Last year, the company’s affiliate revenue increased 2%, reflecting growth in station affiliation and retransmission fees, as well as subscription streaming revenue, which more than offset declines in pay-TV subscribers. Advertising revenue declined 27% year-over-year, driven by the adverse effects of COVID-19 on global advertising demand, the comparison against the broadcast of the national semifinals and championship games of the NCAA Tournament in the prior year quarter, as well as the cancellation and postponement of professional golf tournaments.
Despite content delays amid the pandemic, domestic streaming and digital video revenue, which includes streaming subscription and digital video advertising revenue increased to $489 million, representing a 25% increase driven by 52% growth in streaming subscription revenue and robust growth in Pluto TV advertising revenue.
