For AT&T’s Warner Media operations, analysts expect the combination of return to sports and added expense associated with HBO Max to affect bottom line.
In the Entertainment segment, cord-cutting and programming costs are pressuring profitability.

We expect industry wide video subscriber losses to be modestly worse, which drives our Turner subscription estimates lower.
