Executive summary

  • Q3 2025 revenues rose 15% year-over-year to $262.5 million, driven by Sphere segment growth and new experiential offerings, while net loss narrowed to $101.2 million from $105.3 million in Q3 2024.

  • MSG Networks revenues declined 12% year-over-year to $88.4 million, mainly due to a 13.5% subscriber decrease and media rights amendments, partially offset by cost reductions.

One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.
