Yet another report has surfaced in the UK suggesting Netlix is under paying local corporate taxes.

The Cardiff-based Companies House, the United Kingdom's registrar of companies, said that Netflix only paid £3.2 million ($4.37 million) in UK corporation tax in 2019 against revenue of £120 million ($164 million). Netflix declared declared pre-tax profits of £13 million ($17.76 million) in 2019, the group added. The data was originally published by The Guardian.

It’s the second time in recent months that Netflix has come under fire for allegedly underpaying taxes in Britain. 

In November, local advocacy group Tax Watch said that Netflix reported 2018 revenue of just $57 million in the UK, while the org tallied its actual revenue at closer to $1.1 billion. 

“As Netflix continues to grow in the U.K. and in other international markets we want our corporate structure to reflect this footprint,” a Netflix spokesman told The Guardian at the time. “So from next year, revenue generated in the UK will be recognized in the U.K., and we will pay corporate income tax accordingly.”

Netflix’s UK accounting is complicated. The company operates in the region through a holding company called Netflix Services UK, which also also provides services to Netherlands-based Netflix International.

And Netflix’s UK business isn’t just about streaming video to homes. As Variety noted, Netflix is investing heavily in U.K. production, and is now spending as much as $1 billion in this operation, producing successful shows like The Crown and Sex Education in the region. 

The Netflix tax data comes as the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD), an intergovernmental group, is considering proposals to reduce tax avoidance by multinational companies.

The possible election victory of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris in has worldwide implications, but for the cable industry, it all comes down to dollars and cents.

While a Democratic victory usually means greater scrutiny on the regulatory side — and a new Federal Communications Commission, which would oversee the rules — for businesses, Biden could seek to implement a corporate tax increase. Cable companies, long averse to tax payments, are mostly regular taxpayers now. And that could mean a Biden presidency could eat into profits.

Bernstein media analyst Peter Supino did an analysis in mid-October of the potential impact of a Democratic victory on the cable business, determining that a 7% increase in the corporate tax rate, to 28% from 21%, would mean a 10% decline in profits for operators with mostly U.S.-based operations like Comcast, Charter Communications and Altice USA.

Comcast has been a regular federal taxpayer for years and Charter is expected to become one next year. Altice USA hasn’t had to pay federal taxes yet, according to Supino, but is expected to join its peers in paying Uncle Sam in 2021. AT&T is the wild card, the analyst wrote, “as they have had wildly different cash tax payments relative to expenses in the past.”

Still, the overall impact isn’t expected to be too great.

Shares in the top publicly traded distribution stocks were up even as the outcome of the election was awash in uncertainty early on Nov. 4. By late that afternoon, Charter was up 7.4%, Cable One had rose 7%, Altice USA was up 5.6% and Comcast was up 2.7%.

“Our coverage companies are well-practiced in tax optimization strategies, so we expect certain company cash flows to be impacted less than accounting earnings,” Supino wrote, noting that after the 2016 election, companies with higher proportions of U.S. income outperformed others for a period of weeks. He didn’t expect as dramatic a decline in a Biden administration. 

Other potential tax changes — an alternative minimum tax of 15% on companies with accounting profits of $100 million or higher, raising the tax rate on foreign income of U.S. companies to 21% and imposing a 10% surtax on companies that post jobs overseas to sell goods to Americans  (which will mainly apply to companies with call centers) — could all have an impact. 

Supino noted that although Comcast and AT&T have the biggest international revenue streams, they are small enough that the tax impact will be insignificant. 

“Because a Biden victory in 2020 would be less surprising than was the Trump victory in 2016, and because the proposed change in corporate tax rates is smaller than was the Trump proposal, we believe that the underperformance of the same stocks after a potential Democratic victory in 2020 would be less sharp,” Supino wrote.

On the programming side, MoffettNathanson media analyst Michael Nathanson wrote that the biggest threat of a Biden presidency is to Fox Corp., parent of Fox News Channel, which stands to lose the most if Trump starts his own rival news network. In a research note, Nathanson estimated that a Trump Network could poach about 20% of FNC’s news audience and capture 10% of the total news market. That could cost Fox News around $225 million in lost ad revenue and about $200 million in EBITDA.

“Given the singular financial importance of Fox News to Fox Corp., the fear of a new rival competing with Fox News has created a new, bearish narrative that appears to be restraining Fox’s equity momentum,” Nathanson wrote.
