Who owns SkyShowtime Limited

SkyShowtime - Profile

SkyShowtime is a subscription video streaming service for Europe, run as a 50/50 joint venture between Comcast and Paramount that was announced in August 2021 and launched in September 2022 in the Nordics before completing its roll out across 22 markets in 2023. Comcast contributes programming from Universal Pictures, DreamWorks Animation, Sky Studios and Peacock, and Paramount contributes Paramount Pictures, Nickelodeon, Showtime and Paramount+ titles, alongside commissioned SkyShowtime Originals. It operates in territories where neither parent already runs a direct to consumer service, covering the Nordics, the Netherlands, Iberia and central and eastern Europe, and had passed nine million subscribers by 2026. Paramount's agreed takeover of Warner Bros. Discovery, whose HBO Max operates in almost all of the same markets, has put the venture's non compete terms and its future structure in question.

The disclosed stakes

One row per position. Where a holder reports the same company in two share classes, both rows are shown rather than summed, because the class is part of a position's identity.

Where each figure comes from

A private stake has no ownership form behind it, so the source is always the holder's own filing or disclosure. Anything modelled says so, with the arithmetic.

• Paramount Skydance Corporation, as of 31 Dec 2025. FY2025 10-K (Investments note): 'Included in Other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets are equity-method investments of $92 million and $99 million at December 31, 2025 (Successor) and December 31, 2024 (Predecessor), respectively... At December 31, 2025 (Successor), our equity-method investments principally included a 50% interest in SkyShowtime, a subscription streaming service in certain European territories, and interests in a production studio and other media joint ventures.' The $92 million balance is a COMBINED figure covering SkyShowtime plus the unnamed production-studio and other media joint ventures, so per the project's rule against assigning a combined balance to one investee, no individual carrying value is assigned to SkyShowtime here; the 50% ownership figure is separately and explicitly disclosed in the same sentence, so pct_of_target is sourced independent of the combined dollar total. The joint venture partner is not named in either the FY2025 10-K or the Q2 2026 10-Q. The Q2 2026 10-Q's Investments note was checked and does not restate or update the $92 million balance or the SkyShowtime percentage; it only refers generically to 'equity method investees' in the related-party section, so the FY2025 10-K (31 Dec 2025) remains the most recent disclosure of this figure despite being an older filing than the Q2 2026 10-Q. source
