Jeff Shell, Chief Executive Officer of NBCUniversal, has mutually agreed with Comcast that he will depart effective immediately following an investigation led by an outside counsel into a complaint of inappropriate conduct.

NBCUniversal profits grew in the second quarter despite larger losses at direct-to-consumer streaming service Peacock. The platform lost $467 million in the quarter, more than the $363 million it last a year ago.

Since its debut in April 2020, NBCUniversal’s streaming service Peacock has reached 54 million total signups, and it has generated more than 20 million monthly active users during the last quarter.

The international deal-making move, consisting of mergers and acquisitions, including Roku, derived from AT&T’s Warner Media Divison’s recent merger with Discovery, as well as a spike in streaming success and demand across the globe.

Brian Roberts, Chief Executive Officer of Comcast, is exploring new options for the company’s push into streaming, raising the idea of a possible tie-up with ViacomCBS or the acquisition of Roku, according to a report from The Wall Street Journal.
