Charter Communications Inc (NASDAQ:CHTR) reported downbeat fiscal third-quarter 2025 results on Friday.

Citigroup's stock price appreciated after it delivered solid second-quarter earnings amidst a volatile macro environment. Warner Bros Discovery's stock price surged by 29% in a single trading session in September – its best day on record – amid reports that it is an acquisition target for Paramount-Skydance. Charter Communications' stock price declined after it reported weak second-quarter earnings.

Oakmark Global Strategy portfolio's return was 4.70% (net) for the reporting period vs. MSCI World Index that returned 7.27% for the same period. Kering (PPRUF), Alibaba Group (BABA) and Alphabet Cl A (GOOG) were the contributors. Charter Communications Cl A (CHTR), Centene (CNC) and Keurig Dr Pepper (KDP) were the detractors.

CHTR posts a 5.4% y/y drop in Q3 EPS and a 0.9% fall in revenues due to weak video and ad sales.

While the top- and bottom-line numbers for Charter (CHTR) give a sense of how the business performed in the quarter ended September 2025, it could be worth looking at how some of its key metrics compare to Wall Street estimates and year-ago values.
