1429 ET - Comcast's Peacock unit turned a profit in the latest quarter, with $189 million in earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization. But Benchmark analysts warn the bottom line momentum may not necessarily be here to stay every quarter. "The first profitable quarter is a milestone, not a guarantee of linear quarterly improvement," the analysts say. They say that while Peacock's annual profitability should rise, quarterly results will likely remain lumpy because sports schedules and content release timing can shift costs and monetization between periods.
