Netflix Surpasses Analyst Expectations With 9.33 Million New Subscribers In Q1 2024

—

In a remarkable turn of events, Netflix has announced the addition of 9.33 million new subscribers in the first quarter of 2024, surpassing analyst projections. 
This surge in growth is primarily attributed to the success of its original content and strategic measures aimed at curbing password sharing.
The streaming giant experienced robust growth on a global scale, with particularly strong performance noted in the US and Canada.
However, despite this impressive milestone, Netflix shares declined by 4.6% following the announcement, signaling mixed investor sentiment.
In a strategic shift, Netflix revealed plans to discontinue reporting paid quarterly memberships and revenue per subscriber starting from Q1 2025.
This decision has raised concerns among investors, given the company’s exceptional subscriber growth trajectory.
Netflix’s success can be partly attributed to its crackdown on unauthorized account sharing, estimated to have affected over 100 million users. Additionally, the platform’s diverse range of popular series and reality shows continues to attract new subscribers.
With approximately 8% of TV viewing in the US under its belt, Netflix maintains dominance in major media markets worldwide.
Despite its market value exceeding $260 billion, concerns linger regarding its valuation relative to underlying fundamentals.
In response to evolving consumer preferences, Netflix recently introduced a cheaper, ad-supported subscription tier and expanded into live programming, including stand-up specials, wrestling, and live sports events.
