UFC revenue jumps 60% YoY, lifting TKO Group Q3 earnings above expectations despite WWE dip

TKO Group Holdings reported a 60% year-over-year revenue increase for UFC, reaching $519.2 million, driven by a $132.3 million rise in media rights and additional live events. This growth helped TKO beat earnings per share estimates with $1.33 versus the $1.10 consensus. However, WWE revenue fell 1% due to fewer live events and lower ticket sales. TKO raised its full-year revenue guidance to $5.79-$5.83 billion, citing strong media rights deals and positive trends in live sports consumption.

As of Nov 05, 2026 04:21 WIB, TKO Group Holdings shares are trading at USD 193.38 on Pluang, up 3.30% for the day with a market cap of $13.69 billion. Despite strong revenue growth and raised guidance reported by TKO, Pluang order activity shows 100% sell interest. The stock's dividend yield stands at 1.69%, reflecting ongoing investor returns in the media sector.
