AMC Networks will release earnings for its first quarter before the opening bell on Friday, May 8. Analysts expect the New York-based company to report quarterly earnings of 21 cents per share. That compares with 52 cents per share in the year-ago period.

The consensus estimate for quarterly revenue stands at $540.32 million, down from $555.23 million last year, according to Benzinga Pro. On March 26, AMC Networks announced the full redemption of its outstanding 10.25% senior secured notes due 2029. The company's shares gained 1.1% on Thursday and closed at $8.56.

Benzinga reported that some of the most accurate analysts have revised their forecasts ahead of the earnings call. The company has faced pressure on both earnings and revenue compared with the prior year. The earnings release will provide details on performance across its television and streaming operations following the debt redemption announced in March.

Investors will examine whether cost measures have offset the year-over-year declines projected by analysts.
