The facts that revenue still grew on a YoY basis along with a strong beat on earnings were not enough to offset the weak number of subscriber additions, especially as management only expects 1 million new subscribers in the undergoing quarter.</p><p><blockquote><b>Netflix</b>（纳斯达克股票代码：NFLX）股价在盘后交易中下跌11%，此前这家流媒体巨头在其第一季度收益报告中报告了用户数量的大幅下滑。收入仍同比增长以及盈利强劲增长的事实不足以抵消用户新增数量的疲软，特别是管理层预计本季度仅新增100万用户。</blockquote></p><p><h4>First-Quarter Figures</h4>Revenue amounted to $7.16 billion, slightly topping $7.13 billion expected, resulting in earnings per share of $3.75 that exceed the expected $2.97, as gathered by Refinitiv. Global paid net subscriber additions came at 3.98 million which is significantly below the 6.2 million expected, according to FactSet. This figure seems even more pessimistic compared to a quarterly record of 15.8 million new paying users it gathered during the first three months of 2020.</p><p><blockquote><h4>第一季度数据</h4>根据Refinitiv的统计，收入达71.6亿美元，略高于预期的71.3亿美元，每股收益为3.75美元，超过预期的2.97美元。FactSet的数据显示，全球付费净用户新增量为398万，远低于预期的620万。与2020年前三个月收集的1580万新付费用户的季度记录相比，这一数字似乎更加悲观。</blockquote></p><p>Still, the company's revenue grew 24% YoY and was in line with its beginning of quarter forecast. Netflix also delivered a strong beat on earnings compared to Street estimates. Operating income for the quarter came in at $1.96 billion which is more than double $958 million in the year-earlier period. Moreover, as content spending was lower, it resulted in a 27% operating margin which is an all-time high for the first quarter.</p><p><blockquote>尽管如此，该公司的收入同比增长24%，符合季度初的预测。与华尔街预期相比，Netflix的盈利也强劲增长。该季度营业收入为19.6亿美元，是去年同期9.58亿美元的两倍多。此外，由于内容支出较低，第一季度营业利润率为27%，创历史新高。</blockquote></p><p><h4>Netflix is losing subscribers</h4>Netflix believes that the shortfall subscriber numbers could be blamed on the ongoing pandemic or more precisely on its smaller pipeline of originals as COVID-19 restrictions forced the company to delay some of its big-name shows and films. It doesn't believe that competition from <b>Walt Disney Company</b>'s (NYSE:DIS) Disney+ and Hulu, <b>AT&T</b>'s (NYSE:T) HBO Max, <b>Apple</b>'s (NASDAQ:AAPL) Apple TV+ , <b>Amazon</b>'s (NASDAQ:AMZN) Prime Video and <b>Comcast Corporation</b>'s (NASDAQ:CMCSA) NBCUniversal's Peacock played a factor in the weak subscriber numbers. But the reality is that Netflix is facing an increasing set of competitors in the streaming space with HBO Max having reached 41 million U.S. subscribers two years ahead of schedule in January this year and Disney+ topping 100 million global subscribers as of early March, ballooning to about half of Netflix's 208 million worldwide subscribers only within a year-and-a-half of its launch.</p><p><blockquote><h4>Netflix正在失去订户</h4>Netflix认为，订户数量的短缺可能归咎于持续的疫情，或者更准确地说，归咎于其原创渠道较小，因为COVID-19的限制迫使该公司推迟了一些大牌节目和电影。它不相信来自<b>迪斯尼公司</b>（纽约证券交易所代码：DIS）Disney+和Hulu，<b>AT&T</b>（纽约证券交易所股票代码：T）HBO Max，<b>苹果</b>（纳斯达克：AAPL）苹果TV+，<b>亚马逊</b>（纳斯达克：AMZN）Prime Video和<b>康卡斯特公司</b>（纳斯达克：CMCSA）NBCUniversal的Peacock是订户数量疲软的一个因素。但现实情况是，Netflix在流媒体领域面临着越来越多的竞争对手，HBO Max在今年1月提前两年达到4100万美国订阅用户，Disney+截至3月初全球订阅用户突破1亿，在Netflix推出一年半内，全球订阅用户数量就达到了约一半。</blockquote></p><p><h4>The Key Is The Business Remains Healthy And That It Keeps Growing</h4>To respond its competitors, Netflix expects to spend more than $17 billion in cash on content this year. Production is up and running in nearly all of its major markets and While ramping up content spending more than 44% compared with $11.8 billion last year, Netflix is also trying to combat password sharing. Historically, it wasn't concerned about this issue as subscriber growth and stock price were easily offsetting concerns around lost revenue. But, things changed as Netflix has found itself amid intense ‘streaming wars'.</p><p><blockquote><h4>关键是业务保持健康并不断增长</h4>为了应对竞争对手，Netflix预计今年将在内容上花费超过170亿美元的现金。几乎所有主要市场的制作都已启动并运行，与去年的118亿美元相比，Netflix的内容支出增加了44%以上，同时也在努力打击密码共享。从历史上看，它并不担心这个问题，因为用户增长和股价很容易抵消对收入损失的担忧。但是，随着网飞发现自己陷入了激烈的“流媒体战争”，情况发生了变化。</blockquote></p><p>Netflix's board approved a buyback program to repurchase up to $5 billion in common stock, beginning in 2021 with no fixed expiration date. The program is expected to begin during the quarter.</p><p><blockquote>Netflix董事会批准了一项回购计划，从2021年开始回购最多50亿美元的普通股，没有固定的到期日。该计划预计将于本季度开始。</blockquote></p><p><h4>The Winner Of The Streaming Wars Is Sill Unknown</h4>While Netflix matures in terms of subscriber growth, its business has also become increasingly efficient from an operating standpoint, despite channeling billions into content creation. After posting its first full-year of positive free cash flow since 2011 last year, it believes it is \"very close to being sustainably\" free cash flow positive. As for 2021, it expects free cash flow to be around breakeven while no longer having to raise external financing for its day-to-day operations. In other words, it's been more than a year that streaming wars intensified and all players are investing heavily to be on the winning side even after the world successfully combats COVID-19.</p><p><blockquote><h4>流媒体战争的赢家仍然未知</h4>虽然Netflix在用户增长方面成熟，但从运营角度来看，尽管投入了数十亿美元用于内容创作，但其业务也变得越来越高效。在去年公布了自2011年以来的首次全年正自由现金流后，它认为自己“非常接近可持续”的正自由现金流。至于2021年，它预计自由现金流将接近盈亏平衡，同时不再需要为其日常运营筹集外部融资。换句话说，流媒体战争加剧已经一年多了，即使在世界成功抗击新冠肺炎之后，所有参与者都在大力投资以取得胜利。</blockquote></p><p><i>This article is not a press release and is contributed by a verified independent journalist for IAMNewswire.
