Lionsgate forecasts “significant growth over next 2 quarters”
November 6, 2025
Lionsgate has reported second quarter revenue of $475.1 million, operating loss of $46 million and net loss from continuing operations attributable to shareholders of $111.9 million or $0.39 diluted loss per share on 289.2 million diluted weighted average common shares outstanding. Adjusted net loss from continuing operations attributable to shareholders in the quarter was $56.9 million or $0.20 adjusted diluted loss per share on 289.2 million diluted weighted average common shares outstanding. Adjusted OIBDA was $14.1 million in the quarter.
“We reported a quarter in line with our financial expectations with all signs pointing to significant growth over the next two quarters and through fiscal 2027,” said Lionsgate CEO Jon Feltheimer. “During the quarter we readied a film slate primed to deliver strong growth over the next 18 months, refilled our television pipeline with key series renewals and breakout new shows, and reported $1 billion in trailing 12-month library revenue, a record performance that highlights our entire portfolio of intellectual property.”
Trailing 12-month library revenue increased 13% from the prior-year quarter to a record $1 billion, marking the 4th consecutive quarter of record trailing 12-month library revenue.
Backlog, which represents contractual commitments for future revenues not yet recorded, grew 31% sequentially to nearly $1.6 billion.
Second Quarter Segment Results
Motion Picture segment revenue of $276.4 million decreased due to a difficult comparison with last year, which had five wide theatrical releases compared to two wide theatrical releases in this quarter. Segment profit of $30.5 million was up significantly due to favorable comparisons with the prior year quarter’s slate.
Television Production segment revenue of $198.7 million and segment profit of $12.5 million reflects the timing of episodic deliveries, some of which pushed into the second half of the fiscal year.
