Netflix reported fourth-quarter earnings that fell short of expectations but saw revenue exceed estimates thanks to cost-cutting measures and a strong lineup of shows that boosted subscriber numbers. The company’s shares surged 8% in after-hours trading following the report.

Earnings per share were $2.11 on revenue of $8.83 billion, topping analyst expectations of $2.21 per share on revenue of $8.72 billion. Netflix added 13.12 million new subscribers, far surpassing estimates and boosting its operating margin to 17%.
