This is the best summary I could come up with:


Dish Network lost about 64,000 net pay TV subscribers in the third quarter, compared with a gain of 30,000 in the year-ago period and a decline of 294,000 in the second quarter of the year.

The company disclosed in a regulatory filing early on Monday that it added around 117,000 Sling TV subscribers in the latest quarter, ending September with 2.12 million Sling TV subs.

“The decrease in net Sling TV subscriber additions was primarily related to lower Sling TV subscriber activations and higher Sling TV subscriber disconnects in 2023,” the company, led by president and CEO W. Erik Carlson and chairman Charlie Ergen, said in a regulatory filing.

We continue to experience increased competition, including competition from other subscription video-on-demand and live-linear OTT service providers, many of which are providers of our content and offer football and other seasonal sports programming direct to subscribers on an a la carte basis.”

“This decrease in net Dish TV subscriber losses primarily resulted from lower Dish TV subscriber disconnects in 2023, partially offset by lower gross new Dish TV subscriber activations,” the company’s filing explained.

Dish’s stock dropped more than 8 percent in Monday pre-market trading.
