Company Overview

Starz Entertainment, Inc. (NASDAQ: STRZ) is a leading provider of premium subscription video programming, operating across television, streaming and digital platforms. The company develops, produces and acquires original television series and feature films, delivering them through its flagship Starz and Starz Encore branded networks, as well as through its direct-to-consumer streaming service, Starz App. Starz’s content slate spans multiple genres, including drama, comedy and documentary, and features acclaimed titles such as “Power,” “Outlander” and “American Gods.”

Founded in 1994, Starz built its reputation as a pay-TV network offering curated film libraries before expanding into original content in the mid-2000s. In December 2015, media company Lionsgate completed its acquisition of Starz, integrating the network’s programming expertise with Lionsgate’s production and distribution capabilities. In late 2019, Starz was spun off as an independent, publicly traded entity, enabling it to focus strategically on premium content creation and direct consumer relationships.

Through partnerships with cable, satellite and streaming distributors, the company reaches tens of millions of subscribers.
