Netflix<\/a>‘s (NFLX) Q1 earnings last month signaled the end of its growth era, when the streaming giant reported its first significant subscription loss in more than a decade and announced plans to go after password-sharing. CEO Reed Hastings\u2019s comments about the company\u2019s “high market penetration,” when it includes all the account sharing, confirmed that the company\u2019s KPIs would change. With a smaller remaining addressable market, Netflix will shift its goals from new user acquisition to extracting more value from existing users.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In our equity research, Apptopia mobile download estimates correlated with Netflix’s Global Streaming Paid Net Additions, or net adds. Because net adds accounts for cancellations, you will see its correlation with mobile downloads (new installs only) broke last quarter.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n

To date, there is no way to estimate for app “deletions” to create a “net downloads” figure and make up the other half of the story. Instead, investors should consider the behavior of  a user who would delete or unsubscribe: less time spent using it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Looking at Apptopia’s worldwide user sessions estimates against Netflix’s Global Streaming Memberships, a clear correlation emerges, shown in the chart below. At its first decline (of .1%) in Q1 2022, memberships declined too.<\/p>\n\n\n

Netflix reports its approach to cracking down on password-sharers will likely be charging the primary account holders more money for subaccounts. In other words – making more revenue from existing members, instead of going after new memberships from account moochers. As long as this remains the case, Netflix new user signals and KPIs will be secondary to those that tell member engagement and retention, when it comes to predicting financial performance.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
