Item 8.01 Other Events.
On April 22, 2026, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Netflix, Inc. (the “Company”) authorized the repurchase of an additional $25 billion of the Company’s common stock, in addition to the repurchase program authorized in December 2024, each without an expiration date. The Company had approximately $6.8 billion available for repurchase as of March 31, 2026 under the Company’s December 2024 share repurchase authorization. Stock repurchases may be effected through open market repurchases in compliance with Rule 10b-18 under the Exchange Act, including through the use of trading plans intended to qualify under Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act, privately-negotiated transactions, accelerated stock repurchase plans, block purchases, or other similar purchase techniques and in such amounts as management deems appropriate. We are not obligated to repurchase any specific number of shares, and the timing and actual number of shares repurchased will depend on a variety of factors, including our stock price, general economic, business and market conditions, and alternative investment opportunities. The Company may discontinue repurchases without notice at any time.
