The Road Ahead

The ARM (average revenue per member) was lower in India and higher in Korea and Australia. Netflix's co-chief executive officer, Reed Hastings, said they were done with decreasing profits and are back to growth. He mentioned that Netflix focuses on marketing, content, lowering ad-supported model prices, etc. Netflix clocked $7.9 billion in the September quarter and is expected to hit $7.8 billion in revenue in the next quarter. Hastings added that the decline in revenue was due to the increase in the Dollar's strength compared to other currencies worldwide.
