Netflix reports after the bell Thursday, ushering in the start of earnings season for Wall Street's biggest media and technology giants. Analysts expect the streaming behemoth to post earnings of $4.74 per share on about $9.53 billion in revenue, according to analysts polled by LSEG. The analyst regards upside to subscriber additions, commentary surrounding margin expansion and a reacceleration in revenue as key for investors. Jefferies analyst James Heaney expects these programs and a strong content slate position Netflix well for a second-quarter subscriber beat. Netflix has made strides within advertising, disclosing in May that there were 40 million active monthly users in the tier.
