Netflix's financial statements show growing revenue, costs, and profits from 2014 to 2024 as the company expands globally. Revenue grew from $5.5 billion in 2014 to an estimated $60.5 billion in 2024 as the number of subscribers and average revenue per user increased. Operating income and net income also increased substantially over this period as Netflix invested heavily in original content production and development of its streaming platform. The company's cash from operations was negative from 2014 to 2019 as content spending exceeded income, but became positive in 2020 and beyond as membership growth and price increases covered costs.
