Netflix shares are up over 3% premarket, adding to its 2% gain on Thursday. The stock is up 37% this year.
The jump in subscribers suggests Netflix’s decision to end password sharing is gaining results.
The move to end password sharing means users who share an account outside the same home must pay an extra $7.99 a month to watch. In addition, the number of extra members customers could add to their account is limited, depending on the tier they pay for.
