Netflix Reports Q2 Revenue Growth but Q3 Forecast Falls Short of Expectations
Netflix's second-quarter earnings report showed a 14% year-over-year revenue increase to about $13 billion and a projected rise in earnings per share to 79 cents. However, the company forecasted third-quarter revenue and earnings below Wall Street expectations, with $12.86 billion in revenue and 82 cents EPS projected. Netflix plans to reduce the frequency of viewing-hours reports and focus on advertising, live events, and video games for growth. Shares declined following the forecast amid ongoing concerns about sustaining subscriber growth.
