Madrid — Marking its eighth quarter of consecutive growth in pay TV clients, Movistar Plus, the pay TV/Svod division of Telefonica, Europe’s third-biggest telecom, punched 11,300 net additions in customers from April to June.
The figure is 49% up year-on-year in terms of net adds, and takes Movistar’s total pay TV sub count in Spain to 4,106,100, extending its domination as Spain’s biggest pay TV player.
“These are very good results coming despite the recent launch of multiple new video Ott players in Spain and the end of the soccer season,” said Maria Aguete Rua, Ihs Markit executive director, technology, media & telecom.
“This proves that it’s not only sports that drives pay TV growth in Spain, but also content, movies and series,” she added, noting that eight of the top 10 shows on Movistar Plus’ platform are original series.
