Recently disappointing. Price now below 200-day MA, which has started to roll over. It's still the leader. Going back to its roots of creating content, and now getting into live sports. Trades at 24.5x forward PE, and ~23% growth. Valuation makes a lot of sense, but technical structure a bit soft. His team is evaluating.
Stan Wong
Clear global leader in high-quality video content streaming. Pricing power in the face of competition, best-in-class customer retention. He expects revenue to grow at double-digit pace, margins should expand.
Aggressive investment in movies and shows, but increasingly podcasts and live events. Capitalizing on digital ads. Earnings should grow at 22% compound pace for next 3 years. Trades ~22x PE, good tradeoff between value and growth. Share buybacks. No dividend.
Brian Madden
He has a core holding on either side of 3.5% -- he trims on the way up, buys back on the way down and writes options around it. Price for another (but smaller) M&A deal is ongoing.
His 12-month price target is $116.33. Buy a third here ~$88, another third ~$84-85, and then ~$80.

Premium contentIn the last quarter, the company reported 0.56 USD per share, beating the 0.55 USD estimate by 1.41%. Revenue for the same period reached 12.05 B USD, despite the estimate of 11.97 B USD. For the next quarter, analysts expect 0.76 USD in earnings per share and 12.18 B USD in revenue. Social media mentions are up 1,575% in the past 24h.
The advertising business is very good and they are cracking down on passwords. It has been beaten up because of its pursuit of Warner Brothers. It didn't go through so the stock has started recovering. It is revisiting and adding new content, and building out its sports contracts. He sees earning growth at 20%.
Stan WongShe added more Netflix and is slowly adding to it. She only recently started buying it for the first time, because it was always too expensive in PE. They're not buying Warners, so their story is much simpler. There's 20% earnings growth, 12-14% revenue group as operating margins expand and resume buybacks. Trades at a not-cheap 29x forward vs. 35x historic. Is still well below highs.
They will stream MLB's opening night. He sold this before NFLX backed out of the Warners deal and shares jumped. He will get back into this. Live sports will attract more customers, efficiently. During the World Baseball Classic, NFLX streamed it and attracted 31 million viewers in Japan.

NFLX has emerged as essentially the clear winner in the streaming space. A few years ago, this statement was not as clear, as competitors like DIS, AMZN, were potential peers to NFLX in the space, but it is now clear that NFLX has a strong moat around its platform. Sales and earnings growth are expected to trend higher, analyst estimates are rising, and margins are expanding. It generates strong free cash flow and mostly repurchases shares with its cash flows. It trades at a reasonable valuation of 31X forward earnings. We feel that in a consumer slowdown scenario, cutting streaming platforms is one of the first places that consumers look at, and this is one of the biggest risks for the name, but over a long period of time, we think this name has a lot of potential.
With the WBD bros deal we think NFLX becomes a powerhouse in the streaming space, without the WBD deal, we think it can continue to do well, but it will need to refocus on organic growth and balance sheet strength. Short-term the stock may fluctuate if the deal goes through, but we think it is positive for the stock long-term.
