DirecTV continues to lose satellite TV subscribers, but its streaming service has grown to nearly 1.5 million subscribers, somewhat cushioning the blow for owner AT&T. More than 312,000 DirecTV Now streaming service customers signed up in the first quarter of the year.

Investors also learned that DirecTV lost 188,000 satellite TV subscribers in the quarter.
