Supergirl Opens Weakly at $38M, Faces Potential $150M Loss for WBD
WBD has more than doubled off its 52-week low of $10.76.
Summary
Warner Bros. Discovery's 'Supergirl' opened to approximately $38 million, with analysts projecting a potential loss of up to $150 million for the film, which needs $450-500 million to break even. This poor box office performance adds to the company's financial challenges, following a reported $2.9 billion net loss in Q1 2026. While Seaport Global upgraded WBD to Buy, the significant underperformance of a tentpole film is a material concern for the company's core content business.
At the time of this announcement, WBD was trading at $27.10 on NASDAQ in the Trade & Services sector, with a market capitalization of approximately $68B. The 52-week trading range was $10.76 to $30.00. This news item was assessed with negative market sentiment and an importance score of 7 out of 10. Source: Wiseek News.
