TOKYO, Feb 03 (Pulse News Wire) – WOWOW Inc. (4839.T) reported its subscriber figures for January 2026, showing a net loss of 15,818 subscribers despite strong demand for high-profile programs such as the Australian Open Tennis, UEFA Champions League, and UEFA Europa League.
At month-end, the total net subscriber count stood at 2,196,249. New subscriptions were driven by popular series like “Northern Kenzo’s Water Margin” and special events like the Grammy Awards broadcast. However, cancellations increased due to the end of certain programs.
January saw significant growth in multiple contract sign-ups, totaling 293,508 contracts, and hotel room contracts reached 90,811. Additionally, WOWOW offered discounts on subsequent contracts, reducing monthly fees to ¥2,530 (tax included) from ¥990 (tax included). Looking ahead, WOWOW plans to air several high-demand shows in February, including the latest Mission: Impossible film featuring Tom Cruise and a special Grammy Awards broadcast.
The company will continue to update its subscriber metrics monthly, with the next report scheduled for the second trading day of March.
