Adjusted OIBDA saw a significant rise of 80% to $987 million, and adjusted net earnings from continuing operations attributable to Paramount surged 489% to $424 million, with adjusted diluted EPS from continuing operations at $.62, up from $.09. The company's financial performance was affected by programming and restructuring charges, as well as a global advertising market weakness. Paramount's business development was marked by the establishment of an Office of the CEO and the stepping down of Robert M. Bakish as President and CEO. The company's future plans include a focus on content with mass global appeal, rationalizing original content on streaming services, and improving linear network programming efficiency.
