Netflix Saw $12.6 Billion in Revenue in Q2 2026

Ad sales are becoming a major revenue driver as Netflix projects about $3 billion in 2026 ad revenue, helped by interest in live events.

  • Netflix reported Q2 revenue of $12.56 billion, a 13% increase year-over-year, with net profit rising 9% to $3.4 billion, driven by subscription fee increases and advertising growth.
  • Following a price hike in March, the second in just over a year, Netflix attributed growth to membership increases, higher subscription tiers, and accelerating advertising revenue.
  • Netflix remains on track to deliver approximately $3 billion in ads revenue this year, citing strong interest in live events including NFL games and expanded AI-powered tools across the advertising lifecycle.
  • Despite beating earnings expectations, Netflix's share price dropped 9% after forecasting third-quarter revenue of $12.86 billion, which falls short of analyst expectations of around $13 billion.
  • Beginning in 2027, Netflix will release annual 'What' and 'Watched' reports separately from quarterly earnings to emphasize primary financial metrics, while continuing to report title-by-title view hours.
