Revenues came in at $306.9 million, down 7.2% year over year, and marginally missed the consensus mark of $307 million by 0.12%. Sequentially, total revenues declined approximately 5%.
STRZ’s Q1 Revenue Breakdown
OTT revenues reached $211.1 million (68.8% of total revenues), down 6.4% from $225.5 million in the year-ago quarter, reflecting ongoing pressure across the direct-to-consumer and wholesale streaming landscape. Even so, management highlighted sequential improvement.

Linear and other revenues came in at $95.8 million (31.2% of total revenues), down 8.8% from $105.1 million.
STRZ’s Operating Performance
Operating loss was $152.8 million, compared with $142.3 million in the prior-year quarter, reflecting the combined effect of lower revenues and heavier cost items.
Adjusted OIBDA was $58.0 million, down from $93.3 million in the year-ago quarter, while still improving sequentially from $55.5 million.
On a trailing 12-month basis, adjusted OIBDA totaled $168.7 million, translating into an adjusted OIBDA leverage ratio of 3.1x at quarter-end.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $73.2 million in the first quarter of 2026. Equity-free cash flow was $68.7 million.
Unlevered free cash flow was $80.7 million, supported by the stronger operating cash result and provides a cleaner view of underlying liquidity as the company works to reduce leverage.
STRZ’s 2026 Outlook
For 2026, Starz Entertainment reiterated its previously provided outlook targets, including positive year-over-year OTT revenue growth and low-single-digit year-over-year adjusted OIBDA growth. The company continues to expect unlevered free cash flow of $80 million to $120 million and an adjusted OIBDA leverage ratio exiting 2026 at approximately 2.7x.

- Expedia Group Q1 Earnings & Revenues Beat Estimates, Both Increase Y/Y
May 8, 2026
Expedia Group EXPE reported first-quarter 2026 adjusted earnings of $1.96 per share, up 386% year over year, and surpassed the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 39.01%.
Revenues rose 15% from the year-ago quarter to $3.43 billion and beat the consensus mark by 2.47%. Management highlighted that results exceeded the company’s outlook.
Expedia Group’s Segment Mix Tilts to B2B Strength
By segment, B2B remained the primary growth engine. B2B gross bookings grew 22% year over year to $10.75 billion, outpacing B2C gross bookings growth of 10% to $24.78 billion. The differential suggests Expedia Group’s partner-facing business continued to scale faster than its consumer segment.
Expedia Group, Inc. Price, Consensus and EPS SurpriseExpedia Group, Inc. Price, Consensus and EPS Surprise
Expedia Group, Inc. price-consensus-eps-surprise-chart | Expedia Group, Inc. Quote
That mix also showed up in revenue performance. B2B revenues rose 25% year over year to $1.18 billion, while B2C revenues increased 8% to $2.12 billion.
Within advertising and media, Expedia Group's advertising revenues rose 13% to $197 million, and trivago’s advertising revenues jumped 47% to $125 million, adding a higher-growth layer to the overall revenue profile.

Lodging gross bookings climbed 13% to $25.98 billion, while non-lodging gross bookings also improved 13% to $9.55 billion, indicating healthy demand across the platform’s key travel products.
Pricing trends were supportive as well. Average daily rate booked rose 7% year over year to $228.10, and booked air tickets increased 6% to 15.7 million, helping round out a quarter that featured gains across multiple demand indicators.
Momentum in core travel demand remained intact, with booked room nights increasing 6% year over year to 113.9 million.
EXPE’s Q1 Operating Details
Profitability improved sharply in the quarter. Operating income swung to $251 million from an operating loss of $70 million in the year-ago period, supported by expense leverage and better operating efficiency.
On an adjusted basis, EBITDA increased 83% year over year to $542 million, and adjusted EBITDA margin expanded 591 basis points to 15.8%.
Direct sales and marketing expenses were $1.86 billion, representing 54.2% of revenues, up 6% year over year. However, B2C direct marketing expenses declined 7% year over year to $1.04 billion and leveraged 75 bps as a percentage of B2C gross bookings to 4.2% from 4.9%.
Overhead expenses were $627 million, representing 18.3% of revenues, up 4% year over year, while leveraging 190 bps as a percentage of revenues from 20.2% in the prior-year quarter.
Adjusted cost of revenues was $373 million, up 5% year over year, representing 10.9% of revenues, leveraging 98 bps year over year.

