Read our privacy policy Netflix has reported a loss of about 970,000 subscribers in the last quarter — a “better-than-expected” result — according to the streaming giant which projected it could lose about two million users in the three months between April and July. Although the company’s stocks plummeted by about 37 per cent in April after the projection that it might lose nearly two million subscribers in the following quarter, the less severe loss reported for the period, combined with a better outlook of growth in the July-September period, boosted the streaming giant’s battered stocks up by seven per cent. Asked what drove the better-than-expected results, Netflix chief Reed Hastings said execution “really well on the content side”, with “lots of titles”, leading to “lots of vieweing”, slowly paid off. “We’re talking about you know losing one million instead of losing two million so you know our excitement is tempered,” the Netflix chief said.
