Disney, Comcast, CBS and other traditional media companies are frustrated that investors have given Netflix (domain: netflix.com) a seemingly unfair advantage: the more Netflix spends on content, the more its shares go up. CNBC's Alex Sherman explains how Netflix's strategy is shaking up traditional media companies. CNBC.com video above published Jun 13, 2018.

Netflix, Inc. is a entertainment company, headquartered in Los Gatos, California, founded in 1997 by Reed Hastings and Marc Randolph in Scotts Valley, California. Netflix is reportedly the world's 10th-largest internet company by revenue.

It’s roughly 10x higher (~$207 per quarter per sub at Comcast, ~$19 per quarter per sub at Netflix) ... if the content industry was to let Netflix conquer the entire content-consuming market, the entire content industry would have to live on 1/10th the revenues. That’s not going to happen .... the price difference is anchored on much lower content costs which seem highly unsustainable."

Netflix, Inc. is the world's ninth-largest internet company by revenue. Founded on August 29, 1997, Scotts Valley, CA, by Reed Hastings and Marc Randolph, Netflix is an entertainment company that specializes in and provides streaming media or video-on-demand (VOD) online, as well as still providing its legacy business of DVDs by mail.

When Netflix reports its second quarter earnings, shareholders will closely look at how many subscribers the world’s largest video streaming service was able to add in the U.S. and internationally. According to Netflix, the biggest driver of subscriber additions is the company’s exclusive original content. And, at least according to the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences, the company has been doing a great job with its own TV shows. Netflix has established itself as a household name for quality content:

The Next $300 Billion Company and Why NFL Football & Yahoo Are Losers

Galloway also make his calls on this week's Losers:
  • Loser: the NFL. Audiences have fallen 11%, signaling that the football franchise is no longer immune to the death of television.
  • Loser: Yahoo - yes, again. While the hack isn't their fault, failing to disclose it is.
  • Loser: space travel, which seems like yet another head fake.

0:02  So under the category of don't try this at home,
0:04 I own three stocks: Apple, Amazon and Nike -
0:08 and I'm about to purchase a fourth.
0:10 Here at L2 we've attempted to suss out the underpinnings of the Four Horsemen (Apple, Amazon, Facebook and Google).
0:16 They have great CEOs, visionary capital, they become an operating system for their respective categories, they're seen as good citizens,
0:22 they're a bike ride from a major engineering university, they have vertical distribution and several other factors.
0:28 We've applied those to other companies to try and identify who could be the Fifth Horseman,
0:33 or who could be worth $300 billion-plus.
0:36 Netflix.
0:37 By 2020, Netflix revenue is expected to quintuple to $11 billion with a subscriber base of 60 million in the US.
0:45 Netflix has a real shot at becoming the operating system for the joy and relaxation in our life.
0:50 It could be worth in my view $200-300 billion. I'm buying Netflix.
0:55 The NFL, which for the past decade has remained relatively immune to the death of television,
0:59 has finally fallen.
1:01 What a shocker. A bunch of rich old white dudes putting a bunch of young amazing athletes in uniforms and then telling them to crash into each other so they can have Parkinson's by the time they're 45.
1:11 Audiences for NFL games are down 11%.
1:14 We have seen the beginning of the end.
1:17 A loser - again? Yahoo. I don't think you can fault Yahoo for complying with the law and helping the government scan emails under court order.
1:25 What they can be blamed for is not disclosing what is turning out to be the largest hack in history
1:30 of 500 million email accounts - two years after it happened.
1:35 If they in fact withheld material information from an acquirer, Verizon has every right to demand a reduction in price -
1:41 and supposedly Verizon is. They've asked for a $1 billion discount.
1:44 Yahoo goes back into the marketplace, the private equity guys sharpen their pencils and offer at least $1 billion less. Verizon gets this.
1:52 Yahoo shareholders and the board decided to take their medicine and do a deal that is a fraction of the value this company commanded five to 10 years ago.
2:01 However, the CEO walks away with a quarter of a billion dollars.
2:05 Losers: billionaires engaged in the intergalactic pissing contest.
2:09 I wanted to say sword fighting with their dicks
2:10 but Katherine wouldn't let me.
2:12 Anyway, despite President Obama's recent plans to take innovation beyond the bounds of Earth's orbit,
2:17 we believe space travel is the next big head fake to join 3D printing and virtual reality.
2:23 In September, Mark Zuckerberg's $200 million Amos-6 satellite blew up on Earth.
2:28 Richard Branson and Jeff Bezos are betting big on space tourism with commercial space jets
2:33 and not to be outdone, Larry Page is stuck on microsatellites.
2:36 And the biggest little dick?
2:37 Elon Musk, who is trying to colonize Mars.
2:40 However, what these billionaires don't realize:
2:42 in space no one can hear you scream.

Netflix $NFLX Q3 2016 Earnings Boosted by Surge in International Growth

Netflix Boosted by Surge in New International Members:

Netflix reported Monday its Q3 2016 results, with numbers showing a spike in new members amid rising concerns about the impact of earlier price increases. WSJ.com's Lee Hawkins explains in the video above published by WSJ.com on Oct 17, 2016.

Original Netflix logo 1997 to 2000

Netflix Inc. is a U.S.-based multinational entertainment company, founded August 29, 1997, by Reed Hastings and Marc Randolph. Netflix provides streaming media and video on demand online and DVD by mail.
• Headquarters: Los Gatos, CA
• Stock exchange: symbol | NASDAQ: NFLX
• Principal domain: netflix.com


Q3 Results and Q4 Forecast (source: Netflix Inc.):

Global streaming revenue totaled $2.2 billion, of which 40% was generated abroad. Operating income amounted to $106 million (compared with our $64 million estimate) while net income was $52 million (vs. forecast of $22 million). In Q3, we added 0.4 million members in the US vs. our forecast of 0.3 million and 3.2 million members internationally vs. our forecast of 2.0 million. Our over-performance against forecast (86.7m total streaming members vs. forecast of 85.5m) was driven primarily by stronger than expected acquisition due to excitement around Netflix original content …. For Q4, we forecast 5.2 million global net adds, with 1.45 million net adds in the US and 3.75 million new members internationally. Our expectation for a moderate year-over-year decline in net adds reflects the completion of un-grandfathering. We are pleased with the results thus far as we expect ASP to grow 12% from Q1’16 to Q4’16. Internationally, the initial demand from our launch in Spain, Portugal and Italy in Q4’15 will also affect our year-over-year net adds comparison. We will face a tough international net adds comparison in Q1’17 because of the initial membership surge in Q1’16 tied to the launch of 130 additional territories. As discussed, for the balance of 2016, we will continue to operate around break even, and then start generating material global profits in 2017 and beyond, by marching up operating margins steadily for many years.
