Netflix Inc.NFLXBUYDec 05, 2025Stock price when the opinion was issued
As of Oct 16, 2026. Market Open.
He bought more, though it's a small position, because it traded down on a downgrade--but this was piling onto a stock that already had a tough time. He thinks for a trade, this will bounce. He though their last quarter was good, though the market didn't. With everybody so negative on Netflix, he thinks the bad news is already baked in.
He's buying more shares. Investors worry NFLX is losing share to YouTube and TokTok, while Paramount and Warners will likely merge. But NFLX still has the largest user base in the world and they make the most money per engagement. This allows them to add more content than their peers. They still grow revenues and profits. Still likes it.
(Note the short timeframe.) The market loved it for a while after the abandoned WBD deal. Then market started to focus on competition. But people aren't cancelling subscriptions; in fact, just the opposite. Trades at 20x 2027 PE for double-digit growth, terrific balance sheet. Boundless opportunities, sees so much upside.
Usually the acquiring company's stock does fall, so that's normal. There's going to be incredible regulatory scrutiny. He predicts the deal won't get done, it's too anti-competitive. The White House is already taking a dim view of it. If the 1 in 4 odds come through and the deal does happen, it would be incredible for NFLX. We're talking about a 100-year library of the best movies.
Last quarter, missed on some Brazilian tax issues and so it missed on earnings. Big competition. But Q3 had the best sales ever, revenue was up 17% YOY, raised guidance. Aiming to double revenues by 2030. Also trying to leverage generative AI. Growing ~20%, trading at ~27x. Still really good value.
