Netflix Q1 Revenue Rocks on Better-Than-Expected Member Growth

Netflix Q1 Revenue Rocks on Better-Than-Expected Member Growth

Who needs Warner Bros.? Netflix reported better-than-anticipated first quarter (2026) revenue thanks to surprisingly strong member growth, particularly in Japan. Better ad sales and higher subscription prices also kicked in. We did not get an updated subscriber total on Thursday. What we did get was a set of financials that topped expectations, both internal and external. For the March quarter, Netflix posted diluted earnings of $1.23 per share on $12.250 billion in revenue, up 16 percent from the prior year. Net income was $5.283 billion; operating income was nearly $4 billion (+18 percent). The company previously forecast its Q1 2016 revenue at $12.157 billion, and predicted $3.264 billion in profit, which would have diluted to 76 cents per share. The big beat at the bottom line was thanks in large part to a $2.8 billion termination fee Netflix received for not getting Warner Bros. (and paid out by Paramount). The result has cash flow fans salivating. Sometimes when you lose, you really win. “Warner Bros. would have been a nice accelerant for our strategy,” the …

Her focus is primarily on feminist epistemology and philosophy of science and conceptual and measurement issues in the social sciences. What excites you about philosophy? One of the most exciting things about philosophy is that it is a field in which you can explore almost anything. Even though much philosophy is exceedingly narrow, it doesn’t have to be! What is your favorite thing that you’ve written? I’d say that I have two favorite pieces. One is among my first publications, and the other is my most recent. The early one is “How Natural Can Ontology Be?” in Philosophy of Science, March 2000, and the recent one is “Objectivity and Measurement in Political Science,” in Philosophy of Science, 2026. These are papers for which the basic idea just came to me clearly, and although it took time to work out the details, I knew from the start what it was that I wanted to say. I still think that the main idea in …

Original NSYNC member speaks out about quitting boy band

Get the inside track from Roisin O’Connor with our free weekly music newsletter Now Hear This Get our free music newsletter Now Hear This Get our free music newsletter Now Hear This Original NSYNC member Jason Galasso has reflected on leaving the boy band before they hit the big time. Galasso was the original fifth member of the group, alongside Justin Timberlake, J.C. Chasez, Joey Fatone, and Chris Kirkpatrick. He left just before they signed a record contract with music mogul and convicted scam artist Lou Pearlman in 1995, and was later replaced by Lance Bass. The four remaining members went ahead with singing the deal with Pearlman. Galasso did leave a lasting impact on the group however: the name “NSYNC” was conceived by Timberlake’s mother Lynn Harless and incorporates the last letter of each member’s first name, including the “n” from Jason but not the “e” in Lance. Speaking in an upcoming episode of ID’s new docuseries Boy Band Confidential, Galasso said he decided not to sign the contract with Pearlman because: “At that …
