According to expert analyses by Traling, Netflix managed to surpass its revenue from the same period last year by a significant 8.6 percent, reaching $7.97 billion in the April-June period, while keeping its subscriber churn rate well below feared levels. However, the company fell short of analyst expectations.
Analysts had projected Netflix’s revenue to be $8.04 billion, but the company slightly missed the mark. When excluding the impact of currency fluctuations, revenues actually grew by 13 percent. In the second quarter, Netflix reported a net income of $1.4 billion, operating income of $1.6 billion, and earnings per share of $3.20, exceeding Wall Street expectations of $2.94 per share.
During the April-June period, when Netflix anticipated losing around 2 million subscribers, the actual loss was 1 million subscribers. The company saw a loss of 1.3 million subscribers in the United States and Canada, 770,000 in Europe, the Middle East, and Africa, but gained 1.1 million subscribers in the Asia-Pacific region.
For the July-September period, Netflix aims to add 1 million subscribers, while analysts predict an increase of 1.84 million subscribers.
