Netflix announced Monday that it now has more than 40 million subscribers worldwide, compared to less than 30 million just a year ago. A significant part of that growth has been its international presence, which grew to a total of 9.2 million subscribers in the company’s Q3 2013, from just 4.3 million a year ago.

At the same time, Netflix managed to remain profitable, with a net income of $32 million and revenue of $1.1 billion, despite still investing heavily into its international markets. For the company, this means that it will now pursue additional markets in 2014.
