Netflix

Netflix outperformed expectations in Q2 2025, with revenue climbing about 16% to $11.08 billion and earnings per share of $7.19 beating the $7.08 forecast. The company raised its full‑year top‑line outlook to $44.8–45.2 billion, up from $43.5–44.5 billion, citing a weaker dollar, subscriber additions and stronger ad sales, even as it again withheld detailed membership figures. Operating cash flow surged 84% to $2.4 billion, while free cash flow nearly doubled to $2.3 billion, prompting Netflix to lift its annual free‑cash‑flow projection to $8–8.5 billion. The streaming giant expanded its operating margin to 34.1% in the quarter but warned that higher content and marketing expenses will weigh on profitability in the back half of the year.
