Highlights for Fiscal year ending December 31st, 2024.
Revenue has remained even last three years -- $29 to $30 billion. However, whereas in 2022 and 2023 they suffered only a slight loss, in 2024 the business lost $6 billion with $4 billion of that loss from the TV Media business (CBS).
Business breakout as follows for 2024:
Arm Chair Analysis:
The 10-K Report is not easy to read. It's probably not going to encourage people to invest in the company.
I saw ZERO mention of President Trump's $20 billion lawsuit against the company, and yet, the lawsuit was filed in late 2024. I suspect Paramount may have a shareholder lawsuit on its hands for not warning stockholders in this annual report of this significant law suit that could easily put the corporation out of business.
I also see no mention of the FDC which may take away the company's right to broadcast in U.S. network.

Falsifying an annual report can lead to severe penalties, including significant fines, imprisonment, and legal action. Companies and individuals involved can face substantial financial remedies, loss of business, and reputational damage.

The SEC can also obtain orders barring individuals from serving as officers and directors of public companies, as seen in their enforcement results for fiscal year 2023.

Falsifying financial statements can also lead to liability for tax fraud or evasion, potentially leading to further penalties and audits.
Looks likr Paramount may burn to ground like Palisades Park. A stunning reversal for CBS, Water Cronkite's home and a network that 40 years ago had a great reputation.
I checked and even Comcast (NBC's parent) stock is down 50% from its high in 2022. We can speculate that Fake News put all its faith in its anti-Trump crusades and took all the help it could get from Bidung, his auto-pen, and "foreign" aid from the U.S. Sugar Daddy, the fraudulent bureaucrats stealing trillions from We the People.
The chickens have come to roost!
For communists the ends justifies the means. All forms of what is considered moral and ethical behavior are disposable, and usually are, if they interfere with the triumph of communism. I’m sure this individual feels he’s never done anything wrong in promoting the leftist agenda and narrative however possible. I feel certain he will be amply rewarded for his loathsome behavior by the other leftists, and as usual with someone else’s money.
