Netflix NASDAQ:NFLX is scheduled to report second-quarter results after the market closes on Thursday, with investors expected to focus on whether expanding advertising revenue and new content releases can help sustain growth.
Analysts expect Netflix to post earnings of $0.79 per share on revenue of about $12.58 billion. The company previously projected second-quarter revenue of roughly $12.57 billion, representing about 13.5% growth from a year earlier, while maintaining its full-year revenue outlook of $50.7 billion to $51.7 billion.
Advertising remains a key area for Netflix NASDAQ:NFLX after its ad-supported tier surpassed 250 million monthly active users worldwide. The company has also said it aims to double advertising revenue to around $3 billion in 2026 and plans to expand the lower-priced service into additional international markets.
Investors are also expected to monitor updates on subscriber trends, advertising monetization and spending on content following the recent departure of co-founder Reed Hastings as chairman. While Wall Street analysts generally remain constructive on Netflix, some continue to watch valuation and subscriber growth closely ahead.
