Sky reports rise in revenue and profits amid £26bn bidding war
The owner of Sky News says profits are up 7% in what are likely to be its final annual results as an independent business.
Quote:
Sky has reported a rise in annual revenues, profits and customer numbers, and sought to underline its growth prospects as a £26bn bidding war between two American suitors approaches its conclusion.
The home and mobile entertainment and communications company, which owns Sky News, said that statutory operating profit in the year to June rose by 7% to £1.034bn.
Earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation were up 9% to more than £2.3bn.
Sky plc said that revenue had risen for the 29th consecutive year, with like-for-like revenue up 5% to £13.6bn.

Wouldn't the current rights come to an end after the Super Bowl in February? If so I wouldn't be surprised to learn that the next rights are currently being negotiated. Looking back at when SKY and BBC have signed deals with the NFL it's always been at the end of August / start of September. I'm sure we'll hear something soon.

I'd imagine Sky would want to keep hold of it's current NFL Sunday night 6pm and 9pm games.

Apart from the last 5 year deal which was concluded in September 2014, starting in September 2015, they have all gone to the wire. Maybe we could hear something this year, but it could run into August 2019.
Before that deal we never knew if NFL would be on TV until two or three weeks before the start of the season.
I would imagine Sky will want to keep the rights that they have held for over twenty years.
