The program is a relative success - Blockbuster is still in existence - but its financial situation look grim. According to the first quarter figures, after the company's net loss of 65.4 million U.S. dollars, compared with first quarter 2009 net income of 27.7 million U.S. dollars. With the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission's narrative recent application, the company reported that bankruptcy is a real possibility.
