What are Wall Street analysts saying about Netflix stock?

Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about Netflix stock:

1. According to Zacks Investment Research, "Netflix is expected to benefit from an expanding content portfolio despite increasing competition from the likes of YouTube, HBO, Amazon Prime video, Disney, Apple and Peacock. The company provided an optimistic third-quarter outlook and believes that the lost shows (Friends and The Office) will free up budget that can be spent on original content. The acquisition of Seinfeld’s streaming rights is a positive in this regard. Meanwhile, estimates have been stable ahead of the company’s third-quarter earnings release. Netflix has a record of positive earnings surprises in recent quarters. Nevertheless, high streaming content obligation and increased spending are expected to hurt cash flow generation. In fact, higher cash burn rate in 2019 is a major headwind. Netflix’s shares have underperformed the industry on a year-to-date basis." (10/11/2019)
2. Pivotal Research analysts commented, "We also remind investors that traditional media companies remain hampered in their ability to compete against NFLX given their current high monetization of the existing PayTV model (read: they are loath to create a product that drives consumers from traditional PayTV), not to mention media investor focus on short term margins. As NFLX gains scale, we expect further material price increases, while also still substantial increases in subscriber totals and eventually a rapid expansion in NFLX profitability, which we see reaching an ultimate ~35% EBITDA margin by ‘25 as investment in expanding content slows materially + new market launch/marketing costs dissipate + NFLX realizes scale efficiencies, all of which drive our ~$40 in EPS by ’25." (7/17/2019)
3. Rosenblatt Securities analysts commented, "We increase our price target to $370 driven by a higher implied target multiple and slightly higher international estimates. Pivoting to churn reduction content strategy as domestic scale reached and content competition intensifies. The primary driver of gross adds to SVOD services is first run, high quality original series. NFLX has been successful in this category, most recently by reporting 41M HH watching Stranger Things season 3 in the first five days of launch. However, binge watching drives the need to create even more content. In order to fill the time between original series NFLX has increasingly focused on individual originals like comedy specials, documentaries and movies." (7/10/2019)
4. Stifel Nicolaus analysts commented, "We outline our thoughts ahead of the quarter below. Key Points 1Q expectations: We forecast +1.61mm domestic paid net streaming subscriber additions in 1Q versus consensus of +1.60mm and the company’s forecast of +1.60mm. For international streaming, we estimate +7.35mm versus consensus of +7.32mm and guidance for +7.30mm. 1Q results follow 4Q’s impressive paid net add performance as the company added nearly +9mm paid net subscribers, above guidance by over +1mm (and above our pre-4Q guide expectations by approximately +4mm paid net adds). Our revenue growth estimate for 1Q is +21% y/y, in line with guidance of +21% y/y. The 1Q revenue deceleration is impacted by an approximate 600bp FX headwind (~$200mm), which should improve through the year based on current spot rates (the company faced a $183mm FX headwind in 4Q). We expect operating margins of 9.0% in 1Q, versus guidance of 8.9%." (4/8/2019)
