Today FuboTV Inc. announced today that it added 275,000 paid subscribers in North America during the third quarter of 2025, ending the period with 1.631 million users under its standalone banner. This growth—the company’s strongest quarterly gain in some time and comes on the heels of a freshly completed merger with Disney’s Hulu + Live TV, catapulting the combined entity to approximately 6 million total subscribers and positioning it as the sixth-largest pay-TV provider in the U.S.
Fubo did lose $18.9 million, though that is an improvement from previous quarters. Fubo also launched a cheaper Fubo Sports package with fewer channels for a lower price than its main package.
This all comes as Comcast and Spectrum have lost TV subscribers in recent years.
“Fubo’s third quarter 2025 results reflect the strength of our execution and the growing demand for flexible, fan-first streaming,” said David Gandler, co-founder and CEO of Fubo. “We delivered record third quarter subscriber growth in North America and our second consecutive quarter of positive Adjusted EBITDA—clear proof our model is working. New offerings like our Fubo Sports skinny service and Pay-Per-View platform are giving consumers more choice and control than ever. And, as we combine with the Hulu + Live TV business, we’re poised to create a next-gen Pay TV company – built for scale, personalization and profitability. We’re energized by what’s ahead and remain focused on delivering value for viewers, shareholders and our programming partners.”
Just last week, on October 29, Disney and Fubo officially closed their blockbuster deal, first announced in January. Disney acquired a 70% stake in the combined live TV streaming services, merging Hulu + Live TV’s roughly 4.37 million subscribers with Fubo’s pre-merger base. The result? A robust 6 million-subscriber powerhouse that retains both brands as “separate and distinct services” for now, allowing Hulu + Live TV to stay bundled with Disney+ and ESPN+, while Fubo continues its sports-centric push. Disney will also be giving Fubo a massive loan in 2026 to help the company keep opertating.
Fubo’s standalone arm now accounts for 1.631 million in North America of those 6 million, a figure that reflects the 275,000 net additions in Q3 alone. That’s a stark contrast to recent history. In Q2 2025, Fubo reported just 1.356 million North American subscribers—a sequential drop of over 100,000 from Q1’s 1.47 million. Year-over-year losses had mounted amid broader industry churn, with rivals like YouTube TV (now over 8 or 10 million strong depending on the source) siphoning market share from cable and other streamers.
