Netflix Exceeds Earnings Estimates , As Subscribers Increase.
Netflix Exceeds Earnings Estimates , As Subscribers Increase.
Netflix released a Q1 earnings report on April 18, indicating that its number of subscribers jumped 16% year-over-year to reach 269.6 million.
Analysts only expected the streamer to have about 264.2 million subscribers, CNBC reports. .
The company also brought in $9.37 billion in revenue versus analysts' expectations of $9.28 billion. .
However, Netflix said that its membership numbers are no longer the main factor contributing to the company's growth.
As a result, the company will stop providing "quarterly membership numbers or average revenue per user" beginning in 2025, CNBC reports. .
Instead, it will divulge "major subscriber milestones as we cross them.".
Price hikes, terminating password sharing
and offering an ad-supported tier are all tactics that have boosted revenue.
Netflix is also seeking to gain traction within the video game space and recently partnered with TKO Group Holdings to offer WWE on the platform.
We’re in the very early days of
developing our live programming and
I would look at this as an expansion of
the types of content we offer, the way
we expanded to film and unscripted and
animation and most recently games, Ted Sarandos, co-CEO of Netflix, via earnings call.
We believe that these kind of event cultural
moments like the Jake Paul and Mike Tyson
fight are just that kind of television, and we
want to be part of winning over those
moments with our members as well, so that
for me is the excitement part of this, Ted Sarandos, co-CEO of Netflix, via earnings call.
As of the morning of April 18,
Netflix's stock was up 27%

SEC's New , Climate Disclosure Rules , Facing Multiple Lawsuits.
'Newsweek' reports that both industry and
environmental groups have legally challenged the
Securities and Exchange Commission over new rules. .
The new rules require some businesses to disclose
information about climate risks, including direct
greenhouse gas emissions and risks from extreme weather.
The SEC rules, which were approved on March 6 by a 3-2 vote,
also require companies to provide investors with context
on how those companies plan on managing those risks.
Some requirements were pared back prior to the rules
being approved. Those rules include reporting on Scope 3
emissions which relate to the company's supply chain.
In response to the new rules, two fossil fuel producing
companies filed lawsuits accusing the SEC of burdening
companies and exposing them to potential litigation.
19 state attorney generals have also
filed lawsuits claiming that the new rules
exceed the SEC's legal authority.
On the other side, environmental groups the Sierra Club
Foundation and Earthjustice announced their own lawsuits
accusing the SEC of watering down rules to protect investors.
Sierra Club has millions of members
and supporters who have investments
in the market. It's really critical that
we have access to information about
climate risks that may be faced
by the kinds of entities that
we would hope to invest in, Andres Restrepo, Sierra Club Senior Attorney, via Newsweek.
'Newsweek' reports that the SEC rules were
meant to take effect in 2026, however, the
legal challenges are likely to result in delays.
The new rules come as the U.S. Supreme Court
has indicated plans to restrict the regulatory
authority of environmental enforcement agencies.

Bitcoin Rallies, on Hopes of Renewed Interest , Among Mainstream Investors.
On March 4, the price of Bitcoin broke $65,000,
bringing it closer to returning to an all-time
high reached in November 2021.
NBC reports that the latest rally has been driven
by hopes that the launch of bitcoin exchange-
traded funds will expand bitcoin's pool of buyers. .
In 2024, the cryptocurrency has
gained over 48%, rapidly approaching its
record intra-day all-time high of over $68,000.
In January, Bitcoin ETFs were first approved by
the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). .
The SEC said the approval of the ETFs were meant
to make it easier for investors to gain exposure to
Bitcoin without having to actually own the digital coins.
NBC reports that the world of crypto is also banking
on a potential rally following a technical event
known as "halving" scheduled to occur in April.
This event will see the rate of supply for new bitcoin
to decline, which could cause the value of the
cryptocurrency to increase if demand remains unchanged.
Some mainstream investment experts have
still urged caution when it comes to investing
in the controversial cryptocurrency.
With equities, you own a share
of a company that produces goods
or services, and many also pay
dividends. With bonds, you get
a stream of interest payments, Vanguard statement, via NBC.
Commodities are real assets that meet
consumption needs, have inflation-
hedging properties, and can play
a role in certain portfolios, Vanguard statement, via NBC.
While crypto has been classified
as a commodity, it’s an immature
asset class that has little history,
no inherent economic value,
no cash flow, and can create
havoc within a portfolio, Vanguard statement, via NBC
