Netflix — Jul 16, 2026 release

For Q3, we expect revenue growth of 12% (or 11% F/X neutral) driven by growth in memberships, pricing, and ad revenue. We project an operating margin of 33.2% compared with 28.2% in the year ago quarter. Our 2026 outlook is consistent with our prior forecast: we are narrowing our revenue forecast to $51.0-$51.4B, which represents 13%-14% growth (~12% F/X neutral), driven by growth in memberships and pricing, and a projected rough doubling of our ads revenue to approximately $3 billion. We continue to anticipate an operating margin of 31.5% for 2026 both on a reported basis and based on F/X rates as of January 1, 2026 vs. 29.5% in 2025. Our forecast implies annual operating income growth of 20%+ for 2026. Our Focus As we outlined in our last letter, we have three main areas of focus: First, delivering more entertainment value. We want to win the most valuable moments of truth and thrill our members. We’ve used “engagement” as a shorthand for the value we deliver members. But, as we’ve developed an increasingly sophisticated understanding of how consumers ascribe value to our service, we know not all hours are equal. Time spent is just one aspect of strong engagement - quality and variety also matter. The key is to improve across all of those dimensions: quality, variety, and quantity. Quality is defined by how much our members enjoy and love a title. We work every day to raise the bar on our core series and film offering, which we have successfully done since we launched streaming in 2007.
