Netflix Inc. Earnings: 3 Things to Watch
Netflix (NASDAQ: NFLX) will announce its second-quarter earnings results after the market closes on Monday, July 17. Here are a few big trends for investors to know heading into the report.
In their quarterly letter to shareholders, CEO Reed Hastings and his team give projections that amount to their best guess about where subscriber growth and operating profit will land for the next quarter. The latest forecast calls for membership gains to soar to 3.2 million from 1.7 million a year ago as operating margin rises by a full percentage point to 4.4% of sales.
Investors shouldn't spend much time on these exact numbers since they're sensitive to temporary factors. This quarter's subscriber figures will benefit from the fact that the House of Cards premier was shifted to the second quarter of 2017 from the first quarter of the prior year.
