
