Filing receipts
“The increase in interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2026 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025 was primarily driven by higher amortization of debt issuance costs, including approximately $85 million recognized in connection with the termination of financing arrangements associated with the WBD transaction.”
“Net cash used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2026 increased $1,268 million as compared to the corresponding period in 2025, primarily due to a net decrease of $614 million in cash flows from maturities, sales and purchases of investments, coupled with net cash outflows for acquisitions for an aggregate amount of $586 million in the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to no acquisition-related cash flows in the corresponding period in 2025.”
“The increase in operating margin was primarily driven by revenue growth outpacing the growth in cost of revenues, partially offset by general and administrative, sales and marketing, and technology and development expenses growing at a faster rate relative to revenue growth.”
