Netflix share price volatility
Over the last 12 months, Netflix's shares have ranged in value from as little as US$75.01 up to US$134.115. A popular way to gauge a stock's volatility is its "beta".

This would suggest that Netflix's shares are more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent, relatively speaking, a higher risk (but potentially also market-beating returns).

Netflix share dividends
We're not expecting Netflix to pay a dividend over the next 12 months.
Have Netflix's shares ever split?
Netflix's shares were split on a 10:1 basis on 17 November 2025. So if you had owned 1 share the day before the split, the next day you would own 10 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Netflix shares - just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 90% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for Netflix shares which in turn could have impacted Netflix's share price.
