About
Peacock is NBCUniversal's subscription streaming service, which launched nationally in the US on July 15, 2020. It carries entertainment programming and live sports, and Comcast credited the NBA playoffs, the FIFA World Cup and "Love Island USA" for Peacock's growth in the second quarter of 2026. As of June 30, 2026, Peacock had 48 million paid subscribers, up from 41 million a year earlier. In that quarter it posted its first quarterly profit, $189 million, on revenue of about $1.9 billion, up roughly 54%. Peacock offers ad-supported and largely ad-free paid plans, and its advertising revenue rose nearly 70% year over year in the quarter.
