*Comcast returned $16B+ to shareholders in FY2023 (buybacks + dividends). FCF generation is among the strongest of any US media company.*

#### Key Ratios (approximate)
- P/E: ~9x (adj. FY2024) | EV/EBITDA: ~7x | FCF Yield: ~9%
- Revenue Growth: ~2% annually | Adj. EPS Growth: ~5–7% annually

#### Growth Profile
Comcast is a cash flow machine: $13B+ annual FCF with a ~9% FCF yield at current prices — deeply discounted vs. media peers. Revenue growth is modest (~2%) as broadband subscriber losses (1M+ net lost in 2025) and legacy cable TV decline offset broadband ARPU increases and theme park/Peacock growth. The Epic Universe theme park opening (May 2025) drove park revenue +19% in Q2 2025. Peacock losses are narrowing toward profitability. The Versant spin (cable networks) will free Comcast to focus capital on broadband and high-growth assets.

#### Forward Estimates
- FY2025/2026: Adj. EPS growth ~5–7%; FCF $13B+
- Broadband: ARPU growth offsetting subscriber losses; DOCSIS 4.0 competitive advantage vs. fiber
- Peacock: 41M paid subs; NBA deal (Oct 2025) drives engagement; path to profitability in FY2026
- Theme parks: Epic Universe driving significant FY2026 uplift; ~19% park revenue growth in Q2 2025
- Versant SpinCo: Separation expected within 12 months of Nov 2024 announcement
- Xfinity Mobile: 378K new wireless customers per quarter (Q2 2025); growing ARPU contributor
