Company Description

OperationsNetflix operates as one operating segment. Its revenues are primarily derived from monthly membership fees for services related to streaming content to its members Almost all of the company's sales were generated from its streaming revenues. It offers a variety of streaming membership plans, the price of which varies by country and the features of the plan. The pricing on its plans ranged from the US dollar equivalent of $2 to $24 per month. The company expects that from time to time the prices of its membership plans in each country may change and may test other plan and price variations.

Financial PerformanceCompany's revenue in fiscal 2020 was $25.0 billion. Consolidated revenues for the year ended December 31, 2020 increased 24% as compared to the year ended December 31, 2019. The increase in our consolidated revenues was due to the 24% growth in average paying memberships and a 1% increase in average monthly revenue per paying membership. Net income for 2020 increased to $2.8 billion compared from the prior year with $1.9 billion. Cash held by the company at the end of fiscal 2020 increased to $8.2 billion compared from the prior year with $5.0 billion. Cash provided by operations and financing activities were $2.4 billion and $1.2 billion, respectively. Cash used for investing activities was $505.4 million, mainly for purchases of property and equipment.

Geographic ReachThe Los Gatos, California-based Netflix has moved beyond the borders of the US to reach more than 190 countries. Netflix has also created and licensed content for local markets across the globe.

Mergers and AcquisitionsIn 2020, Netflix Inc. has completed its acquisition of Hollywood's iconic Egyptian Theatre from Los Angeles nonprofit American Cinematheque. "The collaboration will allow the American Cinematheque to expand the scope and diversity of programming, while continuing the nonprofit's mission to celebrate the experience of cinema as a moving art form," Netflix said in a statement. Terms of the deal were not disclosed.

Sales and MarketingNetflix has spent increasing amounts of money on advertising, $1,447 million, $1,879 million, and $1,808 million for the FY 2020, 2019, and 2018, respectively. It offers a month-long free trial at sign-up to first-time subscribers, a key marketing strategy for the company.

StrategyThe company's core strategy is to grow its streaming membership business globally within the parameters of its operating margin target. Netflix is continuously improving its members' experience by expanding its content with a focus on a programming mix of content that delights members and attracts new members. In addition, the company is continuously enhancing its user interface and extending its streaming service to more internet-connected screens. Netflix' members can download a selection of titles for offline viewing.

Company History

Company BackgroundMarc Randolph and Reed Hastings founded the DVD-by-mail service in 1997 as a challenge to Blockbuster Video. (Hastings said he got the idea after being hit with a $40 late fee from Blockbuster for failing to return his copy of Apollo 13, which was overdue by about a month.) The company launched its streaming service in 2007, placing a big (and eventually winning) bet on the popularity of accessing entertainment content via subscriptions over the internet. Netflix released its first original TV series, House of Cards, in 2013. The critically-acclaimed show was also a hit with audiences, putting the streaming company on the map as a producer of high quality content.
