FuboTV stock gets “top marks” in Q3 earnings screen — but FUBO is still stuck near $2.70

FuboTV stock gets “top marks” in Q3 earnings screen — but FUBO is still stuck near $2.70

NEW YORK, Jan 17, 2026, 21:24 (EST) FuboTV Inc shares ended Friday at $2.67, buoyed by a StockStory earnings screen that ranked the sports-centric streaming service among the best performers for the September-quarter reporting season. The call-out matters because Fubo beat revenue and profitability forecasts in that quarter, yet shares are still down about 29% since it reported. That disconnect has kept the stock in the “cheap, but why?” bucket for months. Debt plays a key role in the timing. Fubo faces convertible notes maturing in February—bonds that can convert into shares—and the company has acted early to prevent that

FuboTV stock pops after $140.2 million 2026 note buyback eases debt crunch

New York, January 14, 2026, 16:05 EST FuboTV repurchased $140.2 million of its 3.25% Convertible Senior Notes due 2026, using cash to retire debt maturing next month. (FinancialContent) This move is significant since the notes will mature on Feb. 15, 2026. Investors had pegged that date as a key near-term pressure point for a streaming business still struggling to achieve profitable growth. Fubo said it funded the repurchase using proceeds from a $145 million term loan tied to its 2025 business combination with Hulu + Live TV. Convertible notes, which can be swapped for shares under specific terms, were paid