Long-term debt was unchanged at $4.47 billion as of March 31, 2026, compared with Dec. 31, 2025.
Cash generation was another bright spot. Net cash provided by operating activities increased 33% year over year to $3.93 billion, reflecting the company’s improved operating performance and favorable working-capital dynamics typical of the travel marketplace model.
Free cash flow climbed 36% year over year to $3.75 billion after $184 million of capital expenditures.
Capital returns accelerated. Expedia Group repurchased roughly 3.3 million shares for $700 million in the quarter and announced a new $5 billion share repurchase authorization. The board also declared a quarterly cash dividend of 48 cents per share.
EXPE’s Q2 & 2026 Guidance
Looking ahead, EXPE maintained its full-year 2026 framework while providing a solid second-quarter outlook.
The company expects gross bookings to be in the range of $32.5-$33.1 billion for the second quarter of 2026, representing growth of 7-9% year over year.

- Covista Q3 Earnings & Revenues Beat Estimates on Enrollment Growth
May 8, 2026
Covista Inc. CVSA posted better-than-expected third-quarter fiscal 2026 results, with adjusted earnings and revenues topping the Zacks Consensus Estimate and increasing year over year.
Revenue growth reflected contributions from multiple institutions and continued scale in the company’s education platform. Management framed the quarter as progress under its strategy focused on expanding access to healthcare careers and meeting persistent workforce shortages.
The company also noted that enrollment momentum held up against tougher prior-year comparisons, supported by deeper student persistence initiatives. That dynamic matters because persistence can help stabilize revenues over time as students progress through programs.
Covsita’s Q3 Highlights
Adjusted earnings were $1.98 per share, up 3.1% year over year and 14.5% above the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $1.73 per share.
The quarterly revenues of $487 million increased 4.5% year over year and came in 1.9% ahead of the consensus mark of $478 million.
Covista Inc. Price, Consensus and EPS SurpriseCovista Inc. Price, Consensus and EPS Surprise
Covista Inc. price-consensus-eps-surprise-chart | Covista Inc. Quote
Operating momentum was underpinned by steady demand across the portfolio, with total student enrollment rising 6.8% year over year to 100,585, marking the 11th straight quarter of growth.
On profitability, adjusted EBITDA was $127.9 million, essentially flat year over year, while adjusted EBITDA margin was 26.3%, down from 27.4% a year ago. The company attributed the year-over-year margin pressure to a mix of operating efficiencies and investments, alongside calendar-related timing at Walden.
CVSA Segment Results Show Broad Strength
Chamberlain delivered revenues of $197 million, up 2.3% year over year, with total students of 40,767, up 0.5%. Adjusted operating income inched up 0.8% to $47.9 million year over year.
Walden generated revenues of $186.6 million, up 4.6%, and total students increased 12.3% to 54,474. Adjusted operating income declined 11.7% year over year to $42.4 million. Walden’s quarter included the impact of a one-week academic calendar shift that moved revenue recognition into the prior quarter, affecting the reported year-over-year comparison for that institution.
Medical and Veterinary remained the fastest-growing segment on the revenue line, producing $103.5 million, up 8.9% from the year-ago period. Total students in the segment rose 4.1% to 5,344, reflecting growth in both medical and veterinary programs. Adjusted operating income grew 20% to $21.5 million year over year.
Story Continues
Covista Steps Up Buybacks and Debt Actions
Capital allocation stayed active in the quarter. Covista repurchased $66 million of shares and reported $662 million remaining under its $750 million authorization, keeping buybacks a central lever in its shareholder return framework.
Management reported net leverage of 0.7x as of March 31, 2026, underscoring a conservative leverage position alongside ongoing repurchases.
Adjusted free cash flow as of the fiscal third quarter was $336.5 million, up from $287.2 million in the year-ago period.
Covista Expands Programs and Workforce Ties
Operationally, Covista highlighted expansion initiatives across institutions. Chamberlain continues to advance its campus growth plan, with two new campuses expected to start classes in the first half of fiscal 2027 after receiving full regulatory approval.
The company also emphasized steps to broaden program offerings and strengthen workforce alignment. Walden received approval for seven new programs, while Covista launched healthcare-specific AI professional certificates across its institutions, with more than 4,000 learners enrolled to date, reflecting demand for AI fluency in health professions.
CVSA Lifts Fiscal 2026 Outlook
Encouraged by execution, CVSA raised its fiscal 2026 revenue guidance to $1.93-$1.945 billion (up 8-9% year over year) from the prior $1.90-$1.94 billion (up 6-8.5% year over year) range. The updated view implies management sees sustained demand and operational follow-through as the year closes.
The company also increased adjusted EPS guidance to $7.95-$8.15 (19-22% year-over-year growth) from $7.80-$8.00 (17-20% year-over-year growth) previously. The upward revision suggests confidence that core operating momentum can offset ongoing investments and timing-related noise.
