Netflix Announces New $25 Billion Stock Repurchase Program
Netflix announced a new stock repurchase program worth $25 billion, with no expiration date. This announcement comes after the company's stock price fell by more than 13% since April 16, due to poor earnings outlook and the impending departure of co-founder Reed Hastings. Additionally, there is an existing repurchase plan from December 2024 with $6.8 billion remaining unused.
