From NETFLIX INC's FY2025 10-K, filed Jan 23, 2026 · read the filing
NETFLIX makes and distributes film and video. It took in $45.18B last year, which makes it a large company. Of every dollar it sells, about 24 cents is left as profit.
The financial picture is led by profitability, growth and debt.
A conclusion from the filings, not a recommendation. Detailed figures and supporting evidence appear in their dedicated sections below.

Changed: +56.6%
$439.5M to $688.2MCritical
Why it matters: Neither good nor bad on its own. Heavy spending is a company building capacity or a company struggling to stand still, and the two look identical in this figure.
How the latest move compares (quote live), and what was published around it
NFLX rose 3.09% on the latest quote. The average Communication Services company tracked here moved +5.22%, and the S&P 500 −1.04%. That is 2.1 points below its sector and 4.1 points above the market.
Expectations
Not from the filings — what other people are betting on, and what the price already assumes.
The growth rate someone buying today is paying for, against what the company has delivered
At today's price, the market is paying for free cash flow to grow by about 11% a year for the next 10 years. Over the last 5 years it grew by about 37% a year.
The essentials
Each answered from the filings, with the numbers behind it.
Yes. It keeps about 24 cents of every dollar of sales as profit, earning $10.98B last year.
Yes, quickly. Sales grew 15.9% last year.
No. Its borrowings would take under a year of cash flow to clear. For every $1 it owes, it owns $1.92 in assets.
Core operating and valuation reference metrics
Income
This company pays no dividend. It keeps its profits and reinvests them in the business instead, so any return would have to come from the share price.
Figures from the FY2025 annual filing
Last year it earned $10.98B and generated $10.15B of cash from operations.

Every figure above traces back to a filing in the timeline, each linked to the document itself.
The 9 subsidiaries named in its 10-K, incorporated across 8 places. A filer lists the significant ones and may leave the rest out, so this is the floor rather than the full count.
Every company's figures are checked for internal consistency: the balance sheet adding up, figures sharing one currency, cash flow and share counts within plausible ranges, and how recent the latest annual report is. Nothing here changes a figure.
Financial figures are from NFLX's 10-K for fiscal year 2025 (period ending 2025-12-31, filed Jan 23, 2026), reported under the US GAAP taxonomy. View the source filing.
3 of 4 scored areas had enough reported figures to judge
The score averages profitability, growth, debt and accounting. Accounting had too few reported figures and is left out of the average rather than counted as a weakness, so a company is never marked down for a figure it did not publish. Cash generation is shown for context and already feeds profitability. Valuation is scored separately, because a share price says nothing about whether the business is sound. 9 of the 9 Piotroski checks could be evaluated. How the score works
Each year scored only from its annual report as it was first filed
| Fiscal year | Health | F-Score | Scored from |
|---|---|---|---|
| FY2025 | 10.0 | 7/9 | 10-K, filed Jan 23, 2026 |
| FY2024 | 10.0 | 8/9 | 10-K, filed Jan 27, 2025 |
| FY2023 | 8.7 | 8/9 | 10-K, filed Jan 26, 2024 |
| FY2022 | 7.3 | 5/9 | 10-K, filed Jan 26, 2023 |
| FY2021 | 6.0 | 7/9 | 10-K, filed Jan 27, 2022 |
| FY2020 | 8.7 | 8/9 | 10-K, filed Jan 28, 2021 |
A later restatement never reaches back into an earlier year, and every year is scored without a share price, so the latest point can differ a little from the headline score, which uses today's price.

Every figure above comes from the FY2025 filing as filed with the SEC.
Improved: +15.9%
$39.00B to $45.18BSignificant
Why it matters: Sales are what everything else is built on. A fall can be lost customers, lower prices, or a business the company sold — the filing itself says which.
Improved: +22.0%
$17.96B to $21.91BSignificant
Why it matters: What is left of sales after the direct cost of producing them. It normally moves with revenue, so a move out of step with revenue is the part worth noticing.
Improved: +27.9%
$10.42B to $13.33BSignificant
Why it matters: Profit from running the business, before interest and tax. Less exposed than profit to one-off financing and tax items, so a clearer read on the business itself.
Improved: +26.1%
$8.71B to $10.98BSignificant
Why it matters: Profit swings far more than sales do, and one-off items — a legal settlement, a tax charge, an asset sale — move it without the underlying business changing.
Improved: +36.7%
$6.92B to $9.46BSignificant
Why it matters: Cash left after paying for the plant that produced it — the money genuinely available for dividends, buybacks or paying down debt. Harder to flatter than profit.
Improved: +27.7%
$2.04 to $2.60Significant
Why it matters: Profit divided by the shares in issue at the period end, so it sits close to but not on the company's own reported figure. It can rise with no growth in profit when the company buys back stock — read it beside the share count.
Improved: +15.7%
$7.80B to $9.03BSignificant
Why it matters: A falling cash pile is only a warning if the company is consuming it. Paying down debt, buying back stock and paying a dividend all reduce cash by choice.
Improved: +2.4 pts
46.1% to 48.5%Notable
Why it matters: What survives each sale before overheads. Falling gross margin usually means the company is discounting or its input costs rose — it is the earliest place pricing pressure shows.
Improved: +2.8 pts
26.7% to 29.5%Notable
Why it matters: What survives each sale after running the business. A falling operating margin beside a steady gross margin points at overheads — wages, marketing, research — rather than pricing.

Why it matters: What survives to the very end of each sale. Worth reading beside revenue: growing sales on a shrinking margin means the company is buying its growth.

Why it matters: The company bought back stock, so each remaining holding owns slightly more of it. Worth checking it was not funded by borrowing.

1 other measure barely moved. Figures compare the two most recent annual filings — read the latest one. Moves are graded on fixed lines — 5%, 15% and 40% for amounts, and 1, 3 and 8 points for margins — as notable, significant or critical. Nothing here reads the management commentary, which is where a company explains its own numbers.
These coincide with the move in time. None is presented as its cause: a price can move on news that names no company, on the wider market, or on trading that no document records.

Discounted at 8%–10% a year, with growth settling to 2.5% after 10 years. Those rates are ordinary choices, not measurements: across that range the assumed growth works out between 9% and 13%. This describes what the price implies — it is not a forecast, and not a view on whether the price is right.
Opinions from 57 analysts covering this company, as of . Their views, not this site's.
Of 57 analysts publishing on this company, 14 say strong buy, 29 say buy, 13 say hold and 1 say sell. Analysts are paid to publish a view and are wrong often; the split above says how much they agree with each other, which is the part a single headline rating hides.
Published by Finnhub. Analyst coverage skews towards larger companies and towards optimism — sell ratings are rare across the whole market, so a company with none is ordinary rather than endorsed.
Measured on and published about a week later — this is a fortnightly snapshot, not a live position.
About 1.9% of this company's shares have been borrowed and sold by people expecting to buy them back cheaper. That is a bet the price falls. Those people can be wrong, and when a heavily shorted share rises they have to buy it back, which pushes it up further.
Collected by FINRA from broker-dealers twice a month. It counts positions, not intentions, and some of it is hedging rather than a directional bet against the company.
Nothing in this section is a figure this company reported about itself. These are expectations and positions — what the price implies, what analysts have published, what short sellers are betting, and what large funds held at the last count. WylthIQ reports them; it does not endorse them, does not forecast prices, and takes no view on whether any of them will turn out to be right.
