The World’s Most Successful
Premium Television Company
With its HBO and Cinemax services, Home Box Oce, Inc. is at
the vanguard of creating and delivering groundbreaking original
programming and hit Hollywood films to consumers worldwide across
a wide range of platforms and oerings.
Home Box Oce is the global leader among all premium
subscription video businesses whether measured by
subscribers, revenue, or profits. That success is built on its
long-standing tradition of being home to the best video
content, including top Hollywood films, acclaimed original
programming, and special events, combined with innovating
ways for viewers to access it. In 2014, HBO saw its highest
domestic subscriber gains in more than three decades.
HBO programming earned 19 Primetime Emmy Awards, the
most of any network for the 13th year in a row. Also, Game
of Thrones became the most-watched HBO original series
ever — surpassing The Sopranos — and True Detective,
which earned five Emmys, was HBO’s most-watched freshman
series ever. Citizenfour and Crisis Hotline: Veterans Press 1
won the 2015 Academy Awards for Documentary Feature
and Documentary Short Subject, respectively. HBO’s sister
channel Cinemax also continued to invest in innovative
original programming, including Steven Soderbergh’s critically
acclaimed drama The Knick.
To maintain the strength of its position, HBO is investing
to increase its content advantage. In 2015, that includes
the return of Game of Thrones, True Detective, VEEP, The
Leftovers, and Silicon Valley, as well as new series including:
Togetherness from Jay and Mark Duplass; Ballers from
producer Mark Wahlberg and starring Dwayne “The Rock”
Johnson; and The Brink, starring Jack Black, Tim Robbins,
and Pablo Schreiber.
Home Box Oce is also expanding its leadership in oering
subscribers more ways to enjoy its great programming through
HBO GO and MAX GO, which give multichannel subscribers
access to its library on demand from a wide variety of devices.
And in April 2015, the stand-alone streaming service HBO
NOW debuted, opening up HBO to a new, untapped audience
in the U.S.
