Our differentiated playbook – including a broad content line up, a streaming business model that spans ad-supported and subscription, and a global portfolio that links streaming with theatrical and television – drove strength across our entire ecosystem, including DTC revenue growth of 82% and 6.8 million Paramount+ subscriber additions. Our strategy is working and our execution is strong, as we remain focused on delivering a great experience for consumers and a compelling financial model to our shareholders.

Q1 2022 CONSOLIDATED RESULTS*

• Total company revenue decreased 1%, which included an impact of 6 percentage points from CBS’s broadcast of Super Bowl LV in the year ago period. Excluding the Super Bowl comparison, Q1 revenue grew 5%.

*During 4Q20, Paramount entered into an agreement to sell Simon & Schuster. Simon & Schuster has been presented as a discontinued operation in the company’s consolidated financial statements for all periods. 

DIRECT-TO-CONSUMER

– Subscriber additions were driven by Paramount+, which added 6.8M subscribers in the quarter, bringing Paramount+ total subscribers to almost 40M.

Q1 FINANCIALS
