Bee Movie also helped with a gross of $38 million although the figure was below expectations of $40-45 million. These two films […]

These figures were at the high end of analyst estimates with the Cable and Media segments providing material upside to EBITDA. EBITDA and profit margins at wireless were a little lower than expected but […]
