On Tuesday, January 21st, Netflix, Inc. (NFLX) released spectacular Q4 2024 earnings, proving once again that their are the premier streaming service for original content.

If you are a Netflix investor, here’s what you should be excited about:

Top-line quarterly revenue came in at $10.25 billion, up 16% year-over-year. The company said that its programing, including new seasons of Squid Game and Bridgerton as well as live sporting events, was the key to its 4th quarter success. 

Netflix surpassed 300 million paid memberships during the quarter, up over 15% year-over-year, adding a record 19 million subscribers in Q4. Even more positive was the fact that many of those new subscribers signed up for the company’s cheaper, ad-supported tier. Advertising revenue doubled this past year and the company feels confident that they can continue to grow that revenue stream at a solid pace. 

For the full year 2025, Netflix raised its revenue expectations to a range of $43.5 billion to $44.5 billion, around $500 million higher than its previous forecast.

The company also boosted its share repurchase program by $15 billion, bringing its total authorization to $17.1 billion. 

As we’ve seen in the past, when publicly traded companies have strong revenue growth and an impressive share buy-back program, that can only mean one thing: Netflix’s share price will double within 5 years or less.
