Framework
Main Branch
Does the deal create durable strategic value?
Level 1
Does the target close a capability or market gap?
Level 2
Target has 23% share in Southeast Asia — a region we have zero penetration in; fills geographic gap directly
Level 2
Tech stack overlap is 60%; integration complexity is moderate, not prohibitive
Level 1
Does the combined entity create a defensible position?
Level 2
Combined market share in core markets rises to 34% — crosses the threshold for network effects
Level 2
Risk: two credible competitors could counter-acquire remaining independents within 18 months — first-mover window is narrow
Main Branch
Do the returns justify the risk at $200M?
Level 1
What does the base-case IRR look like under conservative assumptions?
Level 2
Base-case IRR of 18% at 6× revenue multiple; synergy case reaches 24% if $12M in cost overlaps are realised
Level 2
Payback period: 4.2 years base, 3.1 years synergy — within board tolerance for strategic acquisitions
Level 1
Can we integrate without destroying the value we are buying?
Level 2
Key risk: target CEO and 3 of 5 senior leaders are likely to exit post-close — culture and retention plan required before signing
Level 2
Recommendation: proceed with conditional approval — resolve retention structure and confirm antitrust filing timeline before board vote

Sharpen Your Judgment

Get pressure-tested on which problems matter, which questions to ask, and how to prioritize

Netflix is spending $17B a year on content while Disney+, HBO Max, and Apple TV+ are flooding the market. They should cut spending and pivot to profitability before the streaming wars drain their cash.

Thinking
AssessThe candidate treats Netflix's $17B content spend as a discretionary cost to cut, ignoring that original content is the primary retention and acquisition mechanism in a market where competitors can license the same back-catalog.
LocateKey tension: capital allocation under competitive uncertainty. Disney has parks and merchandise to subsidize streaming losses; Apple has hardware ecosystem lock-in; HBO has Warner's library. Netflix has *only* content. Cutting their one lever has asymmetric downside.
DecideChallenge the cost-cutting framing by introducing the competitive moat lens -- force the candidate to evaluate second-order consequences of reduced spend when rivals are increasing theirs.
Cutting spend assumes the content library is a cost center. What if it's the *moat*? How does Netflix's subscriber retention change if their originals pipeline thins while three well-capitalized competitors are ramping theirs?
