Analyzing Charter Communications’ Strategy for Video Growth
Charter Communications (CHTR) lost net 66,000 residential video subscribers in the third quarter compared to 104,000 net losses in the same period a year earlier. The company’s number of residential video subscribers decreased ~1.6% YoY (year-over-year) to 16.1 million at the end of September 30. This reduction was mainly the result of intense competition from low-cost OTT (over-the-top) video streaming operators.
