Comcast reported third-quarter 2026 results for the period ended September 30, 2026, with revenue down 6.1% year over year to $29.3 billion and Adjusted EBITDA down 5.8% to $9.1 billion. GAAP earnings per share rose 7.2% to $0.97, but Adjusted EPS fell 4.0% to $1.07 and free cash flow dropped 14.8% to $4.2 billion, so shareholders see weaker core profitability even as reported net income increased 3.5%.

Net income attributable to Comcast rose 3.5% to $3,448 million, and diluted EPS rose 7.2% to $0.97.
Adjusted EPS fell 4.0% to $1.07, and Connectivity & Platforms Adjusted EBITDA declined 4.4% to $7.6 billion.
Share repurchases remain suspended since the third quarter, and the pause is expected to continue through the proposed separation of the businesses; dividends paid totaled $1.2 billion.
