Netflix: Brief Summary

Netflix headquarters is located in Los Gatos, CA.  The company competes in the communications services sector—specifically, the entertainment industry.  At present, the organization employs approximately 9,400 individuals.  Netflix’s main revenue generator is the sale of monthly subscriptions to its movie streaming services.  A secondary revenue generator for the firm is the rental of DVDs.

From a financial perspective, Netflix’s market capitalization is about $242 billion as of August 2021.  Their beta is .75.  This indicates that the company’s stock is slightly less risky than the overall market.  Their stock price range for the last 52 weeks has been between $458.60 to $593.29.  In the last year, the company has not paid out dividends.  This indicates that the firm is still in an expansionary business cycle.

Netflix Financial Report Sources

“Netflix 2020 Company Analysis: Financial Statements and Financial Ratios: Defined, Discussed, and Analyzed for 5 Years” was written by Paul Borosky, MBA, owner of Quality Business Plan.  In this book, the author selected Netflix’s 2020 10k, 2017 10k annual report, 2016 10k annual report, 2018 10k annual report, and 2019 10k annual report as the basis for information gathering. 

 

 

Section 1: Netflix Income Statement Analyzed

This section provides a broad definition of an income statement and its importance.  I then discuss and define income statement line items, such as revenues, gross profits, etc., in detail.  After each line item is defined and discussed, I finally offer a summary analysis of Netflix’s significant income statement line item trends from 2016 to 2020.

Netflix Revenue Growth:

Netflix’s average annual revenue growth rate over the last five years was approximately 26.4%.  However, the firm’s growth rate has continuously declined over these five years.  Specifically, in 2018, the organization’s revenue growth was 35.1%.  As of 2021, the firm’s revenue growth was 18.8% from the previous year.  This decline indicates that the organization may enter a more mature business cycle phase.  From this, continued revenue declines should be expected.  From an investor’s perspective, this is a below-average trend.

Section 2: Netflix Balance Sheet Analyzed

I again reviewed each vital line item on Netflix’s balance sheet. I will define Netflix’s balance sheet line items, such as cash, property, plant and equipment, and liabilities, between 2016 and 2020. Next, I will summarize Netflix’s essential balance sheet line items.

Netflix Cash.

Netflix’s cash position was $2.8 billion in 2017.  Over the next four years, the organization’s cash position would increase substantially, ending 2021 at $6 billion.  The organization’s cash percentage was 24.1% compared to sales in 2017.  In 2021, the cash, as compared to the sales, dropped to 20.3%.  This shows that the firm is holding less cash than it did during this period.  From an investor’s perspective, this is a good trend.  This shows that the company is not sitting idle on access cash.

Section 3: Netflix Financial Ratios Analyzed

For this section, I have chosen several different financial ratios for Netflix from 2016 to 2020.  I start by defining each financial ratio.  Next, I supply the financial formula for calculating the specific ratio.  Finally, I offer a brief analysis of Netflix’s Important Financial ratios. 

Netflix Current Ratio

Netflix’s current ratio was 1.0 in 2017.  In the next several years, it will fall slightly to .95.  The reduction in the current ratio, primarily since the organization generates cash continuously, should be well received by investors.  It shows that the firm is able to cover its current liabilities with less cash and other current assets on hand.

Analyst Grade: A

Netflix Total Asset Turnover

Netflix’s total asset turnover was .61 in 2017.  Over the next several years, the firm’s total asset turnover would increase slightly to .67.  This trend indicates that the firm is doing a slightly better job using assets under management to generate revenues.  However, because of the slow growth in this area, investors should be wary when the organization increases its property, plant, and equipment category faster than sales.  From an investor’s perspective, this trend is above average.
