Charter shares drop 5% after wider internet subscriber losses despite $34.5B Cox deal

Charter Communications shares fell 5% after reporting a loss of 233,000 internet subscribers in Q3, including 156,000 from legacy Charter and 77,000 from Cox, which it acquired for $34.5 billion in August. The company now serves 34.3 million internet customers but continues to face pressure from wireless and satellite providers like Starlink. Pay-TV customers also declined by 77,000, though streaming integration has helped slow losses. CEO Chris Winfrey announced plans to cut $2 billion in costs and expects $1 billion in merger synergies, but investors remain cautious amid ongoing subscriber declines and speculation about a potential Charter-Comcast merger.

Charter Communications (CHTR) shares dropped 5.42% to USD 119.03 on Pluang as of Nov 06, 2026 23:51 WIB. The stock's market cap stands at $14.41B with a high sell order activity of 77%. Comcast (CMCSA) also declined 1.80% to USD 24.50, showing mixed sentiment in the media sector amid subscriber losses and merger talks.
