On the 18th (local time), Netflix announced its third-quarter earnings, reporting revenue of $8.542 billion (approximately 11.6 trillion KRW), up 7.8% from the same period last year, and operating profit of $1.916 billion (approximately 2.6 trillion KRW), up 25%.
Net profit was $1.677 billion (approximately 2.3 trillion KRW), a 20% increase compared to $1.398 billion in the same period last year. Adjusted earnings per share were $3.73.
