News summary

Warner Bros. Discovery reported a disappointing second-quarter 2024, with a loss of $4.07 per share, significantly wider than the anticipated loss of 18 cents. Total revenues fell 6.2% year-over-year to $9.71 billion, missing estimates by 3.5%. A major contributor to this decline was a 41% drop in games revenue, primarily attributed to the poor performance of 'Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League', which struggled in comparison to last year's hit, 'Hogwarts Legacy'. The company's studio segment also suffered, with content revenues down 6% and the box office performance of 'Furiosa' disappointing relative to its $168 million budget. A $9.1 billion goodwill impairment charge further exacerbated the financial strain, leading to a 7.8% drop in the company's stock after the announcement. Despite these challenges, Warner Bros. Discovery's long-term growth potential remains a topic of discussion among analysts.
