Netflix, Inc. (NFLX) Stock: Slips Despite Q2 Earnings Beat and Raised Forecast
In a surprising move, Netflix, Inc.’s (NFLX) stock has slipped despite the company’s impressive second-quarter earnings report and raised forecast. The streaming giant delivered a strong performance in Q2 2025, as its revenue rose by an astonishing 16% to reach $11.08 billion, surpassing analyst expectations.
The impressive quarter is largely attributed to healthy subscriber growth, higher pricing, and increased ad sales. Moreover, the company has opted not to disclose subscriber numbers anymore, instead shifting focus towards overall revenue and profitability metrics. This strategic shift may be an effort to mitigate concerns over its membership base and potentially stabilize investor sentiment.
However, the stock price dropped after-hours trading due to margin pressure expected later in the year. Netflix warned investors that second-half margins will drop as a result of higher content and marketing expenses. This guidance sparked mild concern among investors, leading to a roughly 1% decline in share price.
