HBO makes more moneyâ according to the New York Times it generates âslightly more than $1 billion annually,â compared with about $692 million for Showtime.
HBO is a billion-dollar global business that's the best at what it does and makes money in lots of ways: 1  Primary revenue comes from subscriptions. Because HBO is a premium cable network, cable subscribers always have to pay extra to add HBO to their plan and HBO gets at least half or more of this fee per user. HBO owns 100% of its shows and licenses and syndicates them to other networks and regional markets (over 200 globally), and at a premium price too.
