FuboTV (FUBO [https://seekingalpha.com/symbol/FUBO]) reported a top- and bottom-line beat for the third quarter as the TV streaming platform benefited from strong paid subscriber growth in North America and the launch of its competitively priced sports-focused offering.

"With the addition of Fubo Sports, we now offer consumers a full spectrum of content options at various price points, including our signature Pay TV streaming service, standalone regional sports networks (RSNs), Pay-Per-View (PPV), and the Fubo Sports skinny service," the company said in its shareholder letter.

Net loss from continuing operations for the three months ended September 30 narrowed to $18.9M, or a loss per share of $0.06, compared to a loss of $54.7M, or a $0.17 loss per share, in the same period last year.
