Netflix Nightmare: Stock Craters, 200K Subscribers Loss, Predicts Losing 2 Million More This Year

 

https://breaking-news.ca/netflix-nightmare-stock-craters-200k-subscribers-loss-predicts-losing-2-million-more-this-year/

 

Netflix is facing what can only be described as a nightmare scenario as customers continue to abandon the far-left streaming entertainment giant in droves, threatening the company’s financial stability.

 

“It’s a glorious sight to behold seeing ObamaFlix sink like a stone.”

 

Shares of Netflix plummeted more than 20 percent in after-hours trading Tuesday after the streamer reported catastrophic results for the first quarter.

So far this year, Netflix shares are down a staggering 55 percent.

 

Netflix, which still has a production deal with Barack and Michelle Obama, said it lost 200,000 subscribers for the first quarter of the year — a huge miss for the company, which had expected to add 2.5 million subscribers.

 

Even more troublesome, leaders are forecasting Netflix will lose a whopping 2 million more subscribers this spring — potentially the largest quarterly loss of customers in its history.

 

The guidance paints a bleak financial outlook for Netflix, whose main revenue stream is paying customers.

 

In a letter to investors, Netflix blamed password sharing and increased competition from other streamers including Disney+ and Amazon Prime Video for what it euphemistically called “revenue growth headwinds.”

 

Netflix recently began cracking down in earnest on password sharing, which reportedly costs the company billions of dollars a year. Among its strategies is to charges subscribers who share their passwords with people outside of their households.

 

On Tuesday, Netflix made no reference to customers who have grown increasingly alienated by its woke content and close Democratic party affiliations. Netflix’s top executives backed the campaigns of President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris, as well as those of radical leftists like Los Angeles County District Attorney George Gascon, whose soft-on-crime policies have led to a spike in homicides and other violent crimes.

 

Netflix also failed to mention recent price hikes for all domestic subscribers, with its premium plan rising from $17.99 to $19.99 a month.

 

Last quarter, the company failed to meet subscriber expectations, prompting a mass sell-off in its stock.

Florida Senate passes bill that would end Disney self-governing status

Reuters April 20, 20225:40 PM EDT

 

April 20 (Reuters) - The Florida Senate on Wednesday passed a bill that would eliminate Walt Disney World's (DIS.N) self-governing status in response to the company's opposition to a new state law limiting discussion of LGBTQ issues in schools.

 

The Republican-led Senate voted 23 to 16 to do away with a special tax district that has allowed Walt Disney Co to self-govern the area of Orlando where its theme park complex has been sited since the late 1960s.

 

The bill still has to clear the House before it heads to Governor Ron DeSantis' desk. In a surprise move, DeSantis asked lawmakers to consider the legislation during a special session he called this week.

 

The law seeks to eliminate special tax districts including the Reedy Creek Improvement District in Orlando. That structure makes Disney, which is one of the state's largest private employers, and other landowners responsible for providing services such as fire fighting, power, water and roads. They in turn get relief from taxes and fees.

 

The governor, a Republican who is a potential candidate for his party's 2024 presidential nomination, wants to strike back at Disney for it opposition to a law that bans classroom instruction on sexual orientation and gender identity for students younger than about 9. DeSantis signed the legislation last month. read more

 

Disney came under fire for initially failing to take a public stand against the measure, which opponents say will harm the lesbian, gay, transgender and queer community.

 

Last month, the company condemned the legislation, saying it would pause all of its political donations in Florida. read more

 

Disney did not immediately respond to a request for comment on Wednesday. The change would go into effect in June 2023.
