Netflix Shines During Dark Media Times
Portfolio Pulse from Upwallstreet
Netflix Inc (NASDAQ:NFLX) reported better than expected Q2 results, with a profit of $1.8 billion and revenue of $8.3 billion. The company added 5.9 million subscribers, more than double the expected 2 million, bringing its global userbase to 238 million. Netflix's success is attributed to its crackdown on password sharing and the launch of a cheaper advertising tier. The company expects to gain another 6 million subscribers and revenue of $8.5 billion in the next quarter. This contrasts with The Walt Disney Company (NYSE:DIS), Warner Bros. Discovery Inc (NASDAQ:WBD), Paramount Global (NASDAQ:PARA), and Comcast Corporation (NASDAQ:CMCSA) who are facing challenges in their streaming businesses.
