In August, AMC Networks promoted its chief operating and financial officer Christina Spade to CEO and hired former CBS and Goldman Sachs exec Patrick O\u2019Connell as evp and CFO. <\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n    In that interim year, AMC Network has grown subscribers to its portfolio of streaming services \u2014 AMC+, Acorn TV, Shudder, Sundance Now and ALLBLK \u2014 from 7.4 million last June to 10.8 million. (The expectation is that subs will be at 12 million by year end and the plan is to hit 20 million to 25 million by 2025.) <\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n    But the company\u2019s domestic and international linear networks, including AMC and IFC, have been subject to broader cord-cutting concerns that have roiled the TV landscape. In October, the network began airing the last batch of episodes from the final season of flagship <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/watch-movies-tv-seriess\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"8\" title=\"Watch Movies &amp; TV Series\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">series<\/a> <em>The Walking Dead<\/em>, which concludes in November before more spinoff projects launch.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n    Blank was compensated about $7 million for his role as interim CEO, the company disclosed earlier this year. The executive, who spent three decades at Showtime, also sits on the boards of radio giant Cumulus <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/social-mediaa\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"1\" title=\"Social Media\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Media<\/a> and documentary-focused video service Curiosity Stream. <\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n    Also on Thursday, the company disclosed that it entered into a new agreement with its evp and <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/general\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"3\" title=\"General\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">general<\/a> counsel, Jamie Gallagher \u2014 who has been with AMC since 2008 \u2014 through the end of 2025. <\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n    Since the first day of trading this year, AMC Networks\u2019 stock has fallen about 40 percent, to $22.05 a share as of Oct. 20. The company will report its third quarter financial results on Nov. 4.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><script type=\"text\/plain\" class=\"optanon-category-C0004\">\n!function(f, b, e, v, n, t, s) {\nif (f.fbq) return;\nn = f.fbq = function() {n.callMethod ? n.callMethod.apply(n, arguments) : n.queue.push(arguments);};\nif (!f._fbq) f._fbq = n;\nn.push = n;\nn.loaded = !0;\nn.version = '2.0';\nn.queue = [];\nt = b.createElement(e);\nt.async = !0;\nt.src = v;\ns = b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];\ns.parentNode.insertBefore(t, s);\n}(window, document, 'script', 'https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js');\nfbq('init', '352999048212581');\nfbq('track', 'PageView');\n<\/script><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
