What does Comcast do?

CMCSA · Plain-English company overview

A stock is a share of ownership in a company. Owning one means you own a small piece of that business.

In the company's own words, from Item 1 (Business) of its latest annual report (Form 10-K) filed with the SEC on 2026-02-03.

We are a global media and technology company that reaches customers, viewers and guests worldwide through the connectivity and platforms services we provide and the content and experiences we create. We deliver broadband, wireless, video and voice services primarily under the Xfinity, Comcast Business, Sky and NOW brands; produce, distribute and stream leading entertainment, sports and news through brands including NBC, Telemundo, Universal, Peacock and Sky; and own and operate Universal theme parks.

On January 2, 2026, we completed the previously announced separation of Versant Media Group, Inc. (“Versant”) into an independent, publicly traded company with its Class A common stock listed on The Nasdaq Stock Market under the ticker symbol “VSNT” (the “Separation”). The Versant business is comprised of certain of our former cable television networks, including MS NOW (formerly MSNBC), CNBC, USA Network, Golf Channel, E!, SYFY and Oxygen, and complementary digital platforms, including GolfNow, Fandango, Rotten Tomatoes and SportsEngine.

How did Comcast's latest earnings compare?

An earnings release is a company's quarterly report of how much money it made. Analysts predict these numbers ahead of time, and the actual results are compared against those predictions.

In the most recent quarter (2026-06-30), Comcast reported earnings of $1.04 per share. Analysts expected $0.9956 per share, so the company beat expectations.
