Revenue for Sky decreased 2.4% to $5.1 billion in the fourth quarter of 2021. Excluding the impact of currency, revenue decreased 2.5% compared to the prior year period, primarily reflecting lower content revenue and direct-to-consumer revenue. Content revenue decreased 23.4% to $327 million due to a change in sports programming licensing agreements in Italy and Germany. Direct-to-consumer revenue decreased 1.0% to $4.0 billion, primarily reflecting an increase in customer relationships and average revenue per customer relationship in the U.K., offset by a decrease in customer relationships and average revenue per relationship in Italy mainly due to the negative impact of the reduction in Sky's broadcast rights to Serie A. Advertising revenue increased 1.4% to $712 million.

For the twelve months ended December 31, 2021, Sky revenue increased 9.1% to $20.3 billion compared to 2020. Excluding the impact of currency, revenue increased 3.1%, reflecting higher advertising revenue and direct-to-consumer revenue, partially offset by lower content revenue.

Total Customer Relationships increased by 61,000 to 23.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2021, reflecting an increase in customer relationships in the U.K. and Germany, partially offset by the negative impact of the reduction in Sky's broadcast rights to Serie A in Italy. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2021, total customer relationships decreased by 198,000.

Adjusted EBITDA for Sky increased 233.7% to $464 million in the fourth quarter of 2021. Excluding the impact of currency, Adjusted EBITDA increased 187.9% compared to the prior year period, reflecting lower operating expenses, which more than offset lower revenue. The decrease in operating expenses was due to lower programming and production expenses, primarily reflecting lower sports programming costs associated with the reduction in Sky's broadcast rights to Serie A in Italy, partially offset by the timing of sports rights amortization.

For the twelve months ended December 31, 2021, Adjusted EBITDA for Sky increased 20.8% to $2.4 billion compared to 2020. Excluding the impact of currency, Adjusted EBITDA increased 10.2%.

Corporate, Other and Eliminations

Corporate and Other
Corporate and Other primarily relates to corporate operations, Comcast Spectacor, and our new smart TV initiatives, Sky Glass and XClass TV. Revenue for the quarter ended December 31, 2021 was $215 million compared to $44 million in the prior year period. Corporate and Other Adjusted EBITDA loss was $481 million, including losses from Sky Glass and XClass TV during the period, compared to a loss of $939 million in the prior year period which included certain costs in response to COVID-19, including severance charges related to our businesses, which are presented in Corporate and Other.

For the twelve months ended December 31, 2021, Corporate and Other revenue was $461 million compared to $248 million in 2020. Corporate and Other Adjusted EBITDA loss was $1.4 billion compared to a loss of $1.8 billion in 2020 which included certain costs in response to COVID-19, including severance charges related to our businesses, which are presented in Corporate and Other.

Eliminations
Amounts represent eliminations of transactions between Cable Communications, NBCUniversal, Sky and other businesses. Eliminations of transactions between NBCUniversal segments are presented separately. Revenue eliminations for the quarter ended December 31, 2021 were $703 million compared to $680 million in the prior year period, and Adjusted EBITDA eliminations were $21 million compared to $3 million in the prior year period.

For the twelve months ended December 31, 2021 revenue eliminations were $3.0 billion compared to $2.5 billion in 2020, and Adjusted EBITDA eliminations were a loss of $65 million compared to a benefit of $32 million in 2020.

Notes:
1		We define Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EPS as net income attributable to Comcast Corporation and diluted earnings per common share attributable to Comcast Corporation shareholders, respectively, adjusted to exclude the effects of the amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, investments that investors may want to evaluate separately (such as based on fair value) and the impact of certain events, gains, losses or other charges that affect period-over-period comparisons. See Table 5 for reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures.
2		We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income attributable to Comcast Corporation before net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests and redeemable subsidiary preferred stock, income tax expense, investment and other income (loss), net, interest expense, depreciation and amortization expense, and other operating gains and losses (such as impairment charges related to fixed and intangible assets and gains or losses on the sale of long-lived assets), if any. From time to time, we may exclude from Adjusted EBITDA the impact of certain events, gains, losses or other charges (such as significant legal settlements) that affect the period-to-period comparability of our operating performance. See Table 4 for reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measure.
3		All earnings per share amounts are presented on a diluted basis.
4		We define Free Cash Flow as net cash provided by operating activities (as stated in our Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows) reduced by capital expenditures and cash paid for intangible assets. From time to time, we may exclude from Free Cash Flow the impact of certain cash receipts or payments (such as significant legal settlements) that affect period-to-period comparability. Cash payments related to certain capital or intangible assets, such as the construction of Universal Beijing Resort, are presented separately in our Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows and are therefore excluded from capital expenditures and cash paid for intangible assets for Free Cash Flow. See Table 4 for reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measure.
5		From time to time, we may present adjusted information (e.g., Adjusted Revenues) to exclude the impact of certain events, gains, losses or other charges affecting period-to-period comparability of our operating performance. See Table 7 and Table 8 for reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures.
6		In the first quarter of 2021, we updated Cable Communications' total residential customer relationships and broadband customers due to a conforming change to methodology resulting in a reduction of approximately 26,000 customers. There was no impact to net additions and prior periods have been recast on a comparable basis.
7		Adjusted EBITDA is the measure of profit or loss for our segments. From time to time, we may present Adjusted EBITDA for components of our reportable segments, such as Peacock and the wireless business within Cable Communications. We believe these measures are useful to evaluate our financial results and provide a basis of comparison to others, although our definition of Adjusted EBITDA may not be directly comparable to similar measures used by other companies. Adjusted EBITDA for components are generally presented on a consistent basis with the respective segments and include direct revenue and operating costs and expenses attributed to the component operations.
8		Sky constant currency growth rates are calculated by comparing the current period results to the comparative period results in the prior year adjusted to reflect the average exchange rates from the current year period rather than the actual exchange rates in effect during the respective prior year periods. See Table 6 for reconciliation of Sky's constant currency growth.
9		In the first quarter of 2021, we implemented conforming changes in the methodology for counting commercial customer relationships in Italy and Germany, which are now counted on a consistent basis with customers in the United Kingdom. The change resulted in a reduction in Sky’s total customer relationships of 714,000 as of December 31, 2020. The impact of the change in methodology to customer relationship net additions for any period was not material. For comparative purposes, we have recast Sky’s historical total customer relationships to reflect this adjustment.
		Numerical information is presented on a rounded basis using actual amounts. Minor differences in totals and percentage calculations may exist due to rounding.
