Despite initial skepticism that Netflix was a disruptive force, Netflix has maintained its dominance in streaming for over a decade. Even media giants like Disney are re-evaluating their streaming strategies in the face of Netflix’s dominance. As the streaming giant announces its quarterly earnings, important information about its financial health will also emerge.
Points worth listening to:
The success of Netflix’s advertising model:
Netflix, which previously focused on advertising, now has a “Basic with Ads” subscription package, a cheaper option at $6.99 monthly. With over 23 million monthly users, the number of users choosing this level is growing. Analysts are keen to assess the impact of this change on Netflix’s overall growth.
Differentiation and testing:
Facing business issues like protests and disruptions, Netflix invested in live streaming and video games. Fourth-quarter results will show the success of commercials like “Netflix Cup” and the acquisition of exclusive rights to “WWE Raw.” Additionally, Netflix’s video game expansion aims to attract new customers, but the question remains whether these investments will turn into revenue.
Primary Operations:
With the departure of Netflix World Movies President Scott Stuber in March, the company’s primary operations strategy is being reviewed. Data shows that the release of the first content has been delayed since 2022, which could be detrimental to the platform’s audience. The report will reveal whether this trend will continue in 2024 and how this will affect Netflix’s position in the competitive streaming space.
Netflix’s quarterly earnings report is eagerly awaited, which will evaluate the continued importance of Netflix and the success of its advertising model, the results of its test operation, and the plan of its first campaign for next year.
