Segment Reporting [Abstract] |
Segment Information | Segment Information The Company’s reportable segments have been determined based on the distinct nature of their operations, the Company's internal management structure, and the financial information that is evaluated regularly by the Company's chief operating decision maker ("CODM") in deciding how to allocate resources to an individual segment and in assessing performance. Our Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") is the CODM. As described in Note 1, as of June 30, 2025, the Company has one reportable segment: Starz Networks, which includes our operations in the U.S. and Canada. The continuing operations outside the U.S. and Canada, which through March 31, 2025 included operations in India and Southeast Asia, is reported as International and is disclosed to provide a reconciliation of segment amounts to amounts appearing in the accompanying financial statements. As described in Note 1, Description of Business, Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies, and effective April 1, 2025, we transferred our operations in India and Southeast Asia to New Lionsgate. Segment information is presented in the table below:
