Netflix Financial Overview
Netflix (NASDAQ: NFLX) closed near $82 last week, marking a 36% drop from its 52-week high of $126.71 and a significant 46% decline from its all-time peak in June 2025. The company’s stock reached a 52-week low of $65.08 following disappointing earnings in July, leading to a year-to-date loss of approximately 20% prior to recent recovery.
Revenue growth decreased from 17.6% in Q4 2025 to an expected 11.7% for Q3 2026, with projected revenue at $12.86 billion and EPS of $0.82, slightly below Wall Street expectations. Despite these challenges, Netflix’s advertising tier has gained traction with over 250 million monthly active users, contributing to anticipated ad revenue growth to $3 billion by 2026. The company executed a $25 billion share repurchase program, buying back around $4.7 billion in Q2 2026, indicating management’s confidence in the business.
In Q2, Netflix reported a 33.4% operating margin on revenue of $12.56 billion, with net income rising to $3.40 billion. Analysts forecast earnings growth of 21% to 22% annually over the next three to five years, suggesting that while Netflix may not present an extraordinary buying opportunity, it remains a solid long-term investment with a reasonable valuation.
